Joshua 24:14-15

“Now fear the Lord and serve him with all faithfullness. Throw away the gods your ancestors worshipped beyond the Euphrates River and in Egypt, and serve the Lord. But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.

Bob: This memorial workout is dedicated to Robert “Bob” William Nowling from Council Bluffs Iowa.

Bob served in the United States Air Force during the Korean Conflict. After his military service, he attended Hastings College in Hastings, Nebraska, and Iliff School of Theology in Denver.

The workout was designed by Coach Ryan Garcia of Bob was an athlete at Wild Horizons for 2 years. They trained 3 times a week for 1 hour each day. Bob had been showing signs of dementia, and his wife began implementing lifestyle changes in order to try and help him. The most prominent changes she made for him were relative to his nutrition and fitness. Coach Ryan said:

“I grew very fond of my sessions with Bob, and the bond we formed over the 2 years extended beyond the gym. I learned a lot from Bob, and working with him was a fun professional challenge that helped me evolve as a coach.

The nature of this workout is intended to be simple. In order to work with Bob, I reminded myself to keep things simple with him. We didn’t need anything fancy to be effective, and that’s what I wanted to express with this workout.”

The rep scheme signifies:

– 91 reps of each movement for Bob’s age when he passed

– 3 movements to represent the number of days they trained every week. Monday they worked upper body, Wednesday they worked lower body, and Friday was his functional day where they did a handful of skills and movements that mimicked tasks he would do in his day-to-day activities.

21 Guns: A functional fitness tribute workout held twice a year on Veterans and Memorial Day in the US – “to honor our Nation’s Warriors, past, present, and future.”

The 21-minute workout and 21 repetitions signify a 21-gun salute, with an exercise for each of the five Branches of the Military. A 21 Gun Salute is the US’ highest display of honor, appropriately reserved for Fallen troops on Memorial Day. 

MOLESKIN:

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

With the gift of knowledge, we understand the meaning of God. The gift of knowledge is more than an accumulation of facts. Knowledge is often confused with both wisdom and understanding. Like wisdom, knowledge is the perfection of faith, but whereas wisdom gives us the desire to judge all things according to the truths of the Faith, knowledge is the actual ability to do so. Like counsel, it is aimed at our actions in this life. In a limited way, knowledge allows us to see the circumstances of our life the way that God sees them. Through this gift of the Holy Spirit, we can determine God’s purpose for our lives and live them accordingly.

Like wisdom, knowledge perfects the virtue of faith. The aims of knowledge and wisdom are different, however. Whereas wisdom helps us to penetrate divine truth and prepares us to judge all things according to that truth, knowledge gives us that ability to judge. The object of this gift is the whole spectrum of created things insofar as they lead one to God.”
