CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Proverbs 12:18

The words of the reckless pierce like swords, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.

Had a friend over this past weekend and the husband said something incredibly insensitive and hurtful to his wife.  Apparently didn’t mean to say it, but once the words come out you cannot put them back.  As leaders / HIM we need to be very intentional about what we say and probably speak less and listen more.

Word — Forg3 2023 

https://f3knoxville.com/forg3-2023-registration-is-live/

We are rolling out our first F3 Knoxville men’s retreat this fall – Forg3! Forg3 was created with F3 men in mind – to strengthen the bonds we have with each other and our Creator, over the course of a weekend retreat.

Forge (v.) – to shape and mold into a new condition, by heating in a fire / to move forward gradually and steadily.

Forg3 (n.) – an invigorating 40-hour weekend retreat to challenge and encourage F3 men in their pursuit of high impact manhood. You can expect to engage with other men in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd F sessions, to better understand who you are, whose you are, and the High Impact Man God has called you to be. You’ll have opportunities throughout the weekend to seek adventure, to rest, and to sharpen iron with other F3 men physically, mentally, emotionally, relationally, and spiritually.

If you love adventure of the heart, mind, body, and soul – Forg3 is for you. Forg3 was created for F3 men, by F3 men, as a way to engage together for a purposeful and relationally-driven weekend to step further into the men God has called us to be.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I talked a little bit about Jonah and how he wasn’t the best guy to begin with as far as profits go, God sent him on a mission, and he ran thinking he could run away from God. I was very critical of him when I was discussing this with my Sunday school class This past Sunday. But as I took a moment, I realized I do this on a daily basis. So how dare I judge Jonah for not listening to God. I learned a pretty good lesson and thought I would share it with the group.
MOLESKIN:
Aladdin’s favorite movie is Brokeback Mountain
