TLC’s Letter to the Editor Policy

Send your thoughts and ideas, reactions and responses to letters@livingchurch.org. The editor will collect them, curate them and publish a sampling in Letters to the Editor online. If the content of letters still seems fresh when a print issue is being finalized, we will include some letters there in digested form as well.

We cannot publish everything. We will do our best to represent the full range of letters received. Here are the rules:

  • Letters to the editor should be submitted to letters@livingchurch.org.
  • Letters to the editor should be limited to 500 words.
  • Letters must include your name, city, state. We will publish your name and city, state, but not your full address. We do not publish anonymous letters.
  • If the letter refers to a specific article published at www.livingchurch.org, please note the headline or the link of the article.
  • Please include a daytime telephone number where we can reach you. We will not publish your phone number. It may be used for verification.
  • We can’t guarantee publication of all letters, but you can be assured that your submission will receive careful consideration.
  • Published letters may be edited for length and style.
  • Letters containing misinformation or misleading content without correct sourcing will not be published.
