Announcements: Our second Adopt-a-Road Clean-up is coming! We’re looking at potential dates to hold it, notionally planning on Saturday, September 25th, at 7:30am. LMK if you will be out of town that day or unable to support.

CoT: YHC shared some thoughts and experiences with leveraging the power of role models in confronting life’s choices and challenges. It is difficult to consistently stay on the harder path of meaning rather than the cheap and easy way. Asking ourselves what our role model would do when we are confronted with such choices brings power. Establish your own role model. Live your life as if your role model were watching you always.
Be a role model. Your children will learn more from who you are than from what you say. Try to demonstrate proper behavior more consistently to those in our stewardship. Strive to be worthy of emulation.
We all have an ultimate role model in the form of Jesus Christ, whom we can use at any time and in most situations. “What would Jesus do?” Brings power. Leverage Him if all else fails.

COT: Parasitic Drag – a aeronautical term that is defined as any drag that isn’t connected to the production of lift. We has men have parasitic drag and it comes in different forms. It is anything that holds us bad from accomplishing the things we want to do in life. To be true HIM’s we need to get rid of the stuff that prevent us from breaking through barriers to get to where we want to be. First step is to identify the parasitic drag in our lives and the second step is to replace it with the right stuff. One of the biggest Parasitic drag’s we all have experienced is our own poisonous mindsets! Anger, Resentment, Bitterness, Guilt and Shame. Allowing these emotions to fester, you run the risk of marking your life with darkness. The antidote if forgiveness. Forgiveness requires being willing to release those emotions. Its an honest and forthcoming declaration to let them go. Forgiveness isn’t necessarily about the physical act of apology: it’s about going deeper to create an intentional commitment with yourself and GOD by letting go of what’s holding you back. Forgive other and forgive yourself.
