Work. Sometimes it means dirty jobs. The Worst Jobs. While in plank position for :60 YHC instigated #mumblechatter to determine the worst jobs held among the PAX. Our man Buy Low spieled about serving as a dishwasher at a Chinese restaurant for a grand total of two days. Says he still won’t eat Chinese to this day. In honor of his dirty job, we moved immediately to the Dying Cockroach.

Labor Day is the day to recognize work. So we worked. #meanmeanstride

Prayers – Eisenhower family in WF / ministry in WF at N Wake Church

Concluded with thoughts on Labor. We’re created to work. Work was part of the deal, what we were created for by God before things went sour in the world. “The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it.” (Gen 2:15) So, when we work and how we work can reflect God’s character. We’re called to work as he does, creating, tending, caring for the people and projects we put our hands to. Let’s work as He works, men.

Sir Fazio prayed us out.
