CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

I’m thrilled that Shamrock is launching ShieldLock groups.  Behind your wife and kids, these close relationships with men are the most important relationships that you’ll have.  Your SL offers so many benefits – one is perspective.  They can watch your six and alert you to hazards that you can’t even see.

MOLESKIN:

Prayers for Mermaid’s wife’s aunt, Joy.  Prayers for all the kids and teachers doing standardized testing this week.  Prayers for Anchorman and his family as he returns home from a mission trip.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
An empty LaCroix is easily crushed but a filled and sealed LaCroix can withstand at least 240lbs of pressure. As men, we need to be filling ourselves with God’s word, the right relationships, and accountability to others around us. That way when the trials of life come our way we are filled and sealed like a new can of LaCroix that is not easily crushed under the weight of the trials. I am thankful for F3 and the men that are in my life that hold me accountable to not drain down too empty.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

  • Priorities
    • Many think your time reflects your priorities (often true)
    • For many in this circle, your time may not reflect your priorities; it may reflect your lack of priorities or your weakness in setting priorities
    • The squeaky wheel gets my time and attention
    • This is a lack of ability to set boundaries and defend your time
    • Jesus served? Yes – Jesus also prioritized his messages and his actions
    • As HIM we are capable, willing and have the heart to serve in so many ways that we can’t do it all.
    • Do you have an set of priorities well establish that guide your life?
    • Are they reflected in what you DON’T DO as well as what you DO?
