Share it. But most of all, thank you for listening to the Truth Podcast Network. This is the Truth Network. Welcome to the Christian Car Guy radio show.

I say this calls for action and now. We are updating the studios here at Truth Broadcasting and so unfortunately we're not going to be able to broadcast the live Christian Car Guy show so please sit back and enjoy this encore presentation. Really one of the most popular shows I've ever done as far as podcast downloads. It was called Car Songs and so again this is not live and it's pre-recorded so there's no sense in calling and there won't be anybody here to answer your call and of course we'll be back next week with the Christian Car Guy show live. We are so grateful that you listen to the Christian Car Guy show. Early Monday morning I will be living a grandfather's dream.

Yes, right now. For right now anyway in my life. On Mondays and Tuesday mornings I get to take my six-year-old granddaughter to school. She's in the first grade and it will go down something like this. It's so much fun as we head out the door. The first thing I'm going to say to her is Lila you're not going to terrorize those cats are you and of course the cats are waiting to be fed so she immediately starts chasing the cats around and then after we feed the cats she'll look out and I'll say Lila do you want to take grandma's van or do you want to take grandpa's truck and you know what she's going to say every single time. Papa I want to shift it shift it. I want to take your truck. You see we've done this thing for years like to the Madagascar song and said you know you got to move it move it well she does this I've got to shift it shift it because you know when she rides in grandpa's truck I have a straight driver a manual transmission and I allow her to pull it back from you know first into second I let her pull it back from third into fourth and that's a huge thing if you're a six-year-old girl on the way and then as we get in the truck as we sit down I get her in her car seat and she gets all latched in and if you know about old red it's a 95 1995 dodge dakota single cab so it's just me and her in this little bit area and she's getting all excited and as soon as she gets start going out the driveway she's going to say this every single time she says the same thing papa we're going to be there in a jiffy apparently she likes the way jiffy feels in her mouth and she loves to say we're going to be there in a jiffy and I go yeah Lila we're going to be there in a jiffy and then of course we're going to shift it shift it but then my favorite part of the whole ride we won't get halfway down the street and I will start singing she'll be coming around the mountain when she comes and she no one knows the enthusiasm my granddaughter has when we sing this song we add a lot of emphasis especially do you know when you're gonna kill the old red rooster we're gonna kill and she gets all this enthusiasm and she gets all this excitement and by the time we get to school we have had like the time of our lives so just for fun this morning I was thinking when you were a kid and you were heading out on that trip it may have been a long trip it may have been a short trip but what was the song what was the song that you love to sing yes that one that just popped in your mind the one that man you just knew it was coming and you were so excited because you got to sing it we want you to call in and share your song your memory this morning what song was it for you we got lines open we'd love to hear your song eight six six three four eight seven eight eight four I promise I won't make you sing it unless you want to but we would love to hear that memory of what it was that you used to sing when you got in the car and and very exciting I have songs from my producer Johnny Angel he shared with me what his song was we got that coming up at the bottom of the hour but the other thing that I think that even perhaps I am absolutely convinced that God is right there in that truck he's pouring out that enthusiasm into Lila and my spirits I can just feel it and it's so cool to ponder that maybe like me I thought about this over the last couple days when did God take me just me and God on a truck ride like that and he poured something like that into my spirit I've got a memory like that I'll share during the show I would love to hear yours when you think about when God just took you out like grandpa in the truck eight six six three four eight seven eight eight four I would so love to hear that story eight six six three four eight seven eight eight four and of course it is the Christian Car Guy show and spring is around the corner so how about some spring maintenance tips I got eight mustos as spring is coming up on us that we need to do to our cars to take care of and to make sure that they last as long as old red that will be around 20 years be able to sing about grandpa's truck and that kind of thing and also you know we have the Jesus labor of love ministry which is free car repair labor for single moms widows and families in crisis now this is the labor not the parts and so often I have opportunities through the week to engage with folks that need help as well as these places to places that are helping us and in some cases not helping us and I have a story along those lines I always love to see how God comes through for us and perhaps you get to see a few of Robbie's weaknesses in the middle of this story but we're going to be sharing that about the Jesus labor love again car repair labor for single moms families in crisis as part of the ministry of the