CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
“Now Thomas, one of the twelve, called the Twin, was not with them when Jesus came. So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord.” But he said to them, “Unless I see in his hands the mark of the nails, and place my finger into the mark of the nails, and place my hand into his side, I will never believe.” Eight days later, his disciples were inside again, and Thomas was with them. Although the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.” Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here, and see my hands; and put out your hand, and place it in my side. Do not disbelieve, but believe.” Thomas answered him, “My Lord and my God!””
‭‭John‬ ‭20:24-28‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Now that the Michael Jordan documentary is coming out, a common occurrence is that young people that were arguing that Lebron James (or some other current player) was the greatest of all time is watching the highlights of Jordan’s career and turns to the older basketball fans to say, “yeah Jordan is the greatest of all time”. Seeing Jordan’s highlights has brought peace to the young and old basketball fans.

Seeing Jesus’ wounds brings peace to all. It is evidence that God loves us. In this time when there is much unrest in the world. Reflect on this truth that we have peace through Jesus.

Leave no man behind and leave no man where you found him. The COT at the end of the F3 workout is the most important part. I was reminded of this by Kick-flip last week at JUCO.
Lets review the three Fs
Fitness- encourage each other and keep each other accountable
‘for while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come. ‘ 1 Timothy 4:8 https://my.bible.com/bible/59/1TI.4.8
Fellowship- Look for opportunities to connect with guys outside of workouts. Look to connect.
Faith- Remind each other of God’s love, and then reflect God’s character to the people around you as you live your life. Be a high impact man (HIM).
