letter from the EDITOR

Hello Beautiful ,

Last month we spent a lot of time on the topic of growth in our magazine and in our blog posts. This month we are covering the topic of CARING. When people experience seasons of growth, they need to know that there are people out there that care for them. It seems like the act of caring is going out of style. Everyone is in the game for themselves. They step on who they want, when they want, to get what they want. Has the world always been so careless of others? Or is this a new trend as we have become more greedy, more self-obsessed and more blind to the hurt around us? I admit that I am guilty of getting wrapped up in my own problems and my own tasks. I have always been the type of person that sets her mind on something and forgets about everything around her. As I have gotten older, and have grown through things, I understand the pain that human hearts experience. I understand losing loved ones, and going through very difficult times. That has only softened my heart to those around me and opened my eyes to see those that need a little TLC (tender loving care). Most of the time I do not have a lot I can give, other than some words of hope and encouragement but many times all they need is to know that someone cares. I challenge you this month to find one or five people and let them know that you care in some way or another.

XOXO,

If you didn’t have a care in the world, what would you do with your time? My time would be spent getting to enjoy the many things about living: traveling, spending more time with friends and family, and creating things. What is the most caring thing you have done for a stranger? I helped an elderly lady clean up a home that she had been renting out and was all trashed up, so she could sell the house. What does it mean to care? In my definition, caring is putting the needs of another before your own and doing what you can to meet those needs.

Are you the Tin Man or Scarecrow? By: Arnette German

“How often do you think with your heart in lieu of your mind?” is the question I kept hearing in preparation of composing my article. Taken aback by this deep question, a long period of reflecting occurred. Surprised with my truth, because transparency, vulnerability and honesty had to be tapped into in order to even embrace the query to genuinely answer-I felt it was a good icebreaker to present to you all. I know. I know. It’s an off the wall question. Actually, it’s an intrusive query that easily becomes highly uncomfortable to embrace contingent upon whose moral compass you’re measuring yourself against. Then again, for the sake of humor, it’s a silly one since the heart doesn’t “think” right? However, either being classified as an audacious question or “forgetfulness” by not committing to memory my high school Anatomy notes...all in all...it is an inquiry that needs to be investigated. Sadly, in this day and time where the “every man for himself” theme is being showcased regularly front and center in society, Empathy and Compassion are two traits that no longer needs to be redshirted or the starters in one’s moral game. My loves, close your eyes and reflect on today. What decisions were made that involved utilizing your heart for the betterment for someone else where the only payout for you is simply feeling good that your moral compass gave a standing ovation to your character, integrity and ethics? As my grandmother often told me throughout my childhood and adulthood, “it never hurts to be nice.” There are times where caring is the only and right

14


15


answer. And, there will definitely be times when doing the right thing may not give the expected response either. Recently, I learned that compassion is more for the giver of it than the recipient. Why? Because it makes life... your life easier. Just like forgiveness frees up the sower so does Empathy and Compassion. Hand in hand, both go a long way and both will carry you a long way in life too. Think on it. Think of how much thought and energy goes into not smiling or not allowing yourself to “feel” as one speaks of what they’re presently experiencing. Granted, times will come where you may not have experienced what he or she is going through but the offering of your shoulder, ear and/or time doesn’t hurt and it shows that you’re thinking with your heart and not your mind. At the end of the day, it boils down to how do you want others to treat you...be there for you? Remember, what you give is what you get back. We’re in an era where matters of the heart have to...well...matter. We’re in a time where being selfless, thinking and caring for others matter...where having a heart matters. So, are you the Tin Man desiring to have a heart...to love, care and feel in order to live a productive and fulfilling life by giving life through Empathy, Compassion, Integrity and Ethics or are you the Scarecrow where your desire is for a mind...removing yourself from “feeling” when making decisions and rendering final judgements and outcomes? Only you, your heart, your mind and decisions know the truth.

Without

Caring

By: Xiomara Eve Montalvo

I remember, once upon a time, where models were angels trapped within the confines of paper found in magazines. Everyone envied them, aspired to be like them, and believed that they were the epitome of beauty. Later on, we realized that the model lifestyle wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows. Nowadays, we look up to celebrities, actresses, musicians, and stars of all kind. The models from the pages have become real through motion pictures and tangible in concerts. We can scroll through Instagram, watch Youtube videos, and Facebook stalk even more models than ever contained in magazines. But have you ever asked why? Why do we do it? Why do we care so much about the idealism found in these people who, at times, depend on photoshop and autotune to maintain the facade of stardom? Why do we copy and paste who they portray themselves to be onto our own lives? Why do we care? Is it the belief that since these people are admired by the masses, that in some way, if we become more like them then maybe, just maybe, we too can be admired by just as many people? The truth is we cannot stand being rejected. Rejection can lead us to do some crazy things. Why be someone else when God created a beautiful work of art when He made YOU! Why compare yourself to others when there is only one of you. You are unique, one of a kind, and above all beautifully YOU! So go out there and be yourself without caring what society says is the current trend. Trends come and go but YOU are here to stay!

