Honoring Fathers: See You At The Water

Jun 21, 2026    Pastor Kevin P. Horath

Father's Day is more than celebrating dads—it's about honoring the legacy faithful men leave behind. Using a bench built by Pastor Kevin's grandfather, a cedar chest built by his father, and cedar hangers given to every man in attendance, this message explores what it means to build something that lasts.


Psalm 92 reminds us that the righteous flourish like a palm tree and grow like a cedar in Lebanon. Palm trees bend but don't break, teaching us that godly fathers endure life's storms. Cedars grow deep, teaching us that faithfulness, character, and legacy are built slowly over time.


A bench creates a place of rest. A cedar chest protects what matters. A cedar hanger quietly carries weight and leaves behind a lingering fragrance. In the same way, fathers are called to create stability, protect what is valuable, and leave behind a faith that will outlive them.


Ultimately, the true legacy is not possessions, but faith passed from one generation to the next. Wood can weather. Cedar can age. Stone can crack. But a faith planted in the house of the Lord can outlive us all.
