First Things just reported that Richard John Neuhaus, longtime editor of First Things and former Missouri Synod Lutheran, died in Christ this morning.  As a former Missourian, he always had an interesting perspective for those of us within the fold.  While I hardly agreed with everything he said, I found him insightful and almost always worth reading.  We will miss him.
