-We honor the 2977 fallen and the survivors of the day. We honor the first responders. We should not forget this tragedy.
-One of the greatest things that came out of the day was how it unified us as people. Regardless of your perspective our focus was to survive and get through it together. We gave charity and Grace.
-Tragedy is on the forecast. Let us be ready to lead with encouragement and charity for what comes next.
-Let’ keep out out of the gutter and help our brothers climb out as well.

“September 11 is one of our worst days but it brought out the best in us. It unified us as a country and showed our charitable instincts and reminded us of what we stood for and stand for.” Lamar Alexander

Hangman

AO: bigball
Q: Magic Mic (Jarrett Woodall)
PAX: G-6 (Rick Kuhlman), Secret Shower (Alex DeRusha), Ben Bannister, Jenner (Matt Pfeiffer), Rep Sleepy (Michael Barrett), David (Shoelaces) Lamon, snake handler, cowabunga, BTU
FNGs: None
COUNT: 10
Met at 11th Street garage due to lightning

WARMUP:
SSH, Arm Circles, Overhead Claps, Michael Phelps, This and That, Tempo Squats, Rockettes

THE THANG:
Hangman: a phrase was given and the group earned one guess at a time each time everyone completed a full set of the exercises listed. Wrong guesses resulted in a burpee penalty. The set was 10 reps of:

Squat Jumps
Incline Merkins
Lunges
Decline Merkins
BBS
Dry Docks
Am Hams (4ct)
Then a run up the ramp to the next floor and back

After each set the group decided on what letter to guess for the phrase. Only one wrong guess was made. The phrase was “Every Marine a Rifleman”

MARY:
none

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
none

COT:
The Marines use the phrase “every Marine a rifleman” because regardless of whether you are on the front lines, cooking food in the kitchen, cleaning toilets, or handling administration, every Marine undergoes basic training in order to be competent in battle, whether they intend on seeing it or not. When I heard this phrase recently I thought it was a good analogy to the mentality we encourage the students in our ministry at UT to have. That is, that everyone who has placed their faith in Jesus has accepted His Great Commission, meaning every believer is a disciplemaker. It also got me thinking about F3’s focus on inspiring male leadership. So along with that, each one of us, whether we hold clear titles of leadership, is a leader in our families, neighborhoods, and workplaces.
