The Speedway Joker

THE SCENE:

It was an unusually warm and muggy morning at the Speedway and some Jokers came to play a card game.

F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:

Gathered at flag.

SSH 20x

Cherry Pickers 10x

Baby Arm Circles 10x forward 10x backward

THA-THANG:

Moseyed around the track and then around the playground. Ended at the playground where I put all of my cards on the table. The Pax would pair off and each member would draw a card to reveal the number of each exercise they would accomplish. Number cards = number of exercises on card, Ace = 10 exercises, face cards = 15.

The exercises in order:

• Merkins

• Big Boy Sit-ups

• Dips

The Pax that drew the card would start on those exercises in order while his partner ran a lap around the playground (drew a 5 = 5 merkins, 5 BBS, 5 dips, then draw another card). When the runner Pax returned, he would take over and finish out the “hand” that is partner was on and then draw another card. Then rinse and repeat.

The Twist:

when a Joker was drawn, that pax would yell Joker and everyone had to stop and do 20 burpees.

MARY:

Moseyed back to AO where we circled up and did

• Little Baby Crunches = 1 min

• Plank = 30 seconds

• Stargazers = 1 min

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

“Imitate God, therefore, in everything you do, because you are his dear children. Live a life filled with love, following the example of Christ. He loved us and offered himself as a sacrifice for us, a pleasing aroma to God.”

‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭5:1-2‬ ‭NLT‬‬

As Christians, we are called to show Gods love. It is so important in our day and age to lead by example. Lead the way Jesus leads, by love! We need to love one another, love the outcasts, love the people that are hated, love the oppressed, love the marginalized, love the minorities, love the people you disagree with, etc, the list can go on and on. But we need to love as Christ loved!

As a group of men, we have to lead by example, we have to stand up and show Christs love. It is extremely important that with all of the division, hatred, bullying, etc, that others see Christ through us. The easiest way for a stranger to see Christ in our life, is by love!

You never know how impactful one act of kindness/love can have on someone who is having a bad day, week, month, or year! By showing love, you could possibly change their outlook on their struggle or bad situation. So do something nice for a stranger today! Show Gods love! It could be buying food or coffee in the drive thru for the car behind you, opening a door, smiling at someone, letting a car turn in front of you when you are in traffic, genuinely asking some one how they are and how you could help or pray for them, the list is endless! But by doing one little act of kindness we can show Gods love, little by little! Remember, there is good out there, so be the change that you want to see in the world! Show Christ’s love!

Be Love!
