This is the Truth Network. This is the Truth Network. Welcome to the Christian Car Guy Radio Show. I say this calls for action and now nip it in the bud. Nip it.

In the bud. You got to nip it in the bud. I got a dead battery. He who comes to save the king of kings.

So strong and brave, riding low in humble grace. He brought God's love to every place. Hosanna, Hosanna to the King of Kings, what was your dead battery? Hosanna moment. Oh, that's an interesting little puzzle there as you begin to think about that.

What was your dead battery Hosanna moment? And how thrilled we got my good friend Bob, our Christian Junkyard guy, with us today. Bob? It's great to be here today, and I definitely have a dead battery Hosanna moment. I'm glad that it fits like.

Oh, it'll fit. It'll fit. I guarantee it'll fit.

So. If somebody said the word Hosanna like you you you you you every year you think about it on Palm Sunday, which is tomorrow, right? And when you think of the word Hosanna, what do you perceive the meaning of that word might be? For me, it's just praise. You know, just.

Yeah, yeah, that's the way a lot of people look at it. Scott? Praise and humility. Praise and humility. So, we're going to learn something today.

I can assure you, if that was your thoughts, I bet you might see it. But it is the Jesus Labor Love weekend as well. We got Scott with us. And coming up later, we got RK in the garage, 89 and still turning wrenches. In fact, he hurt his back this week because he couldn't get the oxygen sensor out.

And we had so much fun playing Name That Noise last week. Oh, boy. I thought we should. you know Have a little shenanigans again today and play a little more. Name that noise.

And so, if you're up for it, it's time to play. Define that defect, highlight that hubbub. Name that noise. All right. And so, with that said, you guys don't blow it for the audience because they can call in and win at 866-348-7884.

Anything from the. Christian Cargai Prize Vault. All you got to do is name this noise. Yeah. Yeah, 866348788486634 Truth.

If you can name that noise, you heard it. He played it twice. I'm guessing that you could probably think about some of the hints I may have already given today and name that noise. 866-348-7884. One more time, Nick.

Yeah. There we go. And so You know, with this idea of the word Hosanna. Right. And I don't know if you knew this, but actually they're quoting from this 118th Psalm.

Right. And because they're saying, blessed is he that comes in the name of the Lord. That comes right out of the 118 Psalm, but the word. That they're using that is Hosanna is actually Hebrew, and I like that. You can imagine that I do.

And what it actually is, is: save now, I beseech thee, O Lord. Save now.

So the word save now is actually a prayer. If you think about it, they're asking i they've been in slavery. to the Romans for some period of time. Right? And and they want out and and they're looking for a Savior.

And fascinatingly, The word Savior in Hebrew is Yeshua, right? It's Jesus' name. Actually, it's in there. And so the word Jesus, when you hear the S sound in Hosanna, that S is the Yeshua that's actually in there. Save us.

But th it's a prayer because they're asking that it be done now. Like Not tomorrow. Not tomorrow. And so if you've had that dead battery experience, and I had. Three Stories this week.

I mean, it was like, God, are you wanting to teach me about dead batteries this week? And so the first one. actually was my boat, right? And so You know, it's that time of year you get your boat out for the first time, right? And you d turn the key and the and the l no lights come on, no gauges come on.

I mean, there's nothing. Whoops. Yeah, nothing, nothing, nothing.

So You know, next thing you know, we get a new battery for the boat. Right. Tuesday, Monday, we had to go to our church. We have this thing called the Sunshine Cart. We help out one of the schools.

And we loaded all our cars with the. You know, we had all this stuff in there that we had to take to the school, which included a cooler full of drinks and all sorts of stuff that we give to the teachers. And like once the car is fully loaded, this is a Toyota Right, Prius. Where the battery is in the back, okay, so. And I hit the key and nothing.

When it doesn't say ready, if you're in a Toyota Prius, it's not good.

Okay. And I'm like, oh my gosh, because when the battery goes dead in a Prius, I don't know if you knew this. But everything's electronic. And so you can't open the back hatch to begin with, better yet, get to the battery. Like, I don't know who thought of this structure, but none of so what you have to actually do is you have to in this case go through the back door and start unloading the car because you've got to get underneath the hatch in order to pull the the the the mechanical one that would open the back hatch so that you can even get to the battery.

And the shenanigans that were involved in this Like man. You know what I needed? Bomb? Yeah. I needed a savior.

Right? Right now, and as it turned out, it was R.K. who, you know, we're going to have in the garage. I called him. I said, R.K., can you come over here and give me a job?

