MOLESKIN:
I planned on running this Q up on the soccer field across the street, but it was so dark I couldn’t see the cones when they were 10 feet away.
Oh well… Whatever kind of grass that is near the AO smells pretty nice. I guess it’s whatever they put on there to cover up the odor of the dog excrement…
Thanks to Mayberry for today’s title. Definitely appreciated the “I love hate you right now, Waxjob” toward the end of the beatdown.

  • jog/sprints x4 the whole parking lot
  • Indian run back to the AO and stop by the play ground
  • music and cones! 4 cones to make one big box. With Chumbawumba playing, do SSH and when they say “I get knocked down” do a broad jump burpee to each cone. the key was to broad jump good enough to make it around the cones before the song was finished. Usually, you SSH/burpee in place the whole song but not this time. it pays to be a winner!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Since my 2.0 goes to a Christian school, she has a verse to memorize nearly every week, and has ever since kindergarten. We’ve always used the drive time to school to learn that verse together. I really appreciate the time to dwell on the Word and let it sink in.
This week’s passage was Jeremiah 29:11-14. Verse 11 is pretty popular, but the one that caught me was verse 13: “You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart.” We’re all seeking God, whether we know it or not. Everyone is looking to fill that hole that only He can. Seek Him with all your heart, and He’s promised that you will find Him.
MOLESKIN:
Shoulda started my watch when I laid out the course… Only got credit for half the miles I ran this morning!
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Thanks to everyone who brought snacks for Wesley House. Delivery this week!

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA

10 total, including visitor from Nolensville “Mic Drop”

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

How do we learn best?
By reading instructions or by watching how it is done by someone that knows the process?
Are we a study God’s word culture or are we a do God’s word culture? By doing rather that studying, we develop a culture that newcomers and the young feed off of. They learn by watching the faithful not by studying.
Lets go be a “Do God’s word” and not just a “study God’s word”

MOLESKIN:

Welcome Mic Drop from Nolensville TN.  He will be “dropping” by once or twice a month.

We went from mist, to rain, to sleet, to snow today.
