We explore the critical question "Are you in survival mode?" and examine how this mindset prevents us from making meaningful sacrifices for others. Two kingdoms exist—one visible and tangible, the other invisible yet equally real—and understanding this helps explain why followers of Christ often feel like outsiders in this world.

• Zig Ziglar's principle: "You can have everything in life that you want if you help enough other people get what they want"
• Story of an actor who lives modestly while donating over 90% of his income to help the underprivileged
• Challenging question: What's the biggest sacrifice you've ever made for someone outside your family?
• The parable of the talents teaches that good stewardship requires investment, not self-protection
• The rich young ruler couldn't give away his possessions despite his religious devotion—a warning for believers today
• Survival mode keeps us accumulating resources while avoiding sacrifice
