CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

I get a weekly email from a site called Parent Cue. It’s a online resource for parents, with tools and tips on helping you raise your kids, whatever their age. Anyway, I rarely look at the emails, usually deleting them, but this week I took a closer look.

The short article was titled 3 Steps for Better Relationships (Even When You’re Busy). Again, I started to delete it and then I thought…Relationships! That’s the single most important thing in our lives…
They are why we exist.
They shape everything about who we are.
They give us joy, and heartache.
They are a source of our happiness, and our pain.
They drive us to succeed and sometimes to fail.
Our memories are filled by them.
They give us purpose.
They give us meaning.
We have access to our Creator because we have a relationship with his son, Jesus.

So I looked at the 3 steps and the first was to make a list of your key relationships. Your spouse, your girlfriend, your parents, your kids, your in-laws, your close friends, and Yourself! I don’t think I’ve ever done that, but I think it’s a great idea!

Number 2 was that we are to assess our relationships…Overall and then Individually… Things like…
How do we connect in our relationships?
What keeps me from being fully present with family and friends?

How well do we truly know each other?
What energizes or drains me about this relationship?
Am I the real me around this person?

Just inventory your close relationships and what they mean to you.

#3 was to Make a New Commitment for your relationships. Like putting into action things you can do to build and restore some key relationships.

The Bible has so many things to say about our relationships. You can start with Jesus. He was asked about the greatest commandment in the Law and he said to love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, and mind. Then he said love your neighbor as yourself.

Think about our group here and we know that Proverbs 27:17 says “Iron sharpens iron and one man sharpens another”. In Hebrews 10 says “let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, but encouraging one another.” That’s what we do!

If you’re married it says in Ephesians 5:28 that husbands should love their wives as their own bodies and that He who loves his wife loves himself.

Think about those challenging relationships! The joke insert here would be “the in-laws”! Ephesians 4 says “Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up…that it may give grace to those who hear”.

1 Peter 4:8 “Above all, maintain constant love for one another, since love covers a multitude of sins.”

Relationships are important! We have God given instructions to bring life and be a reflection of his light to those closest to us.
That won’t be easy, but that’s the point of the article…
Make a list of your key relationships, assess those relationships, and put into action a plan to build and/or restore these key relationships.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

I saw Dr. Tony Evans at the 865 Mens Conference last weekend.  Dr. Evans was amazing.  He preached 2 separate 45-minute sermons without looking at his notes.

He brought the heat, challenged each of the 1,900 men there, and prayed for us to be the men we need to be and God called us to be.  He shared that NFL officials have a book of rules to follow…sometimes they do, sometimes they don’t.  Men of God do too…the Bible…sometimes we follow it and sometimes we don’t.

Tony encouraged us to be Kingdom Men, Kingdom Husbands and Kingdom Fathers.

Dr. Evans shared about his rough childhood in a non-Christian home.  His parents weren’t believers.  Two strangers poured into Tony’s Dad and led him to Jesus.  Things were still bad at home but his Dad had changed and loved and supported his wife, Tony’s mother even more than ever.  Why?  Because he was a changed man.

One night, Tony’s Mom came downstairs crying and told her husband that the more she hates him and fights with him, the more he loves and supports her.  She wasn’t sure what being a Christian was but she wanted to learn about it.  From that point on, his family worshipped and studied and loved the Lord.  This included all of his siblings who were baptized.

After college, Tony started a church with 10 people in the living room of his house.  He was the first African-American to earn a doctorate at the Dallas Seminary.  His church in South Dallas now has 10,000+ thousand members.  Tony’s preaching now spans the world, with his broadcasts airing on over 1,400 radio outlets and in over 130 countries, reaching millions each week.  All of his 4 children are in the ministry.

He has been the chaplain for both the Dallas Cowboys and the Dallas Mavericks.  Tony has written more than 100+ books, is on YouTube, has his own websites, etc.

Tony and his family are everywhere sharing about God’s love.  Why did he share all of these accomplishments?  It wasn’t to brag, it was to challenge those of us there to be like the 2 strangers who poured into Tony’s Dad and brought him to the cross.  Their work led to a transformation of his family which led to the transformation of thousands if not hundreds of thousands who deepened their relationship with Christ because of those 2 men who made a family go from non-believers to disciples.

Mosey to the Courtyard (behind Technology building).

We partnered up and cracked open some Easter eggs, inside the eggs there was different exercises. One person should perform the exercise while the other was running a small loop. After 5 minutes, the small loop became double. The partners switched back and forth during 10 minutes.

Mosey to parking lot in front of the Recreation Center.

We played a game (Wolf vs Sheep). There were three base lines in the parking lot and three different exercises to perform in those lines as follows:

  • 10 Merkins (15 for wolves).
  • 10 Burpees.
  • 20 Squats.

The wolf could not catch the sheep until he completes his merkins, once he completes his merkins, the he can catch as many sheep as possible and then the sheep become wolves. The game will finish when there is no more sheep left. We played the game several times and we changed the rules a little to add some fun :).

Mosey to the CMU pile.

We teamed up.

The person that stayed downhill would perform these exercises:

  • Curls x20
  • Over-head press x20
  • Squat x20
  • Swing x20

The person that jogged to the pull-up bars should perform a ladder pull-up from 1 to 10.

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).
