CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I continue to have a heart of thankfulness during this time reflecting on my birthday and past years. I’m thankful for those who took the time to invest and mentor me during various points and troubles in my life. Many people come to mind and even if they spent a short amount of time with me and their message has made a huge impact on me in reflection. I encourage all of us to use our time and resources to build up others even if it’s 5 minutes for coffee. You never know what that might mean to the person down the road. I’ve always felt unqualified and intimidated to have tough conversations with people but then I think of Paul in the Bible and his role in building up Timothy. Paul came from a past of murdering and persecution of Christians but in his new redeemed life he was able to build Gods kingdom and devote time to develop Timothy as a disciple. It goes to show that we can all lift each other up and mentor no matter our personal history or feelings of inadequacy at times.

The Dragon King of Sufferlandria

THE SCENE: It was glorious! Like a perfect 60
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:

20 SSH

THA-THANG:

The Dragon Strikes!

Each person rolls a d20. Write down each person’s number. 

Save a Villager – 15 min timer

  • Stay low – Murder Bunnie set distance
  • Dig your friend out of the rubble – 10 Grave Diggers
  • Repeat 
  • Write down each person’s tally next to their original number

Put out the fires – 10 min timer

  • Sprint the Full Grinder
  • 10 Hand Release Merkins (hands out to the side) saves 1 building
  • Repeat 
  • Write down each person’s tally next to their other numbers

At the end, how many more or less villagers or buildings were saved is +or- that many points to aid you in finding the dragon’s lair.

Find the Dragon’s Lair… 

Run to the top of the plateau of pain in the far north of Sufferlandria (We went to mt. crumpet)

Depending on everyone’s plus or minus from the previous rounds

  • + On save the villager means you run that many light posts and do that many burpees before running back to the 6 and then repeating
  • – On save the villager means you crawl that many light posts searching for clues before standing and running to the position of whomever is farthest along and then repeating

Note: We were only able to do this once because of time and how the dice rolls worked out. 

Fight! 

On the plateau of pain, the Dragon King of Sufferlandria attempts to wipe out our band of heroes. 

Total number rolled at the beginning (adding all D20 rolls) is the Dragon’s health bar. We need to get the bar down to 0 before time runs out (5 min before beat down ends). The second largest D20 roll is the dragon’s armor. You must roll above that number to damage the dragon. Example: The dragon has 10 armor, you roll a 12, you score 2 damage.

  • + On put out fires grants that many bonus points to your roll to strike a blow
  • – On put out the fires means that many additional reps to get to strike a blow

To strike a blow, you must first do

  • 20 mountain climbers (2ct) / 20 squats / then roll the D20

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

In regular life, we also have dragons we have to fight. For me, it is the dragon of lust. Some days, it feels like I made a bad roll and have to fight a lot harder than it seems I should have to. Other days aren’t so bad, but then a single slip will burn me. I’ve found that the key is to keep fighting and to trust God for the victory He has already won. I’ve also found that it’s important to battle our dragons together, and it’s pretty hard to battle dragons that no one else knows about. So I encourage you to name your dragons, to call for aid, and to KEEP FIGHTING!!!

Work is a blessing. God has so arranged the world that work is necessary, and He gives us hands and strength to do it. The enjoyment of leisure would be nothing if we had only leisure. It is the joy of work well done that enables us to enjoy rest, just as it is the experiences of hunger and thirst that make food and drink such pleasures. – Elizabeth Elliot

If you go dark on vacation, you will be ready for the light when you return. – Brian Scudamore

Let’s find the balance of work and rest.

Read the verse below about God’s sovereignty. I would think if I really believed God is sovereign, I wouldn’t worry so much. And I also think I would find more assurance and comfort in following Christ’s example and become a servant of those around me.
MOLESKIN:
Who does majesty, glory, and power belong to?
Who is righteous in all His ways and never wrong?
Who is God? Sovereign
Who is awesome?
Who do all men depend on for life and breath?
The author of life and death
The often overlooked but still He’s all-seeing, all-knowing
Holding all creation in its place, the God of wrath and grace
The one who could crush every idol man would rather chase
And leads men to the narrow gate, through these crooked paths we navigate
This world exists cause You’ve commanded it
So is Your hand in it?
Or have you handed it over to man and turned away and abandoned it?
Did you try your best and then left man to handle the rest?
Will your plans find success or should we second guess
When world leaders are deceivers, eager to puff their chests?
Is life a game of chess? Do you have these kings in check?
With so much evil how can we believe you’re good?
But I finally understood when I saw that man nailed to wood
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Would like to play two hand touch football on the 24th if we can get enough people to commit to coming to the beatdown. Maybe bring the young men out too?
