1
00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:06,159
Speaker 1: It's that time, time, time.

2
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:13,400
Speaker 2: Time, luck and load. So Michael very Show is.

3
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:36,440
Speaker 3: On the air, sy and ander. Jesus is calling, calling,

Speaker 3: are you and for me? Se on the boards, He's

5
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:57,720
Speaker 3: waiting and watching, watching for you and for me.

6
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 4: Come home, come home, he who are weary, come home,

7
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:32,040
Speaker 4: ernestly tender Jesus is calling, calling both centers come home.

8
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 3: Why should we terry and Jesus is pleading, leading for

9
00:01:50,720 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 3: you and Barley? Why should weeling and heed not his mercies,

10
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 3: mercies for you and for.

11
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 4: Come home, come home. Ye are weary, come home, arnestly, tenderly.

12
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 3: Jesus is calling, calling bo centers.

13
00:02:43,520 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 4: Come home, come home, come home. Y are weary, come home,

14
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 4: nestly tenery.

15
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:24,640
Speaker 3: Jesus Us is calling, calling Oo sentners come calling, poll

16
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,399
Speaker 3: centers come.

17
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 1: It's crazy, but that's always been our altar call. And

18
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 1: you know, I think of songwriters Billy Joe Shaver, for instance,

19
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 1: or Steve Goodman. It's hard for me to believe that

20
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 1: a human being wrote that song because it feels like

21
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:57,119
Speaker 1: it comes directly from God. But I had to one

22
00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 1: point look up if there was a writer of record

23
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 1: for many of the old time hymns. There's no writer

24
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 1: of record. It wasn't ever it wasn't ever registered, but

25
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: Softly and Tenderly, which was originally Softly, Softly and Tenderly.

26
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 1: Jesus Calling was written by will L. Thompson in eighteen eighty.

27
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 1: He was an American composer. But the reason I tell

28
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 1: you that it's hard for me to imagine a human

29
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 1: being wrote that song. It feels like it came directly

30
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,839
Speaker 1: from God, and it feels like such a direct call

31
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 1: that it is hard to imagine there was a human

32
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 1: being in between there. But it was part of a

33
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 1: collection that he published called Sparkling Gems Numbers one and two.

34
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 1: Is that old fashion or what is that old fashion?

35
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 5: Or what?

36
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 1: Jd Vance, Speaking yesterday, the Vice President of the United States,

37
00:04:56,440 --> 00:05:06,240
Speaker 1: in a moment of a very raw, open, honest confessional, said.

38
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 6: This A little uncomfortable talking about my faith in public.

39
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 6: As much as I loved the Lord and as much

40
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 6: as it was an important part of my life, I

41
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:19,040
Speaker 6: have talked more about Jesus Christ in the past two

42
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:23,599
Speaker 6: weeks than I have my entire time in public life.

43
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 6: And that is an undeniable legacy of the great Charlie Kirk.

44
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 6: You know, he loved God, and because he loved God,

45
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:44,240
Speaker 6: he wanted to understand God's creation and the men and

46
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 6: women made in his image.

47
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 1: The concept of redemption has always been a lot to me,

48
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:58,600
Speaker 1: and it's the powerful message of my Bible that there

49
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 1: is redemption, that there is a place we're going, that

50
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 1: no matter what, there is always the opportunity because we

51
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:17,720
Speaker 1: do all fail. And I can't tell you how many

52
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:22,360
Speaker 1: powerful messages I have heard from people. As I said before,

53
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 1: I believe Charlie Kirk's death will mean he will be

54
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:32,040
Speaker 1: remembered as an evangelist more than a political activist. I

55
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 1: know folks are emailing me. We got to right short

56
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 1: to vote. We had to relax. If you heal the soul,

57
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 1: the elections will follow. Politics is downstream from culture, Andrew

58
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:55,160
Speaker 1: Breitbart said that, and culture is downstream from faith. People

59
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:58,600
Speaker 1: of faith will understand the importance of showing up to vote,

60
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 1: and they will take back our country in every way.

61
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 1: It will give them a strength that they will summon

62
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:14,840
Speaker 1: that they never imagined they had. If folks of faith

63
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:20,119
Speaker 1: populate the land, you won't have to worry about the rest.