Because I don't have a veteran. And he did. And we're going to hear more about that. But maybe you've had that moment in your life, but there's bigger moments where you need to save your life, you got nothing. You got nothing, nothing you turn the key and nothing.

And all of a sudden, man. Man, I need a Savior. And all speaking of the Jesus Labor Love, here was an applicant this week. Right, Scott? Yes.

And here's her story. And as I listened to it, I thought, oh my goodness, if there was ever somebody that needed a Savior. for this moment it w it would be hers.

So she she told me that she was a um She helps Uh with physical therapy at home. It's sort of an in in house kind of thing. And and she'd gone to this client and got out and looked and that the battery light was on slash alternator light in our Mercedes. Right, and it's red. And she says, Well, I'll make it to the next house.

And sure enough, she did. But when she got out of that one, guess what? Her car wouldn't start.

So she added toad. to a battery place. Right? And they put in a new battery. And that she thought would fix her problem.

And she went. you're going to know immediately what happened. She went about 60 miles to this next place and guess what? Car died again. And she called the people and they said, oh, then we must have given you a bad battery.

So they put another battery in it, thinking that was the battery. By now, you've figured it out, Bob. And most of us that know anything about cars know that that red light does not necessarily mean you got a bad battery. There's this thing called an alternator. And Three toes later, she finally got I'm I'm serious, three she finally got the car to a place that could tell her what was really going on with it.

And sure enough, she needed a savior.

So what what was your Moment 866-348-7884. Bob, you got one? Yes, sir. When we were headed to Daytona this year, we stopped by our place at Myrtle Beach. And I have a golf cart down there and it hadn't been plugged up in a very long time.

So I said, Well, I better plug it in and give it a little boost, so when we come back, it'll be ready. and I plugged the charger into it and just a red light flashed.

So that meant that the batteries had got too low for the bulk charger to uh charge it up. I was like, okay, well, I'll just bring my charger down from home when I come back down here and individually charge them, unhook them all and individually charge them. and get enough power for the bulk.

Well, while during that process I realized that I had two that were completely dead, unrevivable. And uh yes, unrevivable. They were uh were going to need a replacement.

Well, we had some new neighbors that had moved in behind us. and I'd met the wife, but the husband stepped out. that day and we were talking back and forth and he said, well, how you doing? I said, I'd be great if you happen to have a couple of batteries sitting over there somewhere. He says, as a matter of fact, I do.

And there are lots of different kinds of batteries for golf carts and such. But it turned out that the two batteries he had were exactly what I needed. and we were able to put those in and uh so and the natural question is why did he have two batteries sitting around? Did he one time have a golf cart? I did not look a gift horse in the map.

Yes, he he he had two golf carts, but uh I think he had replaced you know, some of his, and he had found that he had two good ones. You know, a lot of times you've Right, you replace them all at the same time. You got some that still hold a charge. And uh he had two that would still hold a charge and uh I was very excited. And he wouldn't take any money for him.

So there's something nice in his future coming from the young family, that's for sure. All right. What was your. Right? Dead battery, Hosanna Moment, 866-348-7884-866-34 Truth.

We'll be right back. You're listening to the Truth Network and TruthNetwork.com. Yeah. That's it is He who comes to save the king of King so strong and brave, riding low in humble grace. He brought God's love to every place.

Hosanna, Hosanna. What was your dead battery, Hosanna? Hosanna moment. And as I've thought about this all week, Hosanna is a neat prayer. Like, man, and it's it's kind of a one-word thing.

Like, man, I need to say, like, Hosanna. Because in a way, you're saying Jesus' name at the same time you're saying, I need you. And it's an immediate way to do it, and to incorporate some Hebrew there. And it's certainly biblical. That you know, I can remember when I got hit by the jeep bomb.

That Clearly. I was I I called out Jesus, believe me, I did, in a sincere cry. It was not a Yell. It was a cry because I was You know, crushed. And I was, you know, in a way.

And it's an amazing thing that that is exactly what his name is about. Is not just your salvation, which is wonderful, and obviously what the people needed there on Palm Sunday, what we need every single day of our life. But also, from you need your keys, you've lost your keys, or whatever it is that is that moment. There's nothing like having a Hosanna. Um right there that you can call on that.

That prayer, Scott. And so I love the idea that save now, I beseech you. It's a please, please. Please. Help me.

