THE THANG:
As an anniversary of my first beatdown…we utilized Trolley’s Deck of Pain that takes us on a tour of JUCO.

We drew cards and enjoyed the consequences of moseying at a 5k pace between stops and partaking in the various exercises.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

COT:
Alright guys we’re going to do something a little different.

We’ll go around the circle one by one and I want you to tell me what your net worth is.

Now that you’ll all taken a deep breath and uttered ‘yeah right’ …I’ll tell you mine
– I feel wealthy because of my eternal riches in Christ!

What you probably all thought of was a monetary version, which I’ll add is temporary. Those thoughts, while important for our time on earth, are ultimately nothing compared to what we have in store after this life is over.

Assets to manage
God has given people assets to manage, and tracking net worth can help people evaluate how to live more generously

Biblical wealth
People with biblical wealth see their wealth as an opportunity to manage what God has given them, and not as something they own.

Self-worth
People with biblical wealth do not attach their self-worth to their net worth.

Self-worth in Christ
Jesus sacrificed for people’s sins so that they could be made whole and given life in Him.

Ephesians 3:8: Christ’s riches are spiritual and unsearchable, and they provide salvation to everyone who believes.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

COT: as we approach Thanksgiving, we all must remember to have a servant heart. Just like Jesus washed the feet of his disciples. We should get joy out of serving others. We must not serve only those we love or agree with, but those that may not treat us well or disagree with us, it is not enough to know God’s word we must act out in our day-to-day lives.

No regerts

Warmup SSSH IW Tempo Merkins Don Quixote

Dora 123 Merkins, Squats and squishy LBC (the sounds were fantastic)
P2 takes sandbag and walks 30 yards and back farmer carry (r then l) shoulder carry (r then left) front/back carry

Competed in Brolympics sandbag toss (throw 60# bag, then 40 bag twice. Mailbox (with one hand) edged out Haggis

Did an “Indian ruck” with sandbags with no specific destination, leader chose time leading and route.

Got back in time for quick Mary including flutters, Nolan Ryan’s (side plank with punches) Freddy Mercury and Superman swimmers. Squats for time as Rushers arrived

Q shared 7th birthday from bone marrow transplant this past Sunday. Talked about the appreciation of support from so many across the years. Along the ruck Zerolingo asked about what is the part of F3 I enjoy the most and I quickly stated the fellowship:being around solid men with similar thoughts and beliefs who help to encourage rather than tearing you down. It’s a joy to call you brothers.
Prayers for many in the circle, especially for Mailbox and happy birthday to Butterknife’s daughter Rachel!

COT:
In the Bible, “dying to self” is a concept that refers to the act of setting aside one’s own wants and desires to follow Jesus and live a life that is centered on God.

The world has a very different concept of living. Just look over here at this, go ahead and get this, or do that. No one is going to know, no one is going to care. The world screams at us to (fill in the blank) and you’ll be happy. Just a little more…
If it makes you feel happy, do it.

It ultimately comes down to the fact that the enemy is working triple over
time to try and make us stumble. So stand fast and choose to wake up each day, take up your cross, and follow Jesus.

“For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will save it. What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, and yet lose or forfeit their very self?”
‭‭Luke‬ ‭9‬:‭24‬-‭25‬

“I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.”
‭‭Galatians‬ ‭2‬:‭20‬

Bethel Music

Remember these lyrics:
“The enemy thought he had me, but Jesus said you are mine”
