1 00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:05,160 Speaker 1: Okay, man, bro, thank you for being here, Thanks for 2 00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:07,520 Speaker 1: having me making the drive at. 3 00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:10,680 Speaker 2: The long two hours and fifteen minutes. It's supposed to 4 00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:13,200 Speaker 2: be two forty five. But God hasn't sanctified my speed 5 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:17,000 Speaker 2: limit driving yet. Okay, He's working on me. Okay, obeying 6 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:18,759 Speaker 2: all the laws and ordinance of man. 7 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:21,720 Speaker 1: I understand that's one of the last things to be 8 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:26,840 Speaker 1: sactified in. So I was telling my son Lincoln, who's eleven, 9 00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:30,800 Speaker 1: and I was like, you know my buddy Heath Evans, Yes, sir, 10 00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:36,360 Speaker 1: you know he's coming for the podcast today. He is, Yeah, 11 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:40,840 Speaker 1: you know, he's Super Bowl winner, right. He goes who 12 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:43,320 Speaker 1: did he play for? I was like, well, Patriots for one, 13 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 1: and he goes, Daddy, you think he has Tom Brady's 14 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:50,279 Speaker 1: cell phone number. I was like, that's that's where your 15 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:51,239 Speaker 1: mind's going like that. 16 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 2: I'm just God's he's affectionate towards Tom Brady and got 17 00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 2: some YouTuber or something, you know. To me, you know, 18 00:00:58,600 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 2: he's got a real hero. 19 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's this is part of my bigger 20 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,640 Speaker 1: frustration and maybe you know this. Kids these days don't 21 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 1: have teams anymore. They have players. Yeah, have you seen 22 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:10,960 Speaker 1: that trend? 23 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:13,720 Speaker 2: Well, you know, so our four adopted little's right, I 24 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 2: got I got two loyal boys to Dad, and then 25 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 2: I've got the oldest loyal boy to mom. So he's 26 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 2: a suffering Cowboys fan just because Mom was born here 27 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 2: in Texas. So she's of course got a roof for 28 00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 2: the Cowboys and the little Noel. She just she's just 29 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 2: Mama's girls. So it just is what it is. So, yeah, 30 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,959 Speaker 2: those boys they love Daddy's teams or they love Mama's team, 31 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 2: and all all of our teams collectively, Cowboys, Patriots, Saints, 32 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,119 Speaker 2: we're just we're on struggle street these days. 33 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,039 Speaker 1: Oh I know, I know. And and so that's I 34 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,840 Speaker 1: can't make a better argument with Lincoln because I'm like, 35 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: look at the Cowboys. Never mind, don't want to get Cowboys, 36 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 1: you know, don't do that. But it is frustrating that 37 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 1: that he's like he knows every player on every team 38 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: and every number, but there's no team loyalty. Yeah, this 39 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 1: is this is something I think it goes back to, 40 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 1: like in ol nil stuff because there look at those guys. 41 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 1: Those guys don't have loyalty either. 42 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, and we see it really across the landscape of sports. 43 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 2: But when you look at SEC football and the NIL 44 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,839 Speaker 2: and this transfer portal, it's kind of crippled. What made 45 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 2: the SEC so beautiful. It's also what made my Patriots 46 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 2: team so beautiful. That it was just you had fifty 47 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 2: three alpha dogs that all just laid it down for 48 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,359 Speaker 2: each other. There wasn't like we're not trying to get 49 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,639 Speaker 2: out of here and go here, but no, no, no, how 50 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,239 Speaker 2: do we sacrifice for each other? How do we put 51 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 2: the team first? How do we work hard? How do 52 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 2: we do our stinking jobs so that everyone gets glory? 53 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 2: And that's why we won so much and that is gone. 54 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 2: And it's like, you know, Auburn, you're trapped there for 55 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 2: three or four years, right because if you transfer then 56 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 2: when I was playing, you had to sit out a year. 57 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 2: Nobody wanted to sit out from playing football for a year, 58 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 2: but Auburn, we just had a bunch of just tough 59 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,639 Speaker 2: old dudes, right, and we were good my junior year. 60 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 2: But you know, Auburn's somewhat of a football program. Now 61 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 2: we're a basketball program. Bruce Pearl's turn around our. 62 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: Football team number one right now? 63 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 2: Install you know what I mean, I love it, you know, 64 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 2: I'm just I love all burn through and through. But 65 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 2: we'll leave that football discussion for another day. 66 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 1: It's hard, yeah, if we will, and hopefully you'll be 67 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:21,360 Speaker 1: back many times if you ask. But yeah, that the 68 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:25,920 Speaker 1: college football climate has changed so much that you know, me, 69 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:29,360 Speaker 1: I'm such a huge fan of Texas A and M, 70 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 1: but it's very difficult to remain a good fan in 71 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 1: this climate. 72 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 2: Well, you used to recruit a young man and you 73 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 2: would speak to his parents and you try to figure 74 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 2: out what were the priorities of this young man. Did 75 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 2: he want to grow in manhood? Did he want to 76 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 2: grow in discipline and integrity and character? And the good 77 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 2: college coaches were really trying to pinpoint. Okay, hey, is 78 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 2: this dude a stud athlete? Great, because we need those, 79 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 2: but is this kid going to lay it on the line, 80 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,120 Speaker 2: you know, for me and the staff and the the 81 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 2: players around him? You know? And now, like you listen 82 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 2: to Nick Saban talking about how recruiting, how hard it got, right, 83 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 2: I was so surprised to see Belichick jumping this un spool, 84 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 2: you know, in the college ranks now having to recruit 85 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 2: on a kind of a one year term and try 86 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 2: to build a college program around it. So be interesting 87 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 2: to see. But the selflessness is the most beautiful thing 88 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 2: in the world, and it's really how soul was satisfied 89 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:31,239 Speaker 2: being like Christ. And yet everything that's being sold now 90 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 2: is about selfishness. And these kids, you can't make them happy. 91 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:40,360 Speaker 2: They'd ever find satisfaction if they get the first little 92 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 2: lick of adversity. Oh, I'm not starting as a freshman. 93 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 2: I'm out of here. We're raising a bunch of losers 94 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 2: and a bunch of quitters, and it's the opposite of 95 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 2: what college football used to be. 96 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 1: Did you hear that Nick Saban bit about transactional verse transformational? 97 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 1: He did it on College Game Date several months ago. 98 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I've probably heard something about you him and Bill 99 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 2: Belichick's stories that they're all the same. 100 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, totally. But really this is kind of when 101 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 1: he's spoken out a lot about why he's not in 102 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,040 Speaker 1: coaching anymore. Oh I know, yeah, but he also talked 103 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,239 Speaker 1: about his success happened when he realized the difference between 104 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:18,719 Speaker 1: transactional coaching, which is input output I need this, I 105 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 1: need a win, and transformational, like, regardless of the outcome 106 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:27,159 Speaker 1: of the game, we're making life transformations here together, and 107 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 1: I want you to leave the school, being a better 108 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,479 Speaker 1: man than you started, and in the process of that, 109 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,039 Speaker 1: they started winning games. And that's exactly what you're saying. 110 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 1: Transformational coaching. It's out, it's only about transactions. Now. 111 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:44,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, how you win it, life and even how 112 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 2: we win in the Christian faith is about perseverance. It's 113 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:54,840 Speaker 2: about selflessness, it's about working hard. It's about not seeking 114 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 2: your personal glory but a greater glory. And football is 115 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 2: not that difficult. It's just really really hard and painful, 116 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 2: and life is often that way, right, But the simplicity 117 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 2: of the truth that a Nick Saban teaches or that 118 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:11,839 Speaker 2: a Bill Balichick taught us. You know, we think about, 119 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 2: you know, our kind of four commands when we came 120 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 2: in every single day, Let's do your job right. Well, 121 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 2: that seems pretty easy. But then when you start breaking 122 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,360 Speaker 2: that down into what that cost a person, that's really 123 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 2: really hard. And then you start talking about working hard. Sure, 124 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 2: let's work hard, Well, what does working hard mean? It's 125 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 2: going to cost you everything during the course of the 126 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 2: season to truly work hard put the team first. Yeah, hoorah. Selflessness. 127 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 2: It's really really hard to be selfless, especially when selflessness 128 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 2: cost you playing time because that's what's better for the team. 129 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:46,919 Speaker 2: You know, when Tom Brady went down in two thousand 130 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 2: and eight, my playing time kind of went out the window. 131 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 2: You know what, Tommy, we could do a little bit 132 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:52,840 Speaker 2: of everything. Well, Matt Castle comes in, who had never 133 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 2: played really in the league before, never even really played 134 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 2: at USC, and Bill's like, all right, hey, listen, I'm 135 00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 2: putting you on all four special teams can't really use 136 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:01,720 Speaker 2: a full back because I gotta spread everything out. I 137 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:03,599 Speaker 2: gotta let math cast. We'll kind of see the field. 138 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:05,599 Speaker 2: So you've got to be ready to play. I'm not 139 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:07,359 Speaker 2: going to give you any reps at practice. I trust you, 140 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 2: I love you, but hey, you gotta be ready for this, 141 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 2: this and this. But you know your full back reps. 142 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 2: You're thirty forty full back reps. You might see the 143 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 2: field ten or twelve snaps of game now. And that 144 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 2: was kind of the story for me in two thousand 145 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 2: and eight. Happy to do it one because I've been 146 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 2: raised by a marine dad who had taught me that 147 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 2: before I got to Bill. But everyone in New England 148 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 2: lived by that motto what's best for the team and 149 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 2: learning to put yourself aside into sacrifice for the benefit 150 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 2: of others is really one of the great joys of 151 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 2: the Christian faith. But for those that would deny our Christ, 152 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 2: it's still the only way to find somewhat of satisfaction 153 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 2: and pleasure in this life is building something around people 154 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 2: so that at least when you get to the mountaintop, 155 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 2: you're not all alone, because most people get there and 156 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 2: they're miserable. Well, we know the story, we need Jesus, 157 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 2: but freedom those that would deny the faith better together. 158 00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 2: That's sweet, you know, just building something for me, me, me. 159 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 2: Those are the loneliest, most selfish, miserable people in the world. 160 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 1: You know. That's the story of the fullback. Really, I mean, 161 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: the big number forty four fullback is not something someone 162 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 1: strives to be now. Yeah, it's like I gotta like 163 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 1: do the grunt work. I got to get the small yardage. 164 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: I don't get to get the big play. I don't 165 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 1: know if I want that. 166 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 2: And so many of the teams don't even have them anymore, right, 167 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 2: you know, And the game is. 168 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 1: You might be the last generation of the of the 169 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 1: great fullbacks. 