1
00:00:00.920 --> 00:00:05.160
Waiting the day that sounds. I gotta get to the

2
00:00:05.360 --> 00:00:11.919
star bugs, get some magic beings, me on my way,

3
00:00:14.519 --> 00:00:20.320
magical as was my bum. We don't know, there's no

4
00:00:21.199 --> 00:00:23.280
for that today.

5
00:00:24.199 --> 00:00:27.640
Well, hi everyone, welcome to these days with Jeff and Stefan.

6
00:00:27.760 --> 00:00:29.559
Of course we're going to attack to day from that

7
00:00:29.600 --> 00:00:33.039
Catholic perspective, but we're not excluding anybody, so we hope

8
00:00:33.039 --> 00:00:35.479
you enjoy Eric, I am Jeff and Steph. How are

9
00:00:35.560 --> 00:00:36.719
things out there in Nashville.

10
00:00:37.119 --> 00:00:39.920
It's been a weird day. It's been a weird day,

11
00:00:41.320 --> 00:00:44.759
but yeah, it's you know, it's last night Rasha Shanna began.

12
00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:47.280
A lot of prophets are talking about it. I had

13
00:00:47.320 --> 00:00:50.039
a friend tell me yesterday, Stephanie, if you wrote a

14
00:00:50.640 --> 00:00:53.359
book about your life, I don't know if anybody believe it.

15
00:00:53.439 --> 00:00:56.359
So it's been a weird day. How are things out

16
00:00:56.399 --> 00:00:57.000
in Colorado?

17
00:00:57.439 --> 00:01:03.200
Cold and rainy? That's not Caldo, But yeah, what is

18
00:01:03.439 --> 00:01:05.680
the first full day of fall or something like that?

19
00:01:05.760 --> 00:01:08.519
Our highest fifty degree has just been raining. The higher

20
00:01:08.560 --> 00:01:11.680
mountains they're all getting snow right.

21
00:01:11.959 --> 00:01:15.920
Interesting. Yeah, last night Rassashana began and it was a

22
00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:18.120
new moon, and it was the first day of fall.

23
00:01:18.400 --> 00:01:20.200
So it's like all kind of falling together.

24
00:01:20.200 --> 00:01:23.719
That's right. So for our Catholics or wherever can you

25
00:01:23.760 --> 00:01:24.719
explain Rasashana?

26
00:01:25.120 --> 00:01:29.480
Rasashana is the Jewish New year, and you know the

27
00:01:29.560 --> 00:01:33.920
Jewish spiritual calendar. You know, they the Jews adopted the

28
00:01:33.959 --> 00:01:39.040
Gregorian calendar starting in January through December for the practical

29
00:01:39.400 --> 00:01:42.439
day to day, but for their spiritual calendar they do

30
00:01:42.519 --> 00:01:45.560
still go by you know, there there and we're in

31
00:01:45.599 --> 00:01:48.000
the what year fifty? So this is the year fifty

32
00:01:48.799 --> 00:01:49.200
you know, you.

33
00:01:49.359 --> 00:01:51.439
Think fifty nine, sixty seven or something like that.

34
00:01:51.719 --> 00:01:54.040
Something mean, you'll see tons of prophetic videos on it.

35
00:01:54.120 --> 00:01:59.560
So yeah, this this year is basically Rashashana begins a

36
00:01:59.599 --> 00:02:03.719
time of its kind of like the Catholic Lent in

37
00:02:03.879 --> 00:02:08.400
the way that it's a time for repenting of your sins, reflecting,

38
00:02:09.120 --> 00:02:12.360
and you really you have until yam Kapoor, which happens

39
00:02:12.360 --> 00:02:15.400
on ten ten October tenth, because in the Bible, yam

40
00:02:15.479 --> 00:02:18.639
Kapoor happens on the tenth day of the seventh month,

41
00:02:18.759 --> 00:02:22.319
and it is the seventh month in the spiritual October

42
00:02:22.319 --> 00:02:26.159
would fall into the seventh month for the spiritual Jewish calendar,

43
00:02:26.639 --> 00:02:29.159
so it's actually ten ten, and I keep seeing ten

44
00:02:29.199 --> 00:02:31.560
ten everywhere. And when I tell you, I don't know

45
00:02:31.560 --> 00:02:33.719
what's going to happen for me on October tenth when

46
00:02:33.800 --> 00:02:37.199
y Kipoor happens. But it like I'll get a receipt,

47
00:02:37.240 --> 00:02:39.759
I'll buy something in my receipt the numbers ten ten

48
00:02:40.280 --> 00:02:42.400
or the amount is ten dollars and ten cents. It

49
00:02:42.439 --> 00:02:44.800
just keeps coming up everywhere.

50
00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:48.759
For me, So and Russia, Shana. It's lunar, that verying calendar.

51
00:02:48.759 --> 00:02:51.479
It's lunar, so it's not solar. It's kind of like,

52
00:02:52.159 --> 00:02:55.240
so to help the Catholics, why Lint is different everywhere

53
00:02:55.280 --> 00:02:56.879
because they kind of go by that that's what they know.

54
00:02:57.039 --> 00:02:59.639
But that's why Lint East was not the same.

55
00:02:59.560 --> 00:03:04.039
Day every year exactly exactly. So yeah, we can I

56
00:03:04.080 --> 00:03:06.439
think we can all feel that a shift happened today.

57
00:03:07.199 --> 00:03:09.599
There was a shift. I woke up and today's definitely

58
00:03:09.680 --> 00:03:13.800
been a day of forward movement, unexpected things. I actually

59
00:03:13.840 --> 00:03:16.280
even have. It came yesterday and I put a little

60
00:03:17.080 --> 00:03:19.960
stencil on my wall in my dining room from the

61
00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:21.800
movie The Holiday that I love that quote so much.

62
00:03:21.919 --> 00:03:24.199
All bets are off, anything can happen.

63
00:03:25.319 --> 00:03:28.560
That is true. And then one thing that we're going

64
00:03:28.639 --> 00:03:31.639
to talk about is this shift and everything and all that.

65
00:03:32.080 --> 00:03:35.479
It's a revival time too. But in order to do

66
00:03:35.520 --> 00:03:37.280
the revival, I think every one of us we need

67
00:03:37.319 --> 00:03:40.000
to step back and kind of realize, you have a

68
00:03:40.039 --> 00:03:41.360
really good analogy coming up.

69
00:03:41.800 --> 00:03:45.639
Yes, yes, you sent me this video and I'm going

70
00:03:45.719 --> 00:03:47.199
to try to do it justice. You can find it

71
00:03:47.240 --> 00:03:51.919
on TikTok. But it's basically, and interestingly God, every time

72
00:03:51.960 --> 00:03:55.280
I've opened the Bible several times lately, it's been there's

73
00:03:55.319 --> 00:03:58.879
a parable called the two Eagles in the Bible, and

74
00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:02.319
so I've opened it up to several times. So basically,

75
00:04:02.840 --> 00:04:06.719
I think this Rushiashana season, you're going to see yourself

76
00:04:07.199 --> 00:04:09.400
if you can imagine yourself as an eagle. This really

77
00:04:09.479 --> 00:04:12.960
does apply to everybody. So eagles can live up to

78
00:04:13.039 --> 00:04:16.680
seventy years because they are so mentally strong. But after

79
00:04:16.759 --> 00:04:20.240
forty years they have a difficult decision to make because

80
00:04:20.279 --> 00:04:22.879
their claws are no longer sharp enough to hunt, their

81
00:04:22.879 --> 00:04:26.240
beak is bent and blunt, their feathers are thick. They

82
00:04:26.279 --> 00:04:29.600
have two options. They can either die or they can

83
00:04:29.680 --> 00:04:33.920
go through a painful transformation. Now, the painful change requires

84
00:04:33.920 --> 00:04:37.040
that the eagle go to the mountain. Hear that prophetically

85
00:04:37.040 --> 00:04:39.600
that means a higher place, can't get there without God.

