Sabin Howard’s remarkable sculpture "A Soldier’s Journey" - an incredible, visceral homage to the reality of war. Today is the perfect day to reflect on its message. The unveiling of the epic 38-figure, 58'-long bronze relief sculpture was at sunset of Sept. 13th during a "First Illumination" ceremony at the Nat'l WWI Memorial in Washington, D.C. to the fanfare of 20 buglers dressed in authentic WWI uniforms. I don't have many regrets in this life; missing this event is one. We owe the brave men and women who sacrifice everything, from war-to-war more honor and respect than they are shown. The only thing that deserves more honor and appreciation is the sacrifice Christ made for our salvation. Please take time out of your weekend to at least acknowledge why you enjoy a 3-day weekend this weekend. Had it not been for the selfless individuals who bore our freedoms and our dreams for the future on their backs, the world would be a much different, much darker place.
