Wall Squat sandbag pass

  • Indian run ended at block building. Each man did a wall squat on the wall and passed the sandbag down and back for a total of 7 passes.

Sandbag Lunges

  • Staying in line, everyone lunges. Man in front carries the sandbag for 3 lunges then drops it. Man behind picks up and does the same thing until playground was reached.

Monkey Bar Abs, Over the Shoulder Throws, Swing Pushups

  • First man in line does a sandbag toss over the shoulder 3 times then does the monkey bars. At each bar bringing the knees to chest before moving on to the next. When the first guy drops the sandbag the next grabs it and start his throws.
  • While waiting their turn for the toss and monkey bars, everyone else is doing decline merkins with feet in a swing. At the top of each push up bringing knees to chest.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
We aren’t called to carry the burdens of life alone. Galatians 6:2 “Carry one another’s burdens; in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.”

The sandbag in the workout represented the burdens we may carry. Started the workout letting the men know that it was all of our responsibilities to make sure that sandbag reached the finished line. This was not about being the first to complete the circuit. If we saw someone struggling, help them. That may even mean that we carry it for them.

In life we may have opportunity to come along those who are struggling. We should see that as an opportunity to show Christ’s love by bearing that burden with them or for them. We may also be the recipient of that at some point in out lives.

Look for opportunity!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Today is Yom Kippur- The Day of Atonement.

Recap of the significance of this day and the ritual animal sacrifices that went with it.  Yet Christ’s blood offers cleansing far greater than the blood of any animal ever could.

“Under the old system, the high priest brought the blood of animals into the Holy Place as a sacrifice for sin, and the bodies of the animals were burned outside the camp. So also Jesus suffered and died outside the city gates to make his people holy by means of his own blood. So let us go out to him, outside the camp, and bear the disgrace he bore. For this world is not our permanent home; we are looking forward to a home yet to come.”

Hebrews 13:11‭-‬14

MOLESKIN:

To be a leader like Jesus, we must let love motivate all we do. We must move toward need, not comfort. We must be willing to go “outside the camp” with Him even if it means suffering and disgrace. We must make things right with others and with God while we still have the chance.

Whatever it is you’re seeking won’t come in the form you’re expecting.

  • Haruki Murakami

I think we often think we know what is best for our lives. As a Christian, what the Bible teaches us is that God knows what is best for our lives. In the book of Jeremiah, the Israelites are suffering because of their disobedience and god reminds them of this through Jeremiah.

“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart.”

‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭29:11-13‬ ‭

Let’s remember to seek God because his plan is always better then our own.
