15 present today
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Matthew 5:43-48 – love your enemies as well as neighbors.  God doesn’t play favorites like we as humans tend to do sometimes.  Strive to be “perfect” like God and treat even our enemies with love and we might just win them over to follow the Lord.
MOLESKIN:
This workout was meant to be a pyramid, but due to YHC’s forgetfulness, no one had a chance.  YHC meant to have a nice large-print page with all the exercises written down so that everyone could move at their own pace.  Instead, we were limited to a cell phone.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:

None today.

Easy as 1, 2, 3

Rocky Balboa moment at the Project

THE SCENE: A little cooler.  Perfect!
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:

15 SSH, 15 mountain climbers, 10 tempo squats, 10 windmill
THA-THANG:
Mosey to the AO’s biggest hill (i.e. K2/5 hill, The Ridge, etc…it goes by many names at this point).  Perform a pyramid with merkins at the bottom and squats at the top:  10, 20, 30, 20, 10 reps.

Covering some ground this morning we moseyed over to the track at the high school.  We got the whole body covered at the track.  We performed the following exercises at the 100 meter marks and added a station up the steps on the west side of the school (definitely feeling some Rocky Balboa at the top!).

  • 10 diamond merkins
  • 20 narrow squats
  • 15, 4-ct Freddie Mercury

We moseyed back to the flag and got a little Mary in.
MARY:
15 Heels to Heaven, 20 American Hammer, and 15 Hello Dolly
COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
5 HIMs!
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Matthew 7:13-14 – “Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it.  For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it.”

We can be “all-in” with our faith, but if we have errors in our convictions, we can be one of the many mentioned above.  Paul, before he met Christ on the road to Damascus, was zealous for the Lord.  However, he was persecuting Christians!  Jesus corrected Paul and he became one of the biggest influencers for the Church.  Consider the things you hear about God and the Bible and study them to make sure they are true.  Always seek the truth!

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Planning in the works for upcoming CSAUPs.  Look for announcements about 2nd F lunches in Oak Ridge!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
We are in the season of Pentecost. As Christians, we have the Holy Spirit to help us carry on the mission. On the original day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit enabled Christians to communicate to people of many different languages. That lead to the follow word from Peter:
“And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For the promise is for you and for plpyour children and for all who are far off, everyone whom the Lord our God calls to himself.” And with many other words he bore witness and continued to exhort them, saying, “Save yourselves from this crooked generation.” So those who received his word were baptized, and there were added that day about three thousand souls.”
‭‭Acts 2:38-41 ESV‬‬
https://www.bible.com/59/act.2.38-41.esv
As Christians today, we need to maintain an awareness of what work the Holy Spirit has for us to do. Empowered by the knowledge provided in the Bible, carry on God’s plan in the lives of the people around you.

Proverbs 13:20 Walk with the wise and become wise, for a companion of fools suffers harm.

Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up.

John 15:12-3 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. 

Proverbs 27:17 As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.

MOLESKIN:

My wife just celebrated her 30th high school reunion and mine is this weekend in Texas.  It’s made us think about our long friendships with people but also think about our more recent friends that are so important to us.  For me, I know the HIMs I’ve met in F3 would do just about anything for me just like I would for them.  Friendships are important and can take a lot of work and effort but they are important so let’s all try to be better friends and be intentional with our relationships with old friends and new ones!

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

I’m out for a week. Commission has the JUCO flag.

Please remember to find a date to Q in June!
