Incredible John, that you have your finger on the material!

Have it scanned OCR and then you will have it in digital for 
yourself, and you can send it to everyone who wants it.

>Jim,
>     I believe the article you refer to is entitled, "Toward a New 
>Other-Worldliness," by H. Richard Niebuhr.  It was published in 
>"Theology Today" April 1944, Vol. 1, No. 1.  "Theology Today" is 
>still being published, as far as I know, which tells you something 
>about the significance of this article, being virtually their first 
>one.
>     I have a copy of the article, and use it quite often in my 
>teaching.  It was reprinted with permission by the Ecumenical 
>Institute in our little piece called "Foundational Studies: The 
>Other World" as part of our Other World materials.  If you have you 
>old Other World materials you may even have it.  It was a packet of 
>8 articles reproduced and stapled together with our yellow front and 
>back covers. 
>     I don't have a fax machine here at work, but would be happy to 
>fax it to you from a public fax office on my way home if no one else 
>gets you one in the meantime. 
>     The other articles are also good, although the one you mention 
>is the bedrock of them all since it is the one that gave us 
>the metaphor of the other world in the first place.  The others 
>include three by Rudolf Otto, two by Joseph Campbell and one each by 
>Soren Kierkegaard and Friedrich Gogarten.
