Q Source: “Study”

  • Q1.11 (Study) delves into the power of DAILY exploration into the foundations of faith. At its core, this concept advocates for a deliberate and consistent commitment to studying, reflecting upon, and engaging with the principles and teachings of one’s faith tradition.
  • Faith is not static but dynamic- a living, breathing aspect of our lives
  • This notion underscores the importance of setting a time each day to immerse oneself in the wisdom and insights of sacred texts, teachings, and spiritual practices.
  • Engaging in these practices regularly cultivates a deeper understanding of our beliefs, values, and purpose in life.
  • These daily habits can lead to profound insights, personal growth, and spiritual awakening.
  • Through consistent study and reflection, individuals may gain clarity on their life’s purpose, find solace in times of adversity, and develop a greater sense of connection with the divine.
  • Challenges & obstacles arise in our daily practice: distractions, busyness, doubt, and complacency. We are encouraged to persevere in the commitment to daily study, trusting that even small, consistent efforts can yield significant spiritual rewards over time.

Questions posed to the group:

(1) What specific practices or rituals do you engage in to explore your faith on a daily basis?

  • Setting alarms throughout the day to stop and pray even for a second
  • Subscribe to a daily email that provides encouraging messages
  • Reading the morning messages of encouragement on Slack

(2) What challenges or obstacles do you experience in maintaining a daily exploration of your faith?

Enjoyed the discussion, sharing of ideas, and encouragement. Thank you for the opportunity to lead today!

Quick  Warm up with some side stradle hop and we ran around the school to meet back in the parking lot and it went something like this:

Figure 8 pattern run each corner had two exercises at them.  Each exercise done 8 rounds of 8 X each. Each run was mixed up with skips, sprints, etc.

Merkins and Crunch frogs

StarJacks and deep squats (supposedly … form)

LBC and  Freddy Mercury ( spelling maybe)

Morroccan Knights and Shoulder Press

Ran back to the circle and its all over but the crying. Thx for letting me lead

Crossroads 5-5-24

7 including myself logged some miles this morning.

Remember what you put in will come out. If you are studying good and positive things then that is the way you will be leading throughout the week. Keep pushing the rock..

Prayers for family’s of fallen officers,

Unspoken and other pax’s

Until next time

Blart….

 

Tesla’s missing post – The Goat

The forecast of rain didn’t stop 8 PAX from showing up on time in the early morning gloom.

In typical Tesla fashion, 5:30 rolled around and the Q was MIA. Having planned for this eventuality, YHC and Watts Up led the mosey across the bridge to the pavilion where the pax performed a series of exercises on the benches.

The Thing:

20x each dips, ‘Mericans, Step Ups, CDD, stacking up the ladder with a lap around the park in between each rung.

Workout Q did show up at some point during the workout and proceeded to take over the balance of the work.

We moseyed back to F&B for some Mary, COT and pledge.
