THE SCENE:
‘Twas the week before the F3 Knoxville AOs officially reopened and all through the town, THE HIGH IMPACT MEN WERE HYPE – IT WAS TIME TO DESTROY SOME SAD CLOWNS. So the week before, here we are, we’ve come along way, we’ve come pretty far.
In prep for posting at an AO next week, knock out this WoW and remind yourself and others to stay in the fight. We’re moving in the right direction!
Got both some rain and sunshine coming our way this week, as well as a 100% of iron sharpening. The sun is looking pretty good on Monday/Tuesday/Friday/Saturday/Sunday.

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
Sound off in the main F3 GroupMe with your Name o Rama.
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
(1) WHERE ARE YOU? As a son, a father, a HIM, a warrior, a kingdom man, a worker, a husband, etc.
(2) It may not be my fault, but it’s my responsibility.
MOLESKIN:
(1) In Genesis 3:6-9, we read the story of the fall – the eating of the fruit and what happens next. Draw your attention to verse 9 though –> “But the Lord God called to the man, “Where are you?”” I heard a sermon on this yesterday – that entertained the notion that God wasn’t asking or referring to Adam’s physical location, but rather, Adam’s spiritual location. God called Adam first – God will always call Adam (the man) first. Notice it didn’t say “God called Eve” or “God called them both” – God called Adam, fully knowing where he was physically.
Begs the question of Where are you? God will always call Adam first.
(2) A lot of things in our life may not be our fault (think childhood experiences for yourself or a loved one like a wife or S.O. for instance, or as big as the generational lack of fathers and male leadership in the country/world) but as High Impact Men/Kingdom men – they’re our responsibility.
That wound that your wife got when she was younger, and has tried to heal from for years, maybe before you were even in the picture? Not your fault – but it is your responsibility as the HIM that you are and the husband God has called you to be.
A tremendous lack of male role models/father figures in our city for young men to look up to – not your fault, but as the HIM you are called to be and the Kingdom Man He’s continually growing you to be – it is your responsibility.
High Impact Men do High Impact stuff. On a small or large scale. And they don’t do it alone. High Impact Men take responsibility even when it’s not their fault.
IRON. SHARPENS. IRON.
