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.

Forgiveness. Jesus spoke about us forgiving the people that sin against us multiple times. It is included in the Lord’s Prayer and again in the verses right after the Lord’s Prayer. Even the disciples had a difficult time with this commandment. Matthew 6: 14-15, Matthew 18: 21-35. I think our forgiveness is to benefit the wronged more than it is a benefit to the sinner.

R+R=R
Respect + Responsibility=Reliable

What is Respect?
When you respect everyone from your friends, classmates, parents, adults and even enemies…people will respect you.

What is Responsibility?
When you take responsibility for yourself and the things that you are supposed to do, people know that they can trust you to do your best.

So when you have respect for others and you take responsibility for what you need to do, you become Reliable.

Reliable means that people know they can count on you to do what is right and what needs to be done. That they don’t need to worry about having to tell you two times to do something. Or wonder if it will get done. They know you respect them and that you want to do your best for them.
Your dads that brought you here today want you to be reliable. We want you to be the best person you can be. God loved you so much that he made you so that you can choose what you want to do. He put your dad in charge of teaching you the right way, to be respectful, to be responsible so that you can be reliable

Cool Down at the splash Pad!

BOM: As described in the book of 1 Samuel, David did not take the advice of his peers which was to seek revenge, retaliate, and kill Saul. Although he had ample opportunity, David was wise enough to call on God for the strength and wisdom for self-control.  People will attack us and hurt us with words and actions.  As much as we really want to, don’t take the low road.  Be like David and call on God.  Don’t let someone else’s sins and mistakes cause you to be less of a man.  David was an Old Testament HIM that we could learn from.

Moleskin:  Friends don’t let their friends skip leg day.  The Men of the JUCO burned some goo this morning and should be feeling a little wobbly for a while.  The energy and effort was good this morning.  Way to go, HIM’s!
