Fitness. Fellowship. Faith.

MARY: Nope
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Convergence in 51 weeks
COT: P3 shared what was on his heart.
THE THANG: Ruck to neighborhood behind Marco’s
MARY: Clayton Loop
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
COT: We discussed a quote from Jon Tyson that he said to his son. “I’m not trying to help you be a good man, I’m trying to help you be good at being a man.”
We listed characteristics that men have and discussed what a man is. There is all kinds of talk of this in the world and on the internet right now. My challenge is to seek being as Spellcheck said, a Godly man first. Seek direction and insight in God’s word first.
Who is good? What is good? What is a man? The world and its wisdom is complicated but yet easy. Following Jesus is simple, but a lot of times hard.
THE THANG:
Spur…
When choosing leaders, experience matters
The best players do not always make the best coaches
The virtuous leader encourages other men to lead early and often
Always second guess your first response.
Most often our second response should be an apology.
Don’t teach how to be a “good man”.
Teach being good at being a man.
MARY:
More coffee added to my abdomen

Reflection on quote from William Blake
“We become what we behold.”
And we … beholding … are being transformed
And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.
2 CORINTHIANS 3:18
THE THANG:
– We started with a Shamrock Shuffle doing 1 burpee, 1 squat, and 1 bear (crawl) to the next shamrock.
– Moved over to Jesus and played goonies trivia. Each round has 5 exercises with 25 reps each. For every correct question you can reduce the reps by 10. We made it through 3 rounds. Needless to say…everyone has a homework assignment to watch goonies.
MARY:
– We did a couple things.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
– 10 year anny this weekend. Festivities start tonight at XUL. Workout is tomorrow morning.
COT:
– A COT doesn’t always have to be the same thing. I think that guys put too much pressure on themselves for this. I have a few suggestions that may help. The goal is for the rest of the PAX to leave with something that they can apply and remember.
– Shorter is better. Be hyper focused if you are reading from a passage. We have short attention spans at the end of workouts.
– Keep it real. Tell us something about you.
– What are your stories.
– Tell us why you believe what you believe.
– What are your struggles.
– Who were the men in your life that made a difference.
– In my opinion condensed stories with honesty, substance, are the best.
– Your Q does not end until you have completed the backblast. Just do it the same day.
– After you have done your backblast, sign up for another q.
