🚀 Welcome to Mission Ready: Faith, Fitness & Leadership
Brothers and sisters — welcome! This community was built for those who know that the mission never ends. Whether you wore a uniform, lead in the corporate arena, or are simply striving to live a disciplined life of purpose, you belong here. At Mission Ready, we believe three things: 1️⃣ Faith First: Jesus Christ is our foundation. We draw strength from Him, not from ourselves. (Philippians 4:13) 2️⃣ Fitness as Stewardship: Our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). Training them is not vanity; it’s preparation to serve God, family, and community with endurance. 3️⃣ Leadership with Integrity: True leadership flows from servant-hearted resilience. In the military, on the street, or in the boardroom, we’re called to lead with courage and faithfulness. Here’s what you can expect: - Weekly devotionals tying Scripture to resilience, discipline, and health. - Fitness & rucking challenges that sharpen both body and spirit. - Leadership discussions where Veterans, LEOs, and professionals share lessons learned. - A supportive community where prayer, accountability, and encouragement are always available. This isn’t just a fitness group. It’s a place where discipline meets discipleship, where we carry the weight of the ruck and the cross, and where we grow stronger together. 📖 “Let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith.” (Hebrews 12:1–2) Welcome to the team. Lace up your boots, grab your ruck, and let’s walk this mission out — in faith, in strength, and in leadership. 👉 Drop a quick intro below: - Who you are - Your background (Veteran, LEO, professional, or other) - One health or faith goal you’re working on this year We’re glad you’re here. Let’s get mission-ready.
Thanksgiving
Are any of you travelling for Thanksgiving? Even though I live in Canada these days, I still enjoy taking a few days off to enjoy Thanksgiving and watch some Football. I am not a huge fan, but it is a bit of a Tradition. I cook a Thanksgiving meal and enjoy a few days of rest.

Muscle Confusion
Good morning, Team! I’m just over a week into using my rowing machine, yes, the one that makes me feel like I’m training for the Olympics while actually going nowhere, and it got me thinking: sometimes you’ve got to mix things up. Schedules and routines are fantastic… until they start feeling like that old GPS that keeps saying “recalculating” because it refuses to believe you took a different route. Life doesn’t always respect our plans, our expectations, or our color-coded calendars. That’s why cross-training matters, both as athletes and as professionals. It strengthens the weak spots, reduces the risk of burnout or injury, and keeps us adaptable when the unexpected hits (which it will… usually before coffee). Closing thought: If you want to grow, don’t just work harder, work differently. The muscles you train today might be the very ones that carry you through tomorrow’s surprises. Let’s stay sharp, stay flexible, and keep rowing, even if the scenery never changes. 🚣‍♂️

Fitness is Stewardship
“Honour God with your body.” — 1 Cor. 6:20 You're not training to impress. You're training to endure. Just like the Knights of old, we train to survive and to be there to protect those whom we guard.

Sundays Message
Here is a Summary of the message I preached this Morning. Let me know what you think. Christ Is King - Not a Rebel Authority vs. Rebellion (John 1:1–14) In every generation, people wrestle with authority. But Scripture draws a clear line between the Rebel and the Commander. Lucifer is the prototype of rebellion: grasping for power that was never his, recruiting through pride, pushing upward to take authority without obedience. Christ is the perfect picture of true authority: eternal, divine, uncreated. He doesn’t seize authority; He embodies it. He doesn’t manipulate followers; He leads by truth, sacrifice, and integrity. He is the Word made flesh, the Light of the world, the Way to the Father. Jesus didn’t posture like a rebel. He submitted, obeyed, descended… and was exalted above every name. So the real question isn’t whether Jesus was a rebel (He wasn’t). The question is which posture we choose: - Rebellion, like Lucifer: self-will, defiance, chaos. - Submission, like Christ: humility, obedience, eternal life. Freedom isn’t found in resisting God’s authority, but in kneeling beneath it. Choose the path of the King who stepped down to lift us up. Choose Christ.
