There is a new lay magazine on Gnosticism that popped up in my mailbox today. It is the premier issue and it can easily be obtained from Amazon HERE. Miguel Connor's interview with John Turner is in this issue, along with a piece on the Gospel of Judas and other articles of interest. I am happy to see that the Judas gospel is already being discussed seriously in the larger community because this gospel has much to teach us about early Christian self-identity and the existence of Sethian Christianity in the second century.

Was this from you?

Hi April,

Yes I'm the editor of The Gnostic. I was thinking that it might be nice to include Miguel Conner's recent interview with you in the next issue. If you're agreeable I can talk to Miguel.

Oh. Well many thanks. I think it is a great start for your magazine. I'm delighted to see that you have done this, and I'm happy to do whatever I can to help you out.

I contributed the Gospel of Judas translation and article. I'd love to hear your comments on my translation and annotations, Dr DeConick.
