It’s Monday, men. Are you disciplining your focus? Are you focusing your discipline? People in our sphere are counting on us and our steady strength. These are just a few thoughts God has been leading me with the last couple weeks. ⚔️💙⚔️ This is part of God’s masculine leadership. His feminine leadership will be covered later, as he has been showing me—primarily through my wife’s spiritual gifts. I feel like an ape for learning this at 45 and not 25 … but because of grace, I still rock! 😂 (We totally forget a significant part of God’s personality is woman. I probably said that ugly, but it’s directionally correct.) God created mankind in his own image…male and female he created them” Genesis 1.27 Image: Isaiah 32

Hey fellas. I began praying this over our Roll call group after our last meeting. As the Lord works, I met Micah in person by divine appointment today @ Starbucks. There is power here that all of us have access to. 🙌🏼https://www.audible.com/pd/B00DVQDBWY?source_code=ASSORAP0511160006&share_location=library_overflow Also, I’m riding 67 miles tomorrow for Bike MS - if anyone feels led or has family with MS I’d appreciate your support. 🙏🏼 https://events.nationalmssociety.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=donorDrive.participant&participantID=572659

Immediately my home came to mind. Am I vigilant in protecting the freedom of my wife and four kids? Do I continually serve fruits of the Spirit so they can have the freedom, and freedom more abundantly, that Jesus has promised them in my care? Do they feel as free with me as I do with the LORD? Love. Joy. Peace. Patience. Kindness. Goodness. Faithfulness. Self-control.

A couple of weeks ago, I had one of the most meaningful conversations yet with a man I consider a combat brother, John. We talk often, but this time, something he said hit me differently. John and I have walked very different paths, but our bond has always been deep. He knows my story—losing everything, rebuilding, rediscovering who I was meant to be. And he’s lived through his own battles, including his truck getting blown up in Afghanistan. At one point, he looked at me and said: "Most men think they have to wait for some big moment before they change. But the real ones? They just start walking." That landed. Because if I had waited for the perfect moment, I wouldn’t have taken the step. I wouldn’t have fought to get my family back. I wouldn’t have rebuilt my life. And I sure as hell wouldn’t be here today, helping other men break free. It’s easy to believe the lie that it’s too late. Too late to change, too late to heal, too late to build something new. "TOO ME TO CHANGE." #bullshit! The TRUTH is... 🔥 Your past isn’t a prison; it’s preparation. Every failure, every regret, every lesson—it’s all fuel for what’s next. 🔥 Reinvention isn’t betrayal; it’s obedience. The version of you that got here isn’t the version that will take you where you’re meant to go. 🔥 The window of opportunity doesn’t close—YOU just stop looking through it. If I had told myself, "It’s too late to rebuild my marriage," I wouldn’t be celebrating 23 years with Nikki. If I had thought, "My past disqualifies me from helping men," I wouldn’t be leading a brotherhood of men stepping into their God-given identity. If I had believed, "I should just stick to what I know," I wouldn’t be part of building something bigger than myself. So let me ask you— What would you pursue if you stopped telling yourself, “It’s too late”? Because the truth is, it’s not. The only question is: Will you take your step? Adam
