Sacrifice | The Price of Strength You've Been Avoiding
from The Republic Briefing · host Carlos Reyes III
Tuesday, May 26, 2026 • Today's Principle: Sacrifice NATO's spending surge looks strong on paper — but analysts warn the real capability to fight isn't there. Today's episode uses that gap to examine the principle of Sacrifice: the difference between performing leadership and actually paying what it costs. Drawing from Mark 8:34 and Hebrews 12:11, Carlos charges men to stop deferring the hard thing in their marriages, their households, and their churches — before the gap between posture and reality becomes impossible to close. Scripture: Mark 8:34; Hebrews 12:11 Today's Charge: Identify the one place this week where you've been wearing the title of leader without paying the price, and do the costly thing you've been deferring. — 📖 Men of the Republic — the book behind the briefing.
