Men have given more for less

John Piper tells the story of Iwo Jima in his book Don’t Waste Your Life. 1,688 men died planting the flag and taking the hill.

His observation is this:

⭐️ Those men were noble, and they had a cause.

⭐️ They went “all in” on the cause, even giving their lives for it.

⭐️ Sinful men rise in war, yet we serve a greater king and a bigger cause and have exponential reasons to step up.
