Episode 6 Details

📖     DEVO:  Psalm 84

🧠    MIND CHALLENGE: Read a Psalm every day.

  • Find 1 Psalm to Read and meditate on.
  • Reflect back on it throughout that day.
  • Find 1 thing that stands out and share it with someone.

❤️    HEART CHALLENGE: Plan to spontaneously serve or meet someone else’s need this week.

Early in your day, pray and have on your “mental radar” the thought: “I will be looking for someone who needs help this week and I will be the one to give it to them.”

  • Plan ahead by baking extra time into your schedule so that you have margin for the spontaneous moments.
  • Have a little extra money set aside to bless someone else randomly.

 

💪🏻    STRENGTH CHALLENGE: Perform 1,000 ( or whatever a difficult but doable number would be for you)  push ups this week.

Challenge yourself to do lots of push-ups. Consider…

  • If you are currently doing 0 push-ups in a workout, do 10-15 per day (commit to 70-100 this week).
  • If you are looking for modifications for push-ups, check THIS VIDEO out for some ideas.
  • Pick a number for the week total that will be difficult, but doable.
    • If you can do 50-100 push-ups in a given workout session, choose a number on the lower end of that
    • Plan to do it every single day of the week.
  • The goal: all guys challenged to do the same movement through the week that is difficult but doable for all.a