You know, as the case may be, with your dead battery moments. And of course, at that point in time, as I'm laying there, what actually was, is the Jeep was still On me. The other jeep, and I'm up against my jeep, but the jeep that had crushed me was up against me. And I'm crying out. Because I'm trying to get the Jeep off me, which I can't push the Jeep off me.

Right? So the guy who left his car out of gear had to come get in his car. And because it was downhill, nobody was going to push that car off of me. And so he came out in his car and. And backed up to get the car off me.

Well, little did I know that I didn't have a leg. To stand on because there was little to no legs in the shin part of my bone there, whatever, you know, and that made for a really bad compound fracture when I tried to stand on it. But you don't know that you don't have a leg to stand on when you don't have a leg to stand on. And It's fascinating to me, and it's a promise, okay, that I know in my heart from a standpoint of faith. That I know That he came and he hugged me at that particular moment, and I was not in a phenomenal amount of pain.

Not the kind of pain that I've been in in my life, but you would think in that moment you would be in excruciating, unbelievable pain. I wasn't. I wasn't because of what I call a Jesus hug. He was there and he had me. And so I'm I'm I know that for you, Bob, you had an emotional Dead battery moment, right?

At the moment in time, you fully came to grips with the fact that your son was dead. I can't imagine in my wildest dreams, but at that moment Did you get some kind of grace that you only had for that moment? Or do you remember? I'm not exactly sure. I just know that I was able to move forward.

and just not completely come unglued. And I I've never really understood that because as close as me and Rob were, it just seems like I would have been completely annihilated and unable to function in any capacity. But That wasn't God's plan for me. It's the only thing I can say, only thing I can think of. is that his plan was for me to move forward and as I try to do most of the time.

find some silver linings on even the darkest clouds. And um I was not fully functional by any means, but I was able to just move somewhat forward instead of just standing still or or going backwards. I remember that morning pretty vividly because I actually got a text from Jerry, who is our Christian Potty Shop guy. and told me Um that you were at the hospital. And that you just lost Bob.

No, I mean Rob. And um and I called you. I don't know if you remember that. I do not. I didn't imagine you wouldn't.

And you know, just to tell you I love you and just to tell you I love Rob. Right, which I do desperately, you know, like we had, like you said, it was just a 10 days, whatever it was, from the time he was on the show. There was that moment, and he was on the show January, December 28th. and he died on january the ninth.

So 10, 12 days, something like that. And there it was. But you were moving forward. You did talk to me. It was like.

You didn't tell me you were okay because I didn't ask you if you were okay, okay? But you were able to converse with me. It wasn't like. You know. Mm-hmm.

Um I'll always be grateful to Rob's friend. Uh Rob died at like eleven o'clock. And um that night before midnight, a friend of his had dri driven up from Orlando, Florida. Oh, I remember, yeah. Robert.

And he uh you know, he gave me The next morning. we got up, we were headed out to the truck, well I always go to the Driver's seat. He said, whoa. He says, I'm not here to ride around with you. I'm here to drive you around because you're going to be on your phone all day.

And I'm here to give you best friend perspective. on anything you might need from me, you know. And uh I will always, always, always remember and be so grateful for that because it was. He was exactly right. I was on the phone all day long.

you know, people with questions and things to plan and and That's just amazing. We got Pastor Carl in Toledo, Ohio. I'm excited to hear from Pastor Carl.

So, Pastor Carl, you're on Christian Car Guy Show. Good morning. Good morning. How are you guys doing? We're excited.

We're excited to hear what you might have for us. Oh, well, I was just calling to say thank you so much for doing what you do. I think I might know you, I'm not sure, but I remember the auction in Moxville back in the day. But yeah, I remember Tom and Ray Maliatski, the car guys over on NPR. Right.

Much better alternative to that, even though I still like those guys.

Well, I got to go to a break, Pastor. Can you stay with me a minute? I would love to talk to you.

So, through the break, we'll be right back. We would love to hear from you. 866-348-7884. We'll be right back. You're listening to the Truth Network and TruthNetwork.com.

Uh Let's say it's He who comes to save the king of kings, so strong and brave. Riding low in humble grace, he brought God's love to every place. What was your Dead Battery Hosanna moment today on the Christian Car Guy. We would love to hear from you. 866-348-7884.

We got Pastor Carl. In Toledo, Ohio. We just got started and we had to go to a break, Pastor.

So are you actually in Toledo now and you used to live in Moxville? I used to live in a place called Union Grove, North Carolina before I moved to Charlotte.

So yeah, yeah. We we got stuff uh for the farm out there. Mitchell Farm is actually still in Union Grove at a place called Grassy Knob Mountain. That's wild. That is wild.

