Wednesday, May 6, 2026 • Today's Principle: Sacrifice

The ADL's 2025 report reveals antisemitic violence is getting deadlier even as raw incident numbers ease — and today's episode names the male silence behind that pattern as a failure of sacrifice. Drawing from Esther 4 and 1 John 3:16, Carlos calls men to stop calculating the cost of standing with vulnerable neighbors and start paying it. The charge is specific: find the real, local opportunity to stand this week and take it, regardless of what it costs in comfort or reputation.

Scripture: Esther 4:13-14; 1 John 3:16

Today's Charge: Stand visibly between a vulnerable neighbor and a real threat this week — in conversation, in public, or in your household — at a cost to yourself.
