Physical health, money in the bank, education, friendships, religious practice: What makes for a good life? This week, we published new data from a longitudinal study on human flourishing. |
|
What does that data say? "Some countries with the greatest wealth and longevity may have achieved these goods at the cost of a fulfilling life," wrote the researchers. One of their most striking findings "is the strong association between religious identity and flourishing." |

The latest installment of our limited series on the Satanic Panic takes on the author of the harrowing (and completely fabricated) memoir Satan’s Underground—and the broader cultural forces behind the frenzy. |

"[There’s] an appetite to say, ‘If they’re capable of this, they must be capable of that.’ A desire on some part to embellish, to take an evil that’s real and make it even more profoundly and undeniably evil, to heighten the contrasts, to convince other people." | Listen here. |

Kate Lucky, senior editor, engagement and culture: Josh Garells has a new album in the works, Peace to All Who Enter Here, Vol. 2. I’m a big fan of the hymn arrangements on volume 1. When my husband broke both of his wrists in a bike accident a few years ago, I listened to the album on repeat in the hospital while I waited for him to come out of surgery. |

Even amid scandals, cultural shifts, and declining institutional trust, we at Christianity Today recognize the beauty of Christ’s church. In this issue, you’ll read of the various biblical metaphors for the church, and of the faithfulness of Japanese pastors. You’ll hear how one British podcaster is rethinking apologetics, and Collin Hansen’s hope for evangelical institutions two years after Tim Keller’s death. You’ll be reminded of the power of the Resurrection, and how the church is both more fragile and much stronger than we think from editor in chief Russell Moore. This Lent and Easter season, may you take great courage in Jesus’ words in Matthew 16:18—"I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it." |
