May 25, 2026 · 50 min

May 25th, 2026 we celebrate Memorial Day, but Memorial Day is about far more than a long weekend.In this powerful expositional sermon from Joshua 4, Pastor Jon Groves explains why God commanded Israel to build memorial stones after crossing the Jordan River and why remembrance is essential for both nations and believers. Memorials are not ultimately about the object—they are about the story attached to it.This message explores:Why God commands remembranceThe spiritual danger of forgetfulnessHow memorials preserve gratitude and reverenceWhy future generations must hear the stories of God’s faithfulnessThe connection between national blessing and honoring GodHow Christians should think biblically about Memorial Day, patriotism, sacrifice, and worship📖 Main Text: Joshua 4:1–7 (ESV)At Honor Church, we believe:“Memorials exist to magnify the mighty hand of God.”If this message encouraged you, share it with someone and subscribe for more biblical preaching, expositional sermons, Christian worldview teaching, and practical discipleship content.📍Honor Church109 E Crystal Lake AveLake Mary, FL🌐 Visit: Honor Church📱 Follow Pastor Jon Groves:Instagram: @JonLGrovesYouTube: Jon Groves YouTube