64
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 1: So we are offering you an opportunity, our own alter

65
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 1: call to share how you're going to change your life politically, personally, spiritually,

66
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 1: whatever that might be, and be a better father, mother, boss, precinct, chair,

67
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 1: business owner, whatever that may be. Rick seven one three

68
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 1: nine nine nine one thousand. Seven one three nine nine

69
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 1: nine one thousand, Rick Europe, Sir, go ahead.

70
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 2: Good morning, Michael each man, long time, longtime listener and

71
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:57,760
Speaker 2: very nervous.

72
00:07:57,760 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: First colored don't allow people listen to what I go

73
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 1: don't be at all. And Rick, I have to apologize

74
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 1: to you. I I messed up the clock and I

75
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 1: went to you late in the segment. So what I'm

76
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 1: gonna ask you to do is hold one more. We're

77
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 1: gonna go straight to you. Take a deep breath. You

78
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 1: and I are just having a conversation and feel very

79
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 1: very comfortable sharing, and we'll open the phone lines for

80
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 1: the rest of the seven one three nine one thousand.

81
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 1: It was awful nights, So that smart all.

82
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 2: Mister Michael Berry's choke crackers.

83
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 1: My friend messaged me this morning late into the night.

84
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:43,560
Speaker 1: He stayed up too late and was drinking jack and

85
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:47,719
Speaker 1: cokes and apparently he did what most every man has done.

86
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 1: And if you haven't, God bless you, because I can't

87
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:54,319
Speaker 1: join your ranks, and for whatever reason, he peed in

88
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 1: the hallway and he didn't remember it, but he woke

89
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 1: up this morning to his or he was awakened this

90
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 1: morning by his wife asking hypothetically, if one spouse peas

91
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:16,840
Speaker 1: in the hallway overnight, is it the responsibility of the

92
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 1: other spouse to clean up the pee? And he figured

93
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:27,679
Speaker 1: out at that point, humhm, I bet it's not one

94
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 1: of them logic games you play in college. This might

95
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:36,439
Speaker 1: be this might involve me. And since I'm not out

96
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:41,559
Speaker 1: of bed and she gets up before me, that would

97
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 1: mean that if I was up first, I would discover

98
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:48,520
Speaker 1: the pee. But since she was up first, she must

99
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 1: have discovered the pe. And maybe she's saying that I

100
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 1: need to get up and clean up the pee that

101
00:09:54,120 --> 00:10:01,959
Speaker 1: I don't remember. You know, we all all fail on occasion.

102
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 1: And so I gave him a course of action of

103
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: kind gestures to undertake today to win himself back into

104
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:18,760
Speaker 1: her good graces. But apparently he was. He was very

105
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 1: upset since Charlie Kirk assassination and let himself get carried

106
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 1: away in self medicating and it did not end well.

107
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 1: So I don't know how his day is going, but

108
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 1: we shall see Rick, I apologize, good sir, I went

109
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,000
Speaker 1: to you too late in the segment. But now you're up,

110
00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,439
Speaker 1: and now you've had a chance, You've you've had a

111
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 1: chance to breathe and just just go to it. I'm

112
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 1: gonna turn off my microphone.

113
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:49,199
Speaker 2: Just let you go, all right, Michael. One of the

114
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 2: reasons why I'm such a he's probably hear this a lot,

115
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,080
Speaker 2: but we have so much in comment. I'm about five

116
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 2: years older than me. But you know, I grew up

117
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:59,839
Speaker 2: in a central Louisiana and I would say listening to

118
00:10:59,920 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 2: your sayings and mobile stories and growing up through where

119
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 2: you and we used to go through right where you

120
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:07,120
Speaker 2: live to get there. My dad liked to take the

121
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 2: back roads and and uh, I would say without doubt that, uh,

122
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 2: that part of Texas because a lot more in common

123
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 2: would kind of central self than to losing anywhere in Texas.

124
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 2: Your story is about growing up and everything. Now, well,

125
00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 2: I've been my send on this slightly just been fearfulness

126
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 2: in my life's Uh life changed dramatically five years ago,

127
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 2: and it's been the bigiest blessing I've ever been through

128
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 2: itself of in the hardest thing. That's even though I

129
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:41,080
Speaker 2: know you know that God's gotten me through so much stuff.