And so How about you, Pastor, have you had one of those Hosanna battery moments? Absolutely. I'd say this, and I don't want to be long-winded, but sometimes life feels like a dead battery, I think, and really no power, no movement, no spark. But you try to start your day with your faith and purpose, and it doesn't work, and nothing turns over. But just like you guys were talking about earlier, when the battery is dead doesn't mean that it's broken.

It doesn't mean the car is broken, rather. It just needs charging, and sometimes we need charging. I liken it to Isaiah 40, I think, 31. Hopefully I'm correct on that. But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength.

We have to wait.

So, yeah, I've had those moments. I dare say I might have some of them right now. But I can trust. We trust in the Lord that we won't be drained of our spirit and we lift him up in word, you know, study your word, worship, and it'll jump start your soul, really. If you can worship God in the middle of what you're going through, like Paul and Silas when they were incarcerated, man, things will change and gates will break and fall down and chains will fall off.

So I'd say, yeah, your faith really is the best part of the Hosanna moment that we celebrate even on this weekend. I love it. I love it. Thank you, Pastor. I appreciate your call very much.

I hope we hear back from you again soon. Oh, absolutely. God bless you guys. God bless you. Happy Palm Sunday, Pastor.

Yeah, happy Palm Sunday. Bye-bye. Amen. No. All right, we got Wendy is in Cary, North Carolina.

So, Wendy. How are you doing? Good morning, Robbie. Doing well. How are you guys today?

Good morning, Wendy. Wonderful. She is. One of our Jesus Labor Love favorites. By all means, Wendy, I know that the Volvo's been kind of giving you one of those dead battery moments lately, Ryan.

Okay. It has a little bit. I love what that pastor was just saying about waiting on the Lord. It's true. He provides and it's not always At my timing, or the moment that I think things should happen, but he's always teaching me.

in that to turn to him.

Sometimes we just sort of forget to turn to him and say, Is your plan the same this time as it was last time? You know, what do you want me to do, Lord? And sometimes it's I need that pause to remind me, you know, to kind of wait on him.

So good word this morning. I love it. And actually, Wendy, it was me this morning because honestly, I. I had been in Myrtle Beach yesterday and I had to drive back late last night. I got in about midnight.

and got up early this morning. And I was like, Lord, I can't do anything unless you give me something. But my brain was like, just I was all over the place trying to get. I just didn't feel like myself. But somehow or another, I just started calling out: like, God, you gotta help me, you gotta help me.

And he started to show me some amazing stuff, actually, in the 118th Psalm. And as I studied it and went further, There's some things. If you read the 118th Psalm for Palm Sunday, Wendy, or anybody else. You you really want some insight. Look at what it actually says.

It says, bind the sacrifice to the cords with cords to the altar.

Now And You don't hear them quoting that particular line, by the way. They don't. Quote a couple of the lines out of the 118th Psalm, what they say is Hosanna, and they say, Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. But they don't say these other things. And some of the things they left unsaid are for us to say.

Because unless the sacrifice is bound to the altar. We don't get salvation. Yeah. Right. It is good.

It is good. the the kind of salvation they were looking for Was not the kind Jesus had in mind. Have you ever noticed that the kind of salvation I'm looking for is not necessarily what you had in mind, Wendy? It is so true, Robbie. You are so that is so right.

Yeah. But yet God provi you know, like it makes me think of The story of the ram in the thicket. Instead of Isaac, you know, he provides, like, sometimes he's just really calling us to look to him. And I love your story about this morning. Because it's when I'm at the end of myself that I'm most prone to say, And really, it's all from him to start with, but I just forget that, you know, and I have to get to the end of myself to say.

Lord, What do you have for me, or what do you want me to do next? That's beautiful. Absolutely. And I know we need to pray, so I'm going to do that.

So, I know Scott's with us, and Scott always has a big smile on his face when he hears your voice, Wendy.

So, let's pray, Scott. Lord, thank you so much for Wendy, and I thank you for the Volvo that I know that you provided for her. Right now, we need to provide a way to keep it from leaking oil or whatever it is doing. Lord, we pray that you would make it a way there seems to be no way in that situation. Lord, I pray that you would meet her needs as you always do.

And Lord, I know that Wendy will give you glory for that. I pray that you would make it happen and that she would see your hand and all that comes from that. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen. Amen.

Thank you, Wendy. God bless you. Thank you. You're always a bright light. All right.

