COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
John 13: 1-12, we work with people and live with people day in and day out that frustrate us or we don’t get along with. In this passage we see Jesus washing his disciples’ feet, including Judas who betrayed Him. He loved Judas, despite what he did, and served him. May we, as men of God do the same to all those around us. Ever remembering that we are here to serve others as Jesus did. Matthew 10:45 reminds us that Jesus came to serve, not to be served.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Building from Trousers word on Tuesday.  As men, we feel as if we are not allowed to be vulnerable; that we have to pick ourselves up by our own bootstraps and do it alone.  YHWH never meant for us to go it alone in this world as Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 says.  It is hard to open up because we do not want to be seen as weak or be judged for our failures.  However, there is some comfort in knowing that what we are experiencing, other man have experienced or suffered through as well.  You are not alone.  We need to stop pretending like we are and that we are the only ones who have experienced the things we have experienced when there are plenty of guys out there and can just say, “I hear ya man!  Life sucks!”
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
#thespeedway launch on Saturday from 6A – 7A!  Woop woop!  Convergence, July 2 @ JUCO.  No other beatdowns in Knoxville area on this day.  Go to JUCO or stay in the fartsack (psst, we’d prefer you come to JUCO).

MOLESKIN:
I appreciate each and every one of my fellow PAX at the Speedway! In today’s culture it is imperative that we as men stick together, not only for encouragement but for accountability and fellowship. When we stand together, we are strong! F3 has made an impact on me physically, mentally, and spiritually. When we step up to lead, it changes us at home, at work, and in our daily lives. It is such a wonderful thing to see you encourage each other out there every time we meet.
