New Hope Cumberland Presbyterian Church, Madisonville Tennessee
Youth Sermon by Pastor Dr. David Koopman
Challenge Coin
“Do you know what this is? Probably not! It’s called an Vet to Vet Tennessee Challenge Coin and this one is offered to Veterans in Tennessee. Now the purpose of a challenge coin is to serve as a reminder to pray for and support others, in this case other Veterans.
The Bible tells us to love and support others, to pray for them, to help them when they are in need. Perhaps we should have some token to remind us, maybe even a challenge coin.
Let us remember that our Veterans are very special people with very special needs, needs that we can help them meet if we can rise to the challenge.”

The challenge coin, which many of them carry, helps to remind them and should remind us that we are all connected. By the love of our Lord, the liberty that has long 
been defended by our Veterans, and the sense of belonging we all should feel.
Whenever you see a coin of any kind remember the lesson of the challenge coin.”
The New Hope Cumberland Presbyterian Church is a Veteran/Military Friendly Congregation. We are so proud of the church and its Pastor for providing the youth lessons about God, Country and Veterans.
Vet to Vet Tennessee recommends that other Pastors to consider this message of prayer, support and remembrance of our US heroes. To learn more about the history of the challenge coin or to order coins please click here.
