Monday, June 1, 2026 • Today's Principle: Submission

As U.S. strikes on Iran mark a significant escalation and leaders across the globe make unilateral calls with no clear accountability above themselves, today's episode drives home the principle of Submission — the conviction that a man who refuses to answer to God's authority can't genuinely lead anyone. Carlos works through Romans 13 and the Republic framework to show that submission isn't weakness: it's the foundation that makes real leadership possible, starting in private before the sun comes up and flowing outward into the household and public square.

Scripture: Romans 13:1-2; Proverbs 11:2

Today's Charge: Open Scripture before anything else today, let it govern a specific decision in front of you, and bring that same submitted posture to the leadership of your household this week.
