Moving Forward After the Loss of a Legend: Seven Things We Need to Do Now

1. Grieve, but not as those without hope

Scripture:

“The Lord is near to the brokenhearted And saves those who are crushed in spirit.” — Psalm 34:18 (NKJV)

2. Hold fast to truth and legacy

Scripture:

“Remembering your leaders, those who spoke to you the word of God; considering the outcome of their conduct, and imitate their faith.” — Hebrews 13:7 (ESV)

3. Seek justice and accountability, with compassion

Scripture:

“Learn to do good; seek justice, correct oppression; bring justice to the fatherless, plead the widow’s cause.” — Isaiah 1:17 (ESV)

4. Pray, for comfort, wisdom, and peace

Scripture:

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” — Philippians 4:6-7 (ESV)

5. Unite, don’t polarize

Scripture:

“For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.” — Matthew 18:20 (ESV)

6. Carry the torch: continue the mission

Scripture:

“Let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith…” — Hebrews 12:1-2a (ESV)

7. Set your hope not in this life, but in eternity

Scripture:

“For our citizenship is in heaven, from which also we eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body to be like His glorious body…” — Philippians 3:20-21 (ESV)

• Let us mourn together, not in isolation; let us remember, celebrate, but not idolize.

• Let us press for justice, but not allow anger to consume us.

• Let us pray, serve, engage, love, speak courageously in charity.

• Let us carry forward what was good, following God’s call for our lives.

• Let us anchor ourselves in hope beyond what we see now, trusting God holds every tear.