130
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,560
Speaker 2: I mean from mom and Dad and both my older brothers.

131
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 2: God really young and well, I was more in tune

132
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:54,719
Speaker 2: with God and listen to it more, you know, metricity,

133
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,000
Speaker 2: and I could see how He was helping me and

134
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:01,840
Speaker 2: the miracles He would in my way to just kind

135
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:05,080
Speaker 2: of tap me on the shoulder, say, you know your

136
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:11,200
Speaker 2: father and I loved oh And I mean, you know,

137
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 2: based on it's nothing to laborate, Michael. I mean, it's

138
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:18,320
Speaker 2: not gonna be I'm not don't feel like right now,

139
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 2: but then you go out and change the world or

140
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,560
Speaker 2: anything like that. But uh, they wanted to help him,

141
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:30,319
Speaker 2: but not right now. But uh, I you know, you start,

142
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 2: you want to start doing things the way I've done

143
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 2: it most of my life. The things I got out

144
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 2: of this morning, you know, and it was all based

145
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,319
Speaker 2: on a lot of the things I heard yesterday at

146
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 2: the Memorial Service revival. You know, this morning, for the

147
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 2: first time in a long time, I set my clock

148
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,160
Speaker 2: twenty minutes early, and uh, then I had to get

149
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:54,880
Speaker 2: up and I set my clock and I ridden my

150
00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:57,440
Speaker 2: Bible for ten minutes and then, you know, instead of

151
00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:00,880
Speaker 2: just a quickly voiced prayer and laying in bed and

152
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,520
Speaker 2: then rolling up and getting that up. I got out,

153
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 2: I got to get out a pillar. Now fifty nine

154
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 2: has got on my knees and you know, cut off

155
00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 2: everything and uh, you know, just try to focus slatly

156
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:19,439
Speaker 2: on God and pray and starting out with praising Em

157
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 2: and and you know, asking for forgiveness. And you know,

158
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 2: I want to start doing that every day. I want

159
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 2: to start going you know, for years, I mean getting

160
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:29,199
Speaker 2: them going to leave at least eleven o'clock service at

161
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 2: the local at my local Southern Baptist church with something

162
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:35,520
Speaker 2: that feen like praything to me. I want to at least,

163
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:37,719
Speaker 2: you know, start doing that again every Sunday and night,

164
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 2: you know, unless something else is going on there came

165
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:43,080
Speaker 2: up and get that going to church. Uh, tonight, I

166
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:44,439
Speaker 2: want to do the same thing and like I did

167
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,600
Speaker 2: for years, before I go to bed, bring my Bible

168
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:50,559
Speaker 2: for at least ten minutes and stop everything, cut off

169
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:52,679
Speaker 2: the lights or cut them down, and get on my

170
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 2: knees and prayse that God throw all the things that

171
00:13:56,679 --> 00:14:00,480
Speaker 2: he did for me that day. You know, based on

172
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 2: the things that I heard yesterday, I want to cut

173
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,920
Speaker 2: back on my drinking. Uh, you know I've been I've

174
00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 2: been't drinking too much. I need to cut back on that,

175
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 2: you know. And I thought about may think about me

176
00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 2: and my wife and a lot of stress now. Uh,

177
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 2: but you know some of the arguments that we've had,

178
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 2: some of my things and angers I said to her,

179
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 2: and you know, just trying, which is just something to

180
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 2: make me mad. Trying to take a breath, but not

181
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 2: count to ten, at least count to three. And before

182
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,720
Speaker 2: I say something I regret say sometimes I don't even

183
00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 2: mean and try to be nicer and kinder, you know.

184
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 2: Got to be that way to everybody, you know, people

185
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 2: that I disagree with and God to instead of rolling

186
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:58,400
Speaker 2: my eyes at them and looking I'm in disdain, praying

187
00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:00,800
Speaker 2: for them, praying that God is from a different way.

188
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 7: Family.

189
00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 2: Got to get that bitterness out of their heart and

190
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:06,400
Speaker 2: that that awful way of living, an awful way of

191
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 2: thinking about me and just praying for and that. It's

192
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 2: like I said, nothing elaborate, but you asked, you know,

193
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 2: for what commitments people made on Alpa call, and that's

194
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 2: that's mine. So thank you.

