Craven commemorates Memorial Day by looking at the life and sacrifice of a young Marine who was killed in Iraq. He highlights some of the Judeo-Christian virtues exemplified by this young Marine's life and brings home the point that God's people must teach the Judeo-Christian ethic to our children.
Here is a quote from Craven's commentary:
"It is this attitude of self-sacrifice for the greater good or “other-centeredness” that is absolutely essential to the strength and longevity of any society. If we as a nation continue to neglect the cultivation of true virtue among young people and instead immerse them in a culture which only encourages their most sensate and base desires, we will, in time, see such noble men and women disappear. Simply put, there will be none willing to make the ultimate sacrifice in defense of “ideals” for they will not care about such things because they were not taught too."