Christian Car Guy show then coming up at the end of the show on our appraisal by the real black book that's where we search the bible for hidden treasure cry out for discernment lift up our voice for understanding the faith of a child you know George McDonald one of my favorite authors he spoke much on this subject and here's another free tip for you okay a Kindle app is free really it is on any computer or phone or tablet you can just go get a Kindle it's free and then very cool all of George McDonald's books because apparently they're public domain because they were so long ago written all of those sermons all those books are absolutely free at Kindle George McDonald and one of my favorite books he wrote was unwritten sermons and in his opening chapters unwritten sermons he goes on and on about the faith of a child even mentions how he believes that the child that Jesus brought to him in Matthew 18 was Peter's child and I can't help but think that C.S. Lewis and Tolkien who absolutely adore George McDonald no doubt got their inspiration for the chronicles of Narnia and the lord of the rings from that childlike spirit that they got from George McDonald so we're going to spend some time in Matthew 18 as we come into our appraisal by the real black book coming up at the end of the show this is the Christian Car Guy show bringing the kingdom of God through an automotive platform and on this show we talk about things like race car driving not speeding and following Jesus and we love to stay out of the bondage of car debt we talk about that and how to take care of your car so that it will last as long as you do you see old tractors out there in the elements since the 40s they're still running well that's because somebody loved on them and they continue to take care of them of course all this information is at our website the jesuslaborlove all that is at christiancarguy.com but most of all this is a live show so we love it when you take part in the show and we're asking today when you're a kid and you're heading out on that trip short or long what was that song call us eight six six three four eight seven eight eight four eight

have another story i want to share about a time that god took me on a trip like that and he kind of sang to me but right now i got my mom and she taught me a lot of these songs and she's on the phone she's got a song so mom you're on the christian car guys show what was your song oh just now that i'm not singing oh come on where's that childlike spirit i have been told by many people i can't sing so i'm not gonna sing but it's put on your old gray bonnet i never i never heard you sing put on your old gray bonnet well that's the one that my folks sang when my sister and i got in the car really yes and it's i'm not singing i'm going to say it okay put on your old gray bonnet with the blue ribbons on it and we'll hitch old the oven to the shade and through the fields of clover we'll ride up to dover on our golden wedding day well there you go it must be a really really old song i've you know i've never heard it out of the context of my mother and father so but it's a it's a precious memory though right oh oh yeah we had such fun except the time my mother and father put us out on the road to utica oh there's a story there grandma and grandpa put you my amazing mother out on the road to utica and grandpa put you my amazing mother out on the side of the road yes well my my sister and i were fighting in the back seat and we were warned many times if you don't stop that we're gonna leave you by the side of the road so they did how did they get out of sight before they came back and got you yeah they got out of sight they went around the next turn and waited for us and they and we didn't show up so they got scared and they turned around and we were headed back home we weren't going to you now i hope you hear about lots of good songs i am excited about the songs they're calling in with thanks mom so much god bless you we'll talk later eight six six three four eight seven eight eight four eight six six three four truth tell us your song tell us your memory i know that it's right there on the tip of your tongue that one it just popped up we would love you don't have to sing it like my mom didn't sing it but if you want to sing it by all means sing it you call us we got lines open eight six six three four eight seven eight eight four but getting onto these springtime maintenance musts you know my good friend jerry with ray's body shop is always telling us that when springtime comes you got all that salt and you got all that stuff all over your car sort of inside and out and so it's a great thing that this is a time to go to one of those car washes that allows you to kind of spray up underneath to get that stuff off the car and get the salt off and then there's nothing like you know just applying a regular old hand wax like a mcguire's or you know turtle wax or something that you know to protect that finish again because a lot of that stuff was taken off by the chemicals the harsh chemicals that are used to keep the ice off the roads and so yeah there's a spring cleaning that's that's involved and another really cool thing to do if you're like me and you got a older car it's really really important that you keep the door hinges greased a really easy thing to do there's a product called lithium grease you can find it at any parts store auto zone or whatever and it's just a little spray can like stuff and it's called lithium grease it's different than wd-40 stuff like that is is good for certain kinds of lubrication but when it comes to door jam