Christians don’t win culture wars by yelling louder. We win by building better families, stronger communities, and more honest institutions. Salt and light work quietly, one day at a time, and God blesses the fruit. One good example at a time.

Homeschooling isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about teaching your kids how to find them. Public school trains them to wait for someone to provide the answer. We’re training them to figure it out themselves. One creates dependency. The other creates capability.

I love the nostriches 💜

Strategy’s $STRC is a solid product. Fixed dividend, downside protection, and for investors who want exposure without holding bitcoin directly, it works. But let’s be clear: it’s not bitcoin. You’re holding preferred shares in a COMPANY that holds bitcoin. I respect what Saylor’s doing, he’s orange pilling institutions and showing the world how bitcoin works as a treasury reserve. $STRC is for people who prefer the comfort of a traditional finance wrapping. But just remember: bitcoin is a bearer asset. You can hold it yourself. No Strategy required. If $STRC fits your portfolio, use it. But don’t confuse it with ownership. The goal is still sovereignty.

I don’t need my kids to be rich. I need them to be ungovernable. I need them to know how to think, not what to think. To question authority, not blindly submit to it. To build wealth that can’t be confiscated, diluted, or voted away by people who don’t have their best interests at heart. You can’t teach that in a system designed to produce compliance. So we opted out.

Traditional portfolio theory tells you to own a little of everything: stocks, bonds, real estate, commodities. Sounds smart until you realize you’re diversified across different expressions of the same centralized system. When that system breaks, and it will, none of that diversification will save you. You’re not spreading risk. You’re concentrating it and then gaslit to think it’s safe.

The government doesn’t want you wealthy. It wants you comfortable enough to not revolt and desperate enough to keep working. That’s the sweet spot. Too poor and you’re a problem. Too rich and you’re independent. The entire system is designed to keep you in the middle: earning, spending, taxing, repeating. Financial sovereignty isn’t about getting rich. It’s about getting free.

The average American works January through April just to pay taxes. Then works until August to cover inflation. By the time they’re actually earning for themselves, half the year is gone. And we call this freedom. We’ve normalized a system where the majority of your labor goes to funding a government that devalues what’s left. If that doesn’t radicalize you, you’re not paying attention.