86
00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:41.800
So they have to go to the mountain and they

87
00:04:41.839 --> 00:04:44.360
have to crush their beak on a rock until it

88
00:04:44.399 --> 00:04:47.240
falls off. Once the new beak grows in, they can

89
00:04:47.360 --> 00:04:50.560
rip out. They will rip out all their claws, and

90
00:04:50.720 --> 00:04:53.560
new claws grow in, and they'll rip out all their feathers,

91
00:04:53.839 --> 00:04:56.480
and new feathers grow in. And after this the eagle

92
00:04:56.560 --> 00:04:58.600
gets a new life. And I think the moral of

93
00:04:58.639 --> 00:05:00.560
that is that sometimes we have to get rid of

94
00:05:00.600 --> 00:05:03.399
our old self in order for a new and better

95
00:05:03.560 --> 00:05:04.680
version to emerge.

96
00:05:05.000 --> 00:05:07.279
That is just an awesome Yeah.

97
00:05:07.519 --> 00:05:10.000
I really, I truly believe that. I think I've already

98
00:05:10.040 --> 00:05:11.399
been through it. I think I'm sitting here with my

99
00:05:11.439 --> 00:05:13.959
new feathers right now because God has told me. You've

100
00:05:13.959 --> 00:05:16.560
been kind of called to be a forerunner and pioneer,

101
00:05:16.759 --> 00:05:19.279
go ahead of the crowd. That's why we're doing the podcast.

102
00:05:19.680 --> 00:05:22.240
But people going into the season and you need to understand,

103
00:05:22.839 --> 00:05:27.560
it's either die if you're or become a better, newer

104
00:05:27.680 --> 00:05:29.759
version of yourself. That's what we're in.

105
00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:33.519
And when we say die, we don't mean necessarily die

106
00:05:33.560 --> 00:05:36.399
and go to you know, we're talking die spiritually, where

107
00:05:36.399 --> 00:05:38.800
you're not going to grow anymore. You're basically done. You're

108
00:05:38.839 --> 00:05:40.920
not going to go forward with God or Jesus.

109
00:05:41.120 --> 00:05:43.120
Yeah, well I'm not. That might be your belief, but

110
00:05:43.199 --> 00:05:45.720
actually have seen people, a lot of people taken out.

111
00:05:45.959 --> 00:05:49.240
I think if you are repentant, then it's time for

112
00:05:49.319 --> 00:05:52.800
you to to transform and pluck out all your feathers.

113
00:05:53.199 --> 00:05:55.199
But if you're somebody who's not going to repent and

114
00:05:55.240 --> 00:05:57.800
you're just going to continually sin, I think God's going

115
00:05:57.879 --> 00:05:59.600
to be removing a lot of people off the earth.

116
00:06:00.079 --> 00:06:02.720
And I've seen it happen, you know, with some people

117
00:06:02.759 --> 00:06:05.439
who are just really nasty, not good people. And the

118
00:06:05.480 --> 00:06:07.759
crazy thing is, I go to this park today I've

119
00:06:07.759 --> 00:06:10.040
never seen before. It came to my mind this morning.

120
00:06:10.399 --> 00:06:12.160
I just discovered it and I thought, I'm gonna take

121
00:06:12.199 --> 00:06:14.399
my dog back there and up back there at the

122
00:06:14.439 --> 00:06:17.360
exact moment that a girl, the only girl I liked

123
00:06:17.600 --> 00:06:20.639
that I used to work with, was there too, and

124
00:06:20.800 --> 00:06:23.439
we had this conversation. I mean, you can't make this

125
00:06:23.480 --> 00:06:26.199
stuff up, and she was saying, yeah, I think a

126
00:06:26.240 --> 00:06:28.399
lot of people. She was talking about what happened at

127
00:06:29.040 --> 00:06:31.560
my job how the people that came against me were

128
00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:33.160
really taken out, She goes. I wish you could have

129
00:06:33.199 --> 00:06:36.199
seen it, She goes. It was dramatic the way the

130
00:06:36.279 --> 00:06:39.399
higher ups came in and took them out. And I

131
00:06:39.480 --> 00:06:42.079
think it's a time of justice, and you're going to

132
00:06:42.120 --> 00:06:45.079
see that the humble people. God is going to exalt

133
00:06:45.160 --> 00:06:48.879
and glorify and be pouring so much grace and love

134
00:06:48.920 --> 00:06:50.920
on to you that you're not even going to feel worthy.

135
00:06:51.279 --> 00:06:52.639
I think that's going to be part of it. I

136
00:06:52.720 --> 00:06:55.120
think you're gonna, you know, you're you're gonna have the

137
00:06:55.120 --> 00:06:57.319
new You're then the new wine skin, and you're gonna

138
00:06:57.319 --> 00:06:59.439
have the new wine poured into you so much that

139
00:06:59.480 --> 00:07:01.279
you're gonna be like, oh my gosh, it's too much.

140
00:07:01.360 --> 00:07:04.920
Do I even deserve this? Or if you're unrepentant, your

141
00:07:04.959 --> 00:07:07.560
time maybe a or you could fall into that third

142
00:07:07.600 --> 00:07:09.720
category of the repentant people who are just going to

143
00:07:09.800 --> 00:07:12.439
have to go through the pain and what their feathers off.

144
00:07:12.839 --> 00:07:15.920
Right. And I love using eagles too, because eagles are

145
00:07:15.920 --> 00:07:16.839
the bird that can sar the.

146
00:07:16.879 --> 00:07:19.720
Highest right, right, So it's good that we all need

147
00:07:19.759 --> 00:07:21.360
to have a higher perspective right now.

148
00:07:21.720 --> 00:07:24.120
Going So, I think This is definitely a time of

149
00:07:24.199 --> 00:07:27.399
revival in our country, and basically we're leading the world

150
00:07:27.399 --> 00:07:29.079
and that a lot of people are looking up for

151
00:07:29.160 --> 00:07:32.480
us to see how we go back. We're kind of

152
00:07:32.480 --> 00:07:35.120
getting back to Jesus and God that we've been kind

153
00:07:35.120 --> 00:07:37.920
of forbidden to talk about in public for a long

154
00:07:37.920 --> 00:07:39.800
time and or express and all that kind of stuff.

155
00:07:39.800 --> 00:07:41.839
But now it's kind of on the forefront of everybody.

156
00:07:41.920 --> 00:07:42.959
Is it true or revival?

157
00:07:43.360 --> 00:07:45.439
It really is. Yeah, you see it everywhere. We even

158
00:07:45.480 --> 00:07:47.439
talked about that at the park, Me and my little girlfriend,

159
00:07:47.560 --> 00:07:51.240
we talked about that it's the revival and she's kind

160
00:07:51.240 --> 00:07:53.399
of on her way to becoming a Christian. She's just

161
00:07:53.480 --> 00:07:54.920
like that, you know, some of the people you're about

162
00:07:54.920 --> 00:07:57.439
to talk about. She's not someone who's full on the

163
00:07:57.519 --> 00:07:59.839
Christian path yet, but she's feeling called to it.

164
00:08:00.160 --> 00:08:02.560
Yeah, I got this one. This is a really cool story.

165
00:08:02.839 --> 00:08:06.120
There's this reverend down in Tucson or not reverend, I'm sorry,

166
00:08:06.160 --> 00:08:08.839
he's an actual priest and he was down in Tucson.

