12 pax defeated the #fartsack this AM and posted Turning Point for what YHC promised to be a little MudRun prep for next weekend. For those not partaking in the MudRun, it was just a good ole fashion beat down. The men of Turning Point continue to amaze me with their will to push themselves to their limits. The encouragement through voice and by example from everyone is an amazing thing to experience. I am humbled to consider myself a brother to these great men.

DEVO: YOUR MESS
But joyful are those who have the God of Israel as their helper, whose hope is in the Lord their God. -Psalm 146:5
- Where do you turn when your life turns into a mess? How do you pick up the pieces? A mess is always easier to clean when you have someone helping you. God is just waiting for you to invite Him into your mess.