195
00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 1: I appreciate you being courageous enough to share that. You know,

196
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 1: social media has a tendency to make people, to encourage

197
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:42,360
Speaker 1: people to present to the public something that they are not,

198
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 1: at least not all the time, and to create whether

199
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:55,920
Speaker 1: it's a saint or a wealthy person or a famous person,

200
00:15:56,040 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 1: or a person living this great life. And and maybe

201
00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 1: that's aspirational. I don't know, but it's a hard thing

202
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:11,040
Speaker 1: to do in today's society to admit your weakness. You know,

203
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 1: sometimes when I state my failings, I'll get emails, especially

204
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 1: from older women, for you brag it, and I'll say, no,

205
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:22,640
Speaker 1: I think it's important that you understand that I know

206
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 1: my place and I know my failings. That is my

207
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 1: attempt at confession. I don't always appreciate it. But Michael

208
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:44,200
Speaker 1: very Show, David Bellamy just turned seventy nine years young

209
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 1: last week.

210
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:47,480
Speaker 3: We could go.

211
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:54,200
Speaker 1: Yesterday, September sixteenth, Happy birthday to one of our all

212
00:16:54,280 --> 00:17:02,000
Speaker 1: time favorites. Jd Vance, speaking at the Charlie Kirk said

213
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 1: this yesterday.

214
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,640
Speaker 6: A little uncomfortable talking about my faith in public. As

215
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:09,440
Speaker 6: much as I loved the Lord and as much as

216
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,119
Speaker 6: it was an important part of my life, I have

217
00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 6: talked more about Jesus Christ in the past two weeks

218
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:28,040
Speaker 6: than I have my entire time in public life, and

219
00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 6: that is an undeniable legacy of the great Charlie Kirk.

220
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:36,479
Speaker 6: You know, he loved God, and because he loved God,

221
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:40,600
Speaker 6: he wanted to understand God's creation and the men and

222
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:42,720
Speaker 6: women made in his image.

223
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:47,439
Speaker 1: I can tell you there is a revival going on

224
00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:52,600
Speaker 1: in America. I have heard from people who I did

225
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 1: not even know were Christians who have said to me

226
00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:04,440
Speaker 1: that this was an awakening for their soul, that they

227
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:09,040
Speaker 1: realized that none of the rest of it matters, that

228
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:13,280
Speaker 1: it has affected their marriage, their relationship with their children,

229
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:18,200
Speaker 1: their relationship with their parents, that this has changed who

230
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:19,359
Speaker 1: they are.

231
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:21,200
Speaker 5: I was.

232
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:27,320
Speaker 1: At Republic Boot Company last week getting measured for another

233
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:33,080
Speaker 1: hat and another pair of boots, and when we were done,

234
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 1: you know, they're they're ready to close down for they stay.

235
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,880
Speaker 1: They stay pretty late because they are retail shopping. They're

236
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:42,680
Speaker 1: overwhelmed with boot orders. But I said, hey, if any

237
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:44,600
Speaker 1: all want to hang around, if you're going to sit

238
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,080
Speaker 1: out back and smoke a cigar with me, I would

239
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:49,160
Speaker 1: enjoy that. Just catch up on how business is doing.

240
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,719
Speaker 1: I love to hear how businesses are doing. And so

241
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 1: they all took me up on it. Well, all the

242
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:55,919
Speaker 1: guys that were left, but eight or ten of them,

243
00:18:56,680 --> 00:19:00,240
Speaker 1: and we were sitting outside and as one of one

244
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:04,200
Speaker 1: was leaving, he told fire Ball Bill kind of the

245
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 1: operations guy. He said, fire Ball, we started eight thirty

246
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:12,680
Speaker 1: tomorrow and he said we start eight or eight thirty?

247
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:15,240
Speaker 1: Barre Ball said eight thirty. He said, I'll see you

248
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,480
Speaker 1: then looking forward to it, head it out.

249
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:19,800
Speaker 4: What was that?

250
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 1: What kind of retail shop? What kind of retail bootstop

251
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,639
Speaker 1: store that stays open this late? Opens at eight thirty?

252
00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:29,200
Speaker 1: I said, are y'all opening early now? And he said no.