167
00:08:08.959 --> 00:08:11.800
And I think we've all heard the stories about the

168
00:08:11.879 --> 00:08:13.959
evil people trying to do things with the Eucharists and

169
00:08:13.959 --> 00:08:16.560
all kinds of things like that. So the priests and

170
00:08:16.600 --> 00:08:19.000
the people who give out communion, they're pretty leary on,

171
00:08:19.120 --> 00:08:21.480
you know, watching people to make sure they're not going

172
00:08:21.519 --> 00:08:23.480
to do something bad with that or anything. And he

173
00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:25.959
was walking there and this guy came up. Wasn't dressed

174
00:08:26.000 --> 00:08:28.160
up nice or anything. He just kind of didn't act

175
00:08:28.160 --> 00:08:29.680
like he knew what he was doing. And he walked

176
00:08:29.720 --> 00:08:31.720
up and he had his hands in his pocket, and

177
00:08:31.759 --> 00:08:34.200
the priest kind of held the Eucharist out and the

178
00:08:34.240 --> 00:08:36.759
guy just looked at him and he goes, are you Catholic?

179
00:08:37.080 --> 00:08:39.639
And the guy nodded and said yeah, I was, and

180
00:08:39.679 --> 00:08:42.360
he said you know what you're doing, and the guy goes, no,

181
00:08:42.799 --> 00:08:45.679
He well, let's meet after Mass. So after Mass he

182
00:08:45.720 --> 00:08:48.600
went up and he said they got together and he said, so,

183
00:08:48.720 --> 00:08:50.960
what's going on And he said, I was born Catholic.

184
00:08:51.000 --> 00:08:52.399
I went through all the stuff. He goes, I haven't

185
00:08:52.440 --> 00:08:54.600
been to church, sin stuff was the kid, And he goes,

186
00:08:54.639 --> 00:08:56.840
and the only reason I'm here is because that guy

187
00:08:56.879 --> 00:08:59.559
over there. He's a Methodist, but he really likes the

188
00:08:59.600 --> 00:09:02.240
Catholic Church and he wants to convert to the Catholic Church.

189
00:09:02.240 --> 00:09:04.320
So he's the one that brought me to Master today.

190
00:09:04.679 --> 00:09:07.399
And some of the priest kind of giggled and said,

191
00:09:07.639 --> 00:09:09.639
so a method has brought a Catholic back to mass

192
00:09:09.679 --> 00:09:10.399
that's pretty cool.

193
00:09:12.080 --> 00:09:16.360
Yes, never say anything can happen, Never say that God

194
00:09:16.519 --> 00:09:19.000
don't tell God what he can do. I just think

195
00:09:19.039 --> 00:09:20.960
about I don't know if you watched the series Lost.

196
00:09:21.639 --> 00:09:23.440
Did you ever used to watch Lost? Not?

197
00:09:23.720 --> 00:09:24.639
Maybe the first season.

198
00:09:24.840 --> 00:09:26.679
Well, they got in the wheelchair, of course we all

199
00:09:26.679 --> 00:09:28.240
know that, Like they were all dead, So that's why

200
00:09:28.279 --> 00:09:30.720
he could walk all of a sudden after the plane crashed.

201
00:09:31.080 --> 00:09:33.440
But he constantly was saying, don't tell me what I

202
00:09:33.440 --> 00:09:35.799
can do, like, don't limit me, don't tell me what

203
00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:37.919
I can do. And I feel God saying that to people,

204
00:09:38.039 --> 00:09:40.240
even he's even said it to me when I doubt it,

205
00:09:40.679 --> 00:09:43.399
when I've had like this momentary lapse of faith, when

206
00:09:43.799 --> 00:09:45.240
I know what He's been telling me he's going to

207
00:09:45.320 --> 00:09:46.879
do in my life. And then there's moments I'm like,

208
00:09:47.120 --> 00:09:48.919
I don't see it happen in God like this, this

209
00:09:49.000 --> 00:09:51.399
is not going to happen, And I just hear him

210
00:09:51.519 --> 00:09:54.360
in the spirit like that, reprimand don't tell me what

211
00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:54.879
I can do.

212
00:09:55.240 --> 00:09:59.120
You know, there's a really cool he's a Catholic lecture

213
00:09:59.399 --> 00:10:01.440
something that you and look at him. You look at him,

214
00:10:01.480 --> 00:10:05.600
you would actually he's stereotypical with his dark curly hair

215
00:10:05.639 --> 00:10:06.799
and all that kind of you would think he was

216
00:10:06.840 --> 00:10:10.159
a Jewish guy and he is a convert. And he

217
00:10:10.279 --> 00:10:12.399
tells the story about, you know, he was a Jewish

218
00:10:12.440 --> 00:10:15.000
guy and he was in college and his roommate was

219
00:10:15.000 --> 00:10:18.519
a Catholic and he's kind of like that. They would

220
00:10:18.559 --> 00:10:21.519
kind of talk, you know, religion back and forth, you know,

221
00:10:21.600 --> 00:10:24.480
about his Jewish beliefs and his Catholic beliefs, and this

222
00:10:24.480 --> 00:10:26.679
guy would bring up some things. So finally he went

223
00:10:26.759 --> 00:10:32.039
up to his it was a professor for Jewish theology

224
00:10:32.120 --> 00:10:34.759
or something. So my roommate keeps saying this, this and this.

225
00:10:34.879 --> 00:10:36.639
He goes, can you tell me some way I can

226
00:10:36.679 --> 00:10:40.759
rebut that? And professor goes, well, I wish I could.

227
00:10:40.799 --> 00:10:45.600
But what he's stating to you is actually true. And

228
00:10:45.639 --> 00:10:47.519
he goes, this is all true and he said yeah,

229
00:10:47.799 --> 00:10:51.399
and he was then why are we still Jewish? Because well, exactly,

230
00:10:51.679 --> 00:10:53.960
So he goes through, you know, through ancient history and

231
00:10:54.000 --> 00:10:55.519
all of this, this is what we believe and all this

232
00:10:55.600 --> 00:10:57.559
kind of stuff. He goes, yeah, but the Bible states

233
00:10:57.679 --> 00:11:01.799
this and so the Catholics are right, he's a Catholic there, right.

234
00:11:02.080 --> 00:11:04.759
So the guy studied for a couple of years trying

235
00:11:04.759 --> 00:11:07.840
to disprove that one roommate and disprove the professor. Well,

236
00:11:07.840 --> 00:11:10.600
he couldn't do it, so he's okay, and so now

237
00:11:10.600 --> 00:11:12.519
he's one of the leading Catholic speakers out there.

238
00:11:12.840 --> 00:11:14.759
It happens all the time. And I don't know if

239
00:11:14.759 --> 00:11:17.240
you ever used to watch the show, and it may

240
00:11:17.279 --> 00:11:18.840
still be on on EWT.

241
00:11:19.000 --> 00:11:21.120
In the Journey Home, it seemed a little bit.

242
00:11:21.720 --> 00:11:24.200
It's amazing, like it's just people's conversion stories and how

243
00:11:24.240 --> 00:11:25.960
they came to the Catholic Church. A lot of them

244
00:11:25.960 --> 00:11:29.759
are some of them are preachers of other denominations, and

245
00:11:30.120 --> 00:11:32.879
is yeah, and she's like, God, don't tell him what

246
00:11:33.000 --> 00:11:35.080
he can't do. He can do anything. Like he's God.

247
00:11:35.399 --> 00:11:37.600
He can do what he wants. And I think we're

248
00:11:37.720 --> 00:11:41.200
entering a season we are going to see I mean,

249
00:11:41.240 --> 00:11:43.720
even today, me running into her in that moment, she

250
00:11:43.840 --> 00:11:45.519
was only there for twenty minutes. It's a park I

251
00:11:45.600 --> 00:11:48.799
never even knew existed until today. I mean, he can

252
00:11:48.840 --> 00:11:50.559
do whatever he wants, and I think we're going to

253
00:11:50.639 --> 00:11:54.360
see him doing mighty mighty things. And we've already seen

254
00:11:54.399 --> 00:11:57.639
it with you know, Charlie kirkan and you sent me

255
00:11:57.679 --> 00:12:00.360
that little TikTok video of the guy with the new suit.

256
00:12:00.399 --> 00:12:01.039
Talk about that.

