Starting Thursday, 7/27 at 0620 until 0645 after your 1^st F post (or in lieu of) join Pax for a new 2^nd / 3^rd F opportunity at Panera Bread @ Kingsly outside in the screen patio area.  This is not a bible study per se, this does not require any deep knowledge of the Word, this doesn’t even require that you know and follow God to participate.

The purpose of this AO is to give men an opportunity to roll up our sleeves and to share our burdens and struggles and to get support and encouragement from those that we sweat with every day.  The idea is that this time together will be part 2^nd F and being in community with our brothers, it will have tentacles of Whetstone and the idea that we sharpen each other (Iron Sharpening Iron) and it will have flavors of 3^rd F where we seek answers in God’s word.  In some ways, this will be an opportunity to test the “living word” for answers to every day struggles and for men to come alongside each other to encourage and strengthen each other.

The format of discussion will go something like this…

• Q will bring the topic of a struggle they are wrestling with personally. This can be a very personal struggle or trial or it can be something of this world that is bothersome to them that they can’t come to grips with.
• Pax will engage to give their perspective on their experiences/struggles with the topic
• Q will take the opportunity to look into the Word to find scripture that supports, acknowledges, gives encouragement or guidance around the topic
• Pax will give perspective on how they have handled, overcome, found hope around the topic.

Please join if you are available on 7/27 and any Thursday thereafter at 6:20 @ Panera Bread.

AYE!