170 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. What's funny is is most of the time we 171 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 2: get to this playoff season and like the final eight teams. 172 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 2: I've always said six of them are going to have 173 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 2: a fullback, you know, and we're really starting to get 174 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 2: to the point where that's just not the truth anymore. 175 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 2: And so I can't keep up with this game. You know, 176 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 2: the high school is kind of overtaken the college and 177 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 2: NFL ranks. It used to be the opposite, right, the 178 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,200 Speaker 2: high school or coaches used to kind of look to 179 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,319 Speaker 2: the NFL, Hey, what are they doing? And you learn 180 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,440 Speaker 2: this pedigree of football that made you smart and mentally 181 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,560 Speaker 2: and physically and emotionally disaip. Now it's like, hey, where's 182 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 2: the best athlete. Let's throw them a quarterback and then 183 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,559 Speaker 2: let's pay play this chaotic brand of football and just 184 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 2: run around and hope we win. That's really what it. 185 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 1: Is, and that's what's happening in high school. 186 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's what's kind of we see in college, 187 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,680 Speaker 2: and it's what we see in the NFL. Brady talks 188 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 2: about it all the time. The lack of mental and 189 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 2: emotional growth really cripples these guys by the time they 190 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 2: get to the pro game. I don't ever want to 191 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 2: be one of those old school guys. Oh it's tougher 192 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:31,439 Speaker 2: when we did it right, we talk about rules and 193 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 2: all stuff. I'm not sure much of that really matters. 194 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,079 Speaker 2: But we could trust Tommy at any point in time 195 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 2: because he was so mentally astute and so mentally prepared, 196 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 2: because he had worked hard and he had put the 197 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 2: team first and he did do his job that if 198 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:46,680 Speaker 2: we were in a bad play that Josh McDaniels called 199 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,200 Speaker 2: or Bill called, Tommy was going to get us in 200 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 2: a good call. And the way that team worked most 201 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 2: of the time, we'd all be walking up to that 202 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 2: line of scrimmage together saying, oh, this is a bad call, 203 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,079 Speaker 2: and we'd all be kind of thinking the same thing. 204 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:00,679 Speaker 2: Tommy would get us into that good play. Well, now 205 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 2: you've got players there that you know, they've just been 206 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 2: the best athletes. They've never been taught to shift protections. 207 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 2: They've never been taught to look at a defense and 208 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,079 Speaker 2: be like, oh, well they're in some nickel package. They 209 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 2: can't possibly defend what we have coming. So I know 210 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:14,559 Speaker 2: my first read is going to be blocked because of this. 211 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 2: Second two and three are gonna be wide open. People 212 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 2: aren't taught the hard disciplines of the game, and it 213 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,319 Speaker 2: starts with oh I didn't get my way and so 214 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 2: piece I'm out of here. I'm like, I don't listen. 215 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 2: I'm not raising my three boys that way. I have 216 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 2: raised my three girls that way. And it's just, uh, yeah, 217 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 2: I don't know. It's taking a lot of the sweetness 218 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 2: out of football in a lot of ways. For me. 219 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 1: I can't imagine, man, because I see it and I'm 220 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 1: not in the game. I saw Tyreek Hill talking about 221 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 1: something about, you know, they didn't make the playoffs, and 222 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 1: he was talking to something along the lines of, man, 223 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,559 Speaker 1: I think I think I'm out of here. Yeah, it's 224 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 1: not me. I'm not a guy that doesn't make the playoffs. 225 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 1: It was me, me, me. 226 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 2: Yeah. 227 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 1: It's like, oh man, it's bad. 228 00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:01,199 Speaker 2: Yeah, especially for a team. Many people have been affected 229 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 2: by cancer, and so I don't ever want to be 230 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 2: that consideration. Say it, I get it, but cancer has 231 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 2: to be killed, right, and it has to be killed 232 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 2: radically or it's going to grow radically, right, And there's 233 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 2: really there's no neutral ground. It's the same way with 234 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 2: bad teammates. And Bill knew that in New England. We 235 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 2: knew that in New Orleans. And so no matter how 236 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 2: talented a player may be, that whining, that grumbling that 237 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 2: complaining it's a cancer, right, and it eventually it spreads, 238 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 2: and so you can take a good dude, and if 239 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,959 Speaker 2: you surround him with too many cancers, that good dude's 240 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 2: going to become a cancer in your locker room. And 241 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,720 Speaker 2: Bill was cutthroat. First round draft pick or seventh round 242 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 2: draft pick, if you weren't abiding by the law, you 243 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 2: were gone, no matter what it cost the team, because 244 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 2: Bill knew it might cost us fifty million now, but 245 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 2: if I let this fifty million dollar cancer stay, it's 246 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 2: going to be one hundred million dollar cancer like that. 247 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 2: And so it was cutthroat about Hey, we would call 248 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 2: it dealing with sent We're going to be radical with 249 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 2: it and move on. And there were so many things 250 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 2: as I kind of like for the Lord to save me. 251 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:09,080 Speaker 2: And I look back on so much of Bill's teaching 252 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:14,119 Speaker 2: in the way he built his teams. It's so biblical 253 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 2: in nature. He would never he would never say that, right. 254 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 2: His is more militaristic, given from his dad and just 255 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 2: his background, but it is it's built on selflessness, and 256 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:27,720 Speaker 2: the law of the Lord was evident throughout the preaching 257 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,719 Speaker 2: and the dynamics of that team. We were just doing 258 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 2: it for team glory and self glory and not the 259 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:34,440 Speaker 2: glory of God. 260 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 1: So you're not a Christian when you play football. 261 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 2: I thought it was. I mean, I was team chapelain. 262 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 2: I was leading chapels and I wasn't living hypocritically. Really right, 263 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 2: you're the chaplain. I was just in New England. So 264 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 2: when I got to New England, my buddy Don Davis, 265 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 2: faithful man of God Bill was he guarded the locker 266 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 2: room and he guarded the property and so just getting 267 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 2: a chaplain on site was hard, and so they had 268 00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 2: always just kind of done it in house, so faithful 269 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 2: brother would just kind of step up and they would 270 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 2: lead it. So as Don kind of went about his way, 271 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 2: I kind of filled the void, me and my buddy 272 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 2: Ben Watson. And then when I went to New Orleans, 273 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,719 Speaker 2: I kind of brought that same type of concept of like, hey, 274 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 2: let's we're a team. Let's build this in house. And so, 275 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 2: of course I had sin in my life, and of 276 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 2: course I knew that, but I was raised by godly parents. 277 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 2: But I was raised to believe that we choose Jesus. 278 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:29,719 Speaker 2: And for the first you know, I was saved and 279 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 2: baptized at eight years old set a sinner's prayer, and 280 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 2: from eight to thirty eight I was convinced that I 281 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:43,440 Speaker 2: was a boarding en believer. My life at that point 282 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 2: probably had one season that people would have been like, ah, 283 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:48,640 Speaker 2: he just walked away from the Lord and season of sin, 284 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:52,559 Speaker 2: call it lukewarm, whatever. But there was no ever intentional 285 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:56,680 Speaker 2: like hypocrisy in my life. My dad just raised me 286 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,440 Speaker 2: to be disciplined and this is what godly looks like, 287 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 2: and this is what repentance is. And so we would 288 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 2: confess and we would do those things, and I truly 289 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,200 Speaker 2: believe my mom and dad do them from a regenerated heart. 290 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:10,959 Speaker 2: I did it because it was just what I was 291 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 2: raised to do, and I knew that this was true. 292 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 2: At thirty eight, I just had a radical encounter with 293 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 2: the living God who saved my soul. 294 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 1: You can't leave it like that, you can't. 295 00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 2: Leave I've had such a blessed life, you know, from 296 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 2: parents to pastors to the NFL. God's graciousness to me 297 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 2: is common, just grace to me. I mean, I had 298 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 2: it all. I had everything that a young man needed 299 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 2: to love God and walk faithfully and to fear him. 300 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 2: And in so many ways, Buddy from generosity, with the 301 00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 2: financial blessings and the mouthpiece to boast about Christ. I 302 00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 2: did all those things right, and I knew it right, 303 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 2: and I knew that this was the way to eternal life. Right. 304 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 2: But the Lord through some really painful times at I 305 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:18,520 Speaker 2: don't even know where to start. Long story short, at 306 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 2: thirty eight years old, myself, Marshall, Falk, Lawren Sab, Donovan McNabb, 307 00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 2: a whole group of us, some of our executives were 308 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 2: accused by one woman of sexual harassment. 309 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 1: So you worked for the NFL network network. 310 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 2: For those of you all listening, ten years in the NFL, 311 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 2: I was the chubby white boy that everyone said would 312 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 2: never play in the NFL. I was like, screw you, 313 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 2: watch this. I got this, you know, arrogant as can be, 314 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 2: and of course, praise God all the way. This is 315 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 2: his doing. YadA YadA, Yeah, of course, of course right. 316 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:48,480 Speaker 2: I always said I wanted to play ten years and 317 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 2: then reevaluate and then go into TV. By God's common 318 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 2: grace to me, it's exactly what I did. I played 319 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 2: ten years, jumped off the train physically healthy, had offers 320 00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 2: from ESPN and NFL networks. So I'm like, oh my gosh, 321 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 2: you make a lot of money. Just run in your 322 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 2: mouth about this game, way better than taking a fullback beating. 323 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 2: So I do that for eight years at NFL Network 324 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 2: and was building a very strong brand for a form 325 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 2: of fullback. Fullbacks don't get these gigs. It's quarterbacks and superstars. 326 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 2: I worked with Dion Sanders and Kurt Warner and all 327 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 2: those guys. And I was divorced from my first wife 328 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 2: and it ended in twenty fifteen, but it had ended 329 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 2: years previously, just kind of that long, arduous years of 330 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 2: process of kind of finishing. But after my ex wife left, 331 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 2: it took about eight months before I just I looked 332 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:39,440 Speaker 2: like the world, and I loved my sin, and I 333 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 2: practiced my sin, and I was really good at practicing 334 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 2: my sin. And because I didn't really truly know the 335 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 2: word of the Lord right, and because I didn't have 336 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 2: keen theologically sound eyes bringing me the proper rebukes in scripture, 337 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 2: I just thought I was a Christian string a Christian 338 00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:02,520 Speaker 2: that is wandering. I was not being disciplined by the Lord. 339 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 2: In twenty eighteen, this lady accused myself and those other 340 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:13,440 Speaker 2: names I mentioned of sexual harassment, and I hit rock 341 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:16,439 Speaker 2: bottom really, really quick. The way it went down was 342 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:18,680 Speaker 2: I was innocent. The league knew it.

