What Is Gleanings?

At Christianity Today, we’re constantly tracking important developments in the church and the world. Often we use our network of reporters around the world (and for that, visit our main site). But we also monitor other news outlets, bloggers, newsmakers’ social media feeds, and countless other information streams. Gleanings compiles the most urgent and interesting items we’ve found, explains why you need to know about them, and gives you the background you need to understand them. It’s our snapshot of what God is doing in the world, hour by hour.

Let's Hear About God!

After Sen. Rick Santorum graciously implored his supporters to cheer for Sen.-Elect Bob Casey Jr., he began his concession speech by thanking God. Which CNN promptly broke away from. Does anyone know what he went on to say?

Based on the glowing Santorum pre-obituaries written by David Brooks and Peggy Noonan, echoed on CNN tonight by Bill Bennett and J.C. Watts, I think we can expect Santorum to remain a prominent voice in the debate about religion and politics.
