"Difference Makers and Culture Shapers"

1
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,900
If you have joined us today, we are living up in a down world.

2
00:00:33,900 --> 00:00:36,540
And this is episode number 67.

3
00:00:36,540 --> 00:00:37,440
How are you doing, beautiful?

4
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:38,440
Oh my gosh.

5
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:40,540
I've been crying almost all day.

6
00:00:40,540 --> 00:00:41,380
I know.

7
00:00:41,380 --> 00:00:42,380
I'm very emotional.

8
00:00:42,380 --> 00:00:43,680
I'm a little, I'm a little, but clenched myself.

9
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:45,380
We have had...

10
00:00:45,380 --> 00:00:46,220
Wow.

11
00:00:46,220 --> 00:00:47,860
I don't even know.

12
00:00:47,860 --> 00:00:50,220
I'm gonna start crying just talking about it.

13
00:00:50,220 --> 00:00:51,860
We've had an amazing day,

14
00:00:51,860 --> 00:00:55,100
and then we just got an amazing email

15
00:00:55,100 --> 00:00:57,960
from some people who watched you on Sunday

16
00:00:57,960 --> 00:00:59,400
and wanna get together.

17
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:01,540
They live in Dripping Springs, wanna get together.

18
00:01:01,540 --> 00:01:04,140
They have a ministry in Uganda.

19
00:01:04,140 --> 00:01:07,040
We watched CBS Austin.

20
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:07,880
We're bawling.

21
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:09,340
Both of us are just crying,

22
00:01:09,340 --> 00:01:14,340
watching this ministry that got aired on CBS.

23
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:18,480
And they wanna talk to us, and we're just the clamped.

24
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:19,680
Aren't we?

25
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:20,820
We're a little messed up.

26
00:01:20,820 --> 00:01:22,060
I mean, in a good way.

27
00:01:22,060 --> 00:01:24,660
We're just emotional because we're so grateful.

28
00:01:24,660 --> 00:01:27,760
And God keeps bringing people into our lives

29
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,800
that are inspirational.

30
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:31,960
Blowing our mind.

31
00:01:31,960 --> 00:01:33,040
Mind blowing.

32
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:33,860
Everything.

33
00:01:33,860 --> 00:01:35,740
I feel like, you know,

34
00:01:35,740 --> 00:01:37,200
I know this is gonna sound crazy.

35
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:39,680
It started with, and I'm gonna give them credit

36
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,600
because it really started with Adam and Tina.

37
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:46,120
Adam and Tina, I'm gonna cry about them too.

38
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,020
Them coming to our life has opened up

39
00:01:48,020 --> 00:01:50,120
a whole new world for us.

40
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,420
We wouldn't be doing this podcast if it weren't for them.

41
00:01:52,420 --> 00:01:54,120
Yeah, we wouldn't have known where to start

42
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:54,960
with a podcast.

43
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:56,920
So this podcast has taken off

44
00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:58,460
and it's going all over the world.

45
00:01:58,460 --> 00:02:01,820
And we're getting to meet people like,

46
00:02:05,500 --> 00:02:07,240
who was it at K-Love with us?

47
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:09,640
Sir.

48
00:02:10,640 --> 00:02:11,460
Oh, Sir Patrick.

49
00:02:11,460 --> 00:02:12,300
Sir Patrick.

50
00:02:12,300 --> 00:02:13,880
Yeah, what a cool guy.

51
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,340
No, I'm talking about K-Love.

52
00:02:16,340 --> 00:02:17,180
I know.

53
00:02:17,180 --> 00:02:19,980
Oh, Sir Patrick, but the other couple

54
00:02:19,980 --> 00:02:22,180
that supports us every day.

55
00:02:22,180 --> 00:02:23,020
Yeah, Jules, David.

56
00:02:23,020 --> 00:02:24,040
Jules and David, yeah.

57
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:24,880
Yeah, David Wicker.

58
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:25,720
Yeah.

59
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:26,560
Sir by his grace.

60
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:27,380
By his grace, yes.

61
00:02:27,380 --> 00:02:28,220
There you go, I know.

62
00:02:28,220 --> 00:02:29,920
I was trying to go by his that name,

63
00:02:29,920 --> 00:02:33,560
but getting to meet them and getting to meet Sir Patrick.

64
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,760
And so they've introduced us to a whole new world.

65
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:41,760
And then we start Carnivore while we're on sabbatical.

66
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:46,080
And now we've been opened up a whole nother world.

67
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:51,080
And today was a day I'll never forget in our life.

68
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:55,640
We were filmed for a documentary on the Carnivore journey

69
00:02:55,640 --> 00:02:57,920
called Healing Humanity.

70
00:02:57,920 --> 00:02:59,420
They're crowdfunding it now.

71
00:02:59,420 --> 00:03:00,880
They're almost ready.

72
00:03:01,860 --> 00:03:04,260
They have enough to go ahead and do a movie.

73
00:03:04,260 --> 00:03:05,100
Yeah, they can do.

74
00:03:05,100 --> 00:03:07,900
And then maybe just do another segment later.

75
00:03:07,900 --> 00:03:08,720
Yeah.

76
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:13,300
And we got the honor of being filmed in this

77
00:03:13,300 --> 00:03:15,140
and telling our story.

78
00:03:15,140 --> 00:03:16,640
And we're crying.

79
00:03:16,640 --> 00:03:17,700
While they're filming us.

80
00:03:17,700 --> 00:03:18,540
While they're filming us.

81
00:03:18,540 --> 00:03:19,880
Because we're telling stories

82
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:21,680
about what God's done in our life.

83
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,320
And then we come and sit down to just breathe for a second

84
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,620
while you're getting ready for this podcast.

85
00:03:27,620 --> 00:03:29,620
And we get this email from this couple

86
00:03:29,620 --> 00:03:33,880
that are inspirational and doing big things.

87
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,220
And it's like, God, what are you doing?

88
00:03:36,220 --> 00:03:40,320
Why is he blessing us with the privilege

89
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,200
of meeting such amazing people?

90
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,060
He's showing us, he's introducing us to people.

91
00:03:46,060 --> 00:03:48,160
Always say we don't generate the wave.

92
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:50,440
We just catch the waves that come by.

93
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:52,900
And he's bringing these waves by and we're just like,

94
00:03:52,900 --> 00:03:55,340
oh, jump on the wave and see where it takes us.

95
00:03:55,340 --> 00:03:57,880
And it's opening doors that puts us

96
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,320
into the lives of world changers.

97
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:01,140
Oh my gosh.

98
00:04:01,140 --> 00:04:02,620
Difference makers, culture shapers.

99
00:04:02,620 --> 00:04:06,720
We're just little old Jimmy and Annette in Fredericksburg.

100
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:07,720
And yet.

101
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:11,060
And yet, Carrie Mann, Adam Lacey, Ashley,

102
00:04:11,060 --> 00:04:14,900
they all came today and set up this studio.

103
00:04:14,900 --> 00:04:18,560
Anybody who's in the carnivore world knows who they are.

104
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,360
Adam Lacey, Carnivore Today.

105
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,740
You're missing out because they're amazing people.

106
00:04:22,740 --> 00:04:26,200
Carrie Mann is, he's got Homestead Howl.

107
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:27,840
He's a huge influencer.

108
00:04:27,840 --> 00:04:29,680
He's the one who's really driving

109
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:31,840
and spearheading the documentary.

110
00:04:31,840 --> 00:04:33,380
And he's the one who interviewed us.

111
00:04:33,380 --> 00:04:37,480
And then Ashley, he has a carnivore channel,

112
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:40,020
our YouTube channel, it's Carnivore Brothers.

113
00:04:40,020 --> 00:04:42,360
And he and his brother are doing carnivore together

114
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,120
and they've got a great channel.

115
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:48,020
All these guys have amazing stories

116
00:04:48,020 --> 00:04:51,160
of what just changing the way of eating,

117
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:52,840
changing their mindset.

118
00:04:52,840 --> 00:04:54,640
It's completely changed their lives.

119
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:56,100
It's transformed them.

120
00:04:56,100 --> 00:04:58,140
And they're all brothers in Christ.

121
00:04:58,140 --> 00:05:00,880
These are all godly, godly people.

122
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,240
We prayed together a couple of times, three times.

123
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:04,340
Three times we prayed.

124
00:05:04,340 --> 00:05:05,980
I prayed when we kicked it off.

125
00:05:05,980 --> 00:05:09,280
I prayed when they wanted to video us, you prayed.

126
00:05:09,280 --> 00:05:11,220
And then I prayed before they left

127
00:05:11,220 --> 00:05:13,520
and we just shot some pictures of each other.

128
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,320
And we just had such a great day together.

129
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:17,520
And they invited us.

130
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,420
There was a, what did they call it?

131
00:05:20,420 --> 00:05:22,000
Hack.

132
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:23,360
Hack your life.

133
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:24,200
Hack your health.

134
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,160
Hack your health event.

135
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,860
Large event in Austin this last weekend.

136
00:05:28,860 --> 00:05:30,940
It ended yesterday.

137
00:05:30,940 --> 00:05:35,940
And we got invited to come meet all these doctors

138
00:05:37,180 --> 00:05:39,480
that are proponents of carnivore

139
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,980
and that are gonna be in this movie

140
00:05:41,980 --> 00:05:43,520
and have dinner with them.

141
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:47,920
And we usually don't do much on a Saturday night,

142
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:51,480
especially it's at five o'clock on a Saturday evening.

143
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:53,920
And you know, Sunday's our game day.

144
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,720
And we just said, absolutely, we will be there.

145
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:58,820
So we drove an hour and a half,

146
00:05:58,820 --> 00:06:01,860
had dinner with the most amazing doctors

147
00:06:01,860 --> 00:06:05,300
that are in this carnivore world

148
00:06:05,300 --> 00:06:07,400
that are leaving their practices.

149
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,180
And they've changed our lives.

150
00:06:09,180 --> 00:06:10,440
They've changed us.

151
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:14,620
Because through their teaching about total life health,

152
00:06:14,620 --> 00:06:18,120
total life wellness, the carnivore way of eating,

153
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:22,580
it has completely changed our life from the inside out.

154
00:06:22,580 --> 00:06:25,060
Cause you know, when you get your health together,

155
00:06:25,060 --> 00:06:26,660
it impacts everything.

156
00:06:26,660 --> 00:06:28,560
It's like when you get your spiritual life together,

157
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:29,920
it impacts everything.

158
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,260
You get your mental health together, it impacts everything.

159
00:06:32,260 --> 00:06:34,760
And so there are these three great pillars,

160
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:36,460
mind, body, spirit.

161
00:06:36,460 --> 00:06:39,560
And any of those, when you dial those in,

162
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,580
you get them on track, it impacts the other things.

163
00:06:42,580 --> 00:06:46,240
And so, you know, last year during our sabbatical,

164
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:50,280
we had great, great results with our spiritual health

165
00:06:50,280 --> 00:06:51,520
and our mental health.

166
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,180
And then we got on the carnivore way of eating.

