Life is full, guys. I think we can all agree, as most of us have young kids, that every minute of the day is filled with something. I pray that it is good work, joy, and peace that it's filled with, but there are likely some frustrating situations going on, or trials you may be going through. I just wanted to let this be a space for you to comment the tough situations, share the joys and wins you've had, and find encouragement where you need it. How is everyone, doing?!

Let's see them, fellas! We need to come together and pray for each other. No man is an island, and we are here to support each other in life's struggles, triumphs, challenges, etc. This community has been quiet, and that it on me by not pushing to get our guys back in here. I challenge you to step in and help me grow this space as a refuge and support for guys looking to become better in all aspects of life. My prayer request: I have an opportunity to lead a small home church. That would require stepping away from our large church in town and following the template that Jesus set in the Gospels: start with a small group, raise up leaders, and multiply. There would be no income from this, so it's a tough decision. I would have to really ramp up coaching and drop the notion of seeking a paid opportunity within the church that I have applied for. My family is blessed with finances that, if we stewarded well, we could live off of, but it would be a heavy adjustment. Your prayers would be greatly appreciated. Now comment your requests below and let's get after it!

I have been off Facebook but still addicted to my phone. I just need to put it down but I think the pull is still very strong. It’s been a tougher month. Very busy and feeling disconnected from my wife. Could use prayers in moving forward with the second half of the month!

I have some big prayer requests: Mom’s salvation Daughter to truly love Jesus and follow Him I would like to take a picture of my daily pickups with the goal of replacing pickups with prayer. I would love to pickup my phone less than 50 times/day but 75 is probably a more attainable goal. Here’s 12/6

What have you noticed about yourself lately? What are you doing with all of that displaced dopamine seeking? Have you been more frustrated this past week, or more calm? What do you want to be different about 2025 than this past year? What do you want to be different about yourself? What are you getting tired of that you do, think, feel, etc.? Anwer all, answer some, but at least reflect some this morning. What about working out, where are we with that? Not the most important thing in the world, but keeping up with workouts and overall movement will help out other aspects of your life and mentality. How can I pray for you?
