Five Core Principles:
1. Free
2. Open to All Men
3. Always Outdoors
4. Ends in Circle of Trust
5. PEER LED

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.

– Projectivators – (number of guys)
– Willie Mays Hayes – 10 each side
– Arm Circles F/B – 10/10
– Tempo Merkins – 10

THE THANG:
MOSEY TO THE BLOCKS –
3 burpee or 15 squat “buy in”

At the Blocks
PEER LED DORA – Three Levels, Two Rounds
One of you will do an exercise, counting reps. The other will do a carry.
When the carrier comes back, call out the count you’re on and switch roles.

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.

COT:
Read quote from the Independence Day movie and compared it to Independence Day quotes from our founding fathers George Washington, John Adam’s, Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin. The movie quote does get you hyped up to fight for our freedom, and the founding fathers did the same but each added something about God and Christ and our duty there. Speaking about God alongside everything was expected as they understood that without God they would not have anything. It is right, honorable and respectful to be proud of our country, flag and our Independence Day; however, we should never want independence from God. We in Christ are happy servants to a loving God and Savior.

COT:
Much of the world today celebrates pride during the month of June. Besides the particular context of this month, pride is often seen as a good attribute. We are proud of our children’s accomplishments. We are proud to be an American! We take pride in our work. These all sound pretty harmless and are not necessarily about ourselves. However, a small twist in the words makes these much different. “My children are better than yours”. “My country is better than yours.” “I am better at my job than you are, or I have a better job than you do.” Though pride is celebrated by many, it is condemned by God.
‭Proverbs 16:5 NASB1995‬
[5] Everyone who is proud in heart is an abomination to the Lord; Assuredly, he will not be unpunished.
‭Proverbs 16:18 NASB1995‬
[18] Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before stumbling.
‭1 John 2:15-16 NASB1995‬
[15] Do not love the world nor the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. [16] For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world.
Use these words of God to guide our hearts when it comes to pride. Don’t let it destroy lives and don’t let it separate you from God.