167
00:06:54,180 --> 00:06:56,820
And now all three, mind, body, and spirit

168
00:06:56,820 --> 00:06:58,360
started to work in tune.

169
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:00,620
And it has literally changed our lives.

170
00:07:00,620 --> 00:07:02,020
Yes, it has.

171
00:07:02,020 --> 00:07:03,820
I mean, our minds are blown right now.

172
00:07:03,820 --> 00:07:06,600
And the doctors that we were listening to

173
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:07,860
for the last year.

174
00:07:07,860 --> 00:07:08,940
Yeah, who were teaching us.

175
00:07:08,940 --> 00:07:10,240
Who were teaching us.

176
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:11,400
We were having dinner with them.

177
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:15,640
We had dinner with, okay, Dr. Sean Baker.

178
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:16,680
Yes.

179
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:18,080
Who is a beast of a man.

180
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:22,280
He's like six foot five, 270 pounds of pure muscle.

181
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:23,920
He's an orthopedic surgeon.

182
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:27,420
He's an orthopedic surgeon and a professional rugby player.

183
00:07:27,420 --> 00:07:28,260
No.

184
00:07:28,260 --> 00:07:29,080
He was.

185
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:29,920
He was rugby?

186
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:30,760
No.

187
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:31,580
He played rugby too.

188
00:07:31,580 --> 00:07:32,420
Yes, he did.

189
00:07:32,420 --> 00:07:33,260
Oh, I didn't know that.

190
00:07:33,260 --> 00:07:34,100
Dr. Anthony Chafee.

191
00:07:34,100 --> 00:07:35,720
Dr. Anthony, I'm going around the table.

192
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:36,660
We got a picture of us.

193
00:07:36,660 --> 00:07:37,760
I'll put it in the newsletter.

194
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:39,960
He's a neurologist.

195
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:41,060
He's in his residency.

196
00:07:41,060 --> 00:07:44,400
Residency and neurology in Perth, Australia.

197
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:47,340
He was there with his girlfriend, El Marie,

198
00:07:47,340 --> 00:07:50,940
who is also an influencer in carnivore.

199
00:07:50,940 --> 00:07:52,440
These guys are game changers.

200
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,880
They're influencing millions of people's lives.

201
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:57,880
And then I'm gonna go on around the table.

202
00:07:57,880 --> 00:07:58,980
Dr. Philip.

203
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:01,720
Ovadia.

204
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:02,760
Ovadia.

205
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:04,560
Dr. Philip Ovadia.

206
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:06,020
He is a heart doctor.

207
00:08:06,020 --> 00:08:07,920
Cardiologist.

208
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:09,720
Who's doing carnivore.

209
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:10,560
Carnivore.

210
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:12,720
Eating lots of meat.

211
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:16,760
Teaching all about health through eating meat.

212
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,100
And then the next in line was Dr. Robert Kiltz.

213
00:08:20,100 --> 00:08:21,540
Yes, fertility doctor.

214
00:08:21,540 --> 00:08:23,580
What a joy Dr. Kiltz is.

215
00:08:23,580 --> 00:08:25,980
He's one of the funnest dudes I've ever been around.

216
00:08:25,980 --> 00:08:27,200
He was in my face.

217
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,540
Like when he talks, he talks in your face.

218
00:08:30,540 --> 00:08:31,780
Yeah, he's 69 years old.

219
00:08:31,780 --> 00:08:32,780
He's about to turn 70.

220
00:08:32,780 --> 00:08:34,440
He is in peak health.

221
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:35,880
Peak health.

222
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:37,980
I mean, he's got practices all over the place.

223
00:08:37,980 --> 00:08:39,420
He is not slowing down.

224
00:08:39,420 --> 00:08:41,260
There is no retirement in his future.

225
00:08:41,260 --> 00:08:43,160
He gets up at five o'clock every morning,

226
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,700
does a podcast, a video podcast.

227
00:08:45,700 --> 00:08:48,160
Just greeting the day, greeting people.

228
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:49,400
He loves Jesus.

229
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:50,800
He loves red meat.

230
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:52,160
He loves people.

231
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,300
Faith is my foundation.

232
00:08:54,300 --> 00:08:55,140
There it is.

233
00:08:55,140 --> 00:08:55,960
Everything I do.

234
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:57,840
And I just love him.

235
00:08:57,840 --> 00:08:59,140
Great guy.

236
00:08:59,140 --> 00:09:01,940
Most positive man I've ever been around besides you.

237
00:09:01,940 --> 00:09:03,400
I mean, aw, that's so sweet.

238
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:04,240
Thank you.

239
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:05,440
That's true.

240
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:06,280
I'm trying to live up in a down world.

241
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:07,480
I know.

242
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:08,780
And he lives up in a down world every moment of his life.

243
00:09:08,780 --> 00:09:09,620
He does.

244
00:09:09,620 --> 00:09:10,720
He's up.

245
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:11,560
I'm like, are you ever in a bad mood?

246
00:09:11,560 --> 00:09:12,380
Why would I be?

247
00:09:12,380 --> 00:09:13,220
Why would I be?

248
00:09:13,220 --> 00:09:14,060
No kidding.

249
00:09:14,060 --> 00:09:15,220
Like, wow.

250
00:09:15,220 --> 00:09:16,520
So going on around the table,

251
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:17,860
because I'm looking at the picture of the table,

252
00:09:17,860 --> 00:09:19,960
is Adam Lacey of Carnivore today.

253
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,000
We got to spend Saturday evening.

254
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,040
He's the one who invited us to the shin dig.

255
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:25,300
It was amazing.

256
00:09:25,300 --> 00:09:27,740
And even Adam and Carrie Mann didn't know

257
00:09:27,740 --> 00:09:28,840
that we were all going to get to sit

258
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,500
at the rock star table of all these influencers.

259
00:09:31,500 --> 00:09:32,800
Adam's the one who said,

260
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:34,600
hey, there's two seats to go get the Pruitts.

261
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:35,840
They're VIPs.

262
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:36,680
He invited us over.

263
00:09:36,680 --> 00:09:37,520
I was like, VIPs?

264
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:38,840
He was super sweet.

265
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:39,680
Sweet.

266
00:09:39,680 --> 00:09:40,920
And so Adam Lacey,

267
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:42,320
and then Adam was with us all day today.

268
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:45,520
He's doing the videography for the documentary.

269
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,020
And he's the one,

270
00:09:48,020 --> 00:09:51,220
the first podcaster who asked you to be on his show.

271
00:09:51,220 --> 00:09:52,620
Yeah, he interviewed me on his podcast.

272
00:09:52,620 --> 00:09:55,900
And his show blew up because of you being on there.

273
00:09:55,900 --> 00:09:56,740
Yeah, it went really well.

274
00:09:56,740 --> 00:09:58,640
So you and he just got really close.

275
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,000
Yeah, we just became friends.

276
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,340
And he's a great brother in Christ.

277
00:10:01,340 --> 00:10:02,600
And then the next person was Carrie Mann.

278
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:04,180
Carrie Mann and Carrie's just-

279
00:10:04,180 --> 00:10:05,000
Oh my gosh.

280
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:06,740
He's the biggest influencer of all.

281
00:10:06,740 --> 00:10:07,780
He's huge.

282
00:10:07,780 --> 00:10:09,580
I mean, he's huge in this carnivore space.

283
00:10:09,580 --> 00:10:11,140
Homestead Howl is his YouTube channel.

284
00:10:11,140 --> 00:10:14,880
Yeah, he started off as a homestead YouTube channel,

285
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:16,860
you know, because they're homesteading up in,

286
00:10:16,860 --> 00:10:18,220
is it Michigan?

287
00:10:18,220 --> 00:10:19,060
Minnesota?

288
00:10:19,060 --> 00:10:19,880
I don't remember.

289
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:20,720
I know, I know.

290
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:21,560
It's somewhere up there.

291
00:10:21,560 --> 00:10:22,400
I'm sorry I don't.

292
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:23,220
With the M state.

293
00:10:23,220 --> 00:10:24,060
I don't think it's Minnesota.

294
00:10:24,060 --> 00:10:24,900
Yeah, it must be Michigan then.

295
00:10:24,900 --> 00:10:26,600
But anyway, so he was here today

296
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:28,200
and he did all the interviewing.

297
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,640
And just a great guy.

298
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:32,540
And he was there on Saturday night as well.

299
00:10:32,540 --> 00:10:34,500
Such a good guy.

300
00:10:34,500 --> 00:10:35,980
So coming on around the table,

301
00:10:35,980 --> 00:10:38,440
the next is Elle Marie.

302
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:39,280
Dr. Chafee's-

303
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:41,480
So that's Dr. Chafee's girlfriend.

304
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:45,420
And while they all went and did a full on panel live-

305
00:10:45,420 --> 00:10:46,380
Three hour.

306
00:10:46,380 --> 00:10:47,820
Three hour live panel.

307
00:10:47,820 --> 00:10:50,180
So it left a lot of us down below

308
00:10:50,180 --> 00:10:52,220
in this meeting place we were at.

309
00:10:52,220 --> 00:10:55,160
And so we just struck up a conversation with Elle

310
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:58,420
and it turned into a complete total utter Jesus conversation.

311
00:10:58,420 --> 00:10:59,460
Yes.

312
00:10:59,460 --> 00:11:02,700
Which here we are going to the secular event.

313
00:11:02,700 --> 00:11:04,760
Yeah, yeah, non-Christian per se.

314
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:05,600
Yeah.

315
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,640
We can't go anywhere without bringing Jesus into it.

316
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:08,480
Never, nowhere.

317
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:09,540
Can't help ourselves.

318
00:11:09,540 --> 00:11:11,980
That's bringing salt and light.

319
00:11:11,980 --> 00:11:12,800
Yeah, yeah.

320
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:14,420
That's bringing light to that salt.

321
00:11:14,420 --> 00:11:15,780
And we ended up talking to her

322
00:11:15,780 --> 00:11:17,740
and we introduced her to the U version app

323
00:11:17,740 --> 00:11:19,220
and she got super excited.

324
00:11:19,220 --> 00:11:21,320
So now she's got a Bible on her phone.

325
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:23,160
She's fairly new to the faith.

326
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,460
She found a church in Perth, Australia,

327
00:11:25,460 --> 00:11:29,060
where she grew up and it has a lovely accent.

328
00:11:29,060 --> 00:11:33,320
And just was so cool to be able to talk to her,

329
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,700
encourage her in her faith, in her journey,

330
00:11:36,700 --> 00:11:38,500
and share a little bit of our journey with her.

331
00:11:38,500 --> 00:11:40,440
And that was a beautiful conversation.

332
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:42,840
That was why we were there, I think.

333
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:43,680
I do too.

334
00:11:43,680 --> 00:11:46,140
I think that was one of the highlights.

335
00:11:46,140 --> 00:11:48,580
I was telling Tina, she said, how did it go?

336
00:11:48,580 --> 00:11:49,880
How was it?

337
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:51,380
And I said, that was one of the highlights

338
00:11:51,380 --> 00:11:52,520
of anything we've ever done.

339
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:53,720
And she goes, anything?

