Number 6 (2006)

Dear Readers:

Welcome to the sixth issue of Growth: The Journal of the Association for Christians in Student Development. In this issue you will find three feature articles, one review essay, and nine reviews of recent books.

We want to acknowledge several persons for their assistance in making this issue possible. Special thanks go to Steve Christensen for his service as Layout and Design Editor and to Todd Ream who serves as Book Review Editor. These two individuals have put in many long hours in helping the Editorial Board to put this issue together and without their assistance this publication would not have been possible.

We especially want to encourage you, the reader, to consider submitting manuscripts for the next issue of Growth, which will be published in the spring of 2007. Publication guidelines are included in this issue near the end of the journal. We are particularly interested in receiving manuscripts presenting original or basic research and encourage anyone who has recently completed a graduate thesis or dissertation to submit a manuscript based on your work.

We thank you for your support for Growth: The Journal of the Association for Christians in Student Development. We trust that you will enjoy and be stretched by what you find in these pages.

Sincerely,
Skip Trudeau, Co-Editor
Tim Herrmann, Co-Editor