And so for 372 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:31,879 Speaker 2: nine months they pay me almost a half a million 373 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:35,199 Speaker 2: dollars just so I was never suspended without pay. They 374 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 2: knew clearly I had not sexually harassed anyone. I don't 375 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 2: know about everyone else. I'm not going to speak about 376 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:47,399 Speaker 2: everyone else. I know this woman dearly. She was a hurting, sweet, 377 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:50,359 Speaker 2: kind lady in certain ways, and I don't know why 378 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 2: she would do that to me. This side of eternity 379 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:55,880 Speaker 2: and what God has taught me, I have no ill 380 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 2: will towards her. I have no ill will to the 381 00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:00,560 Speaker 2: people down up on network. But the end of the day, 382 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 2: they strung me along for nine months and then tried 383 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 2: to get me to sign some paperwork that I would 384 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 2: never sue them or sue her, and then try to 385 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,480 Speaker 2: get me to just pay me to go away. And 386 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 2: I wasn't saved at that time, but I was like, 387 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,159 Speaker 2: you're not taking my voice because I'm not going to 388 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 2: sign this paperwork because to the whole world, if I 389 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 2: signed this non disparagement agreement makes me look like I'm 390 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 2: guilty of something I didn't do. Yeah, I was not 391 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:21,679 Speaker 2: walking in sexual purity and I hadn't been pure with 392 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 2: that lady, but I had not done anything that was illegal, 393 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 2: and I had not done anything that was of the 394 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 2: sexual harassment nature even close to it. Sure, and I 395 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 2: just said, screw y'all, y'all fire me, do whatever you want. Well, 396 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 2: they spent about a month trying to negotiate with my 397 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 2: lawyer to get me to sign something to take some 398 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 2: pay out. Hey, we'll pay out your contract if you 399 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 2: signed this, YadA, YadA YadA, and I just said, y'all 400 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:42,919 Speaker 2: fire me whatever. So they ended up firing me for 401 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 2: a fitness picture that I had on their NFL network 402 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 2: phone that said if this ever got out, this would 403 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 2: embarrass the NFL. So they fired me for just cause 404 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:55,160 Speaker 2: because I had some check in fitness pictures of myself 405 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:59,000 Speaker 2: on my phone front and back that were I was 406 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 2: naked their fitness pick. There was nothing sexual of them whatsoever. 407 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:08,240 Speaker 2: And so yeah, long story short, fast forward. I know enough. 408 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 2: At that point, I'm like, I've been through a divorce, 409 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:14,640 Speaker 2: lost half of everything I had, I'm living in LA, 410 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,880 Speaker 2: can't move, funds ran out real real quick. All these 411 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:21,119 Speaker 2: different things kind of hit rock bottom. I'm reading in 412 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 2: First John. I get to the end of First John 413 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:29,679 Speaker 2: and I'm like, holy moly, I'm not a Christian. I 414 00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:33,119 Speaker 2: don't love God, I don't love others. 415 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 1: Remember what it was? 416 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:38,359 Speaker 2: And well, in First John, there's this I tell our 417 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,359 Speaker 2: built ready guys, it's like a test. Yeah, it lays 418 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:47,800 Speaker 2: out love God, love others, and this obedience to your 419 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:51,399 Speaker 2: supposed king will not be a burden. It's gonna be 420 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 2: a battle. We're gonna struggle with sin, We're going to 421 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 2: constantly have to run to the rock of Christ to 422 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 2: ask for forgiveness. But it isn't going to be a 423 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,640 Speaker 2: burden that weighs your old down to follow your king. 424 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 2: And I'm like, man, I've just loved God for what 425 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 2: He's given me, and it was never Jesus that I 426 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 2: loved because I never truly saw my need for Jesus, 427 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 2: because I didn't see myself as the dude in the 428 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:20,960 Speaker 2: ditch that the good Samaritan had to rescue his life. 429 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 2: I could do nothing for myself. I needed Jesus to 430 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:26,879 Speaker 2: drag me out of the pit, mend me, put me 431 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:30,399 Speaker 2: back together, pay for me to be made well, and 432 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 2: then I can go out being that good Samaritan by 433 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:36,640 Speaker 2: God's grace. I never saw myself the one. I didn't 434 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:38,840 Speaker 2: see myself as helpless. I didn't see myself as dead. 435 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:42,520 Speaker 2: I didn't see myself as hater of God, enemy of God, 436 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:46,679 Speaker 2: me running from God and Jesus and chasing down me 437 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:50,159 Speaker 2: like he did Adam and Eve. And so eyes started 438 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 2: to be open to the true Gospel, not the American Gospel, 439 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:55,679 Speaker 2: not the gospel I even really fully grew up around. 440 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 2: But then I got to like, man, yeah, I've looked 441 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:03,399 Speaker 2: like a loved a lot of people, charity work, and 442 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,879 Speaker 2: because I knew this is what you do. But the 443 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 2: whole time it was Heath Evans discipline. Just kind of 444 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 2: pulled myself up on my bootstraps, getting to work, love God, 445 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 2: love people, right, Obey and so it was. It was 446 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:18,720 Speaker 2: the full back mindset. I'm just gonna go do to 447 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 2: work and I'm gonna find a way to get it done. 448 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:24,960 Speaker 2: But when I got to the kicker, I'm like, yeah, 449 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 2: I've obeyed, but it's always been a burden. It's always 450 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,719 Speaker 2: been a burden to obey him. And I started to 451 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 2: buy God's grace piece this thing together. It's like, oh 452 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 2: my gosh, I'm not even saved, and. 453 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 1: You put this together yourself. 454 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I mean, heck no, it was all sir, 455 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 2: I understand it, And no I wish because at this point, 456 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 2: I'm going to a false church. Like it's been about 457 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:56,479 Speaker 2: Maybe I can't remember all the exact dates, but it's 458 00:22:56,480 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 2: probably been somewhere between four to six weeks post being fired, Right, 459 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,240 Speaker 2: I've run back to the Lord because I know this 460 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 2: is my refuge in time of help, my ever present 461 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 2: help in time of need. Like I knew these things, right. 462 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 2: So I went back to reading my Bible every day, 463 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:12,439 Speaker 2: but this time the Lord opened my eyes to it 464 00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 2: for real. And so as I'm like striking these things, 465 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 2: and I'm like, WHOA. And when I kind of came 466 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,960 Speaker 2: to this realization that I'd just never been saved. Thoughly, 467 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,840 Speaker 2: spirit was like, yeah, but these last few weeks, have 468 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 2: you not loved me? Have you not loved loving others 469 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 2: in a pure way that is like Christ? And then 470 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:36,959 Speaker 2: in these last few weeks, has it been a burden 471 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,639 Speaker 2: to serve me? And I was like, graciously, I'm like no, 472 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 2: Like my heart for the first time had been drawn 473 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:48,439 Speaker 2: to Christ. And then as I keep reading, I'm like, 474 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:52,439 Speaker 2: the Lord opens my eyes more to these doctrines of grace, 475 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 2: right and listen, I saw your beautiful library. Like people 476 00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 2: have asked me since I was four, I don't read 477 00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 2: Sports Illustrated. I don't read anything but my Bible. It's 478 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 2: kind of been my line my whole life. Yeah, well 479 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:04,000 Speaker 2: that was just where I was at at the time. 480 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,480 Speaker 2: And so all that being said, the Lord brought me 481 00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:09,480 Speaker 2: through some really hard times. I was suing the NFL 482 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:12,080 Speaker 2: for what they did to me. Felt like through scripture, 483 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:14,119 Speaker 2: the Word was like, Hey, are you going to do 484 00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 2: it your way? Are you going to trust me to 485 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 2: rebuild whatever it is that I want to rebuild. Are 486 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,960 Speaker 2: you going to be heaths still? Are you going to 487 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 2: be mine? And so in God's kindness, I just felt 488 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 2: like it was the right thing to do to drop 489 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:30,360 Speaker 2: the lawsuit, sent the NFL somewhat of an apology. Hey, 490 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:34,680 Speaker 2: I'm sorry for wow smearing smearing y'all's names the last 491 00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:39,360 Speaker 2: few weeks. I tried to word it very strategically where 492 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 2: it wasn't a fake apology, but I just tried to 493 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 2: be obedient to what I felt like the Holy Spirit 494 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:45,640 Speaker 2: was guiding me to do about. They were the authority 495 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 2: that God put over me at that time, and they 496 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 2: were an evil authority, but I still needed to submit 497 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:57,399 Speaker 2: to what God had rightly placed me under, and I 498 00:24:57,480 --> 00:24:58,880 Speaker 2: wasn't doing that by suing them. 499 00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:01,359 Speaker 1: Did anybody reply from the NFL to that. 500 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 2: Yes, one lady, and it was much appreciated. 501 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 1: Would I mean, that's so weird, it's funny. 502 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:15,919 Speaker 2: The lady who replied would have been the one that 503 00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 2: I would have expected not to because she was one 504 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:25,360 Speaker 2: that I had maybe the least relationship with. In those moments, 505 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 2: I started to slightly see how my life had betrayed 506 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:36,240 Speaker 2: Christ in so many ways, and I started to see 507 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 2: what you and I would now call her depravity. But 508 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 2: I started to see that I was just evil, and 509 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:47,159 Speaker 2: I was wicked, and I just used people, and I 510 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 2: was so blind to the reality of like, how disgusting 511 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:54,760 Speaker 2: I am as a human and as a created being 512 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 2: of God. And yet everything, all of life had been 513 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:02,200 Speaker 2: about me. And yet I was so evil and so wicked. 