Sacrifice | The Cost of Standards No One Wanted to Pay
from The Republic Briefing · host Carlos Reyes III
Sunday, April 26, 2026 • Today's Principle: Sacrifice The Army's new gender-neutral Combat Field Test is more than a military policy update — it's a decade-long lesson in what happens when men in authority refuse to pay the cost of holding a standard. Today's episode drives into the principle of Sacrifice from Men of the Republic Chapter 6, using 1 Corinthians 15:58 to ground the call to be immovable. The charge demands that every man identify the standard he's been lowering in his home, his church, or his public square — and hold it this week, whatever it costs. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:58 Today's Charge: Identify the standard you've been quietly lowering in your household or sphere of authority and hold it explicitly this week, even at personal cost. — 📖 Men of the Republic — the book behind the briefing.
