Circle 1 – God’s Game Plan

  • Today we worked out at 3 different stations. The first station was
    the circle in Coolidge Park.
  • Obviously, there was a designer who designed the field, lights
    around the field, the sidewalk, the stage, etc… A designer designed
    that first circle.
  • God the Creator has a perfect designed game plan for you, your
    marriage, your career, & your future.

Circle 2 – Brokenness

  • From the park area, we ran over to the river, paired up, picked out
    a coupon and circled up.
  • After pairing up, half of us stayed in the circle and did curls,
    squats, shoulder presses, and bent over rows. The other half of us
    ran 10 light poles and did merkins.
  • Half of us broke off from the circle and went to run the light poles.
    That leads us to the second circle. God has a game plan, but ALL of
    us think we know what’s best for us so we break off from the
    circle and go “run the light poles.”
  • The bad news is that when we walk away from God’s design for
    our own, that only leads to a state of brokenness. Brokenness
    leads to more and more brokenness such as: broken families,
    hearts, relationships, careers, situations, etc…
  • The good news is that God never wants to leave us in our
    brokenness. When something is broken, we will either fix it or
    throw it away! Though we are broken, God decides NOT to throw
    us away NOR patch us back together with guerrilla glue or duct
    tape. Rather, God makes us new in Jesus Christ!

Circle 3 – The Gospel

  • The third circle we moseyed to was the concrete circle in the
    woods with a cut out entrance. This circle represents the fact
    that God decided to join us in our brokenness.
  • God sent His Son Jesus right down into the middle of our
    brokenness to be broken for us. Jesus never departed from
    God’s perfect design. Jesus, having never sinned, decided to die
    in our place on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins.
  • The broken people Jesus came to love dragged Him out of the
    city and nailed Him to the cross. He breathed His last on the
    cross and died. They buried Him. On the 3 rd day, Jesus rose from
    the dead. He is alive! He is alive right now!
  • Jesus is to help you RECOVER from your state of brokenness.
    We are all sinners and always will be, but the penalty of that sin
    is forgiven in Christ.