514 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 2: I didn't even know it, and those around me didn't 515 00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:06,479 Speaker 2: know it. You would have find people been, Yeah, he's 516 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:09,359 Speaker 2: a little cocky, little arrogant, very confident what he's gonna 517 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 2: do and I'm not going to do, but very normal 518 00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 2: for my field of influence and sports. Right, but the 519 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,200 Speaker 2: people that knew me would be like me. He's gracious 520 00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 2: and kind, and he's gonna bend over backwards to help people, 521 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 2: and he's got a real heart for anyone who's ever 522 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:24,919 Speaker 2: been sexually abused, and all these ranks. So but the 523 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:28,960 Speaker 2: Lord through their betrayal of me, which was hurtful, Right, 524 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:31,000 Speaker 2: I had given eighteen years of my life to serve 525 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:33,200 Speaker 2: these people, and then I felt like I had been 526 00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 2: set up and trapped to kind of keep my mouth shut, 527 00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:38,160 Speaker 2: because from day one I wanted to scream from the rooftops. Hey, 528 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,040 Speaker 2: I've done a lot of simple things, but I've never 529 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 2: done this, and anyone that knows me. And the crazy 530 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:45,520 Speaker 2: part was I had so many of the women in 531 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 2: the NFL network that went to my defense, right, and 532 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 2: so they knew. Everyone in that building knew, right, he 533 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:57,879 Speaker 2: ain't perfect, but this ain't Heath. And but as I 534 00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:00,640 Speaker 2: got past that, I and the Lord started to open 535 00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:03,600 Speaker 2: my eyes to his word. I just saw more and 536 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:07,119 Speaker 2: more of how I betrayed Christ and yet he loved me, 537 00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 2: and from eternity past he had a plan to save me, 538 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 2: and that his plan included me being massively betrayed with 539 00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:21,960 Speaker 2: international embarrassing news, my name being splattered everywhere because people 540 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:26,119 Speaker 2: don't ever look at the content of a charge or 541 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 2: the context. Right, I don't care, Yeah, right, It's just 542 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:32,639 Speaker 2: juicy gossip, right, And so that it's Marshall Faulk and 543 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:35,600 Speaker 2: Heath Devins and listen, I was the I was the 544 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:37,919 Speaker 2: that was the nobody name of the group of all 545 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 2: the people that were charged. Right. And then after nine months, 546 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:44,680 Speaker 2: Marshall Faulk calls me and he said, hey, they're getting 547 00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:46,159 Speaker 2: ready to try to make us kind of take a 548 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 2: plea deal. They just drove all the way from LA 549 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:50,440 Speaker 2: to San Diego to meet me and they're not bringing 550 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 2: us back. I'm like, what, so. 551 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:57,359 Speaker 1: So you you skated over the rock bottom part yeah, 552 00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 1: but it was probably really bad. 553 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,480 Speaker 2: Well, it's you know, it's funny like when you play 554 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 2: in the NFL, right, everyone thinks everyone's millionaires. 555 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:06,400 Speaker 1: Right. 556 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:08,639 Speaker 2: Well, when I played, you get a few guys on 557 00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 2: the team that were making really really good money. And 558 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:12,640 Speaker 2: these are the hard parts because like I was making 559 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:17,159 Speaker 2: really good money compared to the normal people. Right. And 560 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:19,639 Speaker 2: then you know, you go through a divorce living in 561 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 2: LA and so then you kind of the way I 562 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:24,200 Speaker 2: structured that I thought was wise. I'm like, hey, I'm 563 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:26,040 Speaker 2: going to keep all my retirement and we'll just kind 564 00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:28,160 Speaker 2: of give all this, you know to the ex wife, 565 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:30,640 Speaker 2: and is how we'll divide the line. And then I'm 566 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:32,400 Speaker 2: working in the NFL network. So I had this great 567 00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:34,880 Speaker 2: job and so I'll kind of rebuild this wealth over 568 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:37,119 Speaker 2: the next ten or fifteen years working for Fox in 569 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 2: the NFL network. Well, you know, two years after the divorce, 570 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 2: all that plan got shot to oblivion or. 571 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 1: Where where's Jesus in the divorce? Where's your face? Yeah? 572 00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 2: Well, and so. 573 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 1: I wildly relate to your story. That's you know, it's 574 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:57,480 Speaker 1: part of my questioning is because I wildly relate to 575 00:28:57,520 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 1: what you're saying. In a lot of ways. 576 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:03,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I married my first wife at twenty two. From 577 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 2: day one, it was a really hard marriage, and I 578 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 2: thought I loved her well. I didn't because I was 579 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:14,760 Speaker 2: incapable of love. I thought I served her well. I 580 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 2: didn't because I was incapable. I thought I dealt with 581 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 2: her heart wounds that were way before me. Well, I 582 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:21,360 Speaker 2: wasn't capable. 583 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 1: You know. 584 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 2: We hid everything in house, and so we had a 585 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 2: lot of secrecy that was just hers and ours or 586 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 2: hers and ours together, and we didn't seek wise counsel 587 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:32,960 Speaker 2: because I thought I need to cover her and I 588 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 2: don't want to embarrass her. I don't want to embarrass us, 589 00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 2: And so we were ill equipped to deal with those 590 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 2: things well, and so wounds just festered. It was just 591 00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 2: really hard, and so for ten years, everyone would have 592 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 2: looked at us like, oh man, he's just loving his 593 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 2: wife really, really, really well through a tough marriage and 594 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 2: hard stuff. I wasn't because I was incapable of it. 595 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 2: But after about ten years, that bitterness and a knee 596 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 2: injury right in the middle of our Super Bowl year 597 00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 2: with the Saints.

There was nothing 640 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:02,040 Speaker 2: that I was turning to other than Jesus. It was 641 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 2: in my Bible every day, all those things. 642 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 1: It's in some some theologians would say it's like when 643 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:09,000 Speaker 1: an animal dies, sometimes it still kicks a little bit. 644 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:12,320 Speaker 1: Yeah there's still life that mimics life, but yeah, the animals. 645 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:15,600 Speaker 2: Dead dead dead dead, right.

And then because 652 00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:41,040 Speaker 2: before the beginning of time, God loved me, having nothing 653 00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 2: to do with me, he disciplined me. It was hard, 654 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 2: but I'm so thankful and I'm thankful he still disciplines me. 655 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:55,240 Speaker 2: And you know, I lost everything except for my health 656 00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:59,360 Speaker 2: and my two beautiful daughters. God was so gracious to 657 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:06,640 Speaker 2: me in that. And you know, since July of twenty eighteen, 658 00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 2: he's just been building the story that I asked him. 659 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:13,000 Speaker 2: I started to ask him that Lord, I want you 660 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 2: to rebuild or build something that no man can take 661 00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:20,880 Speaker 2: credit for. I want you to have your way in 662 00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:24,480 Speaker 2: my life. We're not even the outside world can look 663 00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 2: and say look what he's done. They have to say, 664 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:29,480 Speaker 2: look what the righteous creator, God of the world has 665 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:32,280 Speaker 2: done in Heath, and I believe that's what he's doing, 666 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:33,360 Speaker 2: you know, so. 667 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 1: The you know, I was radically saved out of cultural 668 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:45,600 Speaker 1: Christianity through John fourteen. The disciple asked Jesus, Lord, why 669 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:48,760 Speaker 1: is it that you manifest yourself to us but not 670 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 1: to the world. And as I'm listening to the sermons, 671 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 1: and I'm thinking, that's a good question. How was at 672 00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:01,680 Speaker 1: rock bottom searching for answers? Searching it for who was Jesus? 673 00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 1: Because I didn't have any fruits of the spirit that 674 00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 1: you're supposed to have as a Christian and in my 675 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 1: my rock bottomness, I didn't have It's like that, I 676 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:15,400 Speaker 1: didn't have that. So so yeah, Disciple, that's a good question, 677 00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:17,879 Speaker 1: how will Jesus answer, because maybe that's maybe I need 678 00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:21,759 Speaker 1: to know this. And Jesus says something just it blew 679 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:25,240 Speaker 1: me away, changed everything for me, And it's the opposite 680 00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 1: of what I thought he was going to say. He says, 681 00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:31,279 Speaker 1: if anyone loves me, he'll keep my word, and my 682 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:34,280 Speaker 1: father will love him, and we will come to him 683 00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:38,480 Speaker 1: and make our home with him. And suddenly, and suddenly 684 00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:43,240 Speaker 1: I knew in this reverse psychology that I was loved, 685 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:47,240 Speaker 1: not because of anything I did, but I was loved, 686 00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:49,800 Speaker 1: and he was with me, and they had come to me, 687 00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:52,760 Speaker 1: and they had made a home in me. And yet 688 00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:54,799 Speaker 1: he says, you'll know the people that I've made a 689 00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:56,960 Speaker 1: home with. You'll know them because those are the people 690 00:34:57,080 --> 00:35:01,239 Speaker 1: keep my word. And I thought, so I'm loved, And 691 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:04,399 Speaker 1: yet I don't keep his word. I don't even really 692 00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:07,279 Speaker 1: know all of his word. And so it hit me 693 00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:09,920 Speaker 1: from reverse. And that's that's where you're saying, the realization 694 00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:13,280 Speaker 1: that you were loved because he said something really interesting earlier. 695 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 1: You said, I used to think that I choose Jesus. Yeah, 696 00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:21,880 Speaker 1: isn't that American? That's the American gospel. Yeah, choose Jesus. 697 00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 2: One think about it. It's the opposite of the gospel. Yeah, 698 00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:31,920 Speaker 2: it's this people like we receive. I'm like, yes, I'm 699 00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,279 Speaker 2: a dummy, but even I can read and study what 700 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:37,520 Speaker 2: these words mean. And this receiving of God's grace is passive. 701 00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:42,120 Speaker 2: It's like he's drawling. He's literally he is taking us 702 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:44,160 Speaker 2: and bringing us back to the fold or the sheep 703 00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:48,520 Speaker 2: running away. And the more that the Lord just opens 704 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:53,919 Speaker 2: my eyes to Christ, the more I just see, Oh, 705 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:58,560 Speaker 2: my gosh, he loves me because I'm a disastrous train wreck. 