253
00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:34,879
Speaker 1: The guys said, after all this happened. We've talked about

254
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:39,480
Speaker 1: for two years doing the morning Bible study. And the

255
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,159
Speaker 1: guys know, I do my Bible study first thing in

256
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 1: the morning, and I get here early beat the traffic,

257
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,280
Speaker 1: and I do my Bible study here at the shop.

258
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 1: And they said, you know, we've never had formal Bible study.

259
00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:54,720
Speaker 1: Could we sit in with you? Would that be weird?

260
00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:58,440
Speaker 1: He said no, I would enjoy that. And he said

261
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 1: I hadn't been to seminary or anything like that. But

262
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:02,879
Speaker 1: we'll read our Bibles together and we'll talk about it.

263
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:06,479
Speaker 1: We'll talk about where we are and our challenges, And

264
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:10,879
Speaker 1: I said, do you think that Charlie Kirk's assassination and

265
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:17,439
Speaker 1: martyrdom led to that? And he said absolutely, because we

266
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,639
Speaker 1: probably would have been two more years talking about doing it,

267
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 1: but never having the impetus to get it done. And

268
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:29,160
Speaker 1: isn't that amazing? You know, I need to clean out

269
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,280
Speaker 1: my house, but you need to clean out your house,

270
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,040
Speaker 1: and then your kids leave for college and go all right, now,

271
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 1: I gotta do it. There's just things that spurred you

272
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:44,679
Speaker 1: to action. And I thought that was neat. You know,

273
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:48,920
Speaker 1: the concept of Bible study. I love what the Republic

274
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:52,720
Speaker 1: Book Company guys took the approach of. And I've said

275
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,600
Speaker 1: this with a lot of things. People build up in

276
00:20:55,640 --> 00:21:01,480
Speaker 1: their minds how formal something has to be. They let

277
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:04,439
Speaker 1: the great be the enemy of the good, in the

278
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:07,480
Speaker 1: sense that Billy Graham's not going to come in and

279
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:12,119
Speaker 1: teach your Bible study, nor does he need to. The

280
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:17,480
Speaker 1: great awakening was that you can read the Bible. The

281
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:21,199
Speaker 1: Gutenberg Press made it available to every single person to

282
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:25,880
Speaker 1: read for yourself. Things. Vince Gil's got a song called

283
00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,640
Speaker 1: the Red Letter Words. It gets you a good red

284
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:32,480
Speaker 1: letter Bible where the words of Christ are in red.

285
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:36,399
Speaker 1: So you don't ever doubt and start reading, and the

286
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:41,000
Speaker 1: names will be different, especially the New Testament, much much simpler.

287
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 1: But you'll be surprised how easily you can follow along.

288
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 1: You'll be surprised how easily you will grasp the basic concepts,

289
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,320
Speaker 1: and you'll be surprised how many references. There will be.

290
00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 1: Two things that you did not know were biblical. Let's

291
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 1: go to Joe. Joe, you're on the Michael Berry Show,

292
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 1: Take it away.

293
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:14,359
Speaker 5: Charlie Kirk was God's example to us on what we

294
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:22,440
Speaker 5: should be doing, and he God gave us the template

295
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:26,080
Speaker 5: of what we need to do to defeat these evil

296
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:30,480
Speaker 5: leftists when we're trying to take over our country. When

297
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:34,160
Speaker 5: Erica Kirk stood up there and she gave the perfect

298
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:37,000
Speaker 5: example of what a man should be to his wife,

299
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,480
Speaker 5: and what a husband should be to his wife, I

300
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,440
Speaker 5: mean she should be to him and him to her,

301
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:50,439
Speaker 5: blew me away. And when she stood up there and

302
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:55,320
Speaker 5: forgave that young man for killing her husband, I lost

303
00:22:55,359 --> 00:23:00,840
Speaker 5: my breath. That was, yeah, the ultimate engrace and humility.

304
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:09,160
Speaker 5: And when Charlie Kirk first got murdered, the first thing

305
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:12,920
Speaker 5: that popped into my mind of all things, was when

306
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 5: the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor. Admrohirohito was reported to told

307
00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:23,719
Speaker 5: his superiors, I think we've woken a sleeping giant. And

308
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:27,520
Speaker 5: that's exactly what come to my mind when Charlie Kirk

309
00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:31,960
Speaker 5: was silenced. They have woken a sleeping giant, and that

310
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 5: is the Christians of this country that are going to

311
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:40,639
Speaker 5: be more bolder to stand up for their faith and

312
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 5: take this country back.

