On this Operation: Trailhead reflection, Aaron sits on the back porch and draws lessons from the sparrows—birds that don’t complain, don’t compare, and don’t manufacture struggle. In a world overflowing with comfort, we often create “hardship” in our minds instead of choosing the kind of real challenges that grow us.

Released on the anniversary of 9/11 and in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, this episode pauses to honor those who have walked through unasked-for hardship—our military, first responders, and their families—and to remember Charlie’s fearless determination to face hard conversations with faith-filled fire.

This is a call to reset your depth perception, embrace discomfort, and intentionally step into the hard things that make you stronger.
