“A comfort zone is a beautiful oasis, but nothing ever grows there”

As men and as leaders, we cannot afford to shy away from opportunity just because it lies outside of our comfort zones. Stepping outside your wheelhouse will allow you to expand your skill set, meet new people, and gain new experience.

MOLESKIN
It was a great morning to be outdoors and we had a great PAX. The cool, clear morning had everyone pushing hard and everybody worked up a good sweat by the end of the workout. It was a different experience being in the center of the circle this time but I left feeling very refreshed and ready to take on another day – I hope everyone else did, too.

Where do we find our Significance?

I have been reading a book called the true measure of a man that was introduced to us by Byonce and God has really been using it to speak to me about where I find my significance.

Significance is the belief that your life makes a lasting difference.

There is a Theory proposed in the book the men find their significance in how the most important person in his life sees him. I think that often it is easy for men to get that confused.

What do you think would happen if Christ were the most important person in our life. What if Christ were the audience that we wanted to please most? It would truly transform our lives because Jesus understands we are each of incredible value. We are of infinite worth to him. He loves us with everlasting love.

Ephesians 2:10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

To have an impact, to show love, to teach someone we must first desire to change ourselves daily. Four ways to grow:

  1. Physically (F3, Eating Healthy etc.)
  2. Intellectually (reading, continuing education classes)
  3. Spiritually (praying, reading scripture)
  4. Socially (having community, 2nd F)

MOLESKIN
The PAX really pushed it today and it was a hot one. After this workout it is a necessity to bring water on these hot afternoons. There was some great mumble chatter throughout the workout and after the 11s everyone was talking about how they were looking forward to doing burpees. With a PAX of 8, it makes it easy to hold each other accountable during the workout and encourage one another to push through it. It felt like we were being attacked by sweat it was so hot and humid.

Just Keep Moving…

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.