706 00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:02,760 Speaker 2: And yet oh, my gosh, she loves me in seeing 707 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:04,919 Speaker 2: the disastrous train wreck that I am in my own 708 00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:11,400 Speaker 2: power and my own my own being. It's what spurs 709 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:14,880 Speaker 2: me on to be holy, like he's holy in that. 710 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,680 Speaker 2: We talk about the American Gospel, right, and even the 711 00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:22,680 Speaker 2: way the Lord saved you, right, you'll obey. And so 712 00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:25,400 Speaker 2: we look at this believe word in John three sixteen 713 00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 2: in America, we look at it like the demons. Yeah right, yeah, 714 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:35,920 Speaker 2: but that believe means to love and to obey, And 715 00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:38,000 Speaker 2: it's very easy to see when the Lord gives you 716 00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:41,800 Speaker 2: eyes to read John right, that word believe close to 717 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:43,719 Speaker 2: one hundred times or so. And don't check my math 718 00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 2: because I'm full back. Too many concussions, right, yeah, but believe, believe, believe. 719 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:51,759 Speaker 2: Then we get to John twenty and he's like, this 720 00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:54,600 Speaker 2: is why I wrote this, So you believe that Jesus 721 00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:58,759 Speaker 2: is the Lord, the Messiah, right, and then upon believing 722 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,520 Speaker 2: you have eternal life, right, that we would just love 723 00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:03,640 Speaker 2: him because he first loved us, you know. 724 00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:06,880 Speaker 1: And so yeah, John three thirty six, whoever believes in 725 00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:10,680 Speaker 1: the sun has eternal life. Whoever does not obey. Yes, 726 00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:13,920 Speaker 1: that word all of a sudden's interchanged, does not have life. Yeah, 727 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:17,160 Speaker 1: the wrath of God remains upon him, so he John 728 00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:20,960 Speaker 1: just casually other changes believe and obey. Yeah, as if 729 00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:24,240 Speaker 1: we would know that believing always equals obeying and obeying 730 00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:25,200 Speaker 1: always equals believe. 731 00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:28,680 Speaker 2: Amen. Amen. And then the start of John three, like, 732 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:32,960 Speaker 2: we get so enamored with three sixteen, and rightfully so 733 00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 2: we could, we could, we could. I literally think we're 734 00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:38,239 Speaker 2: going to be in the heaven leaves for for for 735 00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:41,759 Speaker 2: eternity after eternity, just wrapping our minds around that one verse. 736 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 2: But when you look at three five and six and 737 00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:47,880 Speaker 2: seven and eight, he literally tells us it's the wind 738 00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:51,319 Speaker 2: and he blows where he will. You had nothing to 739 00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:53,640 Speaker 2: do with your first birth. Why would you think you 740 00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:56,080 Speaker 2: have anything to do with your second birth? It is 741 00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:59,160 Speaker 2: the Holy Spirit that comes and gives you grace, gives 742 00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:02,760 Speaker 2: you eyes to the ears that truly want to believe 743 00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:06,440 Speaker 2: the Word of Christ, that sets us free and free indeed, right, 744 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:09,279 Speaker 2: and you mentioned thirtieth at six, right, you know, it's 745 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:13,440 Speaker 2: like when the Lord does his great work and literally 746 00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:16,959 Speaker 2: remove the scales from our eyes. It's like you can't help. 747 00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:21,279 Speaker 2: But see, I've had nothing to do with this, and 748 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:24,680 Speaker 2: I've had everything to do with why God should abandon me, 749 00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:27,840 Speaker 2: why he shouldn't be faithful? Yeah, right, And he tells 750 00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:30,640 Speaker 2: us he humbles us from the jump because he knows 751 00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 2: in his kindness that it's humility is the only place 752 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:37,080 Speaker 2: that we ever find freedom, when we can get past 753 00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:40,880 Speaker 2: ourselves and rest and trust in Him. That's where assurance 754 00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 2: of faith comes from. As you and I know, I 755 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:44,920 Speaker 2: don't want to be judged on how I love my wife. 756 00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:48,080 Speaker 2: I don't want to be judged on how I faithfully 757 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:51,560 Speaker 2: patiently discipline my children. I don't want to be judged 758 00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:53,640 Speaker 2: on how I love my brothers and sisters at Trinity 759 00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:55,920 Speaker 2: River Baptist Church. I don't want to be judged on 760 00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:59,279 Speaker 2: how I faithfully serve even our built ready community. No, 761 00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:02,920 Speaker 2: I just I need the merits of Christ. Otherwise I 762 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 2: am damned and I know it. But praise be to God. 763 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,160 Speaker 2: He looks at me and sees Jesus, and it was 764 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:11,040 Speaker 2: his plan from eternity, and so it has nothing to 765 00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:13,040 Speaker 2: do with me. And that's the freedom I need to 766 00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 2: love and obey and worship and being all It's good man. 767 00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:22,040 Speaker 1: I heard a pastor say one time that Jesus. I 768 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:25,360 Speaker 1: think maybe he said God. In this context, God is 769 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:28,719 Speaker 1: waiting at the door, and he will not come in 770 00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:32,160 Speaker 1: because he's a gentleman, and he will come in unless 771 00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:34,400 Speaker 1: you invite him in like a true gentleman. And I 772 00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:37,360 Speaker 1: thought that sounds like an insecure boyfriend. 773 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:39,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, it just. 774 00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:42,120 Speaker 1: Needs acceptance or something. But that's not the way I 775 00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:44,239 Speaker 1: experienced it, and that's not the way any kind of 776 00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:45,400 Speaker 1: language the Bible uses. 777 00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:48,719 Speaker 2: It sounds like a man who doesn't understand the first 778 00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 2: few chapters of Revelation. Those are church doors that the 779 00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:54,840 Speaker 2: Jesus is knocking on and we I mean, I'm in 780 00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:57,480 Speaker 2: the middle of Isaiah right now, and I'm just enamored 781 00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:02,400 Speaker 2: about how many times the Lord of Host, the sovereign, 782 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:06,720 Speaker 2: Lord of heavenly armies, full command of everything, and everyone says, 783 00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:10,960 Speaker 2: I will, I will, I will you and me straying 784 00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:14,799 Speaker 2: and disobedience, I will. I'm gonna open your eyes. I'm 785 00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:16,320 Speaker 2: going to bring you home. I'm going to give you 786 00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:19,680 Speaker 2: a heart that once repents, once repentance and draws near 787 00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:22,640 Speaker 2: to me. Right to think about this, you know, it's 788 00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:25,280 Speaker 2: like the Jesus comes he's thrown out of life booie, 789 00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:28,160 Speaker 2: and all you got to do is grab it. I 790 00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:30,280 Speaker 2: have so many men in my life that I love 791 00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:33,600 Speaker 2: so dearly that still to the day use that. 792 00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:36,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, and yet I'm like, tell the real analogy. 793 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:38,560 Speaker 2: Where do you see it in scripture? 794 00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:39,960 Speaker 1: Tell the real analogy of that. 795 00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:43,640 Speaker 2: We're dead men, We're at the bottom of the ocean, right, Well, 796 00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:44,200 Speaker 2: we're just dead. 797 00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:45,399 Speaker 1: We can't grab it life. 798 00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:47,719 Speaker 2: But yeah, but for me, it's like I'm not in 799 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:51,440 Speaker 2: the ocean. I'm I'm flooded in my sin. I loved 800 00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:55,479 Speaker 2: my sexual immorality. I loved my arrogance. I loved only 801 00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:58,520 Speaker 2: thinking about me. I loved lying, and I was great 802 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:02,400 Speaker 2: at it. I loved all these things. They were my idols, 803 00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:06,319 Speaker 2: and yet they were crushing me. And God said, that's 804 00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:09,120 Speaker 2: my boy. I'm gonna go rescue him, and here's how 805 00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:11,680 Speaker 2: I'm gonna do it. And it's gonna look like utter 806 00:41:11,840 --> 00:41:15,600 Speaker 2: chaos and catastrophe, but you know what, he's gonna know 807 00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:18,640 Speaker 2: that I am God. And then I saved his soul, 808 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:21,160 Speaker 2: and then I love him and it has nothing to 809 00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:23,800 Speaker 2: do with him, So that Heath Evans will never boast 810 00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:25,520 Speaker 2: in himself ever, ever, again. 811 00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:27,160 Speaker 1: I think I just got saved again. 812 00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:29,560 Speaker 2: Man, No, it's not true. He saved he saved us 813 00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:30,440 Speaker 2: before he made all this. 814 00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:37,160 Speaker 1: Man, I didn't know it to that, to that full extent. 815 00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:39,239 Speaker 1: I didn't know your story.

Right, 925 00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:54,440 Speaker 2: But any supplement in and of itself is not going 926 00:47:54,480 --> 00:47:56,279 Speaker 2: to rescue anyone. So we want to teach people how 927 00:47:56,320 --> 00:47:58,799 Speaker 2: to eat and how to think better about food. We've 928 00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:01,680 Speaker 2: been lied to, you know, you know, I don't know 929 00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:06,160 Speaker 2: RFK personally, but he's opening people's eyes to the lies 930 00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:08,840 Speaker 2: and deception that our country has been under around nutrition, 931 00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:12,120 Speaker 2: and so we just want to help people.

Right. 934 00:48:16,920 --> 00:48:19,279 Speaker 2: A lot of people buy cheaper stuff from China. I 935 00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:21,640 Speaker 2: would advise everyone not to.

Women, if you're here in 938 00:48:26,560 --> 00:48:29,000 Speaker 2: my voice, this is the best thing in the world 939 00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:31,560 Speaker 2: that we can do for our women. The number one 940 00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:34,520 Speaker 2: marker Launey. I know, right, because it's always been well, 941 00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:37,560 Speaker 2: this is the meathead supplement to get stronger, which it is. 942 00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:41,359 Speaker 2: But what is the number one marker for longevity? God 943 00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:43,800 Speaker 2: is sovereign over all our days. Our days are written 944 00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:46,160 Speaker 2: in his book, right, But we have enough science and 945 00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:49,560 Speaker 2: true knowledge now to know that the stronger someone is, 946 00:48:49,719 --> 00:48:52,080 Speaker 2: the longer they live. We look at COVID in twenty 947 00:48:52,239 --> 00:48:54,560 Speaker 2: twenty one twenty two. Who are the people that were 948 00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:58,240 Speaker 2: least affected, the strongest people, not the people with the best, 949 00:48:58,360 --> 00:49:00,440 Speaker 2: you know, body mass index, not the people that were 950 00:49:00,440 --> 00:49:03,440 Speaker 2: the most cardiovascular sound. Those are important, but the number 951 00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:07,200 Speaker 2: one marker was how strong is someone physically right? Male 952 00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:10,040 Speaker 2: and female? And they were basically unphased in a lot 953 00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:13,560 Speaker 2: of ways by COVID. And so creatine has so many 954 00:49:13,600 --> 00:49:17,960 Speaker 2: biomarkers just for women's mental health, helping them battle just 955 00:49:18,040 --> 00:49:22,040 Speaker 2: anxiousness and depression. We're seeing high dosage of creatine now 956 00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:25,239 Speaker 2: used in women's seventy plus that are alzheimer patients or 957 00:49:25,239 --> 00:49:29,000 Speaker 2: dementia patients, and they're actually reversing the effects, the memory 958 00:49:29,040 --> 00:49:31,960 Speaker 2: loss effects from this wicked disease. And so yes, it 959 00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:34,839 Speaker 2: will help you sustain and build muscle. Who wouldn't want 960 00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:38,520 Speaker 2: to do that, right?