257
00:12:01.519 --> 00:12:03.399
Yeah, there is this guy. He was pretty proud of it.

258
00:12:03.480 --> 00:12:05.240
He was on his video. He has his brand new suit,

259
00:12:05.440 --> 00:12:07.440
never bought in a new suit in his life. Now,

260
00:12:07.799 --> 00:12:11.200
let's stereotypically. He looks like your total redneck, you know,

261
00:12:11.279 --> 00:12:14.000
he'll billy kind of guy, you know, right, and would

262
00:12:14.039 --> 00:12:16.759
look at him. Yeah, he had that same talk. You

263
00:12:16.799 --> 00:12:19.360
would think if you were casting a music video for

264
00:12:19.399 --> 00:12:21.360
a country music song, you'd want this guy in there.

265
00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:22.960
Yeah, exactly.

266
00:12:23.360 --> 00:12:25.120
And he had this new suit and he was showing

267
00:12:25.159 --> 00:12:28.080
it off and everything and uh, never been to church

268
00:12:28.120 --> 00:12:30.679
or anything like that, but didn't even know who Charlie

269
00:12:30.720 --> 00:12:33.000
kirk was. But then with all the exposure and all

270
00:12:33.039 --> 00:12:35.200
the videos coming across and showing him and then people

271
00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:37.600
going against him, and then the people proving no, he's

272
00:12:37.639 --> 00:12:39.960
not what these bad people saying this is. So he

273
00:12:40.000 --> 00:12:41.639
started watching it. So he went out and buying him

274
00:12:41.679 --> 00:12:42.879
a new suit and was going to church for the

275
00:12:42.960 --> 00:12:43.600
very first time.

276
00:12:44.000 --> 00:12:46.039
Right, I mean, he just I showed my friend that

277
00:12:46.120 --> 00:12:48.120
and she started crying. I mean he was like, I

278
00:12:48.159 --> 00:12:50.720
never knew who Charlie Kirk was. I've never been to church,

279
00:12:50.759 --> 00:12:53.720
and i never read the Bible, but I'm about to start.

280
00:12:54.279 --> 00:12:55.919
I mean, that was just amazing.

281
00:12:56.399 --> 00:12:58.559
So yeah, so this is just to be I believe

282
00:12:58.559 --> 00:12:59.440
it's just the beginning.

283
00:12:59.480 --> 00:13:02.879
It's just it's just the beginning. But I love how

284
00:13:03.039 --> 00:13:04.559
you know, some of the prophets have said that we're

285
00:13:04.600 --> 00:13:08.039
not entering into a revival. We're there. It's it's a revival.

286
00:13:08.240 --> 00:13:12.600
And someone said even that baptisms and Bible purchases even

287
00:13:12.639 --> 00:13:15.600
in Europe are up like seventy percent something like that.

288
00:13:16.000 --> 00:13:19.840
Yeah, it's nuts. And oddly enough, even though you wouldn't

289
00:13:19.840 --> 00:13:22.039
think of if you watch just the mainstream what they

290
00:13:22.039 --> 00:13:24.399
call legacy media, you wouldn't know it. But for the

291
00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:27.879
last four years, especially with Generation Z, the youngers one,

292
00:13:28.039 --> 00:13:30.480
the Catholic Church has actually been growing out of all

293
00:13:31.120 --> 00:13:34.200
you know, the strict Catholics, you know they don't, right,

294
00:13:34.320 --> 00:13:36.720
They've been growing while everybody else has either been stagnant

295
00:13:36.799 --> 00:13:37.799
or declining a little bit.

296
00:13:38.240 --> 00:13:41.440
Absolutely, And I've seen that. You know, I think God's efficient.

297
00:13:41.440 --> 00:13:43.440
I've always said God's efficient, and I knew he got

298
00:13:43.440 --> 00:13:45.840
me this job at the YMCA as a temporary thing,

299
00:13:46.000 --> 00:13:48.519
just to be something positive, to kind of keep my

300
00:13:48.559 --> 00:13:50.639
mind focused, to give me a little something to do

301
00:13:50.720 --> 00:13:52.879
while I'm kind of going through this big transition and

302
00:13:53.000 --> 00:13:56.320
all that. But one of the cool things is I

303
00:13:56.440 --> 00:13:59.960
work with mainly twenty something year old guys. Hardly anyone

304
00:14:00.080 --> 00:14:03.519
to work there. It's mainly twenty year old college kid

305
00:14:03.759 --> 00:14:07.519
meant guys. And what I've seen, we always ended up

306
00:14:07.559 --> 00:14:12.039
talking about God. I'm absolutely blown away by their spiritual

307
00:14:12.080 --> 00:14:16.600
and emotional maturity, their empathy. They've just been good. There's

308
00:14:16.639 --> 00:14:18.840
been days I've gone in. There's one day I went

309
00:14:18.840 --> 00:14:21.480
in hadn't slept. I don't think I've ever been so

310
00:14:21.519 --> 00:14:23.840
angry in my entire life. I found out about something

311
00:14:23.879 --> 00:14:26.080
that made me so angry. I didn't sleep. I couldn't

312
00:14:26.120 --> 00:14:28.080
even cry. I was so angry so that I didn't

313
00:14:28.080 --> 00:14:30.480
start crying till the morning. So I was up all night.

314
00:14:30.559 --> 00:14:32.080
Then I cried all morning, and then I had to

315
00:14:32.159 --> 00:14:35.559
go to work. And I had the best conversation with

316
00:14:35.639 --> 00:14:39.559
this with one of them, who basically it was interesting.

317
00:14:39.639 --> 00:14:42.120
He was like, we know that where the generation that

318
00:14:42.159 --> 00:14:44.360
has to turn things around. We're aware of that. Like

319
00:14:44.440 --> 00:14:48.399
we we know, we're an apostasy, and he was saying,

320
00:14:48.480 --> 00:14:50.960
you know, a lot of the twenty something girls were

321
00:14:50.960 --> 00:14:54.360
having trouble finding So it's almost like it's flipped because

322
00:14:54.399 --> 00:14:58.120
back in you know, thirty eight years ago, for traditionally,

323
00:14:58.720 --> 00:15:01.240
maybe men have been this town and women have been

324
00:15:01.279 --> 00:15:03.399
more you know, you find more women that want to

325
00:15:03.399 --> 00:15:05.440
go to church and get their husbands in line basically,

326
00:15:05.480 --> 00:15:08.559
But it's kind of flipped where there I see all

327
00:15:08.600 --> 00:15:11.919
these young guys that are so devout and they're having

328
00:15:11.919 --> 00:15:14.960
a hard time finding girls that are in line with them.

329
00:15:15.519 --> 00:15:18.480
And that's just an interesting situation that's going on in

330
00:15:18.480 --> 00:15:19.279
the world right now.

331
00:15:19.600 --> 00:15:22.399
I think it has to do a lot with popular

332
00:15:22.440 --> 00:15:24.720
culture trying to flip the man. You know, for they

333
00:15:24.720 --> 00:15:27.279
didn't want they didn't want these men to be mocho men,

334
00:15:27.360 --> 00:15:29.519
and they didn't want tough guys. They wanted these sensitive

335
00:15:29.559 --> 00:15:31.720
guys and all this kind of stuff which was going

336
00:15:31.759 --> 00:15:34.480
against human nature. Let's be honest, you know, you could

337
00:15:34.960 --> 00:15:36.559
it's kind of like they were trying to tame them

338
00:15:36.559 --> 00:15:38.799
in and all this kind of stuff. Well, after a

339
00:15:38.799 --> 00:15:40.559
while they kind of tamed them in, but instead of

340
00:15:40.840 --> 00:15:42.799
now they are mocho men. And all that kind of

341
00:15:42.799 --> 00:15:44.480
stuff because they're fighting for Christ.

