Ephesians 5:25
Spoke about relationships and how Christ loved the church. How we should love our spouses as he loved us. Unconditionally and not selfishly.

“Love seeks its happiness in the happiness of the beloved. It will even suffer and die for the beloved in order that its joy might be full in the life and purity of the beloved.This is how Christ loved us, and this is how he calls us to love one another.” From Desiring God pages 206-7.

The New Testament mentions “One Another” 59 times It specifically says “love one another” 15 separate times.
John 13:34 says
“So now I am giving you a new commandment: Love each other. Just as I have loved you, you should love each other. Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples.””

So who is Jesus talking about when he says “one another”? Christians? Jews?…..Everyone.
It’s easy to love family, friends, F3 brothers. It’s not easy loving everyone. Are we lovable? Not always. We have sin in our hearts we are going to disappoint.
Jesus loved us….warts and all.  Lets love on the unloveable.

I was in the stadium two years ago that the first checkerboard game one Florida looks so awful against Tennessee. I was into thousands and thousands of fans screen their lungs out for 3 1/2 quarters. It was deafening and, frankly, impressive. Even as a Gator fan I was proud of these fans pouring their hearts out for their team. I wanted so desperately for their team to win and were excited to the point of near madness at the possibility of winning after losing 9 straight.

Then, the fourth quarter came and Jalon Tabor had a strip sack, recovered the fumble and a touchdown was scored by a back up quarterback in the ensuing drive.

The place went silent as the grave. All of those screaming fans didn’t make a sound. I was stunned. How can so many people, so excited and so sold out, have lost faith so quickly. I realized later in that stadium there were many, many fans but very few believers. Everyone hoped they would win, but they truly believed they could not. Even though we were still losing my relaxed. I knew that the fans didn’t believe they could win and therefore the boys on the field would believe the same. It actually saddened me.

This morning, I talked to the man about not being fans but rather being believers. In family, as we lead our teams at work, and most importantly with God. Belief is not simply hoping. Belief = faith + action. Be a believer, not just a fan

I laid the gator talk on the thick today…trying to get a rise out of the PAX. The men handled it well, there was good mumble chatter and excellent intensity. They worked their tails off and we had a great time together. Looking forward to the game this weekend.

My man Frosty, put it on my heart to talk about something we don’t do.  Something that even when we set out to do it we sometimes call an abort or chicken out at the last minute.  My fellow Christians and I are called to witness, or go out and spread the word about our Savior to others.  How quickly we talk about F3, invite other men to F3, wear F3 shirts, post on the F3 site or even post in on our F3 GroupMe, FaceBook, Instagram or whatever, but how often we fail to go out and teach others about Jesus.  Whether it be for societal reasons, or our own personal fears.  (I know I struggle with feeling that I will say the wrong thing and scare people off. ) However, what we need to know is that when we speak about Jesus, He will give us the words he wants us to speak.  He will work in us, through us, and use us to spread His message.

Mark 16:15-16
“He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.”

I don’t want our brothers, F3 or otherwise to be condemned.

21 men showed up to go on a Mosey with me today.  I tried to make it challenging, and contrary to the mumblechatter I was NOT trying to have anyone splash merlot. I also wanted to push some of the PAX to try things.  If we go into a challenge thinking we won’t succeed, guess what? we won’t succeed.  When you come around the corner and you see “Burpees 50” or “Pull-ups 50” written on the ground, how do you get better if you don’t try?  I am proud to say that everyone in this PAX tried.  No one gave up and quit, everyone kept moving and working hard.  I give it to the PAX that they went on a Mosey with me and never gave up.

Also “Nice roll Hondo” to my man Junk.
