CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Quick word regarding anxiety/fear.

Grace means courage. When God says “fear not” his aim is not that you would just calm down and experience a relative absence of fear. He doesn’t say “don’t be afraid, everything will turn out okay so you can relax.” Instead, He says, “Don’t be afraid, I am with you!” -David Powlison

Isiah 41:10

Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
When Martin Luther was asked what he would do if he knew tomorrow was the end. He responded that he would plant an apple tree.  How would I respond?  If I trust in God each day, I will have no reason to worry about what is in store for tomorrow. I pray I can trust God to provide that which I need.

BOM
A good name is more desirable than great riches; to be esteemed is better than silver or gold.
Proverbs 22:1

Over the last two and half years we have seen literally hundreds of men come through F3 Knoxville.  No matter whether they’ve stayed or moved on, they have contributed to what it means to be a part of F3, what it means to be a HIM.  When we wear the “F3” it means something.  It symbolizes a pursuit to reject passivity, accept responsibility, lead courageously and expect a greater reward.  It is worn by everyday men who are seeking to live extra-ordinary lives as men of impact.  Every day we have an opportunity to grow and help others grow as well.  This is both a gift and a stewardship.  My prayer is that as each of us leave there this morning, we will choose to be men of integrity, courage, humility and love.  That we will not only live up to, but contribute to the reputation this PAX has built over the last two years.

Now let’s get after it!
