BOM:

“Shared Weight, Strengthened Brotherhood” – Schnitzel

“Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.”

— Galatians 6:2

Brothers — look at that cinder block you just spent the last 45 minutes grinding with.

Heavy, right? But it was manageable — because we did it together. You weren’t out here alone.

Just like that block, life hands each of us weights to carry: stress, fear, addiction, pride, temptation, shame, or just the quiet pressure of trying to hold it all together. And too many men — especially in this world — think they have to carry it alone.

But that’s not strength — that’s isolation.

Scripture tells us the opposite. God’s design is not solo survival; it’s community. Brotherhood. Shared burdens.

When you show up for a guy beside you, or when you have the courage to admit, “I need help,” you fulfill something greater than just accountability. You model the love and humility of Jesus Himself — who not only carried our sin but invites us to cast our cares on Him.

So, let’s not just sweat together. Let’s lean into the hard stuff together.

No man walks alone. No man carries his block alone.

MOLESKIN:

Prayer associated with BOM:

“Father, thank You for this circle of men. Thank You for the strength that comes not from pride, but from vulnerability, community, and love. Help us to be the kind of brothers who carry each other’s burdens — who don’t walk past someone struggling. And help us be humble enough to admit when we need help ourselves. Make us more like Jesus — strong, gentle, and present. Amen.”