340
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,280
Because we all went to K-Love and it was wonderful.

341
00:11:56,280 --> 00:12:01,120
And I said, anything secular that we've been invited to

342
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:05,100
because that turned into a total God thing.

343
00:12:05,100 --> 00:12:06,900
I mean, they asked you to pray.

344
00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:11,740
I don't even know if everyone there was saved or not,

345
00:12:11,740 --> 00:12:13,940
but it was such a God thing.

346
00:12:13,940 --> 00:12:15,640
It was a total God thing.

347
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:19,000
To be invited into that space as a pastor,

348
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:23,140
as a carnivore peer, you know,

349
00:12:23,140 --> 00:12:27,380
and just, and not feel like outsiders.

350
00:12:27,380 --> 00:12:28,580
We never felt like an outsider.

351
00:12:28,580 --> 00:12:29,420
Not at all.

352
00:12:29,420 --> 00:12:30,260
They were wonderful.

353
00:12:30,260 --> 00:12:31,480
That was wonderful.

354
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,720
When you get around people that are on a mission,

355
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:36,460
whether it's a spiritual mission like ours

356
00:12:36,460 --> 00:12:38,560
or a physical health mission,

357
00:12:38,560 --> 00:12:41,360
mission does something to people.

358
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,260
It gives them that sense of purpose,

359
00:12:44,260 --> 00:12:47,040
that sense we're in something bigger than ourselves.

360
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,680
We're in over our heads in a very real sense.

361
00:12:49,680 --> 00:12:52,080
Or we're a part of something bigger than us.

362
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:55,680
That does something that brings out the best in human beings

363
00:12:55,680 --> 00:12:57,820
is when you know you're living your life on mission.

364
00:12:57,820 --> 00:13:00,880
Well, when you get around a bunch of people that are like that,

365
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,960
man, it doesn't matter what your background is,

366
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:06,660
what your profession is, nobody cares.

367
00:13:06,660 --> 00:13:08,500
It's the mission that matters.

368
00:13:08,500 --> 00:13:12,260
That's why community is so important in church

369
00:13:12,260 --> 00:13:15,340
and life groups, connect groups are so important.

370
00:13:15,340 --> 00:13:20,240
I'm gonna turn it for a minute because that is why

371
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:21,500
we need each other.

372
00:13:21,500 --> 00:13:24,040
We need to be on mission with each other

373
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:25,740
and not just by ourselves.

374
00:13:25,740 --> 00:13:26,580
Right.

375
00:13:26,580 --> 00:13:31,580
You cannot just sit at home and watch church on TV

376
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,080
and expect that that's all there is

377
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,520
because it's really more about what you're doing

378
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:38,620
with other people.

379
00:13:38,620 --> 00:13:40,860
Yeah, that's so true.

380
00:13:40,860 --> 00:13:42,520
Connection is protection.

381
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:46,560
We've said that many times, but it's so true.

382
00:13:46,560 --> 00:13:50,700
We need to connect with people that have a like-mindedness

383
00:13:50,700 --> 00:13:52,800
and you feel like you're in it together.

384
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:54,780
You're on the journey together.

385
00:13:54,780 --> 00:13:58,300
And it's amazing how God has brought us

386
00:13:58,300 --> 00:14:01,440
some different communities to be connected in

387
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:05,280
and feel like we're playing in something bigger than us

388
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:06,280
in every one of them.

389
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:07,480
And then there was one other girl.

390
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:11,660
Coming on around the table, the next one was Bella

391
00:14:11,660 --> 00:14:14,020
and she is the steak and butter girl.

392
00:14:14,020 --> 00:14:18,360
She is like a big influencer, YouTube influencer

393
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:19,460
in this space.

394
00:14:19,460 --> 00:14:21,800
I didn't realize it, she's six foot two.

395
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:25,800
And she's like from Asia.

396
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:26,640
Yeah.

397
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:27,480
Where is she from?

398
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:28,840
I don't know.

399
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:30,400
But I've never seen anybody that tall.

400
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,440
Six foot two and she is a full on carnivore,

401
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:36,620
thin as a rail, I mean, just beautiful tall.

402
00:14:36,620 --> 00:14:38,440
But I did not expect to be looking up

403
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:39,920
and talking to a girl from Asia.

404
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:43,420
So she was amazing and such a sweet soul.

405
00:14:43,420 --> 00:14:44,920
She went right over to you and just hugged you.

406
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:46,260
She grabbed me and hugged me like she knew me.

407
00:14:46,260 --> 00:14:47,160
Didn't even know you.

408
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:48,000
Nope, never met me.

409
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:48,820
And there's just something.

410
00:14:48,820 --> 00:14:50,060
Yeah.

411
00:14:50,060 --> 00:14:51,060
The whole group was like that.

412
00:14:51,060 --> 00:14:52,300
They were all just sweet.

413
00:14:52,300 --> 00:14:53,560
All the doctors were like that.

414
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,500
They were all just very loving.

415
00:14:55,500 --> 00:14:58,640
And it was like, oh, you're one of us.

416
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:00,440
And just took us in like we were.

417
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:01,280
Community.

418
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:02,100
Yeah.

419
00:15:02,100 --> 00:15:03,000
It was beautiful.

420
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:03,840
It was beautiful.

421
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:04,680
It really was.

422
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:05,500
The whole evening was wonderful.

423
00:15:05,500 --> 00:15:06,640
And then we ate.

424
00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:07,480
Tomahawks.

425
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:10,920
Every one of us got a two pound plus Tomahawk rib eye.

426
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,240
It had to be a lot more.

427
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:13,180
Oh, it was huge.

428
00:15:13,180 --> 00:15:15,220
It could have been closer to three pounds.

429
00:15:15,220 --> 00:15:16,980
I could barely have a pound.

430
00:15:16,980 --> 00:15:18,560
And it was on a cutting board.

431
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:20,080
Every one of us had cutting boards.

432
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:21,560
Is the person after my heart.

433
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:22,400
Yeah.

434
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:23,860
Whoever thought of that after my heart.

435
00:15:23,860 --> 00:15:25,900
I hate eating on plates, especially meat.

436
00:15:25,900 --> 00:15:26,720
Yeah.

437
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:28,260
And so it was all on cutting boards.

438
00:15:28,260 --> 00:15:30,360
And then they had, what kind of butter was that?

439
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:31,200
Bone marrow.

440
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:32,500
Bone marrow butter.

441
00:15:32,500 --> 00:15:34,540
That Adam Lacey actually made.

442
00:15:34,540 --> 00:15:36,240
Unbelievable.

443
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:37,080
Oh wow.

444
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:38,280
Salted and unsalted.

445
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:39,100
They did bone.

446
00:15:39,100 --> 00:15:40,340
It's uber healthy for you.

447
00:15:40,340 --> 00:15:41,180
It was really good.

448
00:15:41,180 --> 00:15:42,340
And it is so good.

449
00:15:42,340 --> 00:15:43,180
It's so rich.

450
00:15:43,180 --> 00:15:44,020
So that's all we had.

451
00:15:44,020 --> 00:15:44,840
Big old Tomahawk.

452
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:46,120
And then they had prime rib too.

453
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:47,180
And then flaked salt.

454
00:15:47,180 --> 00:15:48,320
Flaked salt and butter.

455
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:49,160
Oh my gosh.

456
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:50,180
And we left.

457
00:15:50,180 --> 00:15:51,020
Topo Chico's.

458
00:15:51,020 --> 00:15:51,860
Topo Chico's.

459
00:15:51,860 --> 00:15:52,680
Topo Chico's.

460
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:53,520
It was a drink for the night.

461
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:57,320
Literally we're just, we left so full.

462
00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:58,160
Full.

463
00:15:58,160 --> 00:15:59,000
In our tummies.

464
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:00,360
And full in our spirit.

465
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:01,260
No kidding.

466
00:16:01,260 --> 00:16:02,560
It was so beautiful.

467
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:03,800
Beautiful evening.

468
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:04,640
Like you said, you know,

469
00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:07,100
we usually don't give up a Saturday night

470
00:16:07,100 --> 00:16:08,200
to be with a lot of people.

471
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:09,180
Cause it's exhausting.

472
00:16:09,180 --> 00:16:11,440
And then we had three services on Sunday morning.

473
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:13,340
So, and we got back late.

474
00:16:13,340 --> 00:16:15,320
Cause we had to drive over to Wimberley,

475
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:16,480
which is over by Austin.

476
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:19,240
So it was a long evening,

477
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,020
but it was so rich and so good.

478
00:16:22,020 --> 00:16:22,860
I wouldn't trade.

479
00:16:22,860 --> 00:16:23,680
I wouldn't trade for anything.

480
00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:24,760
God has enriched our life.

481
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,460
He's just enriched our life with the most amazing people.

482
00:16:27,460 --> 00:16:28,400
Beautiful, amazing people.

483
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:29,820
Our church.

484
00:16:29,820 --> 00:16:31,700
Our congregation.

485
00:16:31,700 --> 00:16:33,900
Just every week we're just,

486
00:16:33,900 --> 00:16:36,000
we're giddy that we get to,

487
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:38,240
we get to pastor

488
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,340
and do life with this,

489
00:16:40,340 --> 00:16:42,840
this church congregation that God gave us.

490
00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:45,180
And we don't take it for granted.

491
00:16:45,180 --> 00:16:46,180
No, not at all.

492
00:16:46,180 --> 00:16:49,580
We're so grateful that God gave us another chance

493
00:16:49,580 --> 00:16:52,480
to pastor as we're aging.

494
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:53,320
Because you know,

495
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:55,220
a lot of people at our age are like,

496
00:16:55,220 --> 00:16:56,660
they, they're retiring,

497
00:16:56,660 --> 00:16:58,460
but us we're refiring.

498
00:16:58,460 --> 00:16:59,580
Totally refiring.

499
00:16:59,580 --> 00:17:02,520
And so we're very excited about

500
00:17:03,500 --> 00:17:06,000
the future of Bridge Church

501
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:09,800
and what God is doing in us and through us.

502
00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,400
And it's, it's exciting.

503
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:13,940
It's an exciting time.

504
00:17:13,940 --> 00:17:16,500
I don't think we've ever been

505
00:17:16,500 --> 00:17:19,340
in a place like this for this long

506
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,820
and so giddy.

507
00:17:22,820 --> 00:17:24,720
I feel rich in the right way.

508
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:25,540
You know what I'm saying?

509
00:17:25,540 --> 00:17:26,740
I'm not talking about money.

510
00:17:26,740 --> 00:17:28,320
I feel rich.

511
00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:31,260
I feel wealthy with life.

512
00:17:31,260 --> 00:17:33,560
Wealthy and just rich with life

513
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:35,360
because of the friends and the people,

514
00:17:35,360 --> 00:17:36,960
the acquaintances,

515
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,060
the conversations, the connections.

516
00:17:39,060 --> 00:17:41,260
And so that was on Saturday night,

517
00:17:41,260 --> 00:17:43,640
Sunday morning, we did three services back to back.

