7s on the Hill:

PAX ventured over to a long dark neighborhood hill for a round of 7s with Burpees and Body Weight Squats.

We took the long way back to the AO to venture over to the troll bridge. The rain forced the Troll to flee from the rising creek, but in his hurry to leave he forgot to his favorite bag. Through personal communication with the troll, PAX were granted permission to pass through the bridge if we followed the workout in his bag.

PAX were numbered 1-6. When it was the PAX turn, he had to run down to the troll bridge from the AO and retrieve the exercise.  Upon return, the next number would complete the number of reps for the specified exercise, before venturing down to retrieve the next exercise. Remaining PAX would complete as many reps as possible before starting the next exercise.

Exercises completed (minimum reps)

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Shout out to Drifter for powerful testimony on Saturday for 3rd F. It really was awesome and inspiring to listen to. It challenged me in my own faith to not just sweep things under the rug but admit faults and confessions to believers. We should all strive to give testimony in life as we do not know who we influence with our words.

It was my first day back in church in months this past weekend as well. I had been out of my routine, stuck in my own rut without normalcy I had before. I lacked obedience during this month which led to running astray from God and seeking personal addictions. During this time I got away from scripture, prayer, and ultimately fellowship among faithful believers. Consistency and repetition are key in relationship with God. Immerse yourself in the scripture, pray daily, and talk with believers. It was during this time away that I became angry and waited for God to intervene instead of seeking to be faithful myself. Ended with one of my favorite scripture: Isaiah 6:8. Pray for God to use you and send you to complete His work rather than always seeking something in return.

MOLESKIN:
Isaiah 6:8

Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?” And I said, “Here am I. Send me!”

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Reflected on hardship hill and overall support and teamwork experienced. It was an awesome event where everyone picked each other up and kept going. As Christians and men of faith, we are called to pick up our brothers and sisters in this life and offer support. We never know how we may influence others with small words of encouragement in this life. A little may go a long way and be what someone needs to hear in time of need.
MOLESKIN:

Ecclesiastes 4:10

10 If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up.

John 15:12-13

12 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. 13 Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.
