Brotherhood Builder — Reflection Guide

Companion freebie for RRWS Episode 6: “Brotherhood, Loyalty & Legacy” (Friends After Forty Series)

A simple, powerful one-pager to help you **build—not break—**brotherhood. Pray first, then use the guided prompts and ready-to-send texts to strengthen unity, sharpen one another, and put faith into action this week.

What’s inside

• Anchor Scriptures: Amos 3:3, Matthew 18:15, Proverbs 27:17, Nehemiah 2:18, John 8:36
• 2 Mini Prompts (journal first):

1. Agreement Check (Amos 3:3): Where are we aligned—and where am I out of step? What humble step will I take toward unity?
2. Rise Up & Build (Neh. 2:18): What one specific act will I do to build my brother—cover a task, mentor a younger brother, or call/pray/serve so our ‘good work’ keeps growing?

• 7-Day Check-In Texts: Copy-and-paste messages for:
• Family, Brother/Friend (40+), Coworker, Childhood Friend, Father/Father-Figure, Mentor, College Brother
• Daily Anchors (use every day): one honesty check + a short prayer to stay aligned, humble, and consistent

Perfect for

• Men’s groups, barbershop/locker-room ministries, fraternities, and Bible studies
• Friends rebuilding trust after 40
• Any brotherhood ready to name the weeds, move the rocks, and grow good soil

How to use it

1. Read the anchor scriptures.
2. Journal the two mini prompts.
3. Send one check-in text per day for seven days. Keep it short, honest, and consistent.
4. Use the Daily Anchors to stay humble (Eph. 4:2–3) and handle correction privately (Matt. 18:15).
