In the August 7 issue, LinC reminds us that Tiger Woods recently won the British Open, his second major championship this year and tenth for his career. Many feel that Tiger has a good chance of breaking Jack Nicklaus’s all-time record of eighteen majors, but breaking the record will require several more years of practice, focus, and commitment. The same can be said for living a life of Christian discipleship. Key Scriptures: Genesis 41:25-38 50:19-20; Proverbs 16:3, 9; Luke 14:25-33. In the August 14 issue, LinC takes a look at how the summer heat (especially this year!) tends to drain our energy, leaving us tired and unenthusiastic. While the “dog days” of summer wear us out mentally and physically, many Christians sometimes find themselves in the doldrums spiritually. How can we energize ourselves when our souls are exhausted?
