Episode Summary

We take that uncomfortable question and turn it into a compass for purpose, unpacking what it means to live as a “living sacrifice” where intent matters more than optics and love costs something real. Drawing from Romans 12, we explore how transformation beats imitation, why joy outlasts happiness, and how motive turns generosity from a seasonal stunt into a daily habit that actually helps people.Along the way, we contrast a peacetime mindset with a wartime mindset—the former drifts into comfort and self-preservation, the latter stays alert to the quiet emergencies around us. We talk frankly about privilege, perspective, and the seductive myth that comfort equals control. Then we ground the conversation in stories that sting and inspire, including seventeen-year-old Medal of Honor recipient Jack Lucas on Iwo Jima and a medic’s final moments that redefine courage and compassion. These moments aren’t just history; they’re mirrors for the choices we make when nobody’s clapping.This episode is equal parts conviction and coaching.