I CARE By Karissa Hagemeister

T

he modern day Proverbs 31 woman is a woman that cares for herself, her family and for others. The two verses that we are focusing on this month are verses 27 and 28: Proverbs 31:27-28 NIV “She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her.” This first verse (verse 27) has a dual meaning in both sections of it. The first section, “She watches over the affairs of her household,” has the literal meaning of the Proverbs 31 woman paying attention to all of the goings on in her own home. She is aware of how everyone is behaving in school, she knows how well her family is doing financially, she knows the names of her workers and knows what they are dealing with. From the next section of this verse and the ones to follow, we can imply that not only

28

does she know, she is aware, but she also cares for the needs of the household. “Her children arise and call her blessed,” this shows us that she is caring for the needs of her children. She takes care of them, their well-being, and she raises them to be respectful of her as their mother. They are thankful and bless her in return. She teaches her children and trains them up in the way that they are to live as respectable adults: able to communicate, work hard and make a living with their own hands, and to care for others. Part of caring for your kids is training them right from wrong and teaching them in life. The Bible says, “Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” I do not see a lot of training going on anymore. I see parents handing their babies iPads and iPhones and letting their brains become mush before they have even fully developed. The two youngest generations on this earth right now are running like a chicken with their heads cut off, following what celebrities do and what YouTube stars do. Why? Because their parents are not taking the time to care for them and train them in the way to go.


“Her husband also, and he praises her,” HE PRAISES HER!! Ladies! How many of you are tired of your husband not doing what he is asked or not helping you out? Does he even praise you?? Maybe, just maybe, you are not caring for him. As a wife, it is our duty to care for our husbands in all the ways that they need it. We are not to stop this once we have children. We are not to care for them until we marry them and then stop. Man and wife are to be a team. That is the way that God designed it. Each family unit is going to operate differently. As a team, you and your husband should work together to find out how best to work together to meet each others needs. I can guarantee you that if you are not meeting his needs, caring for him, he is going to go somewhere else to get his needs cared for. Play your role in the team and care for each other, and you will get that lovely, oh so sweet praise from your man (instead of him giving it to some homewrecker). The second part of that first verse says, she “does not eat the bread of idleness.” Once again there are two meanings to this verse: The first is, the modern day Proverbs 31 woman is not lazy. We have discussed this

in almost every part of our Proverbs 31 study. She does not sit idly by wasting her time, or her life. As I have mentioned in previous stories, each person on this earth was given a purpose. We are not doing ourselves or others any good by sitting around, watching TV, or gossiping with other ladies. Gossiping brings me to my next point. Idle chatter, or spreading gossip is not an act of a Proverbs 31 woman or a caring woman for that matter. Gossiping or listening to gossipers only leads to destruction for yourself and all the other parties involved. Protect your own reputation and that of others be refraining from and disassociating with those given to idleness and gossiping. We have made t-shirts that say “I CARE” loud, bold and proud for you this month. Wear them as a reminder to care for others, spread the message of caring, and to let others know that you do care. There is not enough caring people anymore. I even find myself saying often, “I don’t care.” Well, even I need to care a little more. Take the initiative to start the change reaction of caring for others. Watch how you caring for someone will inspire them to care for someone else. It is a beautiful thing to see caring hearts spread throughout your community.

Where can peeps find you on social media?

A year and a half ago I volunteered at my local nursing home for a few weeks. I helped get some of the residents ready for a Thanksgiving dinner. I styled their hair, did the ladies makeup, and sat with those who did not have family coming to visit them.

Heartstrings by Sara Robillard

38


the body of Christ is a beautiful and mysterious thing It’s His bride-to-be, His “hands and feet” here on earth. What has amazed me most is the spiritual connection we all have as his members of His body; it’s something I really haven’t been able to comprehend. There are times when I can’t explain the heaviness on my heart for another, especially when it’s someone I can’t even claim to know personally…and yet the call to intercede is so powerful. In the past, I’ve tried to over-analyze it and drew many wrong conclusions as a result; but in the end, I quit trying to understand and just submitted to the spirit’s movement in my heart. We are all tied by unseen strings, a network of hearts tied to One… linked together by His love (1 john 4:11-12). We represent Him on earth as His children, as a family. We encourage, we discipline, we restore, we provide…we love. We love our brothers and sisters in Christ. Our lives are all connected, united. We function together no matter where we are on this earth. It wounds me when others try and divide with denominations and ethnicity and social status and personal struggles. Humans are so

ridiculous. With God, there is no partiality (Romans 2:11), and His word is clear and convicting, “If someone says, ‘I love God,’ and hates his brother, he is a liar; for the one who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love god whom he has not seen.” (1 John 4:20, NASB) If we do not love our brothers and sisters in Christ, we don’t love God. I have known and seen the love of God through His people, and am thankful for those who are members His body. In other cases, I have to remember that God is the judge of the heart, and my task is to obey Him. There have been times when all I can say is the name of the one I’m praying for over and over again. I’ve had to let go of that desire to know. I can’t know, but God knows. I trust.

