Radix focuses on the most critical issues facing the church: the interface of faith and culture. Our articles explore art, literature, education, economics, families, health and media from thoughtful Christian perspectives. We believe the renewal of the church is the basis for transforming our culture and produce a magazine that encourages evangelism, discipleship, and renewal of the Christian mind.
