CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
John 3:16 is one of the most known scriptures in the Bible, however not many people read beyond verse 16.

16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned,but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. 19 This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. 20 Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. 21 But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of God.    John 3:16-21

If we have not believed upon Christ as our Lord and savior, then we are already dead in our sin.  We need to be reminded of our actions and that we are never truly acting in secret.   God knows what is done in secret.  Are your actions honorable when no-one else is looking?  The fact is that there is never a time when no one sees what you are doing because God sees all.  Therefore the choice is whether you will act righteously in the light or unrighteously in the darkness.  Either way, nothing is hidden from God’s eye and he will judge us each accordingly.

Circuits of Courage

THE SCENE: Just about perfect weather – 50 degrees, no wind

F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER

WARM-O-RAMA:

  • SSH IC x 25
  • Cherry Pickers IC x 10
  • Tempo Squats IC x 12
  • Merkins IC (4 ct) x 15
  • 2 sets of 5 burpees OYO as we toured the circuit

THA-THANG:

We did a circuit on the grinder (1 station at each corner) with 1 station at the flag pole, and another at the pavalon. Each station has 2 exercises listed. Pretty simple – pair up with a battle buddy and do 20 reps of both exercises listed and move to the next station until time is called. Ended up making it through 3 rounds.

  • Station 1: Mountain Climbers (4 ct.) and Squat Jumps
  • Station 2 (flag pole): Dry Docks and Flutter Kicks (4 ct.)
  • Station 3 (pavalon): Bench Rows and Derkins
  • Station 4: Supermans and Hello Dollies (4 ct.)
  • Station 5: Shoulder Press and Bicep Curls (both exercises with the supplied rocks)
  • Station 6: Merkins and Lunges

Mosey to base of Little Baby Hill. One partner runs the hill and does 2 burpees at the top, while the other does squats at the bottom. Rinse & repeat – 3 times up the hill each.

38 strong this morning – No FNG’s

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

When one man acts courageously, it strengthens the spines of other men. It took courage for Peaches and Food Truck to share their testimonies with us at the 3rd F event on Saturday. By doing so, they allowed our small group time to be more open and allowed us as men to be more vulnerable with each other because they had the courage to be open themselves.

When we come out each morning to the gloom, we can either choose to push through the suck and make our brothers push themselves harder and farther than they imagined, or we can choose to half ass it and settle for mediocrity. When I see a brother pushing himself to his max, something stirs inside me that makes me want to push myself harder as well. Don’t be the guy who waits for someone else to step up before stepping up yourself. We’re called as HIMs to be the guy that strengthens the spines of other men through our actions.

We reap what we sow, but not in the same season.

Keep your eyes fixed ahead and do simply do the next right thing.  The fruit will come, in it’s due season.

– The delayed fruit causes us to be short-sighted, and we pay a price for it in the long haul.
– It is so easy to pursue unrighteous, unhealthy, “bad” things and hard to pursue righteous, healthy, good things.
– This is why long term goals couple with short term grit is critical for growth.
– Keep your eyes fixed ahead and do simply do the next right thing.  The fruit will come, in it’s due season.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Peer Pressure vs. Accountability.  Apply God’s law to what you do; not what the world tells you to do.  Example: watch The Push on Netflix, a reality show about peer pressure and where it can lead.  Example: Dietrich Bonhoeffer during the rise of the Nazi and persecution of the Jews, he did not succumb to peer pressure, rather stayed accountable to God’s law and ultimately died for his actions.  Read the Ten Commandment for a great example of a Law to stay accountable.
