The next Para Bellum Series date will be posted tomorrow. This one is in Louisville Kentucky, at CrossFit Bluegrass (aka Outlaw 1F), from February 28th to March 2nd. The registration link will be live with tomorrow’s post. This one may go quick because the date is a little closer, and because Jesus loves Kentucky (is that good theology, Spencer?).

Pretty good seminary there so maybe Jesus does love Louisville more… Nope changed my mind. Too close to Arkansas…
As a seminary grad who was born and raised in Arkansas, I’m horribly offended by your comment about Arkansas. We all know Missouri is the real armpit of America.
Whoa whoa there, as we saw from last weekends SEC games is at least goes Missouri > Georgia > Arkansas