It 985 00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:37,359 Speaker 2: was like premium gas, right, like, your bitch is going 986 00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:39,880 Speaker 2: to go up twenty pounds in like one shot of 987 00:50:39,920 --> 00:50:41,640 Speaker 2: this thing, right right. My dad's I was like, I'm 988 00:50:41,640 --> 00:50:43,080 Speaker 2: not sure what's in that. I don't know we'd be 989 00:50:43,120 --> 00:50:46,239 Speaker 2: taking that stuff, right, But creating you know, people knew, Hey, 990 00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:48,560 Speaker 2: this is what it is. It's already in good steak, right, 991 00:50:48,600 --> 00:50:50,440 Speaker 2: It's in some of our food. Our body needs it, 992 00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:52,400 Speaker 2: we have creatine, we need it for our brains, we 993 00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:54,400 Speaker 2: need it for all kinds of things, right, and so 994 00:50:54,760 --> 00:50:57,560 Speaker 2: it's always kind of been one of those more acceptable things. 995 00:50:57,800 --> 00:51:00,000 Speaker 2: But just recently in the last few years, we've started 996 00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:03,680 Speaker 2: to see the scientific data about brain health and cognitive 997 00:51:03,840 --> 00:51:11,800 Speaker 2: function as well as cognitive repair, the epidemic of mental health, 998 00:51:12,840 --> 00:51:18,319 Speaker 2: especially against our females. Right, Christy and I want so 999 00:51:18,520 --> 00:51:24,040 Speaker 2: badly to teach people the benefits of spirit filled self 1000 00:51:24,080 --> 00:51:27,560 Speaker 2: control around eating and what we put in our bodies, 1001 00:51:28,360 --> 00:51:32,080 Speaker 2: because for the glory of God, God loves to heal people. Right, 1002 00:51:33,040 --> 00:51:35,880 Speaker 2: we have not because we ask not. There is no 1003 00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:39,400 Speaker 2: rhyme or reason to how Jesus chooses to bless some 1004 00:51:39,520 --> 00:51:42,359 Speaker 2: with healing and others and not. But what we know 1005 00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:45,879 Speaker 2: is that when godly men and women will just kind 1006 00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:49,719 Speaker 2: of follow Paul's outline about disciplining their bodies and not 1007 00:51:49,840 --> 00:51:53,160 Speaker 2: just beating the air aimlessly, but having a rhythm and 1008 00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:56,960 Speaker 2: some thought out structure to how do we eat, how 1009 00:51:56,960 --> 00:52:00,399 Speaker 2: do we sleep? How do we hydrate? This there's some 1010 00:52:00,640 --> 00:52:03,760 Speaker 2: value that we can get out of bodily training, bodily 1011 00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:07,320 Speaker 2: training about in righteousness and all these things. But but 1012 00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:11,600 Speaker 2: also like, hey, if this is the temple, right, and 1013 00:52:11,640 --> 00:52:13,319 Speaker 2: I don't ever want this to be a message of 1014 00:52:13,360 --> 00:52:17,080 Speaker 2: condemnation to anyone that's overweight or underweight, right, we just 1015 00:52:17,120 --> 00:52:19,640 Speaker 2: want to love people. Well, right, I don't know what 1016 00:52:19,680 --> 00:52:22,279 Speaker 2: it's like to be overweight. Kind of just always been 1017 00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:23,759 Speaker 2: in shape. I joked that I was a little fat, 1018 00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:25,920 Speaker 2: chubby kid from Palm Beach, Florida. I kind of was. 1019 00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:28,360 Speaker 2: I was a little slow, and then that motivated me 1020 00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:30,479 Speaker 2: to get faster, and then God made an NFL career 1021 00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:32,520 Speaker 2: out of it. Right, But my wife used to weigh 1022 00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:35,800 Speaker 2: almost three hundred pounds, and so she's felt the burden 1023 00:52:36,239 --> 00:52:39,600 Speaker 2: of being unsaved. Yeah, chrissy, Yeah, your face is it 1024 00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:43,400 Speaker 2: all right? Right? And so does right? You know what 1025 00:52:43,440 --> 00:52:45,960 Speaker 2: I mean? And so and before the Lord saved her, 1026 00:52:46,040 --> 00:52:47,960 Speaker 2: you know, she had built this massive business called weight 1027 00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:50,439 Speaker 2: loss hero, helping people for all the wrong reasons. God 1028 00:52:50,480 --> 00:52:52,560 Speaker 2: does his great, miraculous work in her life. And she's like, 1029 00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:54,400 Speaker 2: I just can't coach women like this. I got to 1030 00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:56,040 Speaker 2: coach him to get healthy for the glory of God. 1031 00:52:56,080 --> 00:52:57,680 Speaker 2: And now we just kind of do this stuff together. 1032 00:52:58,520 --> 00:53:02,640 Speaker 2: But the freedom around discipline, right, it's a good thing. 1033 00:53:03,480 --> 00:53:06,399 Speaker 2: And God has commanded us to be of sober mind, right, 1034 00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:08,320 Speaker 2: And that's not just oh, let me be sober minded 1035 00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:12,040 Speaker 2: in just these areas of righteousness, right, But look at 1036 00:53:12,080 --> 00:53:15,560 Speaker 2: this practical wisdom God's given us. Right. And then, oh, 1037 00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:18,680 Speaker 2: it's amazing, how much more rich my quiet time is 1038 00:53:18,719 --> 00:53:21,280 Speaker 2: in the morning, when I'm hydrated from the day before. 1039 00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:25,399 Speaker 2: It's amazing, how much more I remember right when I'm 1040 00:53:25,440 --> 00:53:28,719 Speaker 2: eating more clean It's amazing. How much more energy I 1041 00:53:28,760 --> 00:53:31,960 Speaker 2: have to love and serve my husband. It's amazing, how 1042 00:53:32,040 --> 00:53:34,640 Speaker 2: much more stamin I have as a father to get 1043 00:53:34,640 --> 00:53:36,360 Speaker 2: out and wrestle around with the boys and throw them 1044 00:53:36,400 --> 00:53:38,400 Speaker 2: around in the pool, and work out and love my 1045 00:53:38,440 --> 00:53:40,279 Speaker 2: wife and go to work for nine hours a day 1046 00:53:41,280 --> 00:53:46,160 Speaker 2: with food and proper nutrition and hydration and proper rest. 1047 00:53:46,560 --> 00:53:49,680 Speaker 2: Prioritizing the right thing based on the sound word of 1048 00:53:49,719 --> 00:53:52,160 Speaker 2: the Lord gives us so much freedom. And so we 1049 00:53:52,200 --> 00:53:54,640 Speaker 2: want to help people with teaching them how to eat 1050 00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:58,239 Speaker 2: and with these supplements that we think are necessary for 1051 00:53:58,320 --> 00:54:02,040 Speaker 2: everyone to be taking creating and collagen. 1052 00:54:02,360 --> 00:54:02,560 Speaker 1: Right. 1053 00:54:02,760 --> 00:54:04,920 Speaker 2: We want to help people burn the right fat. We 1054 00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:07,480 Speaker 2: have a visceral fat is the fat around your organs 1055 00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:11,080 Speaker 2: that kills you. There's very few clinical studies on supplementation 1056 00:54:11,440 --> 00:54:14,759 Speaker 2: that will actually burn visceral fat. We have one of them. 1057 00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:17,120 Speaker 2: It's called a night and it's awesome. It's great for 1058 00:54:17,160 --> 00:54:19,640 Speaker 2: your brain. It's like a nice little nootropic punch to 1059 00:54:20,280 --> 00:54:21,920 Speaker 2: your head in the morning when you want to study 1060 00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:24,319 Speaker 2: God's word on an empty stomach. It's just there's so 1061 00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:27,080 Speaker 2: many good benefits to it. And then we want to 1062 00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:29,840 Speaker 2: help people get hydrated. Any good doctor is going to 1063 00:54:29,840 --> 00:54:32,360 Speaker 2: probably tell you about ninety percent of chronic disease is 1064 00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:35,680 Speaker 2: caused by chronic dehydration. God meant our bodies to be 1065 00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:39,359 Speaker 2: fueled with vitamins and minerals and nutrients and protein that 1066 00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:42,920 Speaker 2: we just don't get. But if we do, it's amazing 1067 00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:46,279 Speaker 2: how fast our bodies will heal themselves. When God said 1068 00:54:46,280 --> 00:54:49,400 Speaker 2: we are fearfully and wonderfully made, he didn't stutter. And 1069 00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:54,160 Speaker 2: so we pollute this system and our food is either 1070 00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:57,560 Speaker 2: you know, it's poisoned to us or it's medicine to us. 1071 00:54:57,960 --> 00:54:59,759 Speaker 2: We want to point people to, hey, this is how 1072 00:54:59,760 --> 00:55:02,240 Speaker 2: we this is how we kind of heal our body 1073 00:55:02,320 --> 00:55:05,799 Speaker 2: by God's grace, strengthen ourselves for the war that is, 1074 00:55:06,280 --> 00:55:08,760 Speaker 2: walking in righteousness and walking in the love of Christ. 1075 00:55:09,200 --> 00:55:12,920 Speaker 1: That is the best biblical argument for healthy living that 1076 00:55:13,040 --> 00:55:13,680 Speaker 1: I've ever heard. 