Who are you trying to please?

Great weather for a run/ruck and 9 PAX took advantage this morning and put in work at The Sword.

Discussion this morning was on Galatians 1:10 – “ For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ.”

The Sword 3/18/24

We started the week off right with some running, then a small word from Colossians 3: 1-12. It further emphasized the discussion on “Jester” the day before at Crossroads.

Mission Work

We had runners and ruckers at The Sword on Monday. Some “smartsacked”. After words we discussed praying for God’s word to advance and the people out in the world doing his work. While we are all called to do it I’m talking about those that sacrifice and risk their lives to do it. We discussed Thessalonians 3:1-5 and Ephesians 3:14-21. Check these verses out. Spend some time studying and rereading the Ephesians verses. It is powerful and has a lot going on in it.

Run the Race

8 PAX came out for a run to start the week off right.

“Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us.”

What a Difference a Knee Makes (The Sword 3/6/23)

Good crowd at The Sword this morning.  PAX were off in all different directions running, walking, rucking, you name it.  We reconvened at 06:00 for the word on submission to God.  The group was asked to consider when was the last time they truly submitted to His will.  Then they were asked how it would feel if we dropped to both knees instead of just one and the change it would have on our frame of mind.  We concluded with a ball of men on their knees asking for God’s blessing and favor as we lifted prayers and praises!