518
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:44,860
We're going to summer schedule,

519
00:17:44,860 --> 00:17:46,340
which will be two services,

520
00:17:46,340 --> 00:17:48,300
which I'm really feeling good about right now

521
00:17:48,300 --> 00:17:49,500
because it did get exhausting.

522
00:17:49,500 --> 00:17:50,340
Start Sunday.

523
00:17:50,340 --> 00:17:51,180
Six months of three.

524
00:17:51,180 --> 00:17:52,340
I'm already relieved.

525
00:17:52,340 --> 00:17:53,680
Yeah, me too.

526
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:55,420
But we have so many people,

527
00:17:55,420 --> 00:17:57,980
volunteers especially that are out a lot

528
00:17:57,980 --> 00:17:58,820
during the summer.

529
00:17:58,820 --> 00:18:01,120
We didn't want to put our kids at risk

530
00:18:01,120 --> 00:18:04,060
of not being able to gather together as well.

531
00:18:04,060 --> 00:18:05,520
So we had a great day on Sunday morning.

532
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:06,460
Course just great.

533
00:18:06,460 --> 00:18:07,860
And your message,

534
00:18:07,860 --> 00:18:11,900
you used the title from our podcast last week

535
00:18:11,900 --> 00:18:13,600
that I came up with.

536
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:17,260
You used that to just develop your whole message

537
00:18:17,260 --> 00:18:18,700
because it-

538
00:18:18,700 --> 00:18:21,300
See how this podcast is helping us do church

539
00:18:21,300 --> 00:18:22,840
and do our ministry.

540
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:24,240
Look for God in it.

541
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:28,720
And that was the email that we got today

542
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:31,140
from this couple in Dripping Springs.

543
00:18:31,140 --> 00:18:33,660
They happened to just stumble upon-

544
00:18:33,660 --> 00:18:34,660
Upon that message.

545
00:18:34,660 --> 00:18:36,060
Upon that message.

546
00:18:36,060 --> 00:18:38,160
And it got their attention.

547
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:39,220
Look for God in it.

548
00:18:39,220 --> 00:18:40,620
And then reached out to us.

549
00:18:40,620 --> 00:18:45,360
You know, that's what we're doing in everything we do.

550
00:18:45,360 --> 00:18:47,160
We're looking for God in it.

551
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:49,720
You know, you can say, well, I'm not carnivore.

552
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:50,700
I don't believe in it.

553
00:18:50,700 --> 00:18:51,540
I don't want to do it.

554
00:18:51,540 --> 00:18:52,360
Well, that's fine.

555
00:18:52,360 --> 00:18:55,000
But we looked for God in it.

556
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:56,640
And we prayed about it and said,

557
00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:58,400
Lord, is this what you want us to do?

558
00:18:58,400 --> 00:18:59,400
Everybody's different.

559
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,180
And everybody has to do what's good for them.

560
00:19:02,180 --> 00:19:04,440
And I'm a little bit more keto for.

561
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:06,740
I will have a little bit of keto-ish stuff.

562
00:19:06,740 --> 00:19:08,840
Like a little bit of fruit here and there.

563
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:12,520
If I don't, I'm going to dwindle down to 100 pounds.

564
00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:13,680
You don't want me to do that.

565
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:15,380
You're going to disappear.

566
00:19:15,380 --> 00:19:18,400
But, and I, because I can't eat the kind of meat you eat.

567
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,460
You can eat a pound or two easy.

568
00:19:21,460 --> 00:19:23,300
I can't do that.

569
00:19:23,300 --> 00:19:28,300
But to me, what we have done is we've looked for God

570
00:19:28,300 --> 00:19:30,000
even in that.

571
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,180
And now he's introducing us,

572
00:19:33,100 --> 00:19:36,000
inviting us into this lane of people

573
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:40,440
that we're impacting and they're impacting us.

574
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:42,440
And that, isn't that what life is about?

575
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:43,280
That is.

576
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:44,580
I mean, and really that,

577
00:19:44,580 --> 00:19:46,720
that's the theme of today's podcast is community.

578
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:47,560
Community.

579
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:48,380
And connection.

580
00:19:48,380 --> 00:19:52,400
And the fact that God gifts us with these relationships

581
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:54,920
and people that come into our lives,

582
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:58,460
that we get to contribute something to them

583
00:19:58,460 --> 00:20:00,160
and they contribute something to us.

584
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:03,100
There's this beautiful exchange that happens.

585
00:20:03,100 --> 00:20:04,700
But you don't do it to get something.

586
00:20:04,700 --> 00:20:06,340
It just happens that way.

587
00:20:06,340 --> 00:20:09,040
But I have to bring up Ashley who came.

588
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:10,100
Yeah, he's a mate.

589
00:20:10,100 --> 00:20:10,940
It's a guy.

590
00:20:10,940 --> 00:20:11,780
It's a dude.

591
00:20:11,780 --> 00:20:12,620
Ashley, great.

592
00:20:12,620 --> 00:20:13,440
His name is Greg.

593
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:14,280
I love him.

594
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:15,520
Oh, what a good guy.

595
00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:17,280
When we met him Sunday night and we,

596
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:20,060
we told him that Carrie and them are coming out here

597
00:20:20,060 --> 00:20:22,120
to film with us.

598
00:20:22,120 --> 00:20:24,020
And he just kind of had this look and I said,

599
00:20:24,020 --> 00:20:24,920
are you coming with them?

600
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:26,720
And he said, well, no.

601
00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:29,920
I said, you should tell them we would like for you to come.

602
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,060
And he was like, you're going to let me come?

603
00:20:32,060 --> 00:20:34,260
Like, you want me to come?

604
00:20:34,260 --> 00:20:35,100
Yeah.

605
00:20:35,100 --> 00:20:36,300
And we were like, yes,

606
00:20:36,300 --> 00:20:37,800
because we really connected with him.

607
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:40,780
And sure enough, he comes in with them.

608
00:20:40,780 --> 00:20:44,400
And I was so happy to see him because he was a,

609
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:46,040
he's a godly man.

610
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,980
He's been in the same church for like 24 years

611
00:20:48,980 --> 00:20:51,080
in Roanoke, Texas.

612
00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:54,080
And it was just so cool to meet

613
00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,320
and get to spend time with him.

614
00:20:56,320 --> 00:21:01,320
And we watched him, his channel is Carnivore Brothers.

615
00:21:02,460 --> 00:21:04,120
He and his brother, younger brother,

616
00:21:04,120 --> 00:21:06,220
do a channel.

617
00:21:06,220 --> 00:21:08,760
And we, I recognized him.

618
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:10,400
I couldn't remember which one

619
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:12,200
because there's so many Carnivore channels.

620
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:15,500
And I was like, oh my gosh, we've seen you.

621
00:21:15,500 --> 00:21:17,980
We've watched you and you inspired us.

622
00:21:17,980 --> 00:21:19,840
And he was like, little old me.

623
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:20,680
It's like, yeah.

624
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:21,520
I know, I know.

625
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:22,340
It's cool.

626
00:21:22,340 --> 00:21:26,780
Because when you find a community that's impactful,

627
00:21:26,780 --> 00:21:31,160
you want to glean everything you can

628
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,560
from the different people that are part of that community.

629
00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:34,760
Yeah, that's right.

630
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,360
And it's the same thing in the church world.

631
00:21:37,360 --> 00:21:41,860
We listened to Pastor Alan Jackson, Pastor Jack Hibbs,

632
00:21:41,860 --> 00:21:43,860
Pastor Robert Morris.

633
00:21:43,860 --> 00:21:47,000
You know, we have several different pastors we listen to

634
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:50,600
because we want to glean wisdom that they have.

635
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:52,440
Because we don't know it all.

636
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,480
We can read the Bible, we can get revelation,

637
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:58,720
but God puts people in your path

638
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:01,280
and you got to spend time with Robert Morris personally.

639
00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:04,280
We got to go to Alan Jackson's church recently.

640
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:05,920
Jack Hibbs, we were going to have to go

641
00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:07,620
to Southern California at some point.

642
00:22:07,620 --> 00:22:08,860
We'll have to get out there for sure.

643
00:22:08,860 --> 00:22:10,760
Just to get in his orbit.

644
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:14,900
But it's important that you connect

645
00:22:14,900 --> 00:22:17,740
with those people that bring life to you.

646
00:22:17,740 --> 00:22:18,560
There you go.

647
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:20,200
So that's really what connection,

648
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:21,800
and when we say connection is protection,

649
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:23,340
that means a lot of things.

650
00:22:23,340 --> 00:22:25,940
It means that there's somebody there when you're down.

651
00:22:25,940 --> 00:22:27,500
They're up, you're down.

652
00:22:27,500 --> 00:22:31,080
Or there's somebody there that's inspiring you.

653
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:32,840
That's cheering you on.

654
00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:35,680
We need people around us that will do that.

655
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:36,720
And sometimes people say,

656
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:38,160
well, it's hard to find a community.

657
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:39,920
Yeah, sometimes you got to be the creator.

658
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:41,420
You got to be the catalyst.

659
00:22:41,420 --> 00:22:43,620
And you actually generate the community.

660
00:22:43,620 --> 00:22:45,520
You start it, you get the ball rolling.

661
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:49,460
And so we've just have found these communities

662
00:22:49,460 --> 00:22:50,560
over the years.

663
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:51,800
And we just kind of jump in.

664
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:53,140
And we just jump in and go, we're here.

665
00:22:53,140 --> 00:22:54,260
We're not afraid.

666
00:22:54,260 --> 00:22:55,600
No, that's true, we're not shy.

667
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:57,540
People have started to do that with us

668
00:22:57,540 --> 00:22:58,980
as they've gotten to know us.

669
00:22:58,980 --> 00:23:01,340
And we're like, we just need some time with y'all.

670
00:23:01,340 --> 00:23:03,580
Like we're going out to dinner with the Hobricks tonight.

671
00:23:03,580 --> 00:23:07,440
And yes, we want that too.

672
00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:12,220
We hope and pray that we're the inspiration

673
00:23:12,220 --> 00:23:13,460
for someone else.

674
00:23:13,460 --> 00:23:15,320
That they want to get time with us and spend time

675
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:19,020
and glean from the wisdom that God's given us.

676
00:23:19,020 --> 00:23:20,600
But it works both ways.

677
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:24,000
So we got to do that on Saturday nights.

678
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:25,660
We step into a new community

679
00:23:25,660 --> 00:23:27,200
and it's like instant brothers.

680
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:28,440
I mean, instant.

681
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:29,940
Members exchange, everything.

682
00:23:29,940 --> 00:23:31,940
Instant, like instantaneous.

683
00:23:31,940 --> 00:23:36,080
And then Adam and Tina, Crury invited us to-

684
00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:36,920
Their dinner.

685
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:37,740
Their dinner.

686
00:23:37,740 --> 00:23:40,680
They were doing this thing on Monday night.

687
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,220
And it was with some guys that are,

688
00:23:43,220 --> 00:23:44,060
they have a podcast.

689
00:23:44,060 --> 00:23:46,860
They were speakers at the Austin.