342
00:15:44.639 --> 00:15:47.919
Exactly, and they're doing it in a meek, in a

343
00:15:47.919 --> 00:15:50.720
meek and humble way. I've been very blessed to work

344
00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:53.320
with the guys I work with, and yeah, and it's

345
00:15:53.360 --> 00:15:56.120
just and then you know another I knew, I knew

346
00:15:56.200 --> 00:15:58.720
other job opportunities will come to me. God's a good God,

347
00:15:58.840 --> 00:16:00.240
and I knew, like he was like, I'm want to

348
00:16:00.240 --> 00:16:01.600
bring you the right job. When you need a full

349
00:16:01.639 --> 00:16:03.919
time job, I'll show you. And so he did kind

350
00:16:03.960 --> 00:16:07.600
of open up some door paths through the YMCA just

351
00:16:08.039 --> 00:16:10.519
from the people I met that may end up turning

352
00:16:10.600 --> 00:16:12.840
into a great full time job. But yeah, it's been

353
00:16:12.840 --> 00:16:15.720
an interesting week for sure. For sure.

354
00:16:16.120 --> 00:16:18.120
Yeah, because I mean, you were frustrating, so I wasn't

355
00:16:18.120 --> 00:16:20.039
going to say anything to you know, lots of times

356
00:16:20.679 --> 00:16:22.919
it kind of drives me nuts when people they think

357
00:16:22.960 --> 00:16:25.799
they have to say something, and to me, lots of times,

358
00:16:26.120 --> 00:16:28.399
just don't say anything. Let them vent, let them cry,

359
00:16:28.519 --> 00:16:30.919
let them, you know, do whatever they want. Just let

360
00:16:30.960 --> 00:16:32.440
them know that as long as you're there for and

361
00:16:32.480 --> 00:16:35.200
that's more important than I think. Too many people try

362
00:16:35.200 --> 00:16:37.960
and solve people's problems. I mean, it's kind of like,

363
00:16:38.320 --> 00:16:40.679
you don't know everything that's going on there, so you

364
00:16:40.679 --> 00:16:42.399
can give a little bit of advice, but to try

365
00:16:42.440 --> 00:16:45.399
and solve their problem. Now you're butting in, and that's

366
00:16:45.840 --> 00:16:46.919
that's God's job anyway.

367
00:16:47.399 --> 00:16:49.759
Yeah, and you were perfect. You just said you okay,

368
00:16:49.960 --> 00:16:51.159
and you know, you sent me a text and you

369
00:16:51.159 --> 00:16:53.639
were like you okay, and that is perfect. And in

370
00:16:53.679 --> 00:16:56.120
all fairness, like the guys at the YMCA, they weren't

371
00:16:56.120 --> 00:16:58.440
trying to solve my problem. They were very I'm not

372
00:16:58.559 --> 00:17:02.080
used to guys being empathetic, so it was interesting that

373
00:17:02.480 --> 00:17:04.559
he was just so empathetic. He just said, don't be

374
00:17:04.599 --> 00:17:06.680
hard on yourself. He was like, you know what happens

375
00:17:07.039 --> 00:17:10.000
a lot of times we don't see He said, when

376
00:17:10.039 --> 00:17:11.799
you love people, you see the best in people. A

377
00:17:11.799 --> 00:17:13.559
lot of times you don't see their faults. And he goes,

378
00:17:13.559 --> 00:17:15.759
that's completely normal, and don't be hard on yourself. And

379
00:17:15.759 --> 00:17:18.319
he was just so kind and he wasn't trying to

380
00:17:18.319 --> 00:17:20.799
solve my problem. He was just like he was just

381
00:17:20.799 --> 00:17:22.200
being kind and empathetic.

382
00:17:22.519 --> 00:17:24.599
So that was cool, right, And you think about God

383
00:17:25.000 --> 00:17:27.599
because I know you honestly believe that God was pointing

384
00:17:27.640 --> 00:17:30.680
towards YMCA. You had a couple job offers, but they

385
00:17:30.720 --> 00:17:32.839
really weren't anything that you were interested in. But you

386
00:17:32.839 --> 00:17:33.279
were right.

387
00:17:33.319 --> 00:17:35.039
I got three job offers in the same day.

388
00:17:35.119 --> 00:17:38.200
Yeah, you didn't really care. But then you took my

389
00:17:38.240 --> 00:17:40.119
AMCA job and you thought, Okay, well why am I?

390
00:17:40.160 --> 00:17:41.960
I don't know why I'm taking this, but I'm taking it.

391
00:17:42.640 --> 00:17:45.079
And then you started working there and God put you

392
00:17:45.079 --> 00:17:47.319
in touch with somebody who had you look for a

393
00:17:47.400 --> 00:17:50.240
job in a direction you weren't even going before. And

394
00:17:50.279 --> 00:17:53.200
it's actually r Yeah, and I knew.

395
00:17:53.240 --> 00:17:54.759
He said, it's the people that you're going to meet,

396
00:17:54.799 --> 00:17:56.599
he goes, don't worry about the money. It's the people

397
00:17:56.640 --> 00:17:59.240
you're going to meet that I'm doing something. And a

398
00:17:59.240 --> 00:18:01.880
lot of what were to learn and what I've been

399
00:18:02.200 --> 00:18:05.440
learning is to trust God. And this is very hard.

400
00:18:05.839 --> 00:18:09.720
It's huge. Trust God and be obedient even when things

401
00:18:09.759 --> 00:18:12.000
don't look like you know, it doesn't look like the

402
00:18:12.000 --> 00:18:13.839
best option because it's not the most money, or you

403
00:18:13.839 --> 00:18:15.359
don't see how it's going to work out, but you've

404
00:18:15.400 --> 00:18:17.480
got to trust him. He can do anything. He's God.

405
00:18:18.000 --> 00:18:21.000
He can you know if he can turn. Zachary King,

406
00:18:21.519 --> 00:18:24.920
from a thirty year high priest in the Satanic Church

407
00:18:25.000 --> 00:18:29.240
doing abortions and child pornography to the most about Catholic

408
00:18:29.279 --> 00:18:33.119
with two ministries to marry. He can do anything. He's God,

409
00:18:33.319 --> 00:18:36.160
so we just need to trust him. And I've seen

410
00:18:36.160 --> 00:18:40.359
that in my own life, and it's okay to have

411
00:18:40.839 --> 00:18:43.079
moments of doubt like that night I did say. I

412
00:18:43.119 --> 00:18:44.640
was like, you need to show up for me today.

413
00:18:44.680 --> 00:18:46.880
I told him that because I was so angry that

414
00:18:46.960 --> 00:18:50.599
if I had had a flamethrower. I'll say this, I

415
00:18:50.640 --> 00:18:52.240
don't know if you know what a flamethrower is. Do

416
00:18:52.240 --> 00:18:54.599
you know what a flamethrower is? Jeff, Oh, yeah, because

417
00:18:54.640 --> 00:18:56.279
I mean Once upon a Time in Hollywood's one of

418
00:18:56.319 --> 00:18:58.680
my favorite movies. But if I even had a flamethrower,

419
00:18:59.039 --> 00:19:00.759
let's just say there's a certain house that would no

420
00:19:00.799 --> 00:19:03.799
longer be standing. It would be it'd been torched. And

421
00:19:03.839 --> 00:19:07.000
there's nothing less than that that would have done it justice.

422
00:19:07.039 --> 00:19:08.880
The only justice I could think of is if I

423
00:19:08.920 --> 00:19:11.359
had a flamethrower right now, that house would be it'd

424
00:19:11.400 --> 00:19:15.880
be it'd be on fire. But sometimes you just have

425
00:19:15.920 --> 00:19:18.279
to tell God, Hey, I said, you need to show

426
00:19:18.319 --> 00:19:20.839
up for me today because I'm really angry, and this

427
00:19:21.000 --> 00:19:23.480
is really a lot of injustice that I've had to

428
00:19:23.519 --> 00:19:26.640
deal with. But then he did show up. He always does.