hinges and and and you know the stops that are in the door jam there's nothing like some lithium grease that will stay put and so you can find cans of that in your auto parts store and you know go into those hinges because again the salt and all that stuff is working on those hinges and it's it's it's a good time to remind you to go back and do some of that stuff but we have kathy in north carolina also we have the songs coming out of north carolina we got one out of illinois but you know we would love to hear yours eight six six three four eight seven eight eight four kathy you're on the christian car guy show good morning good morning i am excited to hear about your song oh i have a song i sing in the car all the time because i'm a music teacher at a preschool and they love my song and we sing it at the end of our music class time every day every week so it is very simple i sing it in spanish too really but it's um god is so good well let's hear it in spanish because i don't think i've ever heard it in spanish okay wow and then he answers prayer right after that if i'm not oh it's very simple and it's only got a few notes and and anybody can sing it but god is just so good to us and so i i have to ask your your music teacher in a public school or in a christian school and a um christian preschool um i guess i can name on the air sure please yes i put a plug in for uh green pine preschool weekday preschool in nightdale and there they're going to have a very wonderful music teacher share that song and then the thing i love about your story kathy is that you're singing that song in the car you and god alone just feeling like you know i know the feeling and

eight seven eight eight eight four eight six six three four truth and yes i got to get to a few more of these spring maintenance tips you got to check those fluid levels it is that time of year to check your a lot of folks are running low on windshield washer solvent obviously coolant is a big concern and of course oil and transmission fluid those kind of things if you have not been using your air conditioning in the defrost mode a good time to do a pressure test on that your battery terminals in a load test and of course the tires always check the pressure and take a look to see if you're still in alignment or you see some cupping that might indicate that they're out of balance the belts and hoses and the windshield wiper blades are always a biggie for the spring because a lot of folks you know the eye starts tearing them up and you want to be able to see you want to be able to see that's kind of critical to being able to get down the road we have angela is in burlington she's got a song for us angela you're on a christian car guys show good morning good morning uh i was blessed to be brought up in a home where good books literature and good music were just a part of my growing up and so my grandmother lives 128 miles from burlington that's where i'm from and uh so uh that can that can seem like a very very long trip when you're five six years old you're right and so my dad would play a game he would sing the first line of the song and i would have to uh sing the next line and then by the end we wound up singing the whole song together and the one uh that has meant the most to me was in the garden and that every time i've seen that it just brings that very special memories of my dad and what a what an amazing man that he would have that song as as one of his favorites he taught me about opera he taught me about broadway i mean i grew up in the 50s so that was when you didn't have to be concerned about what language your child might hear you know right and uh he was just a very very special me and then uh uh he passed away in 2000 and i just really missed him and that song just brings back a lot of special memories yeah and um yeah i think for for all of us angela you're taking us a little bit closer to the throne as we think about your dad singing that song and now he's in the garden itself yes and enjoying that at a level that's that's unbelievable but praise god for fathers like that that took the time and had that child like heart to um enjoy those things and to spend time with you i appreciate your call so much that that just touches me god bless you thank you okay i've got just one quick thing left over from last week if i may real quick please uh you know you had last week about the things that said that said god god knows me he was winking well yeah okay it was uh september 28 2013 the lord has just been dealing with me and doing a lot of really great new things in my life and our next door neighbor was in the hospital so i've been checking on her mail and i just happened to look up and there was a heart-shaped cloud now i've seen lots of clouds that reminded me of things but this one was actually in the shape of a heart and uh i had just been seeing creation with new eyes and that and uh that trial just is the creator of the universe he knows where you are he knows what you need and he loves you that and uh is awesome and he was winking at you angela yes he was and uh and it i mean i've not seen one like that but it was just for that special moment that is i am so glad you shared that because that's a great segue to what i was going to talk about next now that we have thought about the songs that you were singing with those people that you enjoyed life with how about thinking about for me with this next segment when were you on a trip like that with god you were with him in the truck and he sang a song into your heart and you could feel him having fun that childlike spirit all that's
