After six seasons the popular television drama Lost will conclude later this month with a three-hour series finale. Amid the plot twists and character development that have made the show a hit are the recurring themes of brokenness and redemption. These themes also are central in our Christian story. All of us are broken by sin, but God—through Christ, the Holy Spirit, and the church—is always busy doing the work of redemption. Key Scriptures: Isaiah 6; John 21:1-19; Acts 9:1-22. The Wordz Project is a new film about a project in which hip-hop artists rap and speak the words of Jesus from Scripture. The movie is part of a larger effort involving musicians from various genres putting Jesus' words to song. Inspired by The Wordz Project, LinC takes a look at the words of Jesus: how we are blessed through Jesus' teachings, how Jesus' words nourish our souls, and how we experience mercy and forgiveness through Jesus' sermons and parables.