429
00:19:26.759 --> 00:19:29.119
He showed up in the form of another man. Came

430
00:19:29.160 --> 00:19:30.960
up to me. He started talking to me about jobs,

431
00:19:31.400 --> 00:19:33.039
and it was all the kind of jobs that I

432
00:19:33.039 --> 00:19:36.200
would do that I had the background in. And then

433
00:19:36.240 --> 00:19:39.079
the other guy was empathetic and I almost felt healed

434
00:19:39.119 --> 00:19:41.480
after our conversation. It was really weird. It was like

435
00:19:41.559 --> 00:19:44.440
we had a twenty or thirty minute deep conversation which

436
00:19:44.519 --> 00:19:47.920
was mainly him just being empathetic, and I left feeling healed.

437
00:19:48.079 --> 00:19:50.720
And even a couple of friends called me that night

438
00:19:50.759 --> 00:19:53.319
and they were like girlfriends and they were like called

439
00:19:53.359 --> 00:19:54.640
that They're like, how are you doing. I'm like, oh,

440
00:19:54.640 --> 00:19:56.839
I'm good, and they're like, I can't believe you sounds

441
00:19:56.839 --> 00:19:59.359
so good. They were like, I wasn't expecting you to

442
00:19:59.400 --> 00:20:01.920
sound so good, and I'm like, yeah, I'm fine, I'm good.

443
00:20:03.200 --> 00:20:04.799
They were just checking in on you. Make sure you

444
00:20:04.880 --> 00:20:07.119
run on craigs like little Smith looking at flame floors.

445
00:20:07.400 --> 00:20:10.240
Yeah, Thomas purchased a flame thrower. No doubt, that's what

446
00:20:10.279 --> 00:20:13.000
God can do. He can turn things around in an instant.

447
00:20:13.319 --> 00:20:15.960
He can create something out of nothing. He can part

448
00:20:16.000 --> 00:20:18.359
the Red Sea. I truly believe we're going to see

449
00:20:18.400 --> 00:20:22.519
miracles here shortly like now that go above and beyond

450
00:20:22.519 --> 00:20:25.079
even what you saw that you've seen in the biblical tomes.

451
00:20:25.319 --> 00:20:28.920
You know that's on there. Get Do you think obedience

452
00:20:28.960 --> 00:20:30.400
and trust go hand in hand or do you think

453
00:20:30.440 --> 00:20:33.319
you can trust and still waver on the obedience part?

454
00:20:33.680 --> 00:20:36.079
What I mean is like, I know there's been times

455
00:20:36.079 --> 00:20:38.200
in my life when it's saying, Okay, God, I trust you.

456
00:20:38.319 --> 00:20:40.640
I don't understand it, this makes no sense, but I

457
00:20:40.680 --> 00:20:41.960
trust that you're going to get me out of this.

458
00:20:42.279 --> 00:20:45.960
I got to do what. I don't know about that.

459
00:20:46.920 --> 00:20:48.799
I think they do go hand in hand, and I

460
00:20:48.799 --> 00:20:52.519
think it, Yeah, I think your level of trust leads

461
00:20:52.519 --> 00:20:55.359
into obedience because if you really trusted him, if you

462
00:20:55.519 --> 00:20:57.359
really really trusted him, you would do it.

463
00:20:57.720 --> 00:21:00.799
I agree, But that's I guess that guess. Obedience is

464
00:21:00.839 --> 00:21:04.240
basically it's your marker on how much you really do trust.

465
00:21:04.680 --> 00:21:07.759
Right, And you know, someone say today you know faith

466
00:21:07.839 --> 00:21:09.960
is believing in what you can't see. I mean that

467
00:21:10.079 --> 00:21:13.279
is faith. You got to believe in something looks awful,

468
00:21:13.359 --> 00:21:16.079
it looks like it could never happen, It looks so

469
00:21:16.079 --> 00:21:17.559
so horrible that it makes you want to take a

470
00:21:17.599 --> 00:21:21.240
flame thrower to it, but you don't know what God's

471
00:21:21.279 --> 00:21:23.680
going to do with it. So that is faith because

472
00:21:24.079 --> 00:21:24.559
you know, and I.

473
00:21:24.599 --> 00:21:28.079
Just realized, the best best example for trust and obedience

474
00:21:28.119 --> 00:21:31.799
in the Bible probably Jonah, you know, you think about it.

475
00:21:31.839 --> 00:21:34.160
And he believed in God. He talked to God. They

476
00:21:34.160 --> 00:21:37.640
had conversations and God said you're going here, and he said, okay,

477
00:21:37.920 --> 00:21:41.640
no I'm not. I'm out of here. Man like you.

478
00:21:41.759 --> 00:21:43.200
I mean, this guy had a lot more. He was

479
00:21:43.200 --> 00:21:44.799
a lot closer to God than I ever was.

480
00:21:45.319 --> 00:21:48.440
Yeah, and you can choose to be disobedient, and then

481
00:21:48.720 --> 00:21:51.160
you get yourself in a in a belly of a well,

482
00:21:51.200 --> 00:21:53.640
it gets yourself in a bad situation when you're disobedient.

483
00:21:54.039 --> 00:21:56.160
I think that that story is one of my favorite

484
00:21:56.160 --> 00:21:59.200
in the Bible just because there's so much, so much

485
00:21:59.359 --> 00:22:02.359
context under lying it. You know, it's kind of like, okay, yeah,

486
00:22:02.400 --> 00:22:04.680
I got out there in any books. And then the

487
00:22:04.839 --> 00:22:07.440
ship's under a torment about the sink, and then he's

488
00:22:07.440 --> 00:22:09.400
honest and he says, well, this is my fault, and

489
00:22:09.440 --> 00:22:11.480
the guy say okay, thanks and throw them overboard.

490
00:22:13.240 --> 00:22:17.000
It's hilarious. I mean, people. Just if you think God

491
00:22:17.079 --> 00:22:19.119
is boring, you really haven't read the Bible because the

492
00:22:19.119 --> 00:22:22.160
bibble's not boring. I mean there's a lot of books

493
00:22:22.160 --> 00:22:25.519
that are just their stories like that, like you you

494
00:22:25.559 --> 00:22:29.240
can't believe they're even true, like if they're stranger than fiction,

495
00:22:29.440 --> 00:22:31.720
Like how could that have really happened? But it did?

496
00:22:32.319 --> 00:22:35.640
Yeah, that's well, no will whatever swallow a guy? Well,

497
00:22:35.720 --> 00:22:38.519
just off of Massachusetts two years ago, there were some

498
00:22:38.559 --> 00:22:41.079
scuba divers and they were around some of those blue whales, right,

499
00:22:41.200 --> 00:22:43.480
and they were filming them with these blue mails. Everybody

500
00:22:43.599 --> 00:22:45.440
was freaked out, and blue whale did swallow a guy

501
00:22:45.440 --> 00:22:47.759
a whole shot, right, brought him up to the surface

502
00:22:47.759 --> 00:22:50.160
and spin him out. They said, well there you kind

503
00:22:50.200 --> 00:22:51.039
of there's your proof.

504
00:22:51.400 --> 00:22:56.000
That's right. I mean, anything can happen. Anything can happen.

505
00:22:56.640 --> 00:22:59.480
Oh man. So we talked about Rasha Sean and that's

506
00:22:59.480 --> 00:23:01.720
the new year. Then you keep talking about ten ten,

507
00:23:01.799 --> 00:23:03.720
what exactly is going to happen there on the Jewish calendar?

