Christian Artists And Pastors React To Death Of Kobe Bryant

On Sunday, many of us were reminded that life can be here and then gone in an instant when NBA superstar Kobe Bryant died in a helicopter crash with his 13-year-old daughter, Gianna. Kobe and Gianna were two of the nine people who passed away in the accident. The event devasted the sports community and rippled across the entire world, reminding everyone how fragile and precious life truly is.

Use today to hug your loved ones, reconcile with those you might have hurt or been hurt by, and spread the love of Christ boldly. It very well might be your last chance to do so here on Earth.

Many Christian artists and speakers are speaking out about the tragedy and offering their condolences. Their posts are all different, but the sentiment is the same: the most powerful thing we can do is pray.

Please join us in praying for the loved ones of those who were lost in Sunday’s helicopter crash. The pain they’re experiencing is unfathomable, but we know our Heavenly Father saves those crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18).

The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. -Psalm 34:18
