What if the risky sacrifice you're avoiding is the very thing that could save your most important relationships?Ben returns to Flatirons with a raw message about drifting in faith, hitting 40, and feeling stuck in a life that looks successful on the outside but is crumbling underneath. Through the story of Zacchaeus, a man hated, wealthy, and desperate, we’re challenged to consider: what’s keeping us from going out on a limb? The 35-Day Challenge isn’t about self-help or behavior management. It’s about choosing bold, relational sacrifices that lead to healing and freedom.Zacchaeus didn’t play it safe, and neither did Jesus.Ben reminds us that conviction is a gift, shame is a weapon, and grace is a choice. Jesus went out on a limb for us—literally. Now the invitation is ours: Will we risk reputation, comfort, or pride to restore what’s broken? This week, it’s not about giving up coffee or Instagram. It’s about making the calls, owning the secrets, showing up for the people who matter, and trusting Jesus to meet us out on that limb.
