BOM
The opposite of manhood isn’t womanhood, it’s boyhood (1 Corinthians 10:11 – When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things.).  The difference between manhood and boyhood is not a sense of fun and zest for life, it’s maturity.  We don’t want to loose the joy of living, but the world…our loved ones…NEED us to be men.  The need us to reject passivity, accept responsibility, lead courageously, expect a greater reward…God’s reward.  Each morning at F3 we come together to get better physically, mentally and spiritually in the context of other men.  Men teach us how to be better men, so keep coming and keep giving!

MOLESKIN
The Knoxville PAX loves to kick off the week with a bang!  Monday’s are usually well attended and this morning was no different.  Everyone showed up ready to get better.  It was a great morning…I would expect nothing less.  AYE!!

Strength and Honor,
Cap’n Crunch

Due to time, THC wanted some 6 MOM so we modified back to COP for abs. From all the Body builders and Bear crawling, YHC got really dizzy and had to sit for a second. RATCHET “The Man” stepped up and helped get ABS going. THANK YOU Ratchet for looking out for me!

Talked about my 9 Yr old asking me who I love more, him or God! It really threw me off guard when he asked that and I told him that I loved him more than God not knowing how to answer that questions without hurting his feelings or simply, I was not sure… My son told me that can’t be because God made us and that I should love God more. “WOW”!!!!!

BOM
“Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last, but we do it to get a crown that will last forever. Therefore I do not run like someone running aimlessly; I do not fight like a boxer beating the air. No, I strike a blow to my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize.”
‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭9:24-27‬ ‭

The PAX conquered the trail of tears and never looked back. Each man came out ready to work and get better this morning.

This was a cardio buffet for the PAX. Spirits were high with the Billy Zane experience…coupled with the interesting reality of having an M infiltrate the group. Queen B kicked our fannies.

Lots of spirited mumblechatter.
