The Power of Sacrifice

In this episode of Blessed + Bossed Up, we continue our deep dive into Leadership as an Identity by Crawford Loritts, focusing on Chapter 13: The Power of Sacrifice. Tatum opens up about her honest reaction to this chapter, including the parts she strongly disagrees with. She explores the nuance and context often missing from blanket statements about sacrifice in leadership, especially for entrepreneurs and leaders who also value their families and boundaries.

Key points include:

• What sacrificial leadership really looks like in modern-day life and business
• The importance of honest self-reflection and spiritual maturity
• How to love and serve those you lead—professionally, personally, and spiritually
• Why boundaries, discernment, and communion with God are key to applying biblical principles in leadership
• The role of family and the tension between ministry, business, and home life

Whether you're a business owner, ministry leader, or managing your home, this episode is full of practical wisdom and honest reflection about what it means to lead like Christ—sacrificially, intentionally, and with love.

Key Scriptures:

• 2 Timothy 4:6-7
• John 12:24-25
• John 3:30

Reflective Questions:

• Are you willing to sacrifice yourself to serve those who serve you?
• How can you show those you lead that you genuinely care for them?
• Are there areas of your life where you're resisting surrender?
• Have you made family an idol, or are you trying to lead without sacrificing what matters most?
