Coffeeteria onsite to follow!Moleskin: This week ended up being something completely different than what I ever thought. First, I didn’t remember signing up to Q more than twice in one week. When I realized there was an opportunity the LEAD 4 workouts at 4 different AOs, I thought, now this would be really neat! I wanted to at least prove personally that it could be done. Although three of the workouts were similar, there was a different combination of men at each one that made it unique and special. Men that had decided to better themselves for that particular day and come out to a workout that I was going to lead! I was truly honored! Leading one of these workouts isn’t hard at all. There just has to be a decision that you’re going to do it. A combination of exercises and reps could truly go on forever. Men, do not be afraid to lead. We have been freed to do this! That is what F3 does, for each of us. Opportunities arise every day in life. Some we take advantage of, others we avoid. Some make us better men, some will hurt us as men. We have to discern for our own best interest and the interest of those we lead. Particularly our family! A wife or a child, who is depending on us to be the best man we can be today. And then tomorrow, get up and do it again. I wanted to write this BB so each man would get credit for being at these workouts and to point out that Goldberg must in fact be a Q dodger. How could I lead 4 workouts in one week and him miss every single one? Oh well, I digress. Overall it was a great week! Aye! Grasspatch SYITG!Submitted by: Grasspatch

Thinking about the people who got on a boat searching for religious freedom: “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭5:14-16‬ ‭NIV‬‬ It’s been an honor to lead!Submitted by: Runoff
