11 Men that I pray are striving to be HIMs! Glad to see Footsie back out again.
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Why are you here?
I started asking myself that question about 3 months after joining F3. My initial reason for coming out to F3 to prove to myself that I was fit enough to keep up. (Spoiler Alert: I wasn’t!) My hurt ego kept me coming those first 3 months as I pushed to get faster and stronger. I was no doubt here for the wrong reason.
Today, my reason for coming to F3 is different, I’m here because it makes me a better man, a better father, a better husband, and even a better Christian. The workout is an added bonus to the BOM & COT that offer the true reward for rolling out of bed at an unreasonable time. F3’s purpose is to “invigorate male community leadership.” F3 is also a “Faith” based group. If you read up on that aspect per F3 nation it does not define “Faith” as Christianity or even religion, but as a belief in something bigger than oneself. However, I’m blessed that here at JUCO each member of the PAX has shared their own belief that Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior. This has allowed for an even greater impact from the PAX on my life as they each share Biblical messages that push us to be better Christians and strive to be HIMs.
A note on High Impact Men (HIMs). We use this term frequently when referring to our PAX in F3, but let’s take a moment to reflect on what this term means. A High Impact Man can be defined by immeasurable qualities, integrity, honesty, loyalty, servitude, leadership, humbleness, meekness, etc. In my mind, the true HIM need only be defined by one single word, Godly. Any man that can be defined as such will inherently be a High Impact Man. I’m urging each member of the JUCO PAX to strive for Godliness in all that you do.
1 Timothy 4:8
“For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.”
MOLESKIN:
Judge Judy took over as the F3 Knoxville N’antan on Saturday. I shared some of his message and challenge with the JUCO PAX and encouraged them to pray for Judge as he takes on this burden.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Workout at the Boys and Girls Club this Wednesday.
