How long can you prevent your Extinction?

Not a runner?  Come out and Ruck or Walk.  Take a few laps and then grab a seat on the patio to cheer on our runners.  Bring some extra cash for a chance to win big in the 50/50 drawing.

A word about F3 Cardinal.

He was a pastor. It says this in the article about him.

“That’s soul-filling, God-honoring, kingdom-building work, but it also left him lonely. Many of his friends were also his church members, and he needed relationships with men outside of that realm. He couldn’t always be everyone’s pastor. He needed more peer-to-peer relationships, and that’s what F3 gave him. He found men to do life with, to share life with, to conquer struggles with.”

Remember that someone out there needs you. The man next to you may be there because you are there.

Pause for The Word

Mark 5:25 speaks of a woman with an issue of blood who had spent all she had seeking help from every doctor she could find, with no relief. She hears that Jesus is coming to town and believes that if she can get close enough to “touch the hem of His garment” she will be made whole. We all have issues and yes, you should seek advice of your F3 Brothers, seek help from professionals … but before you do any of that, seek Jesus, and be made whole!
