Greater Love Has No One Than This

This Memorial Day weekend, our hearts are filled with deep gratitude as we pause to remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.

In John 15:13, Jesus reminds us of the profound nature of sacrifice: "Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends."

Every liberty we enjoy today was bought with a price. As we gather with family, fire up the grill, or enjoy a long weekend, let’s make sure our hearts stay anchored in remembrance. Let's honor the fallen by living lives worthy of the freedom they died to protect, and let's lift up the families who still carry the heavy weight of their absence.
