“Familiarity is a danger for the church even today. The moment we become comfortable and over-familiar with our own culture, we tend to disregard those who are foreign to our ‘family.’

In order to be a High Impact Man, you need to be out of your comfort zone

Challenge: Bring someone who you have nothing in common with to F3. If they won’t come, share a meal with them

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I’ve been listening to the audio Bible lately.  I encouraged the PAX to give it a try.   Normally when I read I only get through 1-2 chapters at a time, but with the audio version I can easily listen to entire books in one setting.   It’s helpful to gain the perspective of hearing it all at one time so that everything is in context.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

We are going to have times in our lives when we feel like hitting the reset button.  Times when we need to stop, take stock of our current situation, and then find the direction and motivation to move forward.

Galatians 6:9-10  So lets’ not get tired of doing what is good.  At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up.  Therefore, whenever we have the opportunity, we should do good to everyone – especially to those in the family of faith.

MOLESKIN:
What a great way to start my 44th year on the Big Ball.  The PAX showed up ready to burn some goo; mumble chatter was high and the effort was amazing.