690
00:23:46,860 --> 00:23:48,160
Hacking Your Health.

691
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:50,460
Yeah, so they were involved in that as well.

692
00:23:50,460 --> 00:23:53,060
And it's two guys, Harry and Brett.

693
00:23:53,060 --> 00:23:57,140
And they've got a podcast, a website called The Meat Mafia.

694
00:23:57,140 --> 00:23:58,200
I love that name.

695
00:23:58,200 --> 00:23:59,040
We got to spend time with them.

696
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:00,140
And Charles, who owns-

697
00:24:00,140 --> 00:24:00,960
Got to hang out with them.

698
00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:02,500
Charles is the Pharaoh guy.

699
00:24:02,500 --> 00:24:03,340
Pharaoh guy.

700
00:24:03,340 --> 00:24:04,880
Who he raises pigs.

701
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:05,900
He raises hogs.

702
00:24:05,900 --> 00:24:08,940
And then he takes this fat

703
00:24:08,940 --> 00:24:12,980
and creates these amazing skin creams out of-

704
00:24:12,980 --> 00:24:15,420
Yes, and they're packaged beautifully too, by the way.

705
00:24:15,420 --> 00:24:16,820
Oh, it's amazing what he's done.

706
00:24:16,820 --> 00:24:18,420
He's very entrepreneurial.

707
00:24:18,420 --> 00:24:19,780
These are just giants.

708
00:24:19,780 --> 00:24:21,060
These are super cool people.

709
00:24:21,060 --> 00:24:23,320
Of course, David and Andrea were with us as well.

710
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:24,160
Had a sweet time with them.

711
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:25,400
Had a great time with them.

712
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:27,000
And then Brett brought his girlfriend

713
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,900
and I didn't get her name, so super sweet.

714
00:24:29,900 --> 00:24:31,040
She's from-

715
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:31,860
Tina will know.

716
00:24:31,860 --> 00:24:33,360
She's from New Jersey.

717
00:24:33,360 --> 00:24:35,640
Anyway, we got to spend the evening with them.

718
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:37,600
And here we are stepping into another new community.

719
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:39,600
We didn't get to sleep till one in the morning last night.

720
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:41,880
Oh my gosh, we're like party animals now.

721
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,580
But we stepped into this beautiful community.

722
00:24:44,580 --> 00:24:46,620
Rocked some meat, a bunch of meat people.

723
00:24:46,620 --> 00:24:48,320
We had tomahawks again.

724
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:49,320
Two?

725
00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:50,160
I know, a rib eye.

726
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:51,520
Two times in one week.

727
00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:52,360
Tomahawks.

728
00:24:52,360 --> 00:24:53,960
I know, come on, I'm getting spoiled.

729
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:55,820
But we had the best time.

730
00:24:55,820 --> 00:24:56,960
And these guys are young.

731
00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:58,320
They're entrepreneurial.

732
00:24:58,320 --> 00:24:59,620
They're health conscious.

733
00:24:59,620 --> 00:25:01,360
It's all about wellness.

734
00:25:01,360 --> 00:25:03,440
And we buzzed.

735
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:05,700
I mean, I paused a couple of times

736
00:25:05,700 --> 00:25:08,240
and just looked around the table and so did Adam.

737
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:10,040
We were laughing together.

738
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:11,400
Cause we're like, listen to this.

739
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:13,580
I said, this is the buzz factor.

740
00:25:13,580 --> 00:25:14,980
This is when life is happening.

741
00:25:14,980 --> 00:25:18,140
When people are all talking at the same time.

742
00:25:18,140 --> 00:25:20,920
It was like a roar in that place.

743
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:22,020
Yeah, over at their house.

744
00:25:22,020 --> 00:25:24,380
But it was such a beautiful time.

745
00:25:24,380 --> 00:25:27,320
And I was having those thoughts at what we're talking

746
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:30,800
about today about community is like everything.

747
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,060
It's what brings life.

748
00:25:33,060 --> 00:25:34,760
It's what gives you hope.

749
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:36,740
It's what inspires.

750
00:25:36,740 --> 00:25:40,540
And I had a couple of surreal moments where I'm like,

751
00:25:40,540 --> 00:25:43,480
I'm so grateful that I get to be here.

752
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:44,300
Absolutely.

753
00:25:44,300 --> 00:25:45,480
In this group of people.

754
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:47,240
And some of them I just met for the first time.

755
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:48,920
And yet we're talking like we're best friends.

756
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:50,880
Like we've known each other forever.

757
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:52,480
That's the power of community.

758
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:53,320
It is.

759
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:54,380
It is something.

760
00:25:54,380 --> 00:25:58,080
And wherever you are,

761
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:00,660
wherever you're hearing us at right now,

762
00:26:00,660 --> 00:26:04,520
I want to encourage you that there is a community for you.

763
00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:06,800
There are people just like you.

764
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:08,200
I won't say identical.

765
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:09,800
They don't have all the same dynamics.

766
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:11,040
No, that would be weird.

767
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:14,240
But they're like you in the sense that they need community

768
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:15,540
too.

769
00:26:15,540 --> 00:26:18,080
And sometimes we just have to stop and pray and say,

770
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,740
God, I need people in my life.

771
00:26:20,740 --> 00:26:24,280
I remember when Adam and Tina moved here to Fredericksburg.

772
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:25,240
They had no friends.

773
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:26,080
No friends.

774
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:26,920
They didn't know anybody here.

775
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:30,080
And Tina was just feeling this sense of,

776
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:31,080
I have no friends.

777
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:33,160
And now she has more friends than I've ever had

778
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:34,160
in my lifetime.

779
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:39,160
Oh yeah, you're on their text chain and it's non-stop.

780
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:40,660
So yay you.

781
00:26:40,660 --> 00:26:43,200
So anyway, but it's such a beautiful thing.

782
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:45,600
She was worried that she's moving from Austin

783
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:48,600
to Fredericksburg and that she wouldn't have any friends.

784
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:49,540
And look what God does.

785
00:26:49,540 --> 00:26:50,380
Boom.

786
00:26:50,380 --> 00:26:51,380
Watch what I'm gonna do.

787
00:26:51,380 --> 00:26:54,540
And now she's got so many different community friends.

788
00:26:54,540 --> 00:26:55,380
It's crazy.

789
00:26:55,380 --> 00:26:56,420
Different communities, exactly.

790
00:26:56,420 --> 00:26:58,220
Cause I've got their no agenda friends

791
00:26:58,220 --> 00:26:59,720
who they have meetups all the time.

792
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:00,720
Which is so cool.

793
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:02,820
And then she stayed connected with her friends

794
00:27:02,820 --> 00:27:06,060
from other places, Peggy and Julie and all them,

795
00:27:06,060 --> 00:27:08,760
from other, and Tim from other places.

796
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:11,500
And yeah, she's surrounded.

797
00:27:11,500 --> 00:27:12,320
Yeah.

798
00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:13,160
Isn't that beautiful?

799
00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:14,360
Power of community.

800
00:27:14,360 --> 00:27:15,660
It's so important.

801
00:27:15,660 --> 00:27:19,400
So many people are so afraid to get out there

802
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:24,400
and I think too people don't, they're afraid that,

803
00:27:25,580 --> 00:27:27,040
because I know this from me.

804
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:28,940
It was like, I'm afraid if people get to know me,

805
00:27:28,940 --> 00:27:30,240
they won't like me.

806
00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:32,420
I think everybody has a little bit of that in them.

807
00:27:32,420 --> 00:27:33,240
Yeah, I do too.

808
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:34,080
I do.

809
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:38,420
I think people have that, what if they think I'm a fraud?

810
00:27:38,420 --> 00:27:39,260
Yeah.

811
00:27:39,260 --> 00:27:40,620
What if they think I'm not authentic?

812
00:27:40,620 --> 00:27:41,460
Yeah, exactly.

813
00:27:41,460 --> 00:27:45,420
I think that is something that everyone struggles with

814
00:27:45,420 --> 00:27:46,600
to a degree.

815
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:48,860
Well, I was talking to Adam Lacey today because,

816
00:27:48,860 --> 00:27:52,840
I did that testimony where I was on camera

817
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:54,240
for that YouTube video.

818
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:55,060
Oh, right, right.

819
00:27:55,060 --> 00:27:58,300
And then today we're gonna be in a movie.

820
00:27:58,300 --> 00:28:01,840
And I said, I don't like to be videoed.

821
00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:04,780
He said, I really wanna see y'all's podcast get on video.

822
00:28:04,780 --> 00:28:06,880
And I said, well, I just don't.

823
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,920
And he goes, you know, Annette, he said,

824
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,620
I used to be so afraid to talk.

825
00:28:12,620 --> 00:28:13,920
I didn't even wanna talk.

826
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:17,060
And he said, now I just don't care what other people think.

827
00:28:17,060 --> 00:28:19,160
God's given me a voice and I'm gonna use it.

828
00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:20,000
I love that.

829
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,200
And I said, oh, well, mine's not always

830
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:24,260
about what people think, it's just what I think.

831
00:28:24,260 --> 00:28:26,400
But you're right, it's probably what people think.

832
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:28,300
Because if I think that, then they're gonna think that.

833
00:28:28,300 --> 00:28:29,140
Oh my gosh.

834
00:28:29,140 --> 00:28:32,540
But the thing is, is we've gotta lay that down,

835
00:28:32,540 --> 00:28:34,180
lay that aside and go,

836
00:28:34,180 --> 00:28:38,280
what is it that God wants me to glean from this person?

837
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:41,120
Or what can I do if we can

838
00:28:43,020 --> 00:28:46,780
understand that God wants to use us to help other people?

839
00:28:46,780 --> 00:28:50,460
I mean, we're God's hands and feet.

840
00:28:50,460 --> 00:28:51,300
Yes, we are.

841
00:28:51,300 --> 00:28:52,800
And we're his voice.

842
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:57,360
I mean, he uses us to help people.

843
00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:00,140
We're in this world to make it a better world.

844
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:05,340
And it's so important that we use our voice,

845
00:29:05,340 --> 00:29:10,120
use what God has given us and the gifts that he's given us

846
00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:14,340
and develop our characters.

847
00:29:14,340 --> 00:29:16,260
We've gotta develop our characters.

848
00:29:16,260 --> 00:29:19,460
And then be that to those people that need

849
00:29:19,460 --> 00:29:20,760
what we have to offer,

850
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:24,060
because God's using us in every way.

851
00:29:24,060 --> 00:29:25,320
So let me share this principle,

852
00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:27,560
because you're describing something that I shared

853
00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:30,700
with Adam and Ashley and Kerry.

854
00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:35,300
As we were talking, we were thanking them

855
00:29:35,300 --> 00:29:36,600
for what they're doing.

856
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:39,580
And then I just said, I know this is a sacrifice for you guys.

857
00:29:39,580 --> 00:29:41,340
You're sacrificing your time,

858
00:29:41,340 --> 00:29:43,580
sacrificing your families, your money.

859
00:29:43,580 --> 00:29:45,120
Because they're driving everywhere,

860
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:47,440
they're traveling all over the place.

