I love the word Preeminent: meaning first, of greatest importance: Rise above. Stand out in importance.
We all agreed we want Jesus Christ to be preeminent in Christmas.
Challenge: Partner up (keep your partner from this morning) and set a plan of how you are going to do it. Then follow up after Christmas and how did it go.
Get a phone number and set a plan to connect.
Merry Christmas!

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

COT:
Getting out of your comfort zone:

What if your best laid plans and goals were thrown off for some reason….there are terrible ways that can happen like losing your job or an accident, but there are also positive ways like job opportunities, unexpected callings or kids

The character of a person…and in this case a MAN… is how you react in those situations. I don’t want a show of hands, but if you cringed or had a negative reflection of how you would probably react…then you need to remember that gods in control. You should feel comfort in Him and fall back on your values and trusts that you are in good hands.

Sometimes He like to take us out of our comfort zones and frankly laughs at them. He’s laughed at mine twice over the past year…

Matthew chapter 4
Jesus, God’s son is the trustworthy one
Example in chapter 10: throwing sheep into a den of wolves. Trust in Him.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

COT:
Alright guys we’re going to do something a little different.

We’ll go around the circle one by one and I want you to tell me what your net worth is.

Now that you’ll all taken a deep breath and uttered ‘yeah right’ …I’ll tell you mine
– I feel wealthy because of my eternal riches in Christ!

What you probably all thought of was a monetary version, which I’ll add is temporary. Those thoughts, while important for our time on earth, are ultimately nothing compared to what we have in store after this life is over.

Assets to manage
God has given people assets to manage, and tracking net worth can help people evaluate how to live more generously

Biblical wealth
People with biblical wealth see their wealth as an opportunity to manage what God has given them, and not as something they own.

Self-worth
People with biblical wealth do not attach their self-worth to their net worth.

Self-worth in Christ
Jesus sacrificed for people’s sins so that they could be made whole and given life in Him.

Ephesians 3:8: Christ’s riches are spiritual and unsearchable, and they provide salvation to everyone who believes. 

4 corners and angry bungies

AO: juco
Q: Guardrail
PAX: Dart Gun, Pelican, Fetch, Wanderer, Windex, Booster, Archie
FNGs: None
COUNT: 8
WARMUP: SSH, Mountain climbers, Moroccan night clubs

THE THANG: 4 Corners, laps of 10,20,30,20 and 10 with Jack Jack Jacks (Star, regular, plank Jacks), Squats, Crabettes and Flutter kicks (or choose your own core)

Bernie up the hill to the PUB (Pull Up Bars), where bungies helped us achieve 30 pull ups each. Down to the CMU’s for 30 curls, then Bungie resistance run back.

MARY: Guardrail dips, LBC, Hello Dolly, Pickle pounders

COT: Be angry and do not sin. Do not let the sun go down on your anger. Eph 4:26

Am I allowing myself to get angry about the things God is angry about or do I get angry about my own comfort, preferences or agenda? Confession – it’s the latter. Am I showing my anger in productive ways or taking it out on the people around me?

Consider Jonah – and his unrighteous anger b/c God was merciful.
Consider Jesus – angry over God’s glory and the respect His law wasn’t getting.
Jesus’ angry wasn’t about his comfort. Jonah’s was. Be like Jesus. Prayerfully figure out what to get productively angry about.

Most wouldn’t

COT: in Matthew 24 Jesus says that as
Wickedness increases>>>Love of MOST will grow cold.
Old men have a path to choose; rather men have a path to choose and the path is clear once they are old
Bitter, or better
Dirty old man or sweet old man. But it’s never too late.
On this veterans day, I want to honor my dad, a Veteran and a guy who is growing to in his Love for the Lord and is a sweet, and funny, old man.
Sweet old man is going to not come from me, but from God’s love in me
I need to grow in passion, not let it grow cold and do what MOST won’t do.
What things do you see good men do?
– In community
– prayer
– Time in scripture
– realizing the stakes are high
