COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA

15 PAX: Scout Team, Toms, Snookie, Blart, Handsy, Monk, Cowpoke, Doubtfire, Ergo, Little Nicky, Spock, Crayfish, Bottomless, Soybean, Four Eyes

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
1 John 5:4-5, “and this is the victory that has overcome the world – our faith. Who is it that overcomes the world except the one who believes that Jesus is the son of god?”

Not our ability or intelligence or interpersonal skills or church skills, but our belief. Hard for me to keep that first, and not to want my actions to have weight. Praying that God will help me accept the gifts he gives instead of trying to manufacture more.

 

Moleskin: Props to FNG Doubtfire for being really fast, and to my man Soybean for pushing the pace especially on the run back to startex. If you haven’t read Freed To Lead, get on it. Try to implement to “Corner to Corner” and “Mean Mean Stride” when you plan your next Q.
