From podcast producer Leslie Thompson: When The Bulletin moderator Clarissa Moll mentioned that travel writer Rick Steves had a new memoir coming out, we both knew we had to have him on the podcast. His travel shows evoke deep nostalgia for both of us.
I had no idea, though, that the conversation would be so profound and gospel informed. Perhaps I wasn’t paying attention all those years, but Rick is a devout Lutheran, and his Christian faith is important to his travel.
There’s so much to be gained from his perspective. Listening to the conversation, I was struck by the depth to which God calls us to go in this world he has made. It was a convicting conversation but a necessary one.

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."