Bye-bye. All right, we got. Amy. is in Durham, North Carolina. Anna, you're on the Christian Carguy Show.

Good morning. Morning, Nanny. Good morning. Um How are you? I am wonderful.

What have what have you got for us? Yeah. Well, first of all, I'd like to say that Oh, I get a lot of insight from listening to your show.

So, a lot of inspiration and even a few car sacks.

So, thank you for that. God is good, isn't he? Yeah. Yeah. Uh my um Hosanna moment was I was at the state fair um and Raleigh.

Two years ago. And I was trying to back into this handicapped spot, but there were cars coming. in every direction. And the people who were directing the traffic wasn't really stopping them. And so I decided to put on my blinkers.

so that they would know what my intentions were. And uh I backed in and Uh, got out of the car. We've spent about Four hours enjoying the fair, stayed there maybe longer than we normally stay. And I was the driver, of course, uh myself and my kids. And when we came back to my car, Um I couldn't get in the door because the battery was fit.

It had been flashing for a while. Oh, man. Oh, man. Exactly. And as I tried to get in.

uh it didn't dawn on me until Uh about uh five minutes later, the board said It's your battery. And how it's like Oh Lord. Though Uh I went over to one of the people. who is directing the traffic and all in I was surprised that they they were all around. They sh somebody should have seen them flashing before I got to the gate that I was getting in, but No one said a a word.

So once I went over to them and told them what the problem was, they said, Um Well Maybe we can call someone for you who's here. We have the sheriffs, the deputies on duty, and they can probably give you a jump. that then they informed me thirty minutes later There. the deputies couldn't get to where I was parked. Because of all the traffic.

Oh my. And then I told them I would call. Uh AAA. And um I called Triple A. And they told me they were Uh less than a mile and a half away.

but they were stuck in traffic, so it took them about three hours Yeah, to me.

So I definitely learned my lesson that, you know, I was thinking through all this, God is. Um Omniscient. He knows all. He's Uh omnipotent. He's all-powerful and he's omnipresent.

So, when man can't get to us, when man can't be our savior, which we never should look for anyway. We must look to God and He always comes through.

So do it all. He gave me a piece that surpassed all understanding, even my kids. We just stood out there, it was the hottest day. of the year it seemed that that particular day, even though it was uh an October day. And we just Good bear.

leaning against the car. Waiting for me. Man, I am feeling it.

Well, Amy, Annie, I'm sorry. Annie, we got to go to a break, but I do have. Arcade coming in the garage, but I also have an idea for all of us that we won't have to experience this again when I come back.

So stay with me, will you? All right. Thank you, Andy. We'll be right back. Get a few.

Every You're listening to the truth network and truthnetwork.com. Uh I got a dead battery. Let's say it is here. Who comes to save? The king of kings so strong And brave riding low in humble grace, he brought God's love to every place.

Hosanna, Hosanna, to the King of Kings who we cry. What was your dead battery, Hosanna, moment today on the Christian Car Guy show? And fascinatingly, as we were hearing from Annie. Um She had that moment, as many of us have, where you seem to be totally stranded and you've got no answers. But I was going to say, RK, and I don't know if you have any experience with these, because we've got RK in the garage, which maybe we should set that up first and play a little intro so the RK can feel at home.

And now time for the legendary garage of RK 88 and Bill Bolbrop. There he is. RK. And so good morning, RK. If you A friend of mine has this little device he got off Amazon for about $30.

That he keeps charged in his car, and he can jump his car with this little thing that's about the size of your hand. Um It's got jumper cables on it and away you go. Uh have you seen any of those? Yes. I've seen a bunch of 'em.

And uh They're pretty good. Uh, for peop you know, for for ha people having something small enough to to be in the car and have a problem, they can jump start their own car. you know, that which is which is good, you know. Uh I don't I think that that that's pretty cheap, thirty bucks though. I I well they make 'em all different prices.

You can get a full grown battery box for one hundred and twenty eight bucks. But what are you gonna say, Bob? Really? You can spend all you want. Or you can get something more economical too.

Yeah, so you can check it out for yourself. But that is a solution so you don't end up stranded, as I was when I had to call 1-800-RK on Monday. My own personal roadside assistance. And there we were in the Prius again. But nonetheless,.

What would you have to say to this subject of battery maintenance?

Well, the first thing is If with a lead acid, you have your lead acid battery in there, make sure your terminals are clean. The lead acid batteries cause the corrosion. The AGM batteries, the gel batteries. They don't have too much of a problem with that.

