COT:
Look for the little triggers in your life – little temptations and sins that could grow up to ruin you. Little lust grows up to be adultery. Little indulgence grows up to be addiction. Little anger grows up to be rage. Each of those baby sins – when they are fully grown, can RUIN you. It is far easier to kill something in its infancy, than to try and kill it when it is mature. KILL those things while they are tiny. “…watch out, because sin is crouching at the door, ready to pounce on you! You must master it before it masters you.” (Genesis 4:7). You have tens of men at Shamrock who would be honored to walk that path with you and can do so confidentially, if needed. Reach out for help and accountability!

Philippians is often known as the “Epistle of Joy.”
Paul wrote this letter from jail.
What can we learn from this?
Your circumstances SHOULD NOT dictate your attitude.

COT:
Matthew 11:28-30
28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
So many times I pray that God would just take this burden away from me or someone I know. Jesus is saying that he wants to grab onto you and help you walk with that burden. He will make it easier to carry and we will grow through this exercise with him.

F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER

THA-THANG:

MARY:
Time for a little Mary at the End.  Participants called out who would give the next exercise.  Did Box cutters, LBCs, and Basilisks

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
Boxcutter also attended but doesn’t have tag yet
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
“My actions are my only true belonging.  I cannot escape the consequences of my actions.  My actions are the ground on which I stand.”  Ran across this quote.  Word addressed evaluating not what you feel you have done, but to look at what actions you have taken.  Thinking about something can often feel as real as taking the action itself.  So look back on what actions you have taken, not how much you feel you have done based on what you have been thinking about.  Ocho made the point that from this perspective, prayer is an action.
MOLESKIN:
If a similar workout is redone, recommend reducing the numbers of Clean and Press to 10, Squat jumps to 15, and all 200’s to 100 or 150.  Two reasons.  First, the clean and press and squat jump winded people very fast and often they seemed to make this modification on their own.  Second, the workout was running long so had to have folks move through early.  Reduced counts would have it run closer to the expected time.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Q101 this weekend 8/19. Hosted at The Project but open to all F3 Knoxville

A retreat is coming up this fall at Doe River Gorge.  Spots are open.  Cost is $110.
