CIRCLE OF TRUST:
BOM:  Showed a quick clip of Penn Jillette (an Atheist) expressing his views on proselytization. His view: if you truly believe something to be true (i.e. heaven/hell, Jesus is the only way to heaven) and don’t share your faith about that item then you are in fact hating your fellow man. He goes on to say that if he truly believes a bus is about to hit someone, then he is eventually going to help that person get out of the way. He says Christians who don’t proselytize are the equivalent of letting that same person get run over by the bus. Honestly, he’s right. This video hits close to home because it is true of many Christians. My challenge to the PAX was to take time to reflect on this. Who do you share your faith with? Do you take your DRP when it comes to sharing your faith and having tough conversations?

CIRCLE OF TRUST:

Doing more than what’s required.

One of the things that my wife and her father has taught me is to do things better than needed. It use to drive me crazy that they would be so intense on perfection and doing things exactly right or better than what was asked of them. My thought process was just get it done, get it done right, but just get it done and do it quick.

She has taught me to take my time at things when I can and really look at details and how it can be done the best way not just “done”.

Challenge: the next thing you are tasked to do, do it one to two steps better.

WORD
This last week I’ve been home alone while LOML and 2.0 are at a cabin with some other moms and kids of families we’ve known for years. Sometimes it’s nice to have that quiet, but the alone time comes with a certain set of temptations as well. It’s at that time, and others like it, when a man’s character comes through. They say that character is who you are when nobody is looking. Whether that’s when you’re home alone after a long day, at work when the boss is on vacation, or in another city on a business trip, your character comes through.

So where does this character come from? From your heart. Proverbs 4:23 says, “Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.” And Luke 6:45: “A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth evil.”
So what do we know about the heart of a man? It’s “deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked. Who can know it?” (Jeremiah 17:9) On our own the condition of our heart is pretty foul. We need the transformative power of God, as David cried out for in Psalm 51:10 “Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.” Only through dependence on Him can we become the men He has called us to be.

Moleskin
Thanks, everyone, for your patience as I tried to dig around in my shorts for my Weinke. I must find a different way to remember what’s next while my brain has not yet seen my coffee. Maybe less variety? Merkins and Burpees only. I noticed Ratchet learned from La-Z-Boy’s Q a couple weeks ago and pulled the smallest coupons in the group instead of the biggest!

Wait?!? I have shoulders?

BOM:
Vengeance
This past week, I had someone treat me unfairly, and I was pretty upset about it. My mind raced with ways I could get back at them and give them a taste of their own medicine. I didn’t, I wanted to but I didn’t.

Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.” (Romans 12:19)

The promise that frees us from an unforgiving, bitter, vengeful spirit is the promise that God will settle our accounts. He will do it more justly and more thoroughly than we ever could. Therefore, we can back off and leave room for God to work.

Moleskin: great work by the PAX this morning in the heavy humidity. We were all literally wringing out our shirts afterwards.