508
00:23:04.079 --> 00:23:07.799
So that is Yam Kapoor and that is when. Okay,

509
00:23:07.799 --> 00:23:10.640
So from now until y'am Kapoor is your chance to

510
00:23:10.680 --> 00:23:13.400
repent and to do good works and to get closer

511
00:23:13.440 --> 00:23:16.400
to God, and that's gonna help your fate. So on

512
00:23:16.599 --> 00:23:20.720
Yam Kipoor, your fate's sealed, your judgments sealed. God has

513
00:23:20.759 --> 00:23:23.240
looked at your sin, has looked at your good works

514
00:23:23.240 --> 00:23:26.359
and weighed you accordingly, and you're gonna pay for your sin.

515
00:23:26.440 --> 00:23:29.400
You're gonna, you're gonna, you're gonna reap what you sow.

516
00:23:29.920 --> 00:23:32.680
So if you've sown good things, you're gonna have some

517
00:23:32.759 --> 00:23:35.680
blessings and it's all according to what you've sown. So

518
00:23:36.359 --> 00:23:39.920
you will reap what you sow. And you know, even

519
00:23:39.920 --> 00:23:41.640
if you're a Christian, I don't think you can refute

520
00:23:41.640 --> 00:23:44.079
that you reap what you sew. Right there is and

521
00:23:44.240 --> 00:23:47.240
ol God's justice. So yeah, Christ did come to save

522
00:23:47.319 --> 00:23:49.119
us all, and he did give us a new and

523
00:23:49.240 --> 00:23:52.839
eternal covenant. He fulfilled the scriptures, he fulfilled the covenant,

524
00:23:52.920 --> 00:23:54.759
he fulfilled. He said, I didn't come to change the law,

525
00:23:54.839 --> 00:23:57.160
fulfill the law. But you still reap what you sew.

526
00:23:57.200 --> 00:23:59.200
That's just kind of a universal law of God. So

527
00:23:59.319 --> 00:24:01.920
right now, I just encourage people to repent and to

528
00:24:01.960 --> 00:24:05.160
sew good seeds. And then on Kapoor, your fight's going

529
00:24:05.200 --> 00:24:07.640
to be sealed, and you're gonna get your gesture rewards.

530
00:24:08.759 --> 00:24:10.920
You know, I have no trouble talking about the Jewish people,

531
00:24:10.960 --> 00:24:13.000
with the Jewish religion and all that. I was lucky

532
00:24:13.200 --> 00:24:15.039
because you know, I heard that you hear about now

533
00:24:15.079 --> 00:24:19.720
like I don't. I honestly cannot fathom how people are prejudiced,

534
00:24:19.960 --> 00:24:21.880
you know, or anything like that against the Jewish people.

535
00:24:21.920 --> 00:24:23.880
Because when I was like first grade, I moved into

536
00:24:24.079 --> 00:24:26.519
my parents moved in that neighborhood that I grew up

537
00:24:26.559 --> 00:24:28.799
as in first grade, and in that in that block

538
00:24:28.880 --> 00:24:30.400
that I lived in, just a couple of houses down

539
00:24:30.559 --> 00:24:33.400
was a Jewish family and my best friend, Gotty Greenstein,

540
00:24:34.720 --> 00:24:37.880
and a couple of houses away were another one who

541
00:24:37.920 --> 00:24:39.960
our best friends, Tad Ritter, and so we were the

542
00:24:40.000 --> 00:24:41.759
only three boys. So we were best friends, you know,

543
00:24:41.920 --> 00:24:45.680
all through throughout elementary school, and we didn't really understand

544
00:24:45.720 --> 00:24:48.319
religion or anything, but we knew that Jews were different

545
00:24:48.359 --> 00:24:52.160
than Christians. I was Catholic, Tad was charismatic, and got

546
00:24:52.160 --> 00:24:55.960
he was Jewish. And me and Tad were both as

547
00:24:55.960 --> 00:24:59.279
blonde as blonde could be, and god he looked stereotypical Jewish.

548
00:24:59.359 --> 00:25:02.400
So that's three of us ran around the neighborhood.

549
00:25:01.960 --> 00:25:03.400
Yeah, diverse little group.

550
00:25:03.640 --> 00:25:05.400
Well then we were getting out of elementary school, so

551
00:25:05.440 --> 00:25:08.519
this would have been the late seventies, I'm guessing probably

552
00:25:08.640 --> 00:25:11.680
late seventies. And back then they had a call Israel

553
00:25:11.720 --> 00:25:14.200
did to Jewish to come back and live in the

554
00:25:14.200 --> 00:25:16.640
homeland over in Israel. So his family picked up and

555
00:25:16.880 --> 00:25:20.359
moved back to Israel. Okay, and so I mean it's

556
00:25:20.559 --> 00:25:24.960
easier now, but kind of kept his grand virons. His

557
00:25:25.000 --> 00:25:28.000
grandparents lived out here still in Colorado, So about every

558
00:25:28.000 --> 00:25:29.920
five years he'd come back and we'd kind of touch

559
00:25:30.000 --> 00:25:31.359
base and all that kind of stuff. And then, of

560
00:25:31.400 --> 00:25:33.440
course you get older and you kind of lose track,

561
00:25:33.519 --> 00:25:36.519
but then Facebook comes in, so now you're stay able

562
00:25:36.519 --> 00:25:39.480
to right. But since we've known him, you know, basically

563
00:25:39.559 --> 00:25:41.839
since first grade, even though we're not close or anything,

564
00:25:43.039 --> 00:25:47.599
I have absolutely no understanding at all how people could

565
00:25:47.640 --> 00:25:48.559
not like Jewish people.

566
00:25:48.880 --> 00:25:52.279
Yeah, they're I mean, I've never met a main nasty

567
00:25:52.359 --> 00:25:57.839
Jewish person. They're just generally nice, easy going people. How

568
00:25:57.839 --> 00:25:59.920
could anybody not like a true Christian. I think there's

569
00:26:00.079 --> 00:26:03.079
some not true Christians that give real Christians a bad name.

570
00:26:03.119 --> 00:26:05.480
But real Christian is going to be meek and humble

571
00:26:05.480 --> 00:26:08.000
and kind as well, so right, and there's a lot

572
00:26:08.000 --> 00:26:10.599
of people that don't like Christians, so that's just the devil,

573
00:26:10.680 --> 00:26:12.680
that's just the that's just demons.

574
00:26:12.920 --> 00:26:15.559
Yeah, it was fun. I mean, you know, me and

575
00:26:15.599 --> 00:26:17.599
Tad we'd go and I don't think it was probably

576
00:26:17.799 --> 00:26:22.079
the major holidays like Russashana or Yankaper or anything, but

577
00:26:22.119 --> 00:26:24.079
when they would have like a holiday, they'd invite us

578
00:26:24.119 --> 00:26:26.200
to come over and they'd put the little thing on

579
00:26:26.200 --> 00:26:27.880
her head and we'd get a little sip of wines.

580
00:26:27.920 --> 00:26:28.839
We thought that was good, you know.

581
00:26:28.880 --> 00:26:30.559
We were like, yeah, that's cool.

582
00:26:30.720 --> 00:26:32.519
And then she I don't know what. I don't know

583
00:26:32.559 --> 00:26:34.480
what these things were, but they were like the best

584
00:26:34.519 --> 00:26:37.359
sofa pis. I could describe them, but they were so good.

585
00:26:37.880 --> 00:26:41.279
That's cool. So yeah, you know, I've always wanted I'm

586
00:26:41.279 --> 00:26:43.799
gonna do it this year, Jeff, I've always wanted to

587
00:26:43.799 --> 00:26:47.559
have a Honka party. And I don't know, well because

588
00:26:47.599 --> 00:26:50.119
on the holiday, like I've talked about, that's my favorite movie.

589
00:26:50.160 --> 00:26:53.319
And she had a honicup party and Jack Blackshaws and

590
00:26:53.359 --> 00:26:55.680
he's like, what did you become? Did you convert become Jewish?

