Editorial intro: (Re-)embracing creation, incarceration, and words on variety of subjects

This issue of Review & Expositor opens with “First Words” and closes with “Words about books,” as is usual for the journal. It does, however, deviate from our usual format of focusing the central section on a single topic, with “thematic words” and “expository words.” The central section of this double-length issue is actually a three-in-one with two topically focused sections, “Words about (Re-)Embracing Creation” and “Words about Incarceration,” followed by a third section of “Words on a Variety of Topics.” The team of three that edited this volume are pleased to present this collection of articles, eclectic in its scope, but unified in its thoughtful scholarship.