861
00:29:48,620 --> 00:29:50,980
They're having to raise this unbelievable amount of money

862
00:29:50,980 --> 00:29:52,420
to do this.

863
00:29:52,420 --> 00:29:54,020
And yet they believe they're on a mission.

864
00:29:54,020 --> 00:29:56,560
They believe that God gave this to them as a mission.

865
00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:59,120
And so they're doing it, which is remarkable.

866
00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:00,760
And I said, you know, guys,

867
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:04,760
I said, you guys are sacrificing so much to do this.

868
00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:09,500
And I said this, I said, fire falls on sacrifice.

869
00:30:09,500 --> 00:30:11,800
Fire falls on sacrifice.

870
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:14,540
In other words, God's presence,

871
00:30:14,540 --> 00:30:17,640
God's blessing representing His Spirit,

872
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:20,840
the fire of the Holy Spirit falls on sacrifice.

873
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:23,320
And that was my prayer for them as we prayed together

874
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:25,920
that God would pour Himself out upon them

875
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:27,260
and energize them.

876
00:30:27,260 --> 00:30:29,320
They wouldn't go away from today tired,

877
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:30,720
they would go away inspired.

878
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:32,760
Yeah, energized.

879
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:36,420
Because, and I want you to hear this too,

880
00:30:36,420 --> 00:30:41,000
as you're with us today, part of the Living Up family

881
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:45,700
and listening, fire falls on sacrifice.

882
00:30:45,700 --> 00:30:48,180
And when we sacrifice on behalf of others,

883
00:30:49,340 --> 00:30:51,440
we got a lot going right now.

884
00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:52,680
I mean a lot.

885
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:56,220
And then somebody calls and says, I have to meet with you.

886
00:30:56,220 --> 00:30:59,360
And it would be real tempting to say, oh my gosh,

887
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:00,480
we have to see you.

888
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:02,420
I can't add another thing.

889
00:31:02,420 --> 00:31:04,760
But fire falls on sacrifice.

890
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,560
And so it's like, okay, let's carve out a time for that.

891
00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:09,020
Okay, we'll meet with you.

892
00:31:09,020 --> 00:31:10,200
And then somebody else calls.

893
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:11,200
And then we get a text.

894
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:12,600
And then we get a little email.

895
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:13,760
And if we're saying no, it's literally

896
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:14,860
because our calendar is so full.

897
00:31:14,860 --> 00:31:15,960
It's literally because we can't.

898
00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:17,040
I mean, literally.

899
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:21,480
But we're at a point where we want to be used by God

900
00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:22,540
to help other people.

901
00:31:22,540 --> 00:31:25,980
And we want to be not just community takers,

902
00:31:25,980 --> 00:31:27,540
but community makers.

903
00:31:27,540 --> 00:31:28,840
I love that.

904
00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:30,280
And where we're not just taking community

905
00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:32,220
from other people and receiving it,

906
00:31:32,220 --> 00:31:34,980
but we're also giving it back as a gift.

907
00:31:34,980 --> 00:31:37,580
And so I want you to be encouraged

908
00:31:37,580 --> 00:31:39,820
that the sacrifice you might make

909
00:31:39,820 --> 00:31:41,560
in order to connect with other people

910
00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:44,520
and gather with other people and build community,

911
00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:48,500
fire falls on that presence of God, the blessing of God.

912
00:31:48,500 --> 00:31:49,940
The heart of God falls on that.

913
00:31:49,940 --> 00:31:50,760
Does that make sense?

914
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:52,400
Oh yeah, totally.

915
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:54,140
So blown away.

916
00:31:54,140 --> 00:31:54,980
Blown away.

917
00:31:54,980 --> 00:31:56,200
I'm full as a tick.

918
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:57,140
I'm full as a tick.

919
00:31:57,140 --> 00:32:01,640
And then today, of course, doing the actual,

920
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:03,980
I'll put pictures on our newsletter,

921
00:32:03,980 --> 00:32:07,160
but doing the actual documentary that-

922
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:08,480
Filming.

923
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:10,720
Filming up on our platform at the church.

924
00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:12,820
And they brought all their own lighting.

925
00:32:12,820 --> 00:32:15,060
It took an hour for them to just put everything together.

926
00:32:15,060 --> 00:32:16,300
Oh, the setup is unbelievable.

927
00:32:16,300 --> 00:32:17,120
Really cool.

928
00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:18,860
I got some cool pictures of that.

929
00:32:18,860 --> 00:32:20,900
But then Kerry did the interview

930
00:32:20,900 --> 00:32:23,740
and it was just so beautiful.

931
00:32:23,740 --> 00:32:26,900
Just his heart for one, he's such a real guy,

932
00:32:26,900 --> 00:32:28,640
such a good guy.

933
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:32,440
But also he just teed it up for us to share our hearts.

934
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:35,580
Well, and when I saw the cast of everybody

935
00:32:35,580 --> 00:32:37,120
that's gonna be in this documentary,

936
00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:38,920
and we've met most of them now,

937
00:32:40,020 --> 00:32:42,780
I told them, I said, why us?

938
00:32:42,780 --> 00:32:44,320
Of all the people.

939
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:45,160
You did.

940
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:48,920
And they said, because people need to hear y'all's story.

941
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:53,700
And I just was like, it hit me

942
00:32:53,700 --> 00:32:57,200
that the reason why they want people to hear our story

943
00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:59,240
because ours involves faith.

944
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:00,600
It does, yeah.

945
00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:03,180
And they wanted people to know about our faith

946
00:33:03,180 --> 00:33:07,380
and about our church and about our community

947
00:33:07,380 --> 00:33:11,480
and our journey at our age.

948
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:13,420
It's humbling, isn't it?

949
00:33:13,420 --> 00:33:14,260
Very humbling.

950
00:33:14,260 --> 00:33:15,480
I can't even tell you how humbling it was.

951
00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:20,500
It was, I just, like you, was just in tears.

952
00:33:22,500 --> 00:33:24,020
And they showed the trailer,

953
00:33:24,020 --> 00:33:26,640
they did a little trailer of what they have

954
00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:28,000
so far of the movie.

955
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:28,840
It was amazing.

956
00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:29,900
They let us see it.

957
00:33:29,900 --> 00:33:31,140
They were filming us.

958
00:33:31,140 --> 00:33:32,000
Did you know they were filming us

959
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:33,300
while we were watching it?

960
00:33:33,300 --> 00:33:34,340
While I'm crying like a baby.

961
00:33:34,340 --> 00:33:35,480
And we're both crying.

962
00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:37,680
Where tears are just falling down.

963
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:40,240
We're both crying and it was phenomenal.

964
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:43,520
It was like, this is really good.

965
00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:45,280
I would use the word anointed.

966
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:46,820
It was.

967
00:33:46,820 --> 00:33:47,660
It was powerful.

968
00:33:47,660 --> 00:33:49,120
And we're not even in there yet.

969
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:51,320
No, that was free us.

970
00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:53,320
It was just a little snippet

971
00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:55,000
and then they're gonna add to it.

972
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,860
And I was just like, I would watch that documentary.

973
00:33:57,860 --> 00:33:59,560
In a heartbeat.

974
00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:03,200
And so I pray that it just goes gangbusters.

975
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:05,600
And it's gonna help a lot of people.

976
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:08,000
A lot of people.

977
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:10,940
They're not about just trying to make money at all.

978
00:34:10,940 --> 00:34:12,240
No, no, these guys are trying to.

979
00:34:12,240 --> 00:34:14,740
They use a lot of their own moneys.

980
00:34:14,740 --> 00:34:16,680
But they're trying to get the word out.

981
00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:21,780
But I love the fact that they wanted to use someone of faith

982
00:34:21,780 --> 00:34:24,520
and we could bring our faith journey in there.

983
00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:26,120
That says a lot about them.

984
00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:27,900
I know, I know it.

985
00:34:27,900 --> 00:34:32,400
Just to be a part of something like this was such an honor.

986
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:34,600
I feel blessed.

987
00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:35,440
I know.

988
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:36,260
I can't even describe it.

989
00:34:36,260 --> 00:34:37,100
I feel the same way.

990
00:34:37,100 --> 00:34:38,740
It is hard to put into words.

991
00:34:40,940 --> 00:34:42,800
Sometimes things just come along

992
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:44,580
and you know you didn't create it.

993
00:34:44,580 --> 00:34:46,380
You didn't do anything.

994
00:34:46,380 --> 00:34:47,780
You just said yes in the moment.

995
00:34:47,780 --> 00:34:51,540
Because all you did was reach out to one of the podcasters

996
00:34:51,540 --> 00:34:53,580
or one of the YouTube channel and just said,

997
00:34:53,580 --> 00:34:55,180
hey, love what you are doing.

998
00:34:55,180 --> 00:34:56,660
And he invites you on the show.

999
00:34:56,660 --> 00:34:58,020
Well, I just encouraged him

1000
00:34:58,020 --> 00:35:00,720
and gave him a snippet of our story.

1001
00:35:00,720 --> 00:35:02,120
And then he reached back.

1002
00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:05,520
And said, hey, I'd like to have you on my show.

1003
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:07,860
And then it just blew up from there.

1004
00:35:07,860 --> 00:35:09,700
Now you've been on many podcasts.

1005
00:35:09,700 --> 00:35:11,200
You, not me.

1006
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:13,400
And then the Meat Mafia Boys.

1007
00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,100
I'm gonna be on their podcast.

1008
00:35:16,100 --> 00:35:17,180
I'm so looking forward to it.

1009
00:35:17,180 --> 00:35:18,640
Well, Ashley wants you to be on his.

1010
00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:21,080
So I'll be on the Carrefour Brothers podcast.

1011
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:22,380
Yeah, I'm looking forward to this.

1012
00:35:22,380 --> 00:35:24,940
Because my heart,

1013
00:35:24,940 --> 00:35:26,780
and this is what we continue to say throughout

1014
00:35:26,780 --> 00:35:29,520
the documentary today, but also just in personally,

1015
00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:32,120
our heart is to help as many people as possible.

1016
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:35,560
And that's mentally, spiritually, and physically.

1017
00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:37,920
It's all that, mind, body, spirit.

1018
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:39,420
We want to help as many people.

1019
00:35:39,420 --> 00:35:43,300
And so whatever space we have an opportunity to do that in,

1020
00:35:43,300 --> 00:35:47,000
this was carnivore and health, man, we're full on.

1021
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:50,140
Spiritually, Sunday morning, the rest of my 24-7,

1022
00:35:50,140 --> 00:35:51,540
we're full on.

1023
00:35:51,540 --> 00:35:54,300
Mental health, taking care of your thinking,

1024
00:35:54,300 --> 00:35:56,280
not having to think, we're full on.

1025
00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:57,580
Mind-morse.

1026
00:35:57,580 --> 00:35:59,120
The mind-morse of what we've been doing.

1027
00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:03,380
So this is just, it's just one more facet of the diamond,

1028
00:36:03,380 --> 00:36:05,580
so to speak, that we get to participate in.

