COT:
Shared a story from my childhood, an influence I had as a young boy. My grandmother’s husband (Floyd – not my grandfather) grew up a roughneck and experienced much brokenness, into his adult years. He ultimately came to faith in Christ via an old friend from high school, John “The Bull” Bramlett (look him up). John was an All American baseball and football player, known as the “Meanest Man in Football”. He went on to play for the Miami Dolphins and New England Patriots. He also had his troubles as an abuser of drugs, alcohol, women, etc.

John also gave his life to Christ in his later years and became a lay evangelist in Memphis, TN, sharing the gospel. Another neat side note is that he and Floyd lived in the same neighborhood and were also friends with Elvis Presley. Floyd once shared a photo of him and John, with Elvis, from their younger years (before Elvis became famous).

Floyd was always sharing Jesus with me and made it clear that by putting my faith in him, I would be saved and have eternal life with Him. Will remember his words and also watching Billy Graham preach on TV with him.

God works things out in ways we never see coming and never can always figure out. “Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments and how inscrutable his ways! “For who has known the mind of the Lord, or who has been his counselor?” “Or who has given a gift to him that he might be repaid?” For from him and through him and to him are all things. To him be glory forever. Amen.”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭11‬:‭33‬-‭36‬ ‭ESV‬‬

COT:
Consider the word masculinity. What do you think of when you hear it? I’ve been studying the f3nation.com/q-source with many of the guys here on Sunday mornings prior to the time most of us goes to church & one thing that you guys know & we’ve talked about is that F3 uses words differently from the denatured words of the world.

Now once again consider the word masculinity

Each of you is a man. I want to give you a definition of masculinity & then break it down for you:
Masculinity is the glad assumption of sacrificial responsibility

Glad- you choose an emotional state before the outcome is decide
Assumption- take on. Pick up the ruck sack. Take the heavy load. Carry the burden whatever it is.

Sacrificial- love is measured by what you’re willing to give up, give away, or give to someone. Lay your life down!

Responsibility – being a Q, take ownership of a problem & being the one to fix it problem by problem. Especially when you’re not the “leader.”

So today, I challenge you to be masculine. Consider the words above and step up. Sacrifice. Give your life away by taking ownership of hard situations.

John 15:13 – Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.
