In the November 28 issue, LinC reminds us that many families will spend Thanksgiving Day huddled around the television watching football. And many players, when they make big plays, will point to the sky or say a prayer of thanks. But Thanksgiving is more than a holiday or a response to our successes: It is a way of life. Key Scriptures are: Leviticus 19:9-10; Psalm 106:1-12, 40-48; Luke 18:9-14; and Acts 26:28-29. In the December 5 issue, LinC takes a look at the hit new TV drama Lost. The show depicts a diverse mix of castaways who must work together, combining their individual gifts, in order to stay alive. Christians are called to do exactly the same so that the body of Christ will continue to thrive.
