CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
As men, we were created to work.  Since God tasked Adam to tend the Garden of Eden this has been our purpose.  Proverbs 24 reminds us of the pitfalls of laziness.  We can drum up all kinds of excuses as to why those dishes can wait or the laundry can hold off or why you just need a few more hours sleep.  Sleep is blessing, a gift from God but not something we should value so much we live for it, or idolize it. Work hard at everything you do!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Matthew 18:12, The Parable of The Lost Sheep.  Be willing to leave the 99 and go after the lost 1.  Be a good shepherd.  This is Christ-like, a great leadership trait, and ultimately pleasing to God.  It’s also part of our F3 philosophy of leaving no man behind.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Today was my earthly birthday but I wanted to share what was on my mind, my spiritual birthday, the day I was baptized, November 14, 2010. My earthly birthday doesnt even compare in importance.  I came to Christ late in life, a result of a string of different events, having a Godly wife, surrounding myself with Godly men and mentors, and reading the Gospel. I know Chrostians who have never been baptized, usually they claim it doesn’t save (true, faith does), they just have never gotten around to it, or ask why it matters.  i shared two crucial reasons why baptism is really importantt and does matter: 1) Jesus commands it in Matthew 28 (need I say more?) and 2) it is a symbol of our unity with him in his death and resurrection, a public profession that you are on his team.  if you are a believer and have never been baptized, what are you waiting for?
MOLESKIN:
Some guys really got into the pickle pounders.  Disturbing.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Focused on one leadership trait we can learn from Christ’s example: Integrity.  Maintain it. Leaders who lose it, lose the trust of those being led. Constantly study your heart and compare actions to God’s instruction and Christ’s example.  A great resource from pastor John Piper: desiringgod.org

Kudos to Spotter for making the Pre-Ruck.

B.O.M.B.S. OVER JUCO

THE SCENE: Low 40’s and gloomy – perfect weather to continually cut the wrong wire and set off a bunch of B.O.M.B.S. – No man was left the same this morning.
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:
Cherry Pickers, Tennessee Rocking Chair, SSHs, Tempo Squats
THA-THANG:

  1. Mosey to Parking Lot – Route 66 style grinder: At each Pole (6 total) perform exercises.  First 3 poles – 15 Merkins, 15 Plank Jacks, 15 4ct Mountain Climbers.  Second 3 poles – 10 Merkins, 10 Plank Jacks, 15 Bobby Hurley’s.
  2. Mosey to the JUCO Gym (Coupon Pile behind creepy loading dock) and battle-buddy up.  Perform B.O.M.B.S. workout – each team performs 100 Burpees, 150 Overhead Tri-Extensions, 200 Merkins, 250 BBSs, 300 Squats.  While one partner is doing exercise, other performs weighted run up and around concrete border wall WITH a coupon.  Had to modify a tad because of time.  Most teams made it about halfway thru the BBSs before we trimmed the numbers down to 100 reps for each exercise.  No one made it to squats, so when everyone thought we were done – PAX did 50 squats in civilian cadence.
  3. Mosey back to AO, JAILBREAK for the last 150 yards of so.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
1) Be thankful to the Lord for what he has blessed you with.  2) Concentrate this week on turning from your own interests and paying attention to those people in your inner circle and their happiness, specifically, what you can do for them that might not only increase their joy, but might open doors to sharing the Gospel.  “The noblest art is that of making others happy.” – P.T. Barnum

MOLESKIN:
Bartman had a house full of young men over the weekend and 5 of them accepted Christ (after a full blown background investigation and polygraph by Bartman).  Now THAT is something to be joyful about!