1029
00:36:05,580 --> 00:36:09,160
And we live to help other people succeed.

1030
00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:13,160
We live to see other people live up in a down world.

1031
00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:15,800
Just so, so our buckets are full.

1032
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:16,860
But I have to tell you.

1033
00:36:16,860 --> 00:36:17,700
Oh, please do.

1034
00:36:17,700 --> 00:36:19,000
I brought this up to Tina.

1035
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:20,640
I'm sure she's gonna bring it up to Adam.

1036
00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:22,440
So I don't know if Adam is gonna talk to us,

1037
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:27,440
but I want to change the name to Meet Pray Love,

1038
00:36:28,780 --> 00:36:32,340
because we're carnivore, we're spiritual,

1039
00:36:32,340 --> 00:36:35,080
we're all about love, we're all about praying.

1040
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:38,220
Love of God, love people, love ourself

1041
00:36:38,220 --> 00:36:40,220
enough to do something about it.

1042
00:36:41,720 --> 00:36:43,660
But we have living up in a down world,

1043
00:36:43,660 --> 00:36:46,720
and I'm like, how can we mix the two as far as,

1044
00:36:46,720 --> 00:36:49,000
but the name is so much simpler

1045
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,260
than living up in a down world.

1046
00:36:51,260 --> 00:36:53,760
And Tina said, well, maybe you should slowly

1047
00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:56,840
change your podcast, but you're gonna need a jingle.

1048
00:36:56,840 --> 00:36:59,900
So we need a jingle, someone out there.

1049
00:36:59,900 --> 00:37:04,240
She's gonna bring it up on her show.

1050
00:37:04,240 --> 00:37:07,180
They need a jingle for Meet Pray Love.

1051
00:37:07,180 --> 00:37:10,280
But we already have the YouTube channel, Meet Pray Love.

1052
00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:11,920
Well, actually it's living up in a down world.

1053
00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:13,760
Change the title of it, which I can change it back.

1054
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:14,880
That's easy.

1055
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:17,320
So anyway, yeah, so guys, just those of you

1056
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:20,760
that are with us today, be patient with us

1057
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,460
because we're really sensing a pull

1058
00:37:23,460 --> 00:37:26,600
of something God's doing,

1059
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:29,160
and we just wanna be faithful to his call.

1060
00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:31,000
We don't want it to be all about carnivore though.

1061
00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:32,440
It's not gonna be like that.

1062
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:34,400
We wanna keep doing what we're doing spiritually.

1063
00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:36,780
It's meat, that's carnivore, it's pray,

1064
00:37:36,780 --> 00:37:38,940
that's our spiritual journey, and it's love,

1065
00:37:38,940 --> 00:37:40,580
that's connection and community.

1066
00:37:40,580 --> 00:37:45,580
And, but we wanna do like a short carnivore corner

1067
00:37:46,420 --> 00:37:47,820
at the very end of the broadcast.

1068
00:37:47,820 --> 00:37:49,460
We can't not do that.

1069
00:37:49,460 --> 00:37:52,560
If people don't wanna listen to that part,

1070
00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:54,960
then they can just turn us off right then.

1071
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:57,460
But if they do, we're gonna have about 10 minutes

1072
00:37:57,460 --> 00:37:59,260
of what's happening on our carnivore journey.

1073
00:37:59,260 --> 00:38:01,860
Because we have to be ourselves.

1074
00:38:01,860 --> 00:38:02,860
Yeah, that's it.

1075
00:38:02,860 --> 00:38:04,100
We gotta be true to ourselves.

1076
00:38:04,100 --> 00:38:06,780
And it's not necessarily just carnivore,

1077
00:38:06,780 --> 00:38:08,300
but it's health.

1078
00:38:08,300 --> 00:38:09,640
Maybe have a health moment.

1079
00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:12,180
Taking care of ourselves, stewarding ourselves.

1080
00:38:12,180 --> 00:38:16,520
Because that, and that may be giving up sugar.

1081
00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:20,020
If you just give up sugar and any grains

1082
00:38:20,020 --> 00:38:22,260
that turn into sugar, that will change your whole life.

1083
00:38:22,260 --> 00:38:23,460
It'll change your life.

1084
00:38:23,460 --> 00:38:25,160
Because I'm not against keto.

1085
00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:26,400
I'm not against keto.

1086
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:28,860
And that's eating vegetables and fruit and all that.

1087
00:38:28,860 --> 00:38:31,460
And every now and then I will do that.

1088
00:38:31,460 --> 00:38:32,940
But it's health.

1089
00:38:32,940 --> 00:38:35,500
Maybe it should be the health corner.

1090
00:38:35,500 --> 00:38:37,900
Because it's not just carnivore.

1091
00:38:37,900 --> 00:38:40,500
Or maybe those of you that are with us today,

1092
00:38:40,500 --> 00:38:42,200
maybe you've got a good thought

1093
00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:43,640
of what that segment could be.

1094
00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:46,180
Now we just had this living up and a down world sign.

1095
00:38:46,180 --> 00:38:48,780
So we would have to put meat, pray, love.

1096
00:38:48,780 --> 00:38:49,620
Over the top of it.

1097
00:38:49,620 --> 00:38:50,880
Bigger.

1098
00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:52,380
Put it in red letters instead of blue.

1099
00:38:52,380 --> 00:38:54,220
The meat of the word, hello.

1100
00:38:54,220 --> 00:38:55,260
Oh, I know, I know.

1101
00:38:55,260 --> 00:38:56,620
It has a lot of connotations.

1102
00:38:56,620 --> 00:38:58,420
It has a lot of connotations.

1103
00:38:58,420 --> 00:39:01,620
But it also is, ah, yeah.

1104
00:39:01,620 --> 00:39:04,900
So it's kinda encompasses everything.

1105
00:39:04,900 --> 00:39:06,140
I know.

1106
00:39:06,140 --> 00:39:07,400
Living up and down world is long.

1107
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:09,740
And I think we need to do this, Jimmy.

1108
00:39:09,740 --> 00:39:12,240
I think we need to pull the trigger and do this.

1109
00:39:12,240 --> 00:39:14,440
We'll full talk more about it after we figure it out.

1110
00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:16,880
He's gonna hear this and he's gonna tell us.

1111
00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:18,480
I hope he doesn't say no.

1112
00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:22,920
But Tina was like, I think you should slowly do it.

1113
00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:24,720
Or just pull the trigger and do it.

1114
00:39:24,720 --> 00:39:29,720
But we definitely have to have a jingle.

1115
00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:32,360
Because we already have living up and a down world jingle.

1116
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,000
So any thoughts from our listeners?

1117
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:35,960
I mean, those of you that are with us today,

1118
00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:38,100
you listen, you're part of this.

1119
00:39:38,100 --> 00:39:39,000
And you're with us.

1120
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,040
You're part of our community too.

1121
00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:44,400
And what do you think about the name meat, pray, love?

1122
00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:48,880
And you don't have to think of meat as in just meat.

1123
00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:50,640
But the meat of the word.

1124
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:54,180
Because God talks about the meat.

1125
00:39:54,180 --> 00:39:58,820
He talks about it in the New Testament

1126
00:39:58,820 --> 00:40:01,760
about we shouldn't just live off of milk.

1127
00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:02,960
We need the meat.

1128
00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:05,460
And I like that.

1129
00:40:05,460 --> 00:40:07,600
And it's short and sweet and simple.

1130
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:08,760
But anyway.

1131
00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:09,900
So let us know what you think.

1132
00:40:09,900 --> 00:40:10,960

I do every day.

1141
00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:27,540
They're all posted every morning.

1142
00:40:27,540 --> 00:40:29,520
Talk about meat.

1143
00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:30,820
That's meat.

1144
00:40:30,820 --> 00:40:33,660
No, your devotions.

1145
00:40:33,660 --> 00:40:36,160
No, I'm saying your devotion is meat

1146
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:38,820
that we're getting first thing in the morning.

1147
00:40:38,820 --> 00:40:39,660
Yeah, yeah.

1148
00:40:39,660 --> 00:40:40,900
Which I love.

1149
00:40:40,900 --> 00:40:42,360
Which I need you to write women's devotions.

1150
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:44,600
So anyway, moving right along.

1151
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:46,000
So yeah, go to our website.

1152
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:48,140

You can write us a note.

1154
00:40:50,300 --> 00:40:54,100
You can register, sign up to receive our newsletter.

1155
00:40:54,100 --> 00:40:55,280
And we'll get that out to you.

1156
00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:58,080
So go to livingupandadownworld.com.

1157
00:40:58,080 --> 00:40:59,840
And man, we'd love to hear from you.

1158
00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:01,580
And we wanna hear your thoughts on this.

1159
00:41:01,580 --> 00:41:02,820
I mean, some of you may think,

1160
00:41:02,820 --> 00:41:05,120
ah, no, it's too much health and wellness stuff.

1161
00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:07,560
Or some of you may think, oh wait, I need that actually.

1162
00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:10,060
And it won't be, but just a short amount.

1163
00:41:10,060 --> 00:41:12,020
Because who we are is more important.

1164
00:41:12,020 --> 00:41:13,600
For sure, for sure.

1165
00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:14,700
Spiritual beings, yes.

1166
00:41:14,700 --> 00:41:15,800
We'd love to hear from you.

1167
00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:18,100
Hope you guys are doing well.

1168
00:41:18,100 --> 00:41:20,760
And what else is going on in our life?

1169
00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:21,940
We got dinner tonight.

1170
00:41:21,940 --> 00:41:23,500
Man, we're gonna go have more meat.

1171
00:41:23,500 --> 00:41:24,340
We're gonna go have more meat.

1172
00:41:24,340 --> 00:41:25,440
We're gonna have steaks tonight.

1173
00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:26,280
Steaks.

1174
00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:27,100
With some friends.

1175
00:41:27,100 --> 00:41:27,940
Oh, I'm so looking forward to that.

1176
00:41:27,940 --> 00:41:28,780
A lot of good things happening.

1177
00:41:28,780 --> 00:41:30,680
So many good things happening.

1178
00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:32,940
And then on Friday night,

1179
00:41:32,940 --> 00:41:36,080
we got invited by a wonderful couple in our church

1180
00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:37,680
that we're getting to know.

1181
00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:41,320
We're going to a TPUSA conference.

1182
00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:42,660
We're just going to the one session.

1183
00:41:42,660 --> 00:41:45,360
And we get to meet Charlie Kirk in person.

1184
00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:46,200
Talk with him.

1185
00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:47,800
I'm really excited about that.

1186
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:51,240
This is a blessing, but we're part of the VIP thing.

1187
00:41:51,240 --> 00:41:53,060
The executive VIP, they call it.

1188
00:41:53,060 --> 00:41:55,540
So we get to meet Charlie and that'll be cool.

1189
00:41:55,540 --> 00:41:57,400
Shake his hand, probably get a photo op.

1190
00:41:57,400 --> 00:41:59,840
Who knows, right?

1191
00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:00,680
What are you doing over there?

1192
00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:01,940
Oh, you are so cute.

