Spiritual Amnesia: Why We Forget God’s Goodness

July 26, 2026

Do you ever suffer from spiritual amnesia, forgetting all the amazing ways God has shown up for you in the past? In Deuteronomy 16, God actually used the Passover meal to help His people remember exactly where He found them and miraculously rescued them. More than just a history lesson, the practice of biblical remembrance points directly to Jesus and the ultimate freedom He purchased for us on the cross. Take time today to reflect on God’s faithfulness in your own story, and let it fuel your hope for whatever you are facing today!