591
00:26:55.720 --> 00:26:57.880
Since all I saw you? And she's like, no, you know,

592
00:26:57.920 --> 00:27:01.240
my neighbor. He invited a Preece friends over its Hanakah

593
00:27:01.519 --> 00:27:03.920
and I actually just ordered the painting of that scene

594
00:27:03.920 --> 00:27:07.000
where they're all sitting around the table having a Hanka party,

595
00:27:07.000 --> 00:27:08.440
and I'm going to put it in my dining room.

596
00:27:08.519 --> 00:27:11.079
So yeah, this year, I'm having a honka party.

597
00:27:11.279 --> 00:27:14.039
Okay, in Tendensee. We'll give you directions.

598
00:27:14.759 --> 00:27:17.599
Yes, you should come. I've got an extra bedroom. You should.

599
00:27:17.640 --> 00:27:19.599
You want to come to my honkup party.

600
00:27:19.599 --> 00:27:24.039
You're invited, Jeff, Okay, totally fine. Haven't celebrated Honkikah since,

601
00:27:24.079 --> 00:27:26.680
like I said, since Gotty left when went forth.

602
00:27:26.160 --> 00:27:28.240
Grade fon Gotty and then buy him too.

603
00:27:29.720 --> 00:27:31.599
Yeah, And the reason he's on the top of my mind,

604
00:27:31.599 --> 00:27:33.200
it was just his birthday a couple of days ago,

605
00:27:33.400 --> 00:27:35.519
so I talked to him and you know, not talk

606
00:27:35.599 --> 00:27:39.559
to him, but yeah, we talked anymore. If you're communicating online,

607
00:27:39.599 --> 00:27:43.960
you're talking right right right, So yeah, it's kind of

608
00:27:44.400 --> 00:27:46.240
kind of keeps me up and down what's going on

609
00:27:46.319 --> 00:27:48.880
over there and everything, and you know, it's a different world.

610
00:27:49.359 --> 00:27:52.319
Often invite my Melrose friends to the party. And how

611
00:27:52.359 --> 00:27:54.440
weird is this? There are no coincidences. So one of

612
00:27:54.440 --> 00:27:56.160
the ladies that lives next door to me that we

613
00:27:56.640 --> 00:27:58.400
have gotten to kind of talk to more than the

614
00:27:58.440 --> 00:28:00.240
other people because she has a dog and we'll welcome

615
00:28:00.279 --> 00:28:04.000
together sometimes. And she's a vocal teacher to some very

616
00:28:04.000 --> 00:28:06.680
famous people. And I said, oh, you know, my friend

617
00:28:06.680 --> 00:28:09.039
Amber maug is a vocal teacher. She's like, I know Amber,

618
00:28:09.400 --> 00:28:12.119
And how crazy is this Amber? I thah still lived

619
00:28:12.160 --> 00:28:14.559
in Nashville. She used to work at Disney. She was

620
00:28:14.559 --> 00:28:16.960
a singer. She was a good friend of mine, sang

621
00:28:17.039 --> 00:28:20.279
some of my demos. We worked in the apartment business together.

622
00:28:20.720 --> 00:28:23.359
Now she lived I found out today. How it's weird

623
00:28:23.440 --> 00:28:26.200
enough that this lady knows her but she lives in Denver.

624
00:28:26.400 --> 00:28:29.599
She lives in Denver. Oh really Yeah, she just moved

625
00:28:29.599 --> 00:28:32.519
there and like I guess like maybe a few years ago.

626
00:28:32.640 --> 00:28:35.119
So she's lived there a few years now, and she

627
00:28:35.160 --> 00:28:36.880
should come to Denver and come see you in Amber.

628
00:28:37.039 --> 00:28:38.799
There you go, and then we'll go back with you

629
00:28:38.799 --> 00:28:39.680
to your Honakah party.

630
00:28:39.920 --> 00:28:41.240
There you go. We got a plan.

631
00:28:42.119 --> 00:28:45.359
People are going, how did they go from revival to

632
00:28:45.680 --> 00:28:49.200
honakup parties? Well, and it's kind of like, well, if

633
00:28:49.240 --> 00:28:52.640
you think about it, the revival basically we want you

634
00:28:52.720 --> 00:28:55.880
to be want you to embrace God, you know, and

635
00:28:56.200 --> 00:28:58.440
of course we embrace Jesus. But we're not going to

636
00:28:58.519 --> 00:29:01.200
throw our Jewish friends and to the wolves and say,

637
00:29:01.240 --> 00:29:02.839
well we don't like you kid, you don't like Jesus.

638
00:29:02.839 --> 00:29:04.799
You know, God loves everybody.

639
00:29:04.559 --> 00:29:06.720
Right, we all serve the same God, that's for sure.

640
00:29:07.200 --> 00:29:10.920
So and basically I think this revival because man, in

641
00:29:10.960 --> 00:29:14.240
the last few years, well let's play probably about thirty

642
00:29:14.279 --> 00:29:16.880
years to be able to profess your love of God

643
00:29:16.920 --> 00:29:19.200
and Jesus in public. It was just shot down and

644
00:29:19.240 --> 00:29:22.599
looked down and frowned upon, and it was like and

645
00:29:22.680 --> 00:29:25.599
now it's just everybody's just not everybody, but you know

646
00:29:25.640 --> 00:29:28.359
what I mean. You hear constantly people who wouldn't come

647
00:29:28.359 --> 00:29:30.359
out before. Like we talked about the guy in his

648
00:29:30.400 --> 00:29:32.960
suit and the guy going to church, and you see

649
00:29:32.960 --> 00:29:35.640
a lot more athletes and a lot more singers and

650
00:29:35.680 --> 00:29:38.240
that kind of stuff who were actually professing their love

651
00:29:38.279 --> 00:29:40.599
of God in Jesus. And that's what the revival is about.

652
00:29:40.599 --> 00:29:42.200
It's about love, right.

653
00:29:42.000 --> 00:29:44.079
And I do think it's bringing all Christians together because

654
00:29:44.079 --> 00:29:48.119
I've heard several people lately and two Jewish people and

655
00:29:48.160 --> 00:29:51.119
then some other people from other Christian denominations. They've all

656
00:29:51.200 --> 00:29:53.279
kind of had the same comment when up so walm Catholic,

657
00:29:53.319 --> 00:29:56.319
but they're like, well, who cares you? We all have

658
00:29:56.440 --> 00:29:58.680
faith and it's just so hard. I mean, we're all

659
00:29:58.680 --> 00:30:01.119
so excited to find anybody who has faith and believes

660
00:30:01.119 --> 00:30:03.960
in God anymore. That's I think that's where we're all

661
00:30:04.079 --> 00:30:05.319
kind of at exactly.

662
00:30:05.599 --> 00:30:07.680
And if any of you actually following me on like

663
00:30:07.759 --> 00:30:11.160
LinkedIn or Facebook, you'll notice why are they talking about this? Well,

664
00:30:11.200 --> 00:30:13.960
we put a thing out as I'm not saying how

665
00:30:13.960 --> 00:30:16.599
we got to the subject or anything about why why

666
00:30:17.400 --> 00:30:21.799
why does how do bad people get good things? That

667
00:30:21.839 --> 00:30:22.599
makes no sense?

668
00:30:23.359 --> 00:30:26.079
Why why do bad things happen to good people? Yeah?

669
00:30:26.119 --> 00:30:27.920
Why do bad things happen to good people? And why

670
00:30:27.920 --> 00:30:30.680
do bad people get good things? So we put I

671
00:30:30.759 --> 00:30:32.960
posted a couple of things for people to, uh so

672
00:30:33.279 --> 00:30:36.720
what their thoughts were. We got some Bible Bible verses

673
00:30:36.759 --> 00:30:39.160
that were setting a couple of funny stories. So we're

674
00:30:39.160 --> 00:30:40.880
just collecting those and then so we'll talk those on

675
00:30:40.920 --> 00:30:42.400
our next show. And then we have a really coolcial

676
00:30:42.440 --> 00:30:43.640
