Make your Memorial Day sermon a tribute to those who have sacrificed everything for this country’s freedom in light of Christ's sacrifice that was sufficient to cover the sins of all mankind. The King of sacrifices is able to come alongside those who have laid down their lives for others, and the same King is able to comfort those who have lost dearly beloved families to the tragedy of war. Share this hope with your congregation this Lord's Day.
