Our esteemed Daily Briefing readers sent us their "behind the story" about where they read the newsletter, so you all can have an idea of the other readers who join you every day. We can’t share all the stories we received, but we’ll share some excerpts. |

"When the CT Daily Briefing hits my inbox, I take a quick break from work and read through it at my desk. I typically read the whole newsletter, but I especially love the Behind the Story section. I enjoy hearing about how different pieces were acquired and hearing from the folks who wrote the pieces. I remember being astounded when I read that Bonnie Kristian wrote her response to Stephen Miller’s tirade on power in just four hours. I also enjoy hearing about the editorial process (i.e., what was cut, how many iterations the article went through, etc.). I also love the history section at the end. Y’all do some real deep cuts in that section, which I enjoy learning about." —Jonathon, Louisville, Kentucky |

"I am usually reading CT’s Daily Briefing over coffee in the morning and look forward to its arrival in my inbox. But here’s a different twist for you: CT in its magazine format changed the direction of my life through a full-page ad which ran in CT in about 1973. While working in advertising for a large company, I had been wondering if there were any advertising agencies that served Christian organizations by helping them do all that God had called them to do. I had not heard of any until the CT ad ran. It was an answer to prayer and ultimately meant my being hired by that agency. Significantly, it meant a life-changing move from Montreal, Canada, to Southern California and, ultimately, US citizenship. God is good all the time, isn’t He?" —David Clayton, Laguna Woods, California |

What does it mean to be a neighbor? While we often think about our neighbors as those we know and befriend, the gospel expands our view, redefining a neighbor as anyone who acts with mercy. Being a neighbor means showing up and staying present, even when it is difficult or uncomfortable. |

April 17, 1708: Ambrose, Archbishop of Moscow from 1768-1771 is born.

In this issue of Christianity Today and in this season of the Christian year, we explore the bookends of life: birth and death. You’ll read Karen Swallow Prior’s essay on childlessness and Kara Bettis Carvalho’s overview of reproductive technologies. Haleluya Hadero reports on artificially intelligent griefbots, and Kristy Etheridge discusses physician-assisted suicide. There is much work to be done to promote life. We talk with Fleming Rutledge about the Crucifixion, knowing that while suffering lasts for a season, Jesus has triumphed over death through his death. This Lenten and Easter season, may these words be a companion as you consider how you might bring life in the spaces you inhabit. |
