Referenced Qsource to talk about why Fitness is the 1st F…
Self control is the foundation upon which all other areas are built.

COT:

John 18:37-38 Then Pilate said to him, “So you are a king?” Jesus answered, “You say that I am a king. For this purpose I was born and for this purpose I hae come into the world – to bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth listens to my voice.” Pilate said to him, “What is truth?” After he had said this, he went back outside to the Jews and told them, “I find no guilt in him.”

Today, we live in a world of information, misinformation, and deep fakes. It is hard to know what thr truth is. Pilate also had that problem. There is an old adage “Perception equals reality.” This was Pilate’s problem.

The Jews perceived that Jesus was guilty and would not be satisfied if Pilate let him go no matter what the truth was. This problem exists in the world today as well.

If only we had an objective source of Truth. Luckily we do: the Bible. The Word of God. In it we can ground ourselves in the Truth of what is right and wrong.

We’re focusing on the “Peer Led” aspect today as we transition from one peer watching over our little group to another watching over it.

As we begin remember:
– I do not know your injuries, so modify anything we do today to work best for you.
– But do not cheat your body or your mind out of a solid beatdown this morning. Push yourself, but don’t hurt yourself.
– I’ll have my phone. If we need help at any point, we can call and get it.

– Projectivators – (number of guys)
– Willie Mays Hayes – 10 each side
– Arm Circles F/B – 10/10
– Tempo Merkins – 10

MOSEY TO THE BLOCKS –
3 burpee or 15 squat “buy in”

At the Blocks

200 Heavy Squat/Good Mornings
300 LBCs/Heavy Big Boys

MOSEY BACK TO THE FLAG –
Which ever you didn’t do, you now dow for a “CASH OUT”
3 burpee or 15 squat

MARY:
Shoulder Taps

COT:
2 Timothy 2:2 “And what you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses entrust to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.”

Gentlemen, I’ve had the privilege of watching over our cadre of High Impact men for the past year. Trying to be the chief encourager, the head organizer, and the caretaker of our flag. Today I’m handing that honor off to another man who has stepped up to serve our group.

Men like Erector, Snaggletooth, Kickflip, Mathlete, & Biohack have all carried our flag and taken a turn as our point men.
Those were big shoes to fill, but great examples to emulate.

But there are things about this group that we need to keep in mind:
• F3 is not about its visible leaders—it’s about every man stepping up and stepping in.
• We all share the weight. And the weight is real But this is not a one-man show.
• Peer-led means we trust each other. We challenge each other. And we regularly give away leadership to grow stronger.

Stepping up is not easy. But TomTom has done it so well. He is a good man and an athlete. Since he’s been with us, he’s modeled leadership skills in beatdowns and been a key voice in making The Project the kind of AO that is setting pace for all of F3 nation.

So it’s my honor to give TomTom charge of our flag today and I am looking forward to being here for all the ways he helps us, encourages us, and leads us.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

COT:
I discussed turning 59 and how I couldn’t help but reflect on my life. Thinking back to all of the good times and bad times, good decisions, bad decisions, successes, failures, happy memories and heart aches. Everything I have ever done or felt has shaped me into the person I am today. Even the heart ache has molded me. My hope and prayer is that i am a good man, a Godly man, a good friend, husband and father. I then read Joshua 14: 10-12.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Proverb 27

17(a) As iron sharpens iron is one of the mantras of F3 but there is more wisdom from Solomon in Proverb 27. Here are some of them:

1 Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring forth. (Be humble, don’t be overconfident. Be on guard.)

2 Let another man praise you, and not your own mouth; a stranger, and not your own lips. (Be aware of and avoid self praise. It means much more when it’s from an outside source.)

4 Wrath is cruel and anger a torrent, but who is able to stand before jealousy? (Jealousy has a power and destructive capability that goes beyond wrath and anger. The latter are usually from being provoked while jealousy is more secret and buried within our mental darkness.)

7 A satisfied soul loathes the honeycomb. (When our life is satisfied from a material or physical aspect we find it easy to reject things that are usually pleasing to us. Instead we need to fill our hearts and souls with God and His spiritual truths.)

18 Whoever keeps the fig tree will eat its fruit. (The worker is worthy of the fruit of his labor and not just literally.)

20 Hell and Destruction are never full; so the eyes of man are never satisfied. (Our longing for things we desire will never be satisfied. The answer is to have the need channeled and satisfied in God and what He provides.)

15-16 A continual dripping on a very rainy day and a contentious woman are alike; whoever restrains her restrains the wind, and grasps oil with his right hand. (Instead of trying to change a contentious woman, a wise and godly husband loves her as Jesus loves his church and leaves the changing up to God.)

But getting back to Verse 17, the entire verse reads, “ As iron sharpens iron, so a man sharpens the countenance of his friend.” Just as the striking and friction of iron against iron can sharpen one another, so it is with each of us. We should not shy away from giving and receiving critical and constructive criticism. Don’t let a brother walk alone, sharpen him with godly communications. Walk together in mutual concern for each other’s burdens, worries, and temptations.
