CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I encourage you brothers to go!  Find an adventure!  Do big what you don’t know or haven’t done before.

Don’t be like me – stuck in the familiar; losing my sense of adventure; forgetting the joy and power adventure brings to life.

Be “Wild at Heart” as John Eldredge describes it.

….and share it (the adventure and your wildness) with your loved ones and kids.

….so they won’t forget – your adventures together and how to be wild at heart themselves.
MOLESKIN:
Be in prayer for @Slide Rule and his family, as the Lord called his mother home this week.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Talked about keeping good habits in place.  The past 3 weeks have been chaotic for me:  vacation, family in town, etc.  It’s all led to bad food choices, bad sleep choices, less workouts than usual, and just general laziness.   It always surprises me just how little it takes for life to get in the way of my healthy habits.  I always think I won’t be affected, but I always am to some degree.  Be cognizant of the good habits you’ve developed in your life and work to keep them a priority:  time with your family, your diet, your daily quiet time, your exercise routine, your sleep.

MOLESKIN:
