In the December 19 issue, LinC explores the topic of homelessness. The holiday season is a time of giving and a time when we turn our attention to those in need, including the homeless. But the problems we become aware of around Christmas don’t disappear when the lights come down. Rather homeless persons—and others whose lives are a constant struggle—need our compassion and attention year round. Key Scriptures: Lamentations 5:1-5, 21; Luke 2:4-7; Acts 3:1-10; 1 John 3:17-18. In the December 26 issue, LinC takes a look at a new movie release. We are all expected to be merry during the holiday season. But for some, Christmastime brings overwhelming stress; for others, depression. The new movie, A Series of Unfortunate Events, reminds us that life is not a storybook and that things can go wrong even when we expect everything to be perfect. The Bible reminds us that God is with us no matter what.
