ANNOUNCEMENTS: Escape from Haw Ridge

COT: I am seeing more references to God and Jesus in society – from athletes in the NFL and college football to people serving in the government. I hope that it is all sincere (we can’t judge what is in another’s heart) and a sign that society is embracing God again and moving closer to his teachings and will. Time will tell but take hope and solace in these little things and be part of a larger revival in your homes and communities where and how you can.

COT:”Life’s a Ruck”
Alright, fellas, let’s talk about life. It’s a lot like rucking, isn’t it?
* The Load: You’ve got your responsibilities – family, work, bills. That’s your ruck. It’s heavy, it’s uncomfortable, but you gotta carry it.
* The Terrain: Life throws curveballs. Sometimes it’s smooth sailing, other times you’re climbing uphill, facing obstacles, maybe even getting lost.
* The Pace: There are days you’re crushing it, feeling strong and motivated. Other days, you’re dragging, every step a struggle.
* The Team: You’ve got your brothers, your support system. They help you carry the load, navigate the tough spots, and keep you moving forward.
* The Finish Line: There isn’t always a clear finish line. But the journey itself, the discipline, the camaraderie – that’s what matters.
So, next time you’re facing a challenge, remember the ruck. Dig deep, find your rhythm, and keep moving forward. You got this.

Competence is how good you are when there is something to gain. Character is how good you are when there is nothing to gain. People will reward you for competence. But people will only love you for your character.”

COT:
Adultery is a slippery slope. If you think you’re struggling, seek accountability or be prepared for the consequences. Bible filled with examples. Psalm 51 David commits adultery and pays a heavy price. In Genesis Joseph successfully avoids temptation. Be strong Men and protect your relationship with your wife.