So that's a good thing. I'm working on the 2014 edge right now. Not on the battery, but I'm looking at the battery and it's all corroded and it belongs to a church member and I'm looking.

Well, uh a little bit of hot water and baking soda, guys. We'll clean that up. and eat that acid and get rid of it. Baking soda and hot water. And it works good all the time.

Don't use the coat. Use the baking soda, hot water, and that'll help. And I can tell you, and I know you've had experience with this too, RK. That the battery terminals, they mess with the cables. And those and the cable ends on especially import cars.

I can they are a nightmare if they're not well connected, right? Yes, if they're not tight and clean, forget it. It's a pain. And that's where the corrosion comes in. And I've seen it.

I've seen the connection on the battery good, and then when you get to the terminal at the wire itself, it's corroded inside the wire and you can't see it and it's you don't have any contact. And so, what I did actually on my father's Hyundai. Was they make these little inserts that you can actually put over the terminal to increase the size of it so you can get a tighter grip on them? Have you used those problems? I've seen it.

Yeah, it's actually a little piece of lead. You put it over the top of the battery terminal and then you attach the the the cable to it. And again, it's just that connection between that battery and that terminal can literally, especially when you're talking about. And you know this too, RK, that these newer cars like Hyundai's, et cetera, they've got electronic power steering. And so if that thing comes disconnected, you can't steer.

You can't. Yep. Your car has that too, Robbie. And some of them got electronic power brakes. And so, if you don't have a good set, if you don't have a good, clean connection, it could be catastrophic.

Just saying. I'm going to. I'm going just back to the old school a second. I don't use that lead insert there between the two of them. I have a piece of brass.

That I've had for years. It's getting smaller. And I cut a piece of the strip of their brass off to fit it around the terminal. And it's a much better connection. That's from the old school cushion.

Nobody actually carries that brass too much with them anymore. That's what I love about your case. He gave me a wrench, man. A 10 millimeter wrench that if you ever go to change the battery in a Prius. You need an RK wrench, is what you need.

Oh, that's funny. But it's funny. Having the right tool, having the right supplies, Bob, you know what I'm saying. Absolutely. R.K., this is Scott.

I got a question for you.

Okay, Scott. put them batteries in some of these cars where you can't even hardly find them. Fine, if that's what I was going to do. And uh Boy, it took us half a day just to find it. And then it was.

Underneath a front wheel well or something? Oh, it must have been a seabring. I think so. They're in the trunk. They're in the trunk.

They're in the fender well. I remember in 80 97 Olsenville comes in. I can't find the battery. I said, where's the battery? Oh, my gosh, I had to take the air cleaner, the box, I had to take it.

It took me 20 minutes before I got to the battery down in the fire well. I mean, in the wheel well.

Some of them are in the back seat. You just don't. You know, it's called the hide the well, I can tell you why. Because when those things explode, they can kill people. Oh.

Oh, yeah. And so the lead acid would do that. I don't remember them ever exploding in the old cars. Oh, that's when they did it. Right, Bob?

Yeah, did it. We had to find the battery in every car we crushed. And that's a lot of battery finding. I would hire a battery finder.

Well, we uh I did. They were the guys on the ground and I did the ground work, you know, at a at a port At a period of time, what did you do? What do you do for a living, Scott? You sound like you're in the automobile business. No, this is Bob, and Bob was Bob is.

I used to crush cars. He used to crush cars and sell parts. We were in the recycling. We were end of life. End of life for the car.

Hey. I still use those parts. Oh, yes, sir. Yes, sir. Previously enjoyed.

Yep. Oh, that's a good one. Previously enjoyed. You can use that. I like that one.

You can use that. But it's amazing that just it's such a simple thing. But oh my goodness, if it's not right It it it can make a m mess of things and make a mess of your life. And so the the battery is is a critical thing. You know, since we don't have a lot of time left, we had some computer problems this morning, couldn't get RK on as soon as we wanted to.

But I did want to say, you know, it is a Jesus Labor Love weekend. And the Jesus Labor Love, as Scott has said, is we've been busier in January or February or March we've ever been. You know what that means? We are lower on funds than we have been in a long, long, long, long, long time.

Yeah, and if you got a a car or a van sitting out in the yard. In that Tires are flat and we'll come get it. Yeah, if you've got a car to donate, we desperately we have a whole long list of people that need cars, Bob.

And it doesn't have to be a car that runs. If it if it's at the end of life. we can take funds from that. And turn it into help for another person. Right, right, right.
