"First Things" is a monthly ecumenical journal concerned with the creation of a "religiously informed public philosophy for the ordering of society." [ [http://www.firstthings.com/article.php3?id_article=9 First Things Mission Statement] ]

Father Richard John Neuhaus, a prominent American Catholic thinker and essayist, is its founder and editor in chief. He started the journal after his connection with the Rockford Institute was severed. [ [http://www.firstthings.com/article.php3?id_article=497 FIRST THINGS: A Journal of Religion, Culture, and Public Life ] ]

The journal is interreligious and non-partisan, representing a broad intellectual tradition of conservative Christian critique of contemporary society. It is published monthly, except for bi-monthly issues covering June/July and August/September.

Contributors represent Catholic, Orthodox, Jewish, and Protestant viewpoints. Among the Catholic intellectuals represented are Mary Ann Glendon, George Weigel, Carol Iannone, Robert P. George, Robert Sirico, and Michael Novak. Its Editorial Board includes neo-conservative writer Midge Decter, Protestant ethicist Gilbert Meilaender, Jewish ethicist David Novak, and Timothy George, dean of the Beeson Divinity School.