1193
00:42:01,940 --> 00:42:02,780
I did a neon sign.

1194
00:42:02,780 --> 00:42:04,180
There needs to be more spacing between the words.

1195
00:42:04,180 --> 00:42:05,280
I know, I agree.

1196
00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:07,280
Or even a hyphen maybe.

1197
00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:09,320
She's already doing logos for me at Pray Love.

1198
00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:11,480
She's out of control.

1199
00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:12,320
Am I though?

1200
00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:14,880
Oh, and we want to apologize.

1201
00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:16,420
Mr. Chevy's not with us today

1202
00:42:16,420 --> 00:42:19,700
because we've been shooting this film all morning.

1203
00:42:19,700 --> 00:42:22,960
So we did not have time to go home and get him

1204
00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:26,040
and get back up here because we're eating in a little bit.

1205
00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:27,460
So, so sorry.

1206
00:42:27,460 --> 00:42:30,040
Mr. Chevy's disappointed, I'm sure.

1207
00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:32,200
We'll tell him you said hi.

1208
00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:33,400
Anything else, Prudit, over there?

1209
00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:34,240
You just-

1210
00:42:34,240 --> 00:42:35,080
Oh gosh.

1211
00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:35,900
You're so distracted.

1212
00:42:35,900 --> 00:42:36,740
I'm so full.

1213
00:42:36,740 --> 00:42:38,140
I know, I got excited about doing this.

1214
00:42:38,140 --> 00:42:41,620
No, I'm just full of life.

1215
00:42:41,620 --> 00:42:42,620
I just love life.

1216
00:42:42,620 --> 00:42:43,620
Yeah, me too.

1217
00:42:43,620 --> 00:42:44,820
And I think there's so much-

1218
00:42:44,820 --> 00:42:46,780
My buckets are, I'm KYBLing.

1219
00:42:46,780 --> 00:42:49,660
Well, there's so much darkness out there,

1220
00:42:49,660 --> 00:42:54,660
but because this week we have been immersed in the light,

1221
00:42:55,700 --> 00:42:57,200
I don't even remember what the darkness is out there.

1222
00:42:57,200 --> 00:42:59,060
It's only Tuesday.

1223
00:42:59,060 --> 00:42:59,900
This week.

1224
00:42:59,900 --> 00:43:00,940
It feels like it's been a whole week.

1225
00:43:00,940 --> 00:43:01,760
It does.

1226
00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:03,200
It's just Tuesday.

1227
00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:04,340
But you know what?

1228
00:43:04,340 --> 00:43:06,000
I haven't really, I mean,

1229
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:08,780
we had some bad news last week with Trump

1230
00:43:08,780 --> 00:43:10,240
and everything that's happening there.

1231
00:43:10,240 --> 00:43:12,080
And we had some bad news.

1232
00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:13,720
We talked about it on our last podcast

1233
00:43:13,720 --> 00:43:16,340
with some friends that were going through some trial,

1234
00:43:16,340 --> 00:43:17,780
a big trial.

1235
00:43:17,780 --> 00:43:22,020
But I think from Saturday through now,

1236
00:43:22,020 --> 00:43:23,520
Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesdays,

1237
00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:27,960
four days of just inspiration.

1238
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:28,800
Yeah.

1239
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:31,060
And so I can say it's been a week.

1240
00:43:31,060 --> 00:43:32,860
I'm gonna start it on Saturday.

1241
00:43:32,860 --> 00:43:33,700
It feels like a week.

1242
00:43:33,700 --> 00:43:36,400
And Sunday was the highlight getting to be

1243
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:37,240
with the church people,

1244
00:43:37,240 --> 00:43:40,240
but also our last third service.

1245
00:43:40,240 --> 00:43:41,400
And truthfully,

1246
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:43,440
I'm still buzzing from the K-Love Award Show.

1247
00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:44,280
Oh my God.

1248
00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:45,240
I'm still, I can't shake it.

1249
00:43:45,240 --> 00:43:46,580
I don't think we're ever gonna.

1250
00:43:46,580 --> 00:43:49,920
Well, I made a playlist on my Amazon Unlimited

1251
00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:53,560
and I'm putting all the songs we heard,

1252
00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:54,720
all the artists we heard.

1253
00:43:54,720 --> 00:43:57,180
And I just, I'm running at 24 seven.

1254
00:43:57,180 --> 00:43:59,020
I can't stop listening to it.

1255
00:43:59,020 --> 00:44:00,400
It was so good.

1256
00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:03,520
And it was such a joy to go with Adam and Tina.

1257
00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:05,500
Can you put a hyphen between meet and pray?

1258
00:44:05,500 --> 00:44:06,500
Let me put a hyphen.

1259
00:44:06,500 --> 00:44:07,340
That's a hyphen.

1260
00:44:07,340 --> 00:44:08,160
It's a simple.

1261
00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:09,000
Let me see.

1262
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:09,840
I know.

1263
00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:10,660
I'm sorry.

1264
00:44:10,660 --> 00:44:11,500
I'm so involved in this.

1265
00:44:11,500 --> 00:44:12,940
She's already running off with this.

1266
00:44:12,940 --> 00:44:16,100
So anyway, K-Love was such a great experience

1267
00:44:16,100 --> 00:44:18,840
that I'm already excited about next year

1268
00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:19,680
and doing it again.

1269
00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:20,620
Oh, I am too.

1270
00:44:20,620 --> 00:44:23,320
And getting to go with our friends, Adam and Tina.

1271
00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:26,720
Such, I mean, last night we're sitting around the table

1272
00:44:26,720 --> 00:44:27,960
with a ton of people, right?

1273
00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:31,160
And they are so loud, foods flying.

1274
00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:33,020
It's just one of those amazing events.

1275
00:44:33,020 --> 00:44:35,020
But you know what I'm doing the whole time?

1276
00:44:35,020 --> 00:44:36,320
Yeah, that's much better.

1277
00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:37,620
You know what I'm doing the whole time?

1278
00:44:37,620 --> 00:44:39,700
I'm thinking about how blessed we are

1279
00:44:39,700 --> 00:44:41,700
that God brought Adam and Tina into our lives.

1280
00:44:41,700 --> 00:44:42,540
Well, that's what I said.

1281
00:44:42,540 --> 00:44:43,700
It started with them.

1282
00:44:43,700 --> 00:44:44,540
It's just amazing.

1283
00:44:44,540 --> 00:44:47,240
Our life began to change

1284
00:44:47,240 --> 00:44:49,980
because they introduced us to the podcast world.

1285
00:44:49,980 --> 00:44:54,340
But we went on sabbatical during the time that we met them.

1286
00:44:54,340 --> 00:44:55,740
And they were the ones that we,

1287
00:44:55,740 --> 00:44:57,380
the only ones we would spend time with for two months.

1288
00:44:57,380 --> 00:44:58,620
Yeah, we hung out with them.

1289
00:44:58,620 --> 00:44:59,680
Yeah.

1290
00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:00,980
Besides family.

1291
00:45:00,980 --> 00:45:05,980
And so it was just, it's been an amazing year.

1292
00:45:06,860 --> 00:45:08,020
It really, really has.

1293
00:45:08,020 --> 00:45:10,720
We are truly, truly blessed.

1294
00:45:10,720 --> 00:45:13,600
Our buckets are literally running over.

1295
00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:15,160
I mean, wild.

1296
00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:17,260
And so thank you for being with us today.

1297
00:45:17,260 --> 00:45:18,500
We wanna encourage you.

1298
00:45:18,500 --> 00:45:21,740
We've got, wow, we gotta go home, take care of Mr. Shabby.

1299
00:45:21,740 --> 00:45:23,040
I know, before we go eat dinner.

1300
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:24,440
He's gotta go out and do his business.

1301
00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:26,240
So we can take him home.

1302
00:45:26,240 --> 00:45:27,640
Honey, that's a prophet.

1303
00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:28,480
That's a prophet.

1304
00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:29,580
STMI, isn't it?

1305
00:45:29,580 --> 00:45:30,740
We wanna thank you again.

1306
00:45:30,740 --> 00:45:32,740
And we hope, our prayer for you,

1307
00:45:32,740 --> 00:45:34,740
our hope and our prayer for you

1308
00:45:34,740 --> 00:45:37,760
is that you are finding grace in Jesus Christ,

1309
00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:39,980
that you're finding hope in Jesus,

1310
00:45:39,980 --> 00:45:42,060
that even though this world is crazy,

1311
00:45:42,060 --> 00:45:44,920
that you're learning how to live up and down world

1312
00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:49,120
and to not allow this world to spin you up

1313
00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:50,400
and to spin you out.

1314
00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:53,040
So we love you, praying for you.

1315
00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:55,240
We love hearing from you.

1316
00:45:55,240 --> 00:45:56,440
Let us know what you think.

1317
00:45:56,440 --> 00:45:57,480
Meet, pray, love.

1318
00:45:57,480 --> 00:45:58,840
We're just kicking it around.

1319
00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:00,580
Annette's already running down the road on it.

1320
00:46:00,580 --> 00:46:01,880
She's already developed a logo,

1321
00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:03,280
a new unsigned and everything.

1322
00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:07,120
So anyway, and she did it all while we're on air today.

1323
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:11,120
I love, yeah, I like a lot.

1324
00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:12,560
I know you like new beginnings.

1325
00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:13,580
You like new beginnings.

1326
00:46:13,580 --> 00:46:14,420
I like change.

1327
00:46:14,420 --> 00:46:15,260
I do too.

1328
00:46:15,260 --> 00:46:16,160
I need change.

1329
00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:17,000
I know it's crazy, isn't it?

1330
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:17,900
Some people can't handle change.

1331
00:46:17,900 --> 00:46:19,060
That's true.

1332
00:46:19,060 --> 00:46:19,900
I've always loved change.

1333
00:46:19,900 --> 00:46:21,500
That's another topic for another day.

1334
00:46:21,500 --> 00:46:22,560
Hey, we love you guys.

1335
00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:24,660
Have an amazing week on purpose.

1336
00:46:24,660 --> 00:46:27,740
What's, wait, we still have a lot of week left.

1337
00:46:27,740 --> 00:46:28,740
It's just Tuesday.

1338
00:46:28,740 --> 00:46:29,580
I know.

1339
00:46:29,580 --> 00:46:31,240
We'll release this on Wednesday though.

1340
00:46:31,240 --> 00:46:32,080
Yeah.

1341
00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:32,900
All right.

1342
00:46:32,900 --> 00:46:33,740
Much love to y'all.

1343
00:46:33,740 --> 00:46:35,440
Have an amazing week on purpose.

1344
00:46:35,440 --> 00:46:37,780
Share this if this brings value to you.

1345
00:46:37,780 --> 00:46:39,220
Yes, share this.

1346
00:46:39,220 --> 00:46:40,780
Get the word out.

1347
00:46:40,780 --> 00:46:42,760
We're having fun and we're having fun with you.

1348
00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:43,580
God bless you.

1349
00:46:43,580 --> 00:46:44,580
Have a great week.

1350
00:46:44,580 --> 00:47:06,320
Krankenhaus.