1077 00:55:13,880 --> 00:55:16,200 Speaker 2: When it's time. That's why I bought from you, Praise 1078 00:55:16,200 --> 00:55:18,040 Speaker 2: the Lord. And I tell our men all the time, 1079 00:55:18,080 --> 00:55:21,520 Speaker 2: it is really really hard to make much of Christ 1080 00:55:21,800 --> 00:55:25,120 Speaker 2: and make much of the body it is, and so 1081 00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:28,400 Speaker 2: so we have to we have to so look at 1082 00:55:28,480 --> 00:55:33,600 Speaker 2: Jesus to know why we're going to discipline this body. Right, 1083 00:55:35,120 --> 00:55:37,520 Speaker 2: Spurgeon's days were numbered. He lived in a day where 1084 00:55:37,520 --> 00:55:39,400 Speaker 2: there wasn't a lot of medicine. He got what fifty 1085 00:55:39,440 --> 00:55:42,919 Speaker 2: six fifty four years, and God miraculously used him. Now, 1086 00:55:42,960 --> 00:55:46,200 Speaker 2: by God's grace, we live much longer. And I'm not 1087 00:55:46,239 --> 00:55:48,400 Speaker 2: saying that we're ever going to live longer than what 1088 00:55:48,440 --> 00:55:50,719 Speaker 2: God is determined. But I am saying that if we 1089 00:55:50,760 --> 00:55:53,719 Speaker 2: eat well, my days on this earth will be more 1090 00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:56,319 Speaker 2: energized for the Kingdom of Christ than they would be 1091 00:55:56,360 --> 00:55:59,760 Speaker 2: if I'm not disciplining myself in that way? Is it selvific? 1092 00:56:00,320 --> 00:56:03,160 Speaker 2: I don't want anyone to feel condemned that people are 1093 00:56:03,640 --> 00:56:05,440 Speaker 2: just run into more and more weak sheep that are 1094 00:56:05,520 --> 00:56:08,120 Speaker 2: just burdened by just these sins. It's like they struggle 1095 00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:09,680 Speaker 2: with inshirts. And I don't ever want to go down 1096 00:56:09,680 --> 00:56:11,920 Speaker 2: that route. But I do think that even some of 1097 00:56:11,960 --> 00:56:15,719 Speaker 2: our brothers and sisters in Christ that do wrestle with assurance, 1098 00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:20,640 Speaker 2: if by God's grace, they could discipline themselves to eat better, 1099 00:56:21,160 --> 00:56:23,840 Speaker 2: they will think more clearly about the word of truth, 1100 00:56:24,280 --> 00:56:26,239 Speaker 2: and that word of truth will be revealed to them 1101 00:56:26,280 --> 00:56:28,480 Speaker 2: in a new refreshing way where they can think more 1102 00:56:28,480 --> 00:56:31,120 Speaker 2: clearly and their brain is not so foggy and their 1103 00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:33,960 Speaker 2: body is not so beat down by constantly what they're 1104 00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:34,759 Speaker 2: shoving into it. 1105 00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:39,080 Speaker 1: You talked about it's good for your gut to and 1106 00:56:39,120 --> 00:56:42,120 Speaker 1: by the way, this is by no means is this 1107 00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:45,279 Speaker 1: ay infomercial for vice Sarah. I didn't want it to 1108 00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:47,200 Speaker 1: be that way. I don't want it to appear that way, 1109 00:56:48,280 --> 00:56:50,319 Speaker 1: and that's not why you came. So I don't want 1110 00:56:50,280 --> 00:56:52,680 Speaker 1: anyone to think that. So let me say this without 1111 00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:57,040 Speaker 1: sounding like an infomercial. I've had creatine that has really 1112 00:56:57,080 --> 00:57:01,240 Speaker 1: messed up my stomach before. Yours doesn't. Your protein doesn't, 1113 00:57:01,600 --> 00:57:05,319 Speaker 1: and it tastes good. You're like sourcing cattle from all 1114 00:57:05,360 --> 00:57:09,759 Speaker 1: over the world. Are you really serious about it being 1115 00:57:09,840 --> 00:57:10,640 Speaker 1: healthy for you? 1116 00:57:10,800 --> 00:57:14,319 Speaker 2: Yeah. I was taught by Bill Belichick there's always someone 1117 00:57:14,360 --> 00:57:16,360 Speaker 2: that's better, There's always someone that knows more. There's always 1118 00:57:16,360 --> 00:57:18,120 Speaker 2: someone that's gonna kick your butt, right, so you need 1119 00:57:18,120 --> 00:57:21,800 Speaker 2: to prepare to meet that person. Right. So when building 1120 00:57:21,840 --> 00:57:24,800 Speaker 2: by Sarah, we wanted the best, and by God's grace 1121 00:57:24,880 --> 00:57:27,360 Speaker 2: through the years in the NFL and just other relationships 1122 00:57:27,360 --> 00:57:30,440 Speaker 2: he's given me. I know some of the best people 1123 00:57:30,480 --> 00:57:33,320 Speaker 2: in the organic supplement space in the world. My buddy 1124 00:57:34,640 --> 00:57:39,120 Speaker 2: who has basically sold two massive companies, you know, one 1125 00:57:39,200 --> 00:57:42,439 Speaker 2: Nestley now owns. So we won't go into a price 1126 00:57:42,480 --> 00:57:45,280 Speaker 2: that's sold for, but he has done it as the 1127 00:57:45,400 --> 00:57:47,160 Speaker 2: king in that space. And so I went directly to 1128 00:57:47,240 --> 00:57:49,720 Speaker 2: him and said, how do we do this? Or it 1129 00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:52,439 Speaker 2: tastes good, but we can look people in the eye 1130 00:57:52,480 --> 00:57:55,000 Speaker 2: and say, hey, our sourcing is better than anyone and 1131 00:57:55,160 --> 00:57:58,560 Speaker 2: you know our bovine glandulars right. So it's like this 1132 00:57:58,680 --> 00:58:01,120 Speaker 2: idea that like heels like. So, we have so many 1133 00:58:01,160 --> 00:58:03,560 Speaker 2: thyroid issues, we have so many digestive track issues, we 1134 00:58:03,600 --> 00:58:05,840 Speaker 2: have so many heart issues, we have so many issues 1135 00:58:06,160 --> 00:58:09,400 Speaker 2: that are health related because of food. And yet from 1136 00:58:09,440 --> 00:58:11,840 Speaker 2: the beginning of time God created these animals to be 1137 00:58:11,920 --> 00:58:14,280 Speaker 2: under our dominion and for us to eat them, to 1138 00:58:14,320 --> 00:58:18,040 Speaker 2: be healthy and strong for His glory and to magnify 1139 00:58:18,120 --> 00:58:20,400 Speaker 2: his name. And so if you look on the side 1140 00:58:20,440 --> 00:58:22,000 Speaker 2: of all of our bottles, you're going to see these 1141 00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:24,360 Speaker 2: little glandulars. You're gonna see heart, you're gonna see kidney, 1142 00:58:24,400 --> 00:58:28,200 Speaker 2: you'll see thyroid. It's amazing when we eat God's food 1143 00:58:28,520 --> 00:58:31,400 Speaker 2: and we supplement God's food, how the body will just 1144 00:58:31,480 --> 00:58:34,200 Speaker 2: kind of heal itself. And so we've given people the 1145 00:58:34,240 --> 00:58:36,680 Speaker 2: purest A two protein. You talk about our creatine not 1146 00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:39,600 Speaker 2: upsetting your stomach, Well, it's well sourced, right, And there's 1147 00:58:39,640 --> 00:58:41,600 Speaker 2: not some crap from China. I'm not knocking to anybody 1148 00:58:41,640 --> 00:58:44,560 Speaker 2: from China. But our system is set up to make 1149 00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:47,160 Speaker 2: money and give people as little amount as we can 1150 00:58:47,240 --> 00:58:49,360 Speaker 2: to kind of pass this bar or metric that makes 1151 00:58:49,360 --> 00:58:52,120 Speaker 2: it legal. Right. We haven't done that, right, And so 1152 00:58:52,440 --> 00:58:54,640 Speaker 2: our third party testing everything that we have kind of 1153 00:58:54,680 --> 00:58:56,880 Speaker 2: spent money on is to say, hey, listen, we want 1154 00:58:56,880 --> 00:58:59,720 Speaker 2: to represent God with integrity.

Not only does 1164 00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:30,200 Speaker 2: grains or think better, but you sleep better, you perform better, 1165 00:59:30,440 --> 00:59:34,480 Speaker 2: you feel stronger, there's more energy, everything about you improves. 1166 00:59:35,160 --> 00:59:38,880 Speaker 2: This is really brain number one. Brain number one, guide's 1167 00:59:38,920 --> 00:59:42,040 Speaker 2: brain number two. God has fiercefully and wonderly, wonderfully made us. 1168 00:59:42,040 --> 00:59:44,040 Speaker 2: So brain number two is always gonna be working. 1169 00:59:45,160 --> 00:59:46,400 Speaker 1: Your head depends on your gut. 1170 00:59:46,560 --> 00:59:49,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, so what we have to make fuels right, and 1171 00:59:49,960 --> 00:59:53,880 Speaker 2: so listen, I know it. I love donuts. I'm the 1172 00:59:53,960 --> 00:59:56,880 Speaker 2: donut king, right, but when I eat too many donuts, 1173 00:59:56,920 --> 00:59:59,400 Speaker 2: this brain is bad. And I can't afford this brain 1174 00:59:59,440 --> 01:00:00,840 Speaker 2: to be bad. I had too many kids and I 1175 01:00:00,880 --> 01:00:02,760 Speaker 2: got a big king Jesus to love and serve well. 1176 01:00:02,760 --> 01:00:04,720 Speaker 2: So I needed to be sharp and accurate and on 1177 01:00:04,760 --> 01:00:07,080 Speaker 2: point and so all these things have in effect, and 1178 01:00:07,120 --> 01:00:10,160 Speaker 2: we just want to gently teach people that hey, we 1179 01:00:10,240 --> 01:00:13,840 Speaker 2: can feel good and we can have all of God's 1180 01:00:13,920 --> 01:00:15,960 Speaker 2: energy and everything that God's intended for us. And this 1181 01:00:16,000 --> 01:00:18,840 Speaker 2: isn't no health, wealth and prosperity nonsense either, because I 1182 01:00:18,880 --> 01:00:20,360 Speaker 2: don't know. God might have for you to get hit 1183 01:00:20,360 --> 01:00:23,520 Speaker 2: by a train tomorrow. But at the end of the day, 1184 01:00:24,120 --> 01:00:26,800 Speaker 2: if God has gifted us with breath and we have 1185 01:00:26,920 --> 01:00:30,400 Speaker 2: the ability to eat better food and to move our bodies, 1186 01:00:30,800 --> 01:00:32,640 Speaker 2: we need to be doing so for the glory of God. 1187 01:00:33,920 --> 01:00:40,360 Speaker 1: I think. I think it's a great humble argument, and 1188 01:00:40,440 --> 01:00:43,640 Speaker 1: it's practical. If I get up for an early flight 1189 01:00:43,960 --> 01:00:46,200 Speaker 1: and I went to bed at midnight and I have 1190 01:00:46,200 --> 01:00:49,560 Speaker 1: to be at the airport at four, and I've learned 1191 01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:52,960 Speaker 1: it took a long time to finally realize, don't make 1192 01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:56,640 Speaker 1: any decisions on this day. Don't make any moral decisions, 1193 01:00:56,640 --> 01:00:59,960 Speaker 1: don't make any financial decisions, don't make any judgments on people. 