News & Stories

Dear Outlook readers,

We are thrilled to share that we launched the Presbyterian Outlook’s new website this week! We hope you’ll visit and experience what we’ve been working on over the past seven months.

Although we’re still fine-tuning it, you’ll notice the new website has a brand new look and is easier to read and navigate. The process of searching for old articles, stories authors have contributed, and our liturgical and educational resources has also been much improved. The functionality of the website as a whole is now more in line with what publishers are using today.

Happy reading,

Rose Schrott Taylor
Outlook interim associate editor
