Metric Workout #1
(Every man will need 1 CMU)
Set a timer for 30 minutes.
Complete as many cumulative reps as you can in that time.
The following list of exercises are performed in sets of 25 reps. After completing a set of 25 reps, put down your CMU, run 25 yards, do 2 burpees, return to your CMU, and continue.
Here are the exercises:
– 150 curls
– 125 heavy squats
– 100 OHP
– 75 CMU swings
– 50 Thrusters
– 25 Blockees
When you finish the Blockees, start back at the top with curls.
It will look like this:
25 curls → 25 yard run → 2 burpees → 25 yard run → 25 curls…repeat until 150 curls are finished, then switch to squats…etc.
Once through the entire circuit is 525 reps (burpees do not count toward total).
How many cumulative reps can you complete?
Enter your Total Rep Count on the form.
This workout will be used to set your baseline score.  We’ll repeat it in July and you can see how your King is accelerating!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Let’s talk about the commandments.  Actually, not the 10 from the Old Testament.  John 14:15 reads, “if you love me, keep my commandments.”  Jesus came not to abolish the law of the Old Testament, but to fulfill and since I profess to love Jesus, I’d like to know what are His commandments.  Thought about an entire journey through the Bible to discover them, but realized someone has to have thought of this too…so I googled it.  And sure enough there are 38 (39) commandments in the New Testament from Jesus.  Let’s go over all of them now…j/k.  We discussed a few, The Greatest Commandment, The Golden Rule, Mark 11:25-26 Forgive, John 3:7 Be Born Again, and John 15:4 I am the Vine.
MOLESKIN:
Thought it very cool that a person from Maryville, TN popped up from a world-wide search with a nice list and nice website.  Commandments of Jesus (trusting-in-jesus.com)

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Heb 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.
Friday Erector talked about Fellowship, so I thought I’d continue the discussion on the 3rd F.  This passage could easily be taken out of context, but let’s look closer.  We have two areas of action (AFTER coming to him) – believing in God and earnestly seeking him.  What does that look like?  Earnest is more than a flippant prayer before a meal or dragging yourself out of bed to attend church in a robotic manner.  There is a fulfilling life to one who EARNESTLY seeks God, spending time with him, learning how to please Him through diligently studying and committing His Word to your heart.  Don’t just believe he exists (even demons do that), but resolve today to EARNESTLY seek him.

Phil 3:13-14
13Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.

MOLESKIN:

While we take time this Christmas season to reflect and prepare to experience the joy of Jesus’ birth, it can be a trying time for some as the draws to a close.  Let us forget those things we have left done (and those things that we shouldn’t have done) and press forward towards the goal for which we have been called heavenward

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

What is Generosity?  It can be defined as “the virtue of giving good things to others freely and abundantly.” When we think deeply about this definition, three parts stand out clearly. Generosity is giving “good things”, giving “freely”, and giving “abundantly.”

We can deepen our experience of generosity by moving from acts of generosity to cultivating an attitude of generosity. When we embody an attitude of generosity, the good things we share expand out from deep within our hearts as an offering of freedom.

When we practice generosity, the “good things” that we give can take many forms. Certainly, some “things” are tangible items like toys, blankets, and food. Giving material things to help others is both a valuable and needed act of generosity. We can also give things like our time, our talents, and our full presence when we serve.

There is a very important lesson surrounding generosity: everyone connected to generosity wins – the recipient, the giver, and all who learn of it. Generous living is a wonderful way to live!

SHOW UP!!!  By showing up to make other’s loads lighter!

As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.  Audrey Hepburn

Matthew 25:40-45 New International Version

40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’

41 “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42 For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, 43 I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.’

44 “They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?’ 45 “He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’
