Why are you out here at 7am on a Saturday??
What is F3?
F3 is a men’s workout group, with the mission to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership.
What are our 5 core principles?
  • Are free of charge
  • Are open to all men
  • Are held outdoors, rain or shine, heat or cold
  • Are led by men who participate in the workout in a rotating fashion, with no training or certification necessary
  • End with a Circle of Trust
The F3 Credo is: Leave no man behind, and leave no man where you find him.
The credo doesn’t just apply to our workouts. How are you going to lead today?

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Today’s workout was about the value of making Trade-offs in life. We all have opportunities to make a change and need to know when to do so. Recently I had a Trade-off given to me when I unexpectedly lost my job. This caused me to evaluate my life and recognize the things that have kept me from reaching my potential and to see where I need to make some additional Trade-offs. I reminded the PAX of what they may have felt while doing the workout today. At first during the Bearicides it may not have seemed like a big deal to trade the crawl for the sprint, but on the longer crawls they were happy to get to stop and sprint back. The same was true later on with the Lungicides and that part of the workout was also a lot like the mundane monotony of life that we get used to and do it at the same pace as those around us. Even the 11’s brought Trade-offs that appeared to be good, but sometimes making a change for the sake of a change can wear you out. So the idea is to know and understand when we need to make Trade-offs and what are good Trade-offs to make. The perfect example of a great Trade-off is how these HIMs trade the early morning sleep to be in the Gloom with the PAX to grow and get better! What a way to start the day! The challenge this week is to evaluate your life and see if and/or where you can make some Trade-offs that will allow you to reach your potential.

A phrase stood out to me while reading Galatians chapter 1.  “Bear one another’s burdens”  We need to be ready to help one another during trials and troubles.  As we push each other each day let’s also be ready to pick up someone’s load who needs an extra hand.

The fruits of the spirit

Galatians 5

13 You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh[a]; rather, serve one another humbly in love. 14 For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. 

In one translation it explains that there should almost be a semicolon or colon after Love: 

I don’t have anything deep to say about this, but I know that I need a daily and hourly reminder to put others before me.

Jesus showed us over and over again how to serve others. To wash our neighbor’s feet. So I just want to encourage you men to ask the Lord for opportunities to serve. 

MOLESKIN:
Prayer for a friend named Caleb that was in a car accident.
