CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
With everything that has been happening in the world around I’ve been thinking about the hard conversations that we have with our 2.0s, our co-workers, and our neighbors. These conversations aren’t easy and our 2.0s will ask questions that we don’t have an answer to. I have avoided commenting and posting on social media because I would rather have these types of conversations in person just to be able to read body language and reactions. Within our families, these conversations are hard but necessary. We need to raise our 2.0s to choose to have the hard conversations, make the hard choices, do the hard things. As men of F3, we choose to do the hard thing each morning by getting up in the gloom and doing these crazy workouts. If we can do that, why can’t we men step up and lead these hard conversations in our families, our jobs, and our communities?

Make the hard choice no matter what the situation, it’s no more difficult than 100+ burpees.

THE GLOOM BELONGS TO US!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
God is not surprised by any of what is happening in our state, Country, or World. He is the same God who spoke to Moses and who sent his only Son to this Earth. He is the same God that tells the sun to rise and set each day.

Repeat this out loud: “Jesus is King and I am not”

No go and serve the King.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Don’t be a doormat. Set your boundaries. It is ok to tell people no. Jesus does not want us to be doormats. He taught His disciples how to respond to slights and attacks. Turning the other cheek means walking in forgiveness, not being vindictive, but respectful, letting things roll off. This prevents bitterness from growing within our own hearts.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Words of appreciation and kindness to others are often forgotten.  We must remember to show this appreciation to others for acts of kindness and influence.  In turn, be that influence on those where opportunity arises.  Don’t expect anything from it, just do it selflessly as Jesus taught

Moleskin:  prayers for Natty’s mom’s in grieveing the loss of her husband, for Soy Sauce as he works through some tough times and for Lifetouch, as well as Simmon’s associate pastor who is going through CA Rx.
