December 2012
From the President:
 What a year we have had! I have so appreciated the outpouring of prayer and support that we have received from you in these last few months, and I have been proud of how The King’s College community has responded to the challenges we have faced. Simply stated, you have been a blessing to us and I want to say thank you!
Last week we shared some exciting news by email and on our website regarding a matching gift of up to $3 million. When you make your first gift or you renew a gift to King's before the end of the year, a generous donor will match your gift, making your contribution twice as powerful. It's a great time to support King's students!
Your gift will be doubled - and so will your impact for students
Any amount is eligible to be matched
Give before lawmakers cap the charitable tax deduction in 2013
As you read through the stories below you'll see that the education our students receive at King's is providing them the opportunity to go forward into key institutions in New York and the world. Our faculty too are active in achieving our mission.
You have supported us with your prayers, time, and finances in the past. As we approach the end of the year will you consider making a tax-deductible donation to support the mission of The King’s College? Your gift will have a powerful impact and be greatly appreciated as we end 2012 and look forward to another year in New York City.
Merry Christmas,
Andy Mills, President

In a Crisis, Liberty is Love

Judicial Usurpation: Then and Now
 In a new article published inNational Review, Dr. David L. Tubbs and Dr. Robert P. George argue that the Supreme Court of the United States of America should stay out of defining marriage.

President of the Economy
What is the end, or purpose, of government? Is it to deliver jobs, housing, and comfort to its citizens?
