CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
The warrior ethos (AKA Jedi Training) consist of 13 pillars: commitment, honor, respect, prepared, faithful, fighter, hungry, humble, lover, teachable, firestarter, truthful, and generous.
Each one is tied to a Bible verse.

The master has failed more times than the inexperienced have ever tried. Let’s learn from our mistakes.

Respect: the 3rd pillar
The verse for this pillar is Matthew 7:12

“So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.”
Matthew 7:12

Provide Security

“Respect everyone, and love the family of believers, fear God, and respect the king.”
1 Peter 2:17

I have a lot of respect for you gentlemen. Not only for showing up and putting in the work, but how you live by example and practice what you preach.

I have so much respect for all of you. You challenge me during the workouts and then even more so afterwards. Commission does a fantastic job of this. He’s constantly giving back to the community. Kick Flip is another example. I mean when we were laid up with COVID he brought us board games and doughnuts. Let’s continue to challenge each other.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Matthew 18:5-6 and 7-9

Jesus talks about children and how we must humble ourselves to be like children. Also he describes how if we lead a “child that believes in him” to sin then we would be better off with a large boulder tied to our waste and thrown in the ocean.

This all leads into a discussion of sin and we talked about how “looking like this world” can easily become a trap and cause many sins.

How many of us fall into this category?

You stumble from being a Christian by the way your language slips, your choice in music, your materialistic approach, your viewing of porn, fill in the blank

We often define greatness by power, wealth, sports, or other general accomplishments. But those are all short lived and focused on the things of this work.

Get an accountability partner, be honest with your wife. Stop trying to impress people you don’t even know or like and live for an audience of one and richen your family.
MOLESKIN:
We all can think about ways in which we fall into at least one of these.  We need to be better so that can be examples to our kids, friends, colleagues, etc.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
God is Holy – set apart, altogether different, perfect, yet He reveals Himself to us through creation, through the Scriptures, through beauty, family, the church, our circumstances. In Jesus, He shows us who He is, and I’m amazed that He reveals Himself to me as a Friend. Not a casual acquaintance, or a buddy, but a Friend – One who laid down His life down for us. “A Friend loves at all times, and a Brother is born for adversity” (Proverbs 17:17). “A man of many friends may come to ruin, but there is One who sticks closer than a brother” (Proverbs 18:24). These verses point to the need of a man for friendship. Few men are willing to admit they are lonely. Some men acknowledge they are searching for friendship, and F3 meets that need for several. Some find in their wives a best friend. But we find in Jesus, a Friend that fulfills the kind of true love and intimacy that we need and search for, and God created us for. Friendship may sound unnecessary, or trite, but this need in me is a way for me to understand God’s love for me.

Ephesians 3:14-21 is a powerful and beautiful passage that contains so much, but it also speaks to me of God choosing me for love and intimacy:

“For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, 15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, 16 that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being, 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith—that you, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, 19 and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.

20 Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.”

There’s nothing better…

MOLESKIN:
