The Command The Church Forgets | Preston Morrison

What God does in one generation was never meant to stop there. In “Where Are You With The Next Generation? | The Command The Church Forgets,” we look at Psalm 78 and are reminded of a responsibility God has given His people from generation to generation: to make His faithfulness known to those coming behind us. The stories of what God has done, the truth of His Word, and a life of obedience aren't meant to end with us—they're meant to be intentionally passed down. God's plan for the future has everything to do with how we steward today. This isn't only a responsibility for parents, pastors, or those who serve in Next Gen ministry. Every believer has a part to play. Our lives carry stories of God's faithfulness that another generation needs to hear, and our investment today can help shape what they believe about God tomorrow. In this sermon, you'll discover: Who Scripture identifies as the next generation Why investing in the next generation is a responsibility shared by the whole Church How telling the stories of God's faithfulness gives another generation a reason to put their hope in Him Why we're called to do more than teach truth—we're called to model obedience and prepare them for the days ahead What Scripture warns can happen when one generation fails to pass its faith to the next Psalm 78 gives us a vision bigger than ourselves: every generation putting its hope in God because each generation was faithful to do its part with the next. But Scripture also gives us a sobering picture of what happens when that responsibility is neglected. Judges 2 tells of a generation that grew up not knowing the Lord or remembering what He had done. It's a reminder that faithfulness cannot be assumed from one generation to the next—it must be intentionally taught, modeled, and passed down. This is a call for the whole Church to recognize what is at stake. The future of the Church isn't something we simply wait for; we're helping shape it right now through our prayers, our stories, our example, our service, and our willingness to invest. What God has done in your life isn't only for you. Someone coming behind you needs to hear about the God you've seen provide, restore, redeem, and remain faithful. We have been entrusted with a story worth telling, a faith worth passing down, and a generation worth investing in. CONNECT WITH US!
