Word — Forg3 Invitation 

  • Forge (v.) – to shape and mold into a new condition, by heating in a fire / to move forward gradually and steadily.
  • Forg3 is a weekend retreat created for F3 men, by F3 men. 
  • 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.

We want to engage together for a purposeful and relationally-driven weekend to step further into the men God has called us to be. And I want to invite you into this experience with us.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Psalm 143:10 

10 Teach me to do your will, for you are my God! Let your good Spirit lead me on level ground!

 1- The request –  “Teach me to do your will,”- Isn’t that basically what we all want and need from God? It’s a direct request to God that he will honor. 

2- The praise – “for you are my God!” – I love this declaration of worship and respect to God. 

3 – Continued praise and doubling down on the request – “Let your good Spirit lead me on level ground!” – This gives me a visual for “Your will be done” – David invites God to lead him. He humbly admits that he can’t walk through life on his own. He needs the one and only mighty God to walk with him.