1194 01:01:00,200 --> 01:01:04,960 Speaker 1: That's because you were You're drunk. Really, I want to 1195 01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:07,800 Speaker 1: go one more place with you because you mentioned earlier 1196 01:01:07,800 --> 01:01:11,120 Speaker 1: you're in Isaiah. Is that what you said? Yeah, So 1197 01:01:12,160 --> 01:01:16,760 Speaker 1: if we put all maybe put everything together on a 1198 01:01:16,840 --> 01:01:19,040 Speaker 1: on a good I know that you're a busy guide, 1199 01:01:19,040 --> 01:01:22,160 Speaker 1: so that things change and you have to adjust wisely 1200 01:01:22,360 --> 01:01:25,919 Speaker 1: in when it changes. But on a good, normal day, 1201 01:01:26,960 --> 01:01:30,240 Speaker 1: what does your reading look like? When is it? How 1202 01:01:30,280 --> 01:01:32,440 Speaker 1: are you? 1203 01:01:32,280 --> 01:01:34,240 Speaker 2: You know? Mark Dever? So I'm gonna throw Mark Dever 1204 01:01:34,360 --> 01:01:40,840 Speaker 2: under the busk, yeah, yeah a for clarity. Mark Dever 1205 01:01:43,840 --> 01:01:49,040 Speaker 2: is the godliest, most faithful man I know, and other 1206 01:01:49,080 --> 01:01:53,040 Speaker 2: than Christ and my wife and children, he has been 1207 01:01:53,080 --> 01:01:59,800 Speaker 2: God's greatest gift to me, and he has so guided 1208 01:01:59,880 --> 01:02:02,560 Speaker 2: in guarded me and all of my strengths and weaknesses, 1209 01:02:02,960 --> 01:02:04,000 Speaker 2: mainly weaknesses. 1210 01:02:05,040 --> 01:02:07,040 Speaker 1: He introduced us, by the way, that's right, sure you 1211 01:02:07,120 --> 01:02:07,960 Speaker 1: introduced us. 1212 01:02:08,440 --> 01:02:11,320 Speaker 2: So since the word saved me. Most mornings, I've been 1213 01:02:11,400 --> 01:02:15,720 Speaker 2: up at four am. And if you walk into wherever 1214 01:02:15,760 --> 01:02:17,920 Speaker 2: I'm reading most of the time, it's my wife's office. 1215 01:02:18,760 --> 01:02:20,360 Speaker 2: All the lights are going to be off except for 1216 01:02:20,400 --> 01:02:22,960 Speaker 2: one lamp and one like spotlight that we use for 1217 01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:26,600 Speaker 2: filming content, and it's just fixed on my Bible. I'm 1218 01:02:26,640 --> 01:02:30,439 Speaker 2: the add king. I really struggle. I struggle to read 1219 01:02:30,520 --> 01:02:37,280 Speaker 2: and comprehend. I dyslo I understand things backwards. I read 1220 01:02:37,360 --> 01:02:40,000 Speaker 2: at a very high rate, but I understand very little, 1221 01:02:40,160 --> 01:02:42,680 Speaker 2: and so it takes me a long time, and it's 1222 01:02:42,680 --> 01:02:47,080 Speaker 2: often frustrating. But God has worked wonders and sanctifying me 1223 01:02:47,160 --> 01:02:50,360 Speaker 2: through having to sacrifice a lot of hours of sleep 1224 01:02:50,400 --> 01:02:52,960 Speaker 2: to draw near to Him. And not everyone needs to 1225 01:02:53,000 --> 01:02:54,800 Speaker 2: do that. Most people, for what I would read in 1226 01:02:54,840 --> 01:02:56,800 Speaker 2: a three hour time, they might be able to get 1227 01:02:56,800 --> 01:02:58,840 Speaker 2: it in in forty five minutes, right, and they might 1228 01:02:58,840 --> 01:03:02,160 Speaker 2: retain a lot more. I don't know, but that's been 1229 01:03:02,200 --> 01:03:05,040 Speaker 2: my habit, that those first two and a half three 1230 01:03:05,080 --> 01:03:08,360 Speaker 2: hours of every morning are just the Lord's and He 1231 01:03:08,440 --> 01:03:12,080 Speaker 2: has poured his word into my heart. Sometimes I remember 1232 01:03:12,120 --> 01:03:15,760 Speaker 2: it better than others, but he faithfully pours it out 1233 01:03:15,760 --> 01:03:19,440 Speaker 2: of me when he gives me an opportunity to boast 1234 01:03:19,440 --> 01:03:22,640 Speaker 2: in him. And I said, I was gonna throw Mark 1235 01:03:22,720 --> 01:03:26,000 Speaker 2: under the bus because in the last few weeks have 1236 01:03:26,280 --> 01:03:29,480 Speaker 2: gone through some just testing and different things. There's certain 1237 01:03:29,480 --> 01:03:31,880 Speaker 2: things mentally or I don't know if they're starting to 1238 01:03:31,880 --> 01:03:33,760 Speaker 2: slip or if we're just too busy, but we have 1239 01:03:33,800 --> 01:03:36,160 Speaker 2: all these concussion testing for the NFL and all this stuff. 1240 01:03:36,200 --> 01:03:38,400 Speaker 2: So I told Mark about it, and he was just 1241 01:03:38,440 --> 01:03:40,760 Speaker 2: put chrissy on the phone because he knows I won't listen. 1242 01:03:41,200 --> 01:03:44,320 Speaker 2: So he said Chrissy. This is what he's going to do. 1243 01:03:45,560 --> 01:03:48,080 Speaker 2: Whatever amount of time Heath reads his Bible, he's going 1244 01:03:48,120 --> 01:03:50,600 Speaker 2: to do half of it. Right, He's not going to 1245 01:03:50,680 --> 01:03:54,480 Speaker 2: cut his prayer time down. But whatever time he's reading 1246 01:03:54,480 --> 01:03:56,200 Speaker 2: his Bible, you're gonna make him cut it in half. 1247 01:03:56,200 --> 01:03:58,480 Speaker 2: And you're gonna make him sleep. You know that much 1248 01:03:58,560 --> 01:04:02,720 Speaker 2: more well, Mark nos So I've been the last I 1249 01:04:02,760 --> 01:04:06,120 Speaker 2: think three weeks now, I've been sleeping until five. I 1250 01:04:06,160 --> 01:04:08,200 Speaker 2: get up and I go in there and I just 1251 01:04:09,080 --> 01:04:12,800 Speaker 2: I hit my knees. I always start. I need help 1252 01:04:14,840 --> 01:04:18,200 Speaker 2: positioning my mind in humility, and so I pick up 1253 01:04:18,240 --> 01:04:20,400 Speaker 2: this book called Valley of Vision. I'm sure you've heard 1254 01:04:20,400 --> 01:04:21,000 Speaker 2: of it. 1255 01:04:21,080 --> 01:04:23,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's always in somewhere. It's always in the next 1256 01:04:23,600 --> 01:04:25,320 Speaker 1: room over for me. 1257 01:04:25,560 --> 01:04:30,800 Speaker 2: And most days it stirs my heart with affections for 1258 01:04:30,920 --> 01:04:34,240 Speaker 2: Christ because I see my sin more clearly. And then 1259 01:04:34,480 --> 01:04:37,520 Speaker 2: that'll lead me into praying for Chrissy. I have a 1260 01:04:37,560 --> 01:04:40,120 Speaker 2: list that I pray for every day, and then praying 1261 01:04:40,120 --> 01:04:44,919 Speaker 2: for the children, praying for myself. These last few weeks, 1262 01:04:44,920 --> 01:04:47,320 Speaker 2: I have not been praying as faithfully for our church, 1263 01:04:47,360 --> 01:04:49,800 Speaker 2: but through our church membership. Because Mark Dever took an 1264 01:04:49,840 --> 01:04:54,480 Speaker 2: hour away from my holy sanctification. But yeah, those morning 1265 01:04:54,520 --> 01:04:57,920 Speaker 2: hours have been sweet, you know, since twenty eighteen. And 1266 01:04:59,520 --> 01:05:02,760 Speaker 2: you just all the godly dead dudes that we love, 1267 01:05:04,480 --> 01:05:06,600 Speaker 2: they didn't even have half of them, didn't have electricity 1268 01:05:06,680 --> 01:05:09,120 Speaker 2: to run, lights to read, but they were still up 1269 01:05:09,120 --> 01:05:12,560 Speaker 2: in the wee hours of morning under candle light, reading 1270 01:05:12,600 --> 01:05:16,080 Speaker 2: and meditating on God's word. God was faithful to them, 1271 01:05:16,640 --> 01:05:21,720 Speaker 2: and he helped them finish strong, and their lives just 1272 01:05:21,920 --> 01:05:25,000 Speaker 2: oozed Jesus Christ and I believe it was because of 1273 01:05:25,040 --> 01:05:26,959 Speaker 2: their prayer time and their Bible study time. 1274 01:05:27,560 --> 01:05:29,960 Speaker 1: I've never talked to you about that, and I never 1275 01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:33,280 Speaker 1: heard you say that before, but I already was positive 1276 01:05:33,920 --> 01:05:37,560 Speaker 1: that that would be your answer. And you're right. You know, 1277 01:05:37,720 --> 01:05:42,160 Speaker 1: George Mueller, for a long time he would he would 1278 01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:45,800 Speaker 1: get up and pray and read, and he realized his 1279 01:05:45,800 --> 01:05:49,640 Speaker 1: prayer life was dead until he switched the two that 1280 01:05:49,560 --> 01:05:54,160 Speaker 1: the Bible the Scripture softened his cold dead heart and 1281 01:05:54,280 --> 01:05:58,400 Speaker 1: every morning and supercharged it so that then his prayer 1282 01:05:58,400 --> 01:06:01,560 Speaker 1: life came alive. Are you brushing your teeth before you 1283 01:06:01,600 --> 01:06:04,560 Speaker 1: do this? You got coffee? What's what's going on? 1284 01:06:04,960 --> 01:06:09,760 Speaker 2: I take our nite and our creatine collagen, caffeine so 1285 01:06:09,800 --> 01:06:12,240 Speaker 2: I'm putting good, good stuff in my system. I've never 1286 01:06:12,240 --> 01:06:13,000 Speaker 2: been a coffee guy. 1287 01:06:13,080 --> 01:06:14,400 Speaker 1: Just before you open the Bible. 1288 01:06:14,560 --> 01:06:17,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, So when that alarm goes off, I wear these 1289 01:06:17,880 --> 01:06:20,240 Speaker 2: stupid retainers to keep my teeth draight, you know what 1290 01:06:20,280 --> 01:06:21,480 Speaker 2: I mean.

It really helps me focus in. And then 1301 01:06:45,760 --> 01:06:48,520 Speaker 2: I lock in. Yeah, and then I lock in. Uh, 1302 01:06:48,600 --> 01:06:50,919 Speaker 2: I lock in for a few hours and worship the Lord. 1303 01:06:51,520 --> 01:06:55,360 Speaker 1: I was in a men's conference one time in Montana 1304 01:06:55,400 --> 01:06:58,200 Speaker 1: and I did a poll on that question. You're in 1305 01:06:58,200 --> 01:07:01,400 Speaker 1: the majority. People typically would brush their teeth after their 1306 01:07:01,480 --> 01:07:04,360 Speaker 1: quiet time for some reason.
