Happy Sunday,
We’re making an unscheduled appearance in your inbox (sorry for not calling first) to share an exciting update:
The Pour Over just crossed 1 million subscribers!
That’s amazing for so many reasons, not least because we’re a news company… that thinks you should consume less news.
It’s not the only thing we do differently. We write with:
-
Brevity: so that you can learn what happened and then move on
-
Levity: to remind you many things in the news don’t ultimately matter
-
Dignity: so we view every name in the headlines as an image bearer of God
TPO sticks to these opposite-the-industry editorial principles because we deeply believe that staying informed doesn’t need to make us angry and anxious; it is possible to know what’s going on in the world while reflecting the peace and hope of Christ.
You’re proof of that. And you’re not alone.
On Friday, we launched a massive weeklong giveaway of Chick-fil-A (1+ referral = $5 gift card) and embroidered TPO sweatshirts (10+ referrals). We thought it’d take longer to reach 1M… but now it’s just a celebration of crossing the milestone early!
(Note: referrals count once the new subscriber confirms their email)
Thank you so much for reading and sharing anxiety-and-anger-free, Christ-first news!
Jason Woodruff
Founder | The Pour Over
