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!

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA

38 strong this morning – No FNG’s

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

When one man acts courageously, it strengthens the spines of other men. It took courage for Peaches and Food Truck to share their testimonies with us at the 3rd F event on Saturday. By doing so, they allowed our small group time to be more open and allowed us as men to be more vulnerable with each other because they had the courage to be open themselves.

When we come out each morning to the gloom, we can either choose to push through the suck and make our brothers push themselves harder and farther than they imagined, or we can choose to half ass it and settle for mediocrity. When I see a brother pushing himself to his max, something stirs inside me that makes me want to push myself harder as well. Don’t be the guy who waits for someone else to step up before stepping up yourself. We’re called as HIMs to be the guy that strengthens the spines of other men through our actions.
