Memorial Day 2021: The Bravest Boehme
Of the ten official holidays on the American calendar, some commemorate secular events and others point to spiritual realities.
Memorial Day stands out as our most spiritual secular holiday because our remembrance of those who died for our freedom mirrors the death of Jesus Christ for our eternal salvation.
In both cases, God wants never to forget John 15:13: “There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.”
Remember Jesus every day. Remember our soldiers on Memorial Day and others.
My uncle, Richard Boehme, gave his life for his country in World War II. He is the bravest Boehme.
This is his heroic story.
What We’ve Prayed For for 46 Years
When abortion became legal nationwide on January 22, 1973, I was oblivious to Roe v. Wade–being a naive 19 year-old, living in New Zealand and looking for God’s plan for my life.
Soon thereafter, I became educated and burdened. I began to pray against the abortion holocaust and participated in marches in Washington, D.C.–some with upwards of 100,000 in attendance.
Yet, abortion remained the law of the land for decades despite an estimated 60 million babies being slaughtered on the altars of the Sexual Revolution.
That may be about to change.
It’s what we’ve prayed for for 46 years.
Honoring My Father and Mother–Every Day at Four PM
I recently celebrated a special 10th anniversary–one I never planned in my wildest dreams.
I’ve always been a big vision kind of guy, giving my time and energy to teaching and preaching for Jesus, promoting spiritual revival, and mobilizing God’s people for world evangelism.
But ten years ago, I made a commitment just as important in God’s economy as changing nations.
I chose to honor my parents–every day at 4 p.m.
