Game Plan – Proverbs 13

Leave a comment

EK

Evel Knievel took us through Proverbs 13 this morning and we explored how our words have power to bring others up and/or bring them down.

How are we using our words and conversations?? Do we shy away from opportunities to encourage or lift others up or do we step up and put ourselves out there for others.

Also, we learned we can be financially comfortable but spiritually poor and vice versa. Where are you? What are you doing with the resources God has given you?

Is it ok to be Rich Financially and Rich Spiritually? How to we tend to those that are Poor both financially and spiritually??

Here are some key verses that stood out this week:

13:7 One pretends to be rich, yet has nothing: another pretends to be poor, yet has great wealth. – Rich/Rich or Poor/Poor or Rich/Poor or Poor/Rich…where are you??

13:22 A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children, but the sinner’s wealth is laid up for the righteous. – Real wealth is what we pass on from our hearts not our wallets!!

Chick filet was a great change of scenery and comfortable setting.

It will be home for Game Plan going forward and the staff there was very accommodating.

Have a great week and see you all at The Fort!

FYI on the Real Evel Knievel: Best jump he ever made!!!

Game Plan – lottery winners

Leave a comment

15 men gathered to discuss Proverbs chapter 12 this morning.

We took a lesson from Coach Gibbs, that in the game of life there is no better game plan than the Bible.

Some of Solomon’s key verses from this week:

4 An excellent wife is the crown of her husband,
but she who brings shame is like rottenness in his bones. Thank your wives for keeping you on the path.

9 Better to be lowly and have a servant
than to play the great man and lack bread (sense). Don’t be that guy!!

28 In the path of righteousness is life,
and in its pathway there is no death. Making wise choices has its benefits!!

Join us next Friday at Baxter Chickfilet 6:00am!

31 Pax posted at a foggy Fort looking for a motivating start to Thursday.

COT

Naked Man Moleskin

Thursday WEP is still the best show in town offering something for everyone.  Runners came back in exhausted and Laces In returned unable to give high fives.

We got a whiff of a name change … and the new name was eloquently presented by Red Banjo= Welcome to Genesis (nothing to do with Phil Collins and everything to do with the first book of the B-I-B-L-E)…

Today was the first time that I got requests for bomb jacks to give the PAX shoulders a much needed break. I enjoyed the morning and appreciate the effort as many PAX pushed beyond their comfort level. Drink plenty of water and remember to be a better man today than you were yesterday.

Cool Runnings

Leave a comment

The weather was perfect and the feedback on Decibel’s Tuesday beat down had the group off to great start. 25 Pax’s enjoy a late September morning in August, cutting down the sweat and increasing the intensity.

The Thang: Laces In: Q – CSPAN
Extremely slow walk to circle up.
A few minutes of stretching, low speed calisthenics, and some side-Santini-hops for good measure.

Slow mosey to playground.
5 sets OYO = 10 pull-ups, 10 merkins, 20 dips with a lap around playground.
Very little chatter

Slow mosey to WEP hill without a statue and many wonderful trees with leaves.
Several series of lounges, bunny hops and duck walk with rifle straight out in front of you with a 50% run back down
Crowd woke up
Split into partners with races uphill over a series of different events and speeds all with a 50% rest on the downhill.
Plenty of calisthenics and boxing moves to offset the heavy breathing or so called rest period

Trucker got us for 10 bomb jacks – “That’s what….”

Crab Cakes was willing to knock Fun House out to win final sprint up the hill, unsure who won that fight.

Clydesdale: Q – Menthol

5.5 mile run at ~ 9 min pace.

Gazelles: Q – Red Banjo

5.5 mile run ~7:30 pace with 4 hill repeats at the end –
10 merkins
10 squats
10 side-Santini-hops
between each hill repeat.
