In this episode of Wake Up, Look Up, Pastor Zach explores a proposal for mandatory national service and asks: does forced service build character, or just compliance? He affirms the biblical value of serving others but warns that heart transformation can’t be mandated by government—it must be formed in the home. Rather than relying on policy to shape our kids, we’re called to raise them with the heart of Jesus, who came not to be served, but to serve.
