Ruminate Magazine

For those of you who haven't heard, Rock and Sling, a journal that shares a very similar mission to RUMINATE, has had to cease publication because of a shortage of funds. Here at RUMINATE, this was very sad news and hit close to home. (Yes, there is many a day when our entirely volunteer staff isn't sure if we can keep going, or if the printing bills can be paid).

Rock and Sling is trying to raise the funds to begin publishing in the near future, and we seriously hope this will happen and that our readers might consider helping. It has been our honor to publish poetry from Rock and Sling editor Laurie Klein in our first issue, and over the past two years we have been encouraged and lifted up by the folks at R&S as well as moved and inspired by the quality publication they produce. For those of you who have been R&S readers, or even for those of you who haven't yet read the journal, check out their website to read a letter from the editor and consider making a donation or ordering the CD of the Rock and Sling collection. Every little bit will help, and you won't be disappointed with their publication. 

And I must add that with over 600+ literary magazines being currently published today, it blows my mind that only four Christian literary magazines currently "exist"... and have a tenuous existence at that. It is our hope that publications like RUMINATE and Rock and Sling, Image and Relief can continue to provide a much needed outlet for artists and readers to engage the arts and their faith, but I am reminded of just how much we depend upon the help of our supporters. If you are a subscriber or a donor to any of these fine publications--thank you! This is quite a humble business and I am never beyond shouting for joy every time we get a new subscription order or that $20 donation. And I am sure the folks at Rock and Sling feel the same way.
