CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

“for while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.”

‭‭1 Timothy‬ ‭4:8‬ ‭ESV‬‬

http://bible.com/59/1ti.4.8.esv

We are saved by grace, but we should be just as (or more) intentional towards growing in Godliness as we are towards growing in physical fitness. This doesn’t mean start fartsacking more often. It means learn from how you are able to focus on physical fitness, to stop fartsacking on your relationship with God.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Spoke about intentional leadership on my NYE Q.  The same is true now.  If we are not moving forward, we are being stagnant.  If we are being stagnant then we are being left behind.  The downtown AO has unlimited potential and if we want to see it grow we must cultivate it and that happens from stepping outside our comfort zones and intentionally leading here.  Challenge this AO to two VQ’s next week at the Big Ball AO.  If guys have questions, get with any of us who have Q experience as a resource or even as a Co-Q.
MOLESKIN:
Prayer request were made.

FISH ON! As we grow, its about getting more FNGs out to join F3. That does not mean your all over the sadclown with lots of pessure to join us. Sometimes, its just throwing the line out from time to time, let the sadclown swim around the bait for a while. Eventually a sadclown gets hungry and takes the bait! Once hooked, reel them in and keep them!

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
Five men.
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Discussed contemplative prayer.  It is different than prayer that we might otherwise practice.  Words may not be said, but instead we focus on God, thinking of perhaps just one thing, such as His power, glory or grace.  We may also repeat one prayer thought during the day as we go about our business of living.  An example might be saying silently to oneself, “God, thank you for your loving grace” occasionally throughout the day.  In this way, we are more likely to experience God throughout the day, not forgetting His presence in our lives.
