Christian Standard's managing editor, Jim Nieman (right) spread all 68 color proof pages of the November issue on the counter for the second time in two weeks today. We began our final checks before the issue goes to the printer tomorrow. Mark Haas, Standard's creative director (left), has served as our art director for more than a year, and he's been a huge help in upgrading the look and design of the magazine. He was there with us today, making recommendations for color and suggesting other tweaks to the layout. We realized when we gathered around the counter that we'd all chosen red shirts today, and everyone walking noticed it too!
The November issue is all about missions, and we'll be distributing it on the chairs at the International Conference on Missions in Indianapolis next month. But we won't be wearing red shirts!
