The mission of F3 is to plant, grow, and serve small workout groups to invigorate male community leadership. We need to be constantly reminded of our mission so we know who we are and why we’re here. The same is true in your life. What is your mission? Can you articulate your mission clearly?  Probably worth spending some time to craft it, so it rolls off your tongue..

3 strong at JUCO today:  Booster, Neutron, Bartman

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Yesterday in Sunday school we talked about the importance of having individuals we are praying for.  I shared with the men today the idea of having a Top 5….that is, 5 people you are specifically praying for on a daily basis who are lost.  As you continually lift these 5 people up in prayer it will also create a top-of-mind awareness for you to look for opportunities to be bold and insert salt & light & grace in that person’s life.

Disclaimer:  non-original material.  The “elevator” portion was straight-up stolen from a beat down Proton delivered at the Dog Pound a few months ago.  Gotta give credit where it’s due – it was a good one and worth repeating!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I shared how this time of the year for me at work is can be more stressful than normal and how I often times find myself complaining about my day to my wife. Being the amazing wife that she is she reminded me of how the Lord sends us blessings that the enemy will try to steal. I told the PAX how prevalent complaining is to people in our society and how it works to steal our motivation and drive to appreciate God’s blessings and to complete the things that God has planned for us. This is especially true in a group setting, one person starts complaining and it will spread like fire through the group robbing the group of its motvation to complete the task at hand.
MOLESKIN:
prayed for Iceman’s family member who suffered a stroke and also for Tank’s foot to heal.

PAX 6
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

In many ways our lives today are better than they could have ever been. We can solve most of our problems quickly and efficiently. However, most of our pains and pleasures as well as the pursuits of these are devoid of meaning. I encourage you all to find ways to insert meaningfulness into your lives whenever you can. Certainly for me, F3 has been one avenue for me. There is a sense of community embracing the suck together. Reach out to old friends and try to encourage them to come out, or try to interact with them in another meaningful way. Live purposefully with intent and even the painful days will be worthwhile.
MOLESKIN:
Insert any personal comments, notes, devotion content, etc.
