CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

*YHC shared some personal struggles and then Spurgeon with the PAX:

Theme: Rise Up=”He is risen, I am risen in him, why then should I cleave unto the dust?  From lower loves, desires, pursuits, and aspirations, I would rise towards him.  I would, if it were possible, have neither eyes, nor ears, nor heart for sin.  To come to thee is to come home from exile, to come to land out of the raging storm, to come to rest after long labour, to come to the goal of my desires and the summit of my wishes. O raise me, draw me.  Thy grace can do it.  Send forth thy Holy Spirit to kindle sacred flames of love in my heart, and I will continue to rise until I leave life and time behind me, and indeed come away.”

*YHC encouraged and challenged the men to be ready to lay our burdens at His feet.

**PAX prayers were lifted up.

MOLESKIN:
This might be YHC’s fave total body beatdown.  Every muscle group was used. Today was a smokefest and snotwoggler, especially for YHC.  The humidity was rather oppressive.  Proud of the men who posted and finished, including our 1 FNG.  Not an easy BC by any stretch, especially for an FNG (55=RESPECT) by way of a referral from our new friends at ‘Lift Heavy-Run Long’ in Olive Branch and Olive Branch Crossfit.
