In this thought-provoking episode of our podcast, we delve deep into the concept of sacrifice, a principle that challenges us to put aside personal gain for a higher purpose. We explore the significant reasons why people often hesitate to make sacrifices, including the fear of loss, a prevalent sense of self-centeredness, and a lack of perceived benefit. These barriers reveal why sacrifice can feel daunting and why it’s often resisted in a culture that emphasizes immediate gratification and personal success.

Drawing inspiration from Matthew 16:24, where Jesus tells us, "Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me," this episode explores the call to sacrifice in the Christian walk. 

Join us as we unpack the complexities of sacrifice and discover how embracing this practice can lead to deeper fulfillment and purpose in our lives. Whether it’s small daily acts or significant life-altering decisions, learn how the act of sacrifice can enrich our relationships, enhance our communities, and deepen our faith.
