ANNOUNCEMENTS:
COT:
Balanced Man: we as men, fathers, husbands, and leaders are all pulled on for each role everyday. Some men have let go of the pull for whatever reason. Maybe they were taught to let go when the pull was to hard, maybe they are holding on but it’s just dragging them away from everything else, maybe one thing is easier so they let go of the others to hold on to the one thing with both hands. That one thing is safe and comfortable.
What does it look like to be fully balanced?
How do we help balance those we are tethered to?
How do we show others how to be balanced?
