In the May 28 issue, LinC reminds us that May 29 is Memorial Day, a day for honoring those who have sacrificed their lives in the service of our country. Recently some people visiting Washington, D.C. have been disrespectful to the monuments of those who died defending our country. LinC explores the history of Memorial Day and looks at ways we can honor and respect the sacrifices others have made. Key Scriptures are: Ezekiel 37:1-14; Matthew 5:9; and 1 John 3:16-18. In the June 4 issue, LinC takes a look at the MTV reality show Yo Mamma that pits inner-city trash-talkers against each other. While verbal battles are becoming more mainstreamed in pop culture, it's important that youth consider their responsibility of bearing a sincere and consistent Christian witness. Next week's LinC helps youth to recognize the power their words have on others and on their Christian witness.
