ANNOUNCEMENTS:

COT:

John 18:37-38 Then Pilate said to him, “So you are a king?” Jesus answered, “You say that I am a king. For this purpose I was born and for this purpose I hae come into the world – to bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth listens to my voice.” Pilate said to him, “What is truth?” After he had said this, he went back outside to the Jews and told them, “I find no guilt in him.”

Today, we live in a world of information, misinformation, and deep fakes. It is hard to know what thr truth is. Pilate also had that problem. There is an old adage “Perception equals reality.” This was Pilate’s problem.

The Jews perceived that Jesus was guilty and would not be satisfied if Pilate let him go no matter what the truth was. This problem exists in the world today as well.

If only we had an objective source of Truth. Luckily we do: the Bible. The Word of God. In it we can ground ourselves in the Truth of what is right and wrong.

We’re focusing on the “Peer Led” aspect today as we transition from one peer watching over our little group to another watching over it.

As we begin remember:
– I do not know your injuries, so modify anything we do today to work best for you.
– But do not cheat your body or your mind out of a solid beatdown this morning. Push yourself, but don’t hurt yourself.
– I’ll have my phone. If we need help at any point, we can call and get it.

– Willie Mays Hayes – 10 each side
– Arm Circles F/B – 10/10

MARY:
Shoulder Taps

COT:
2 Timothy 2:2 “And what you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses entrust to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.”

Gentlemen, I’ve had the privilege of watching over our cadre of High Impact men for the past year. Trying to be the chief encourager, the head organizer, and the caretaker of our flag. Today I’m handing that honor off to another man who has stepped up to serve our group.

Men like Erector, Snaggletooth, Kickflip, Mathlete, & Biohack have all carried our flag and taken a turn as our point men.
Those were big shoes to fill, but great examples to emulate.

But there are things about this group that we need to keep in mind:
• F3 is not about its visible leaders—it’s about every man stepping up and stepping in.
• We all share the weight. And the weight is real But this is not a one-man show.
• Peer-led means we trust each other. We challenge each other. And we regularly give away leadership to grow stronger.

Stepping up is not easy. But TomTom has done it so well. He is a good man and an athlete. Since he’s been with us, he’s modeled leadership skills in beatdowns and been a key voice in making The Project the kind of AO that is setting pace for all of F3 nation.

So it’s my honor to give TomTom charge of our flag today and I am looking forward to being here for all the ways he helps us, encourages us, and leads us.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

COT:
I discussed turning 59 and how I couldn’t help but reflect on my life. Thinking back to all of the good times and bad times, good decisions, bad decisions, successes, failures, happy memories and heart aches. Everything I have ever done or felt has shaped me into the person I am today. Even the heart ache has molded me. My hope and prayer is that i am a good man, a Godly man, a good friend, husband and father. I then read Joshua 14: 10-12.

COT:
As our children go back to school, we should remember what they go through and how they feel so we can support them.

Additionally, we should remember Proverbs 22:6: “Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.” This is a charge laid upon us as fathers. We cannot outsource this to the school nor the church. We must train them. The responsibility likes with us.
