We Are Marshall tells the true story of the aftermath of one of the worst tragedies in American sports history: a 1970 plane crash that killed most of the Marshall University football team and coaching staff. But the story is not about suffering only; it is a story about moving on—honoring the past while looking toward the future. In the December 31 issue of LinC, we’ll look at how God enables us and empowers us to carry on in the wake of trials and tragedies. Key Scriptures: Ezekiel 37:1-14; Luke 15:11-24; John 20:19-23; Romans 8:31-39. Next Sunday (Epiphany Sunday), many churches will commemorate the visit of the wise men, who offered gifts to the Christ Child. These travelers gave Jesus the best of what they had. How can we follow their example? What gifts has the Holy Spirit bestowed upon us, and how can we practice spiritual re-gifting by offering those gifts back to Christ?
