HIM…..HIgh Impact Man but as detention said so well on one of his Qs. HIM also stands for:

H= Humble. Be humble and don’t put your self first. I= Invest, invest in others that surround you. As we invest in our selves during the workout, hopefully it will give us the ability to invest in others. M= Mentally Tough. You have to be Mentally tough and be strong to be humble and invest in others. This is always on my mind ever since Detention talked about being a HIM one morning. Its something I take we me everyday and try to apply in all that I do.

THANK YOU DETENTION!! You are a HIM

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Having a goal and working hard for it.
In the beginning of this workout all of us had a goal of finishing. We worked hard, we sweat, we even got a little bit dirty. Such is life. We are going to have to work hard, we are going to have to sweat during tough times, we are going to have crap covering us from head to toe at times. We may want to give up, we may want to get mad, we may want to yell at God. But, we need to stay strong and we need to know what is waiting for us at the end. Today it’s a nice feeling of accomplishment, in life, it’s eternity in heaven with God.

“I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.”
‭‭Philippians‬ ‭3:14‬ ‭

I watched Clemson Head Football Coach Dabo Sweeney discuss how to handle situations where players did not stand during the National Anthem.  His points were interesting on a topic that has been heavy on my heart.  I had the following two points for us to reflect on:

Points to reflect on:

1.) God gave us two great commandments, first to, “Love the Lord our God with all of our heart, all of our mind, and all of our strength”.  Secondly, “Love your neighbor as yourself”.  God didn’t say love people that are your same race, religion, sexuality, etc., etc., fill in the blank but, God did say LOVE your neighbor as yourself.  We do not have to all agree with other’s actions but we must LOVE one another.

2.) To see change we have to look in the mirror because ultimately we all want good in this nation and world but we have different ideas of what that looks like so to accompany our immediate prayers let us also use the simplistic yet effective formula of LOVE and KINDNESS for our fellow man and change starts at home and spreads to impact others.

 

No Mosey, All Business!

CIRCLE OF TRUST / BOM
Part of our growth is spiritual.  One observation YHC has made recently is that most men seem restrained and bored on Sunday mornings at church.  Rather than their faith igniting them, it seems to be hindering them from being who they are.  This is the exact opposite of God’s intent for us as men.  Our faith is not meant to fence us in, but fuel us for a life of impact and significance!  My faith informs me that there are no idle moments, everything has eternal significance.  Even the most mundane experiences, when viewed though faith have potential to be life-changing.  It’s about perspective.  It’s about seeing our lives as more than a quest for self-comfort and self-satisfaction.  It’s about seeing life as Jesus did…an adventure where we are part of something greater than ourselves.  We are meant to be life-givers, servant-leaders…HIMs!

Choose today to view your faith from the lens of what you give rather than receive.

It was a beautiful, clear, cool Monday morning and the PAX were out in force!  No mosey today, all business.  The men busted it for a solid 45 minutes and it was a great start to the week.  We also had a guest, cameraman from WVLT news was on site to get some video for a story they will be doing later this week.  No Sad Clown Is Safe!!!

The opposite of manhood isn’t womanhood, it’s boyhood!  Our goal as HIMs is to always be moving forward own the road of maturity (RFP).  What F3 has taught me is that growth (physical, relational and spiritual) comes through challenge, consistency and comradery.

  • Physical: Take your DRP (Daily Red Pill)
    • Challenge – Get up and get out in the gloom!
    • Consistency – Daily
    • Comradery – the PAX
  • Relational: No lone ranger
    • Challenge – Reject passivity and engage with family, friends, co-workers and neighbors
    • Consistency – Daily
    • Comradery – the PAX
  • Spiritual: Luke 9:23, “And he said to all, ‘If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.’”
    • Challenge – Obedience and faithfulness
    • Consistency – Daily
    • Comradery – the PAX and Jesus himself (“follow me”)

MOLESKIN
This morning we had a special guest from a local news affiliate.  He came to do an online piece on F3.  He asked if I thought I could get a good sized group out on a Wednesday morning at 5:30am…61 PAX including 3 FNGs answered with a resounding “HELL YEA!”  For me, this sums up F3 Knoxville.  Over the pas 18 months this PAX has set the bar and then surpassed it when it comes to heart, passion, and dedication.  They work hard, play hard and always have each other’s six.  There is absolutely no questions…I’m a better man for being a part of this PAX, and Knoxville is a better city due to what these men are doing in each other.