i value this relationship. i treasure my connection with Him. with my family, seen and unseen.

hen you picture a Dauntless man, maybe you picture a man that is strong and has big gains from the gym. Maybe you picture a biker dude with a long beard and tats all over his body. How often would you picture Jesus Christ, the Son of God? He is our perfect example of how we are to live out our lives. When he walked this earth, he instructed those that were to become his disciples to “Follow Me.” (As seen in Matthew 4:19). That was not so that he could look cool with a posse of people following him around. He was showing them how they were to live dauntless lives here on earth.

Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.” (John

14:12-14). That is a cool way to go out if you ask me and what a caring friend/father “you may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it”. I know sometimes when I am just asking friends for help with things and I get 101 excuses back as why they can’t, but believing in Jesus Christ, the Son of God, following his laws, and loving others allows him to work great things for us… how awesome!

J

esus shared this with his twelve disciples as he was preparing them for his death and resurrection. He directed them and directs us still today that we are to do the works he did and even greater than he did. Jesus was the most Dauntless man to ever walk this planet (and most Dauntless in Heaven too). This is why he is to be our example. Jesus knew that he was being sent to earth to take on the sins of man. He did not try to run or hide from this purpose. He did not use his godly powers to destroy all those that were offering him up to be crucified, although he easily could have. He endured beatings to almost the point of death. He allowed them to shove thorns around his head, while they mocked him. He dies on the cross, having never sinned but bearing the weight of all my sins, your sins and the sins of the world. 49


Photo Credit Lukas B.

He endured the excruciating pain, torture and embarrassment because he loves us. Because he cares for us. That was the main point of his whole life, his whole message while he was on this earth. Love. He cares for us all. 50

In return, as followers of

Christ, we are called to care for all others too. That means Christians, nonChristians, homeless, hurting, sick, dieing ‌ everyone. Dauntless is not just about being a tough guy, it is not about looking down on others. It is about caring for all others and loving as Jesus did. That statement, “What


Would Jesus Do?” should be our life motto, always looking to our Dauntless leader for direction. You may have considered “caring” to be soft or weak, according to worldly standards of what it is to be a man… but remember “the meek will inherit the earth” your life should be lived to please our Abba (Father), to love one another, and share the good news of the gospel with others. Jesus has given us many gifts to care for the hurting people of this world, use them. Use your talents for good & remember caring for another person doesn’t make you weak it makes you strong and shows a true quality of being a man which is a kind heart. By Arman Irani

letter from the EDITOR

Hello Dauntless, For the month of May, we are covering the topic of CARING. This quality may not seem like a very Dauntless topic at first glance but to be a caring man does not make one weak. Caring for others shows that you are strong enough to put your ego and your pride aside to help out your fellow man. Caring does not have to be a feminine thing either. You do not have to give flowers to someone who is sick in the hospital, you can let your wife do that. But if you see someone who needs help with their car on the side of the road, be a man and help them out. This is just a reminder that Dauntless does not mean self-absorbed. It means to be strong and courageous but also to love and care for others as well. Do to others as you want done unto you. Stay Dauntless Strong!

Peace out,

If you didn’t have a care in the world, what would you do with your time? Travel meet others and experience all the things God has created for us to enjoy. What is the most caring thing you have done for a stranger? Paid for someone’s grocery at the store. What does it mean to care? To show you have a heart, to do more than needed in a situation.. Intuitively, I believe we all know what is right vs wrong & what constitutes a caring gesture vs a non caring one. 65

ABOUT DAUNTLESS BE A TRUTH SEEKER IN THESE TIMES OF DARKNESS. BE WHO YOU WERE CREATED TO BE. LIVE IN FAITH. BE BLESSED IN LOVE. FOLLOW THE PATH OF PEACE. BE DAUNTLESS. - ARMAN IRANI -

The second half of this magazine is now being taken over by guys, for guys. In May 2017, after receiving much feedback from males asking for more content geared towards them, our wheels started turning. We came up with the idea of having the dual magazine. Below are a few of the reasons as to why Dauntless is now the name of the second half of our e-mag. So, gentlemen, as you are reading, think of yourself in these terms: “Dauntless means, ‘I am BOLD, COURAGEOUS, and GALLANT. Which trumps all other choices. IMHO.” Larry “Dauntless for sure. Dauntless means, ‘Showing FEARLESSNESS and DETERMINATION.’ That is how I would like to be defined.” Arman PODCASTS: If you love to listen to podcasts, you have to check out our new podcast station.
