No reserves, no retreats, no regrets...!
Last summer, I felt impressed to take this motto for this school year as a Christian and as the Senior Pastor of our church, "No reserves, no retreats, no regrets!" Those phrases were made famous by one of the 20th century's Christian heros, William Whiting Borden. While I was preparing for my sermon this morning, I came across the following links that tell more about this amazing man:

Great links! What an example to all of us regarding those things in our lives that are truly important.
I applaud your desire, Pastor, to embrace this motto. And I want to do the same for the men of Hillcrest - that we would lean in and live our lives as Christians, Husbands, Fathers, with no reserves, no retreats, no regrets!
Thanks Pastor Mark!
