Brotherly Love – “Therefore as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.” – Galatians 6:10

* Bonds of brotherly love are a big deal to God because they represent the kind of bonds that exists between the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit
* Men are created to live, work, and fight in bands
* Your bonds of brotherly love should seek to liberate & strengthen and not constrict & consume.

P-nut reminded everyone of the business that surrounds them in everyday life. Work, stress, hurt and worldly pursuits can distract us from our purpose. We need to elevate our thinking and focus on Christ to help us become better men. Get out of the world and into Jesus.  P-nut prayed us out.

Lots of spirited mumblechatter on this unseasonably chilly May morning. Good vibes from good men.

Element of Authentic Manhood – Stewardship.
Matthew 25:14-30.  We are stewards of all we have, not owners.  Ownership implies that we are the center, stewardship reminds us that we have to give an account what we have been given.  Not just our resources and talents, but our relationships.
