I think this would be best started off by stating who I am.
I'm 26 almost 27.
I want to public school in middle Georgia.
I joined the US Navy directly after highschool.
I deployed to Afghanistan.
I got saved at 21
I just (last week) graduated Bible college.
I am moving to the middle Ga area and helping at a church.
I have never lived by my self or had property.
I think that millennials in the hole are unprepared more so than any other generation for catastrophic events. And here's why I say that I was a dorm room supervisor for 4 years Bible college in those four years I noticed a few things at least about the mail Bible college students 1 most of them don't even know how to cook like I've seen people struggle with cooking macaroni and cheese I've seen somebody literally make a grilled cheese using an iron and ironing board they don't understand weather patterns they don't understand how they keep themselves warm and cool when necessary and it's just hard for them to function without a device in their hands. And they don't understand the importance of physical readiness I mean we were in the northern Atlanta area and aside from being able to read body language aside from being able to have awareness of your environment most people sub 30 do not understand how to basically fight. And since my time of getting out of the military I have noticed some things about myself especially the last two years I eat more out of the house not to do in the house. So I have developed some goals for myself for the 2020 New year that I think that anybody needs to think about adopting I will cook breakfast 7 days a week I will prep all of my lunch meals before work to take to work 5 days a week and dinner 5 times a week I will allow myself to eat out once a week to twice a week I will begin physical conditioning again with the goal of being where I was 30 days before leaving the Navy which was I was qualified to be in special operations I was able to do 100 pushups in under 2 minutes as ever do a hundred sit-ups technically under 2 minutes more like under 80 seconds and I was able to run 3 miles at about 18 minutes all of this is one require discipline and coming out of my comfort zone I'm not a particularly good cook so that will require me to do something I don't like doing however how can millennials survive some catastrophic event if we don't even know how to basically cook any Cummins questions ideas or welcome thank you
Not a bad plan, it will save you money and get you back in shape. I would try and start a movement in your church doing the same thing and getting fit. Not scarring them prepping just gathering and doing things that will help them in the long run while building bonds.
There are programs on the internet to learn to cook, I had to learn to cook, as i lived off post in the army. No one to do it for me. LOL.
Cooking is easy. First figure out what you like and what tastes good, the rest will come. Oh there will be mistakes on the way, but for the most part you'll amaze yourself.
To me, the biggest problem young people face is the "I" problem and the hand wart or cell phone. If they can get over themselves and realize that they really aren't that mucking fuch, maybe they can start listening. If they listen, they will see that there are some issues they need to face or perish. Physically and spiritually. They need to hear that morals are important. Without them they have nothing to steer their life with. They will not develop a work ethic or an understanding of why they need one. Stop and think what you learned in the service...wasn't it that you were no one, until you could prove you were? I applaud your decision to 'get on with it' and will pray that the Father will give you the strength and wisdom to not only accomplish all of your goals, but to be a beacon to other young people.
Haunted55 Ya know! you are right more than you are wrong. HAAA I like it.. Blessing
Wirh the money you are saving by not eating out, save it in "an account" for a "rainy day". It will be amazing how fast it adds up.
I know that our church does a Run for God program (look it up many churches do it) it’s a way to get members involved in being healthy and spending time together with each other in Christ outside of church. You can also ask some of the ladies at church if they would teach you how to cook. Trust me they would love to. I’m on the south side of Atlanta I’m looking for a mag, team and tribe. If you would like to talk more here is my email

Volunteering at a "soup kitchen" will a) teach you to cook b) give opportunity to testify c) give opportunity to meet like minded
