CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Continued the theme from this past weekend’s 3rd F- Suffering. We can’t have adversity without pain. It’s not possible. God meets us at the point of our deepest need. We were made to live in community with others. Take your concerns, cares, adversity, pain, and suffering to God and share with appropriate others.

MOLESKIN:
The Doobie Brothers opened the first Monday morning workout at the Equalizer in style. Hot Tub, Farva, Doubtfire, and Bow Flex put on a historic performance. One for the ages.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Let’s keep leading ! The only way to get better is to practice. Sign up to Q not only at the Bombshelter but sign up to Q at another  AO and lead a group of men you don’t know . It will only help you be a better leader.
MOLESKIN:
I think I am a social introvert. I like being social but I will never be that guy that will out talk you! I like being alone but only for short periods. Signing up to Q and leading workouts is good for me. It’s not my comfort zone to be in front of a bunch of people talking but leading workouts has helped me overcome those fears. I encourage everyone to get out there to lead! It’s what we are meant to do as men and men of action lead

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

I have lost my focus and commitment towards my Bible study and scripture memorization so I found a few scripture to hopefully get me focused again.

“And may your hearts be fully committed to the LORD our God, to live by his decrees and obey his commands, as at this time.” 1 Kings 8:61 “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” Romans 3:23

“Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.” Proverbs 16:3

“Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.” Deuteronomy 6:5

“Keep your eyes focused on what is right, and look straight ahead to what is good.” Proverbs 4:25

“No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.” 1 Corinthians 10:13 

Let’s keep listening to and encouraging one another so to help each other get or stay focused on our faith!  We need one another and F3 is helping us get better and stay focused because our goal at the end of our life is to say:

“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.”  2 Timothy 4:7

MOLESKIN:

I’m not sure there’s a prettier spot to run in F3 Knoxville than the trail run next to the lake at the Equalizer!

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

  • Sign up to Q at the Equalizer
  • Convergence on March 30 at the Asylum followed by a 3rd F event
