13 Pax showed up in the downpour for QIC’s Maiden post. Remembered to give disclaimer, no FNGs, off we went.

Mosey to the field beside the shelter. Rumblings about wet grass, like we weren’t going to be soaked in a matter of minutes anyway.

The 27/17 count was based on Proverbs 27:17 verse that you see on F3 shirts: “As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.” Seven months ago at my first post to Crucible (and 2nd F3 post), I could barely make it around the path once. Thanks to my F3 brothers, I’m now able to lead these PAX around 8 times. So, what does “iron sharpen iron” mean? it means the encouragement I got at my first post that kept me coming back. It’s the example the PAX set every day in how they live that helps make me a more faithful dad, husband and friend. I’m beyond grateful to continue to be sharpened, and it was an honor to lead these men.
