3rd F Word of the Month For April: Sacrifice

  • QIC: Cornerstone
  • When: 04/01/2026
  • Posted In: 3rd f

Spiritual View:
Sacrifice sits at the center of faith. Jesus modeled leadership through self-giving, not self-preservation, showing that true strength is found in laying down self-interest for a greater purpose. Sacrifice refines the heart, sharpens obedience, and produces impact that reaches far beyond the individual. What we willingly give up today often becomes the soil for lasting fruit tomorrow.

Non-Religious View:
Every strong outcome requires tradeoffs. Time, effort, comfort, and ego—something always gets laid down to move forward. Sacrifice isn’t loss; it’s a deliberate investment in growth, discipline, and long-term gain. This month asks a simple but demanding question: What are you willing to give up to become who you need to be?

3rd F Word of the Month For March: Ownership

  • QIC: Cornerstone
  • When: 03/01/2026
  • Posted In: 3rd f

Spiritual View

Ownership is stewardship. God entrusts each man with influence, responsibilities, and choices—and He calls us to be accountable for how we handle them. Taking ownership doesn’t mean perfection; it means humility, repentance when we miss the mark, and a willingness to course-correct. Real growth happens when we stop deflecting and start owning our obedience, our failures, and our next step forward.

Non-Religious View

Ownership is leadership currency. Strong men don’t blame circumstances, teammates, or timing—they adapt, respond, and take responsibility for outcomes. This month is about standing in your lane, doing the work, and owning both the results and the lessons. When a man owns his role fully, trust grows, excuses shrink, and momentum follows.

3rd F Word of the Month For February: Brotherhood

Spiritual View:
God designed men for community, not isolation. Scripture speaks repeatedly about bearing one another’s burdens, sharpening each other, and standing together in both struggle and victory. Brotherhood isn’t convenience—it’s commitment. It requires vulnerability, consistency, and showing up even when it’s uncomfortable. This month reminds us that faith is strengthened when it’s lived out alongside other men.

Non-Religious View:
Isolation weakens men. Brotherhood strengthens them. Strong relationships don’t happen accidentally—they’re built through shared effort, accountability, and trust. This month challenges men to move past surface-level connections and invest intentionally in the men beside them. Growth accelerates when you’re surrounded by men who push you forward and refuse to let you drift.

A Celebration Trip to the Islands

WARMUP: Tried and true — SSH, Windmill, Mtn climber, down dog, up dog, etc. mosey to Lowes
THE THANG: Pax mustered near island at far entrance of Lowes. Completed a routine of doing some form of upper body exercise x15 at front Island, moved in j varying forms to next island away from store for some core exercise x15z then returned to original island and planked. Then we moved to the next set of islands.

During each plank session one pax shared a personal note of celebration for the day, ranging from a VQ to a wife’s return home from 2 weeks of travel to a 2.0’s successful landing of a new job.

After doing all sets of islands, we moseyed to the end of the retail strip and pax formed two teams for a relay race of bear crawls and crawl bears.

Mosey home.
MARY: included throughout
ANNOUNCEMENTS: yes
COT: yes as always

I love the spirit and energy at Slow Burn and the pax didn’t disappoint. Lots of mumblechatter and laughs for 45 mins. Not only is this season dark, cold and heavy but the general tone in the world seems the same. Grateful to see the pax take timeout to celebrate and identify an area of light in their life.

We’re called to be the light amid the darkness. Go light the way men!

Thanks Peach Stand and congrats on 3 yrs in the Gloom!
