From Asia editor Isabel Ong: The stories we publish at CT aren’t shaped and formed in a silo. Editors and staff writers regularly gather via Zoom to throw out ideas, give feedback, or share links to CT archive articles on the topic at hand.
The roundtable onunreached people groups came about through one such editorial brainstorming session, when I raised a question that eventually helped to frame the published piece: Does this term still hold weight today, or is it obsolete?
The roundtable format is meant to be robust and diverse, a space where Christians around the world may have differing views on an issue and discuss it constructively with each other and with our readers. As we begin this new year, I hope these authors’ perspectives provide you with interesting new dimensions to appreciate about the term and creative insights on what reaching the "unreached" can look like in your neighborhoods and cities.

As we enter the holiday season, we consider how the places to which we belong shape us—and how we can be the face of welcome in a broken world. In this issue, you’ll read about how a monastery on Patmos offers quiet in a world of noise and, from Ann Voskamp, how God’s will is a place to find home. Read about modern missions terminology in our roundtable feature and about an astrophysicist’s thoughts on the Incarnation. Be sure to linger over Andy Olsen’s reported feature "An American Deportation" as we consider Christian responses to immigration policies. May we practice hospitality wherever we find ourselves.