313
00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:47,159
Speaker 1: Joe, I'm glad you brought that up because I was

314
00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:54,600
Speaker 1: going to play Erica Kirk's comments on what men should

315
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:56,320
Speaker 1: do for their wives and what women should do for

316
00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 1: their wives, and I'm going to do that in the

317
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:00,639
Speaker 1: next segment. I got one minute, have to go to

318
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:03,240
Speaker 1: pat uh. I didn't get to it two segments ago,

319
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:04,760
Speaker 1: but I will do it before the show's over. Thanks

320
00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:06,879
Speaker 1: for reminding me. Pat, You've got only a minute, but

321
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:11,879
Speaker 1: take it away. Brothers, all yours, Michael, we're all in

322
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:13,920
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter of our lives.

323
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 7: There is go over time. If you've turned away from Jesus,

324
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:22,359
Speaker 7: turn back. He never left you. He's standing right behind you.

325
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:25,640
Speaker 7: If he's ever half turned to him, turn to him

326
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 7: because he's there. He's always been there. If you turn

327
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:32,680
Speaker 7: to Jesus. You'll be covered in the blood of Jesus.

328
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:36,520
Speaker 7: And the Lord God sees the blood. He doesn't see you.

329
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:38,440
Speaker 2: He won't see what.

330
00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:41,840
Speaker 7: You've done, what you Mike do. In the future, he

331
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,840
Speaker 7: will see the blood of his own son, of himself.

332
00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 1: So this is the Michael Arry show.

333
00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:51,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the one.

334
00:24:55,160 --> 00:25:00,720
Speaker 4: My say I.

335
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 1: Was going to save when Erica Kirk said yesterday until

336
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 1: this evening, and we will dig deeper into that. But earlier,

337
00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:13,800
Speaker 1: a fellow was talking about what kind of husband he

338
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:17,199
Speaker 1: wanted to be, and that now he was going to

339
00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,040
Speaker 1: go to church and he was going to change his

340
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:23,800
Speaker 1: ways and he was going to become that kind of

341
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:29,800
Speaker 1: husband and that kind of father that would suggest a revival.

342
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:33,440
Speaker 1: And I feel it, I see it. This is what

343
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:35,320
Speaker 1: Erica Kirk had to say about that.

344
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:37,920
Speaker 8: Most of all, God's mercy and God's love have been

345
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 8: revealed to me these past ten days after Charlie's assassination.

346
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:56,879
Speaker 8: We didn't see violence, we didn't see rioting, we didn't

347
00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:02,760
Speaker 8: see revolution, said, we saw what my husband always prayed

348
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:04,760
Speaker 8: he would see in this country.

349
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:06,280
Speaker 4: We saw revival.

350
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:19,480
Speaker 1: Then she talked about the responsibilities that we have and

351
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:23,600
Speaker 1: I got to tell you when I talk about what

352
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:30,320
Speaker 1: I think the perfect wife is to me. I get

353
00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:32,680
Speaker 1: emails from women and I don't even think they think

354
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:36,800
Speaker 1: before they send it. I think they have been so

355
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:43,560
Speaker 1: lied to in the same way that little boys are

356
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:48,120
Speaker 1: convinced at their little girls, and it's irrevocable. I think

357
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:49,760
Speaker 1: there are a lot of women in this country that

358
00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:55,840
Speaker 1: are missing out on the intimacy of marriage. I think

359
00:26:55,920 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 1: they are missing out on a man loving them on

360
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:04,879
Speaker 1: a deeper level because they themselves have put up barriers

361
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:09,680
Speaker 1: because they've been told by their girlfriends, who are all

362
00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:13,159
Speaker 1: unlucky in love. Don't cook for him, what are you

363
00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:17,639
Speaker 1: a slave? Don't do his don't do the dishes, don't

364
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:20,040
Speaker 1: do the laundry.

365
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:20,520
Speaker 5: What are you?

