In the July 24 issue, LinC takes a look at abortion, a subject that often divides the church. When Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor announced her retirement recently, many political observers and analysts asked: How will this affect the abortion issue? Now LinC asks the question: Can Christians who disagree about this issue find any common ground? Key Scriptures: Genesis 13:1-9; Psalm 139:13-18; Acts 15:1-21; Galatians 2:11-14. In the July 31 issue, LinC takes a look at Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, which got off to a fast start, selling nearly 9 million copies its first day. Big numbers mean big expectations, and fans hope the book doesn’t disappoint. Many youth also know the difficultyof living up to lofty expectations. But we can take comfort in knowing that if we put our greatest expectations in God’s promises, we will not be disappointed.
