Kansas overcame a 16 point deficit in NCAA championship game to win it. Sorry Voodoo and all you NC fans. Kansas didn’t give up and it should remind you that if it’s important don’t give up. Whether that’s a sporting event, job, or your relationship with God. F3 brothers will be there to help, if needed. Also, don’t let up if you’re in a good position. Again, our F3 brothers can help maintain your position if you feel it slipping away.

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA

Me and 12 fine men of the Shamrock 

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM: 

F3 is more than a workout.  If you are really investing yourself and opening yourself up to your PAX, then you are building deep and meaningful friendships that will sustain you through good times and bad.  It is such a unique and special thing, and I don’t know of a better group of men out there.

How do you invest yourself in deeper, intentional friendships?

  • Consistency – it’s not just about showing up when you need to be shored up.
  • Contributing – You don’t take and take and take.  In fact, you expect and strive to give more than you take from this group.  You expect to invest more than you’ll have returned.
  • Candidness (outward) – Have the courage to speak candidly to a friend who is falling short of a high standard.  Talk straight to the man who is acting foolishly, who is harming himself and others around him, and who is temporarily blind, ignorant, or uncaring of their foolishness.
  • Candidness (inward) – Transparency / vulnerability. In order for you to have any credibility whatsoever to speak candidly to a hurting friend, you must first consistently be opening your own heart to him.  You must be candid about your own struggles, fears, insecurities, shortcomings, dreams.  Only then have you earned to right to speak truth to him about his struggles.

Romans 12:10
“Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Outdo yourselves in honoring one another.”

Psalms 39:1-9

A buddy shared this passage with me this weekend and challenged me to meditate on it. Very powerful wisdom. David is frustrated with people around him. He tries to keep it cool the Christian way, but anger boils up inside him. He meditates and turns to God. God gives him words of wisdom to ponder about this very short life we live on Earth. The tiny things that really matter to us in the moment will not matter in eternity. Our hope is in the Lord! I need to say that daily. I need the Lord’s wisdom and love.