366
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:26,000
Speaker 1: Why would you do that for him? No, And they've

367
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:31,639
Speaker 1: created this sort of princess mentality that you withhold sex

368
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:37,000
Speaker 1: and affection in exchange for what you want. It's very transactional,

369
00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:42,159
Speaker 1: it's very cold, and out of that is not a

370
00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:48,120
Speaker 1: deep and abiding love. And I think that women need

371
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 1: to hear from other women and from men what we want,

372
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:59,200
Speaker 1: because I see marriages where it is transactional and there

373
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:03,600
Speaker 1: is not a true deep love. She needs money, he

374
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:07,359
Speaker 1: wants sex, and somebody on his arm, and maybe somebody

375
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:10,080
Speaker 1: at home so he's not lonely, and you miss out

376
00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:14,240
Speaker 1: on so much of life. But here is what Here

377
00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 1: is the guidance she gave to wives.

378
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:22,639
Speaker 8: To all the men watching around the world, accept Charlie's

379
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:26,520
Speaker 8: challenge and embrace true manhood.

380
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:33,959
Speaker 1: Hold on, you don't see sex, You just you just

381
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:35,880
Speaker 1: it's all okay, okay, go ahead.

382
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:42,440
Speaker 8: Women, I have a challenge for you too. Be virtuous.

383
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,760
Speaker 8: Our strength is found in God's design for our role.

384
00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 8: We are the guardians, We are the encouragers, we are

385
00:28:55,400 --> 00:29:03,000
Speaker 8: the preservers. Guard your heart. Everything you do flows from it.

386
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:09,360
Speaker 8: And if you're a mother, please recognize that is the

387
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:13,480
Speaker 8: single most important ministry you have.

388
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 1: Women have been taught usually by childless women, angry, bitter

389
00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:30,320
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton type women. Hillary Clinton's generation was all about

390
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 1: what they called feminism and this idea that we were

391
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:38,160
Speaker 1: going to scratch to the top, that we've been held back,

392
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:43,080
Speaker 1: that we're more talented. And I do think there was

393
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:46,640
Speaker 1: underemployment for a lot of women, and I do think

394
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:50,680
Speaker 1: that largely changed. But I think there were a lot

395
00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:59,360
Speaker 1: of women so narrowly focused, in a narcissistic sense on

396
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:09,480
Speaker 1: their own professional development and social stature, that they lost

397
00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 1: sight of who they were and they had nothing to

398
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:17,280
Speaker 1: give to anyone else. And that's sad, as actually very sad.

399
00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:21,120
Speaker 1: But she had disadvice for men, and I think this

400
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 1: should be taken to heart.

401
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:26,280
Speaker 8: Five twelve to all the men watching around the world,

402
00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 8: accept Charlie's challenge and embrace true manhood. Be strong and

403
00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:47,600
Speaker 8: courageous for your families. Love your wives and lead them,

404
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:54,520
Speaker 8: Love your children and protect them. Be the spiritual head

405
00:30:55,760 --> 00:31:01,440
Speaker 8: of your home. But please be a leader worth following

406
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:13,960
Speaker 8: your wife. Your wife is not your servant. Your wife

407
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:19,440
Speaker 8: is not your employee. Your wife is not your slave,

408
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:27,280
Speaker 8: She is your helper. You are not rivals. You are

409
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 8: one flesh working together for the glory of God.

410
00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:45,600
Speaker 1: Boy, that is such right guidance, biblical in nature. I

411
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:49,600
Speaker 1: think a lot of people I've seen young people who

412
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:55,920
Speaker 1: in their parenting have gone to these touchy feely white

413
00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:59,640
Speaker 1: liberal websites on how to raise a child. And you know,

414
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:04,880
Speaker 1: don't discipline the child. The child's done nothing wrong. Just

415
00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:07,600
Speaker 1: keep loving. So you see these little tyrant children, and

416
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:13,200
Speaker 1: they desperately need guarden rails, The desperately need discipline. I

417
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:18,080
Speaker 1: think the same is true of our sexual roles men

418
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:23,520
Speaker 1: and women in the household, and I think that has

419
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 1: caused the family unit to suffer terribly. I think broken

420
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:32,120
Speaker 1: families and fatherless homes is the number one problem in

421
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:37,560
Speaker 1: America today. I think you solve that problem first and

422
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:41,480
Speaker 1: then you can solve all the rest. But that is

423
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 1: your number one problem. Fantastic guidance there
