Christian Car Guy
Welcome to the Christian Car Guy radio show.
The cop show dedicated to helping Christians buy and sell cars by the book. Another bluebook knobby orange book, but by God's book, the Bible called the Christie car guy with your questions. 18663421 866-34-TRUTH 7884 as being a Christian have to do with buying a car you're about to find out is your host radio more first 2015.
What you say we let Jesus take the wheel again. It's a phenomenal concept and for many of you out there you know exactly what I'm saying that sometimes when you've lost complete control at some point, you can let go the wheel and then Jesus he's going to take the wheel in it when he does it's going to completely blow you away.
I've done the show before and we are asking you the listener today to call in with your story window.
Jesus take the wheel and I'm telling all the stories are gonna bless everyone listening, perhaps even save a life.
For several so if Nestorius popping in your mind always just call us at 866-348-7884 really what you share is literally a testimony of what God is done in your life. 866-34-TRUTH 87884 and as I start out the show years ago when I did the Jesus take the wheel show. I use this illustration so I always use it because it perfectly illustrated to me.
What happened was my father was the AMC Jeep dealer in 1971.
Actually, 1969 through 75 or so in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and he traded for all things John got driving dilemma. Jesus labor love guys here with me today so he can appreciate this. He traded for this little Fiat spider convertible and being a good dad that he was, he said, son, and I was about 16 want to take that and I'll just drive home and to be fun and so I take this Fiat spider convertible which believe me was a matchbox on all sorts of levels. There was a convertible I go to take it home and I got home my little brother who was 16 amendment. My brother was 14.
We said you know up there on the Mesa. That's what you call it in Albuquerque up there were nobody lives they were going to build some houses and they played all the streets up there, but they had no houses up there yet and so here are these essentially city remain the neighborhood streets and they're all laid out with a made a great racetrack.
If you had a fish that don't try this at home. Nobody, please, please, please, for goodness sakes don't ever try this, but if you've ever driven a little Fiat spider like that. They handle fantastic and so we're gonna see just how well this car handle and so we found this regular 90� Street neighborhood kind of turn and we start driving it and going around and around and seen how fast we can go and so we take it 50. My poor mother shuttering right this minute and wait enough because both of the Delmore sons are in the same car we take it at 60. We take it it's 70 now it's getting a little exciting to say the least.
If the car is drifting out pretty good as were coming through this and each time address little bit more, so we take it at 80 and I'm like okay were gone for. We get along straight I were to go 90 miles an hour in this 90� turns Fiat spider crazy �16. That's why it should be 18 and don't try this at home so because I knew the car would drift out some I went this far inside in the curve. As I possibly could, not realizing that there was sand being that is in the Mesa New Mexico there was sand in the inside of the curve where the water washed out will soon as his Fiat hit that sand. It began to spot spin and sponge. Probably a better word because it spun and spun and spun and spun and so being a foolish 16-year-old boy that they had no clue whatsoever.
I just simply let go of the wheel.
I know what else to do. I'm in the car spinning. I just let go and looked freaked out and scared to death.
I've killed my brother because if you hit the curbs on either side at 90 miles an hour and if you have spiders all over and the tops open and you can see the world going around and around and around really fast when the car came to a stop at just kinda rocked back and forth.
My brother and I were looking at each other like what in the world you know and actually stalled the cars and straight, and as we look down the skidmarks that were down this residential street. It was perfectly in the middle never came within 45 feet of curb on either side because Jesus had taken the wheel and decided to save the Christian car guys life from being complete moron.
I asked for lack of a better word. At that age, Jesus took the wheel and so I'm here today 50 some power that's longer to share this story with you in hopes that this reminds you of some point in your life now.
It may be a car story. It may be some other way, your life is spinning out of control when Jesus took the wheel we want to hear your story, you call in and share 866348788486634 truth if you're digitally gifted him.
You know how to do that but one more time, 866. We have lines open. We would love to hear your Jesus took the wheel story, 866-348-7884 and also this morning, organ to give an update on our request for help last week on the Jesus labor love that's free car repair labor for single moms widows families in crisis and we did get some special help and I want to share some of what God showed up, and in a lot of different ways that situation assure that shortly and the other thing I want to share is when I did the show years ago I got this call and this call I will never ever forget as long as I live and I'm praying that God will provide us with more of these kind of stories of when Jesus took the wheel in your life. What if you got force well at catching a ride with my girlfriend.
Your chiropractor well and you run a stop sign got broadsided and I lived through it did not day to control it by car while really really and so was there more injuries because of the accident by paraplegic girl a while so you found yourself just in a whole different world. On the other side of that accident where different world but my eyes were opened.
Can you share that just a little bit with our listeners to resolve induced Dr. Miley got into giving up my place.
Judith about that accident came on for and that was that something that that you had been taught as a younger person and then you started to see it again. Yeah, I was right Christian. This redline got me into your standard business that accident. I was awake when the testimony you have. I would think Joe you know in your situation as other people look at and see what what what do you tell them when they say what what reason do you ever hope to and what what a blessing that is I can't.
I've often heard that the reason that Jonah was so effective in Jonah and the whale right was that when he was swallowed by that fish that that apparently that's happened in history to a couple of people that it bleaches their skin out towards this bright white and they have no hair start and so here comes Joan in the Nineveh of a bright white looking guy with care in the member gets around this guy's been swallowed by official events, minute now he tells you to repent know it comes out a little stronger in that case, Joe. So that's why think you got a rare testimony out there and I'm so thankful that you called us, Joe got you guys are there. God bless you you you you can hope out there. Thank you Joe sure looked like my so that is an example of what God has done out there.

Maybe you have a question we have job and all the hear one of our Jesus labor lead participants out of Greensboro and all automotive that provides free car repair labor for single moms families in crisis and talk about some of that coming up in a little bit, but we right now.

The physical plant, not collided as a big down jacket on and took a corner little bit too hot like you guys good and went down the side of the incline and was actually falling backwards like in slow motion. I could see the motorcycle following videos on falling backwards wanted to come to a stop. Motorcycle came to a stop right in front of me upright on two wheels know how the world that have been convicted of flopped over one side or the other that it was up on two wheels animal bars everything pointing straight.
The only thing that happened it was all written down down jacket, the only thing that happened to the motorcycle was the kickstand little bit in the handlebar and course of the trailer got across the hall damages but I truly believe that an angel call me in his arms and protect the million and 30 years later all opposer truly convert that through the born-again First Amendment ability.

We got Steve is in Louisville Kentucky. Steve Your Honor Christian card I show the morning morning bright light all all. I'm excited to hear your story.
I don't know how the world on you but I just felt compelled to call. I'll try to be plausible about it, but most my life great Dannon running around Woodway environment basically does do and every child raised a Catholic and gave it a long time ago and basically just you know the story on United. I've bonded every bad thing you can possibly think of, you know, and went from being like Melissa child folders eventually be an old war.
Matters like this being a car show. It happened to me in the car.
I was at the end of my rope and I was driving down the road and I've been trying to go to AA meetings and stuck doing all the treatment plan of trying to quit drinking and I was driving on the road and of course I is out of anonymous thing at the back in 1990 and you never saw a dog like outside the meeting.
One day I was driving on the road and out of that in my rope a new stage of development is to discourage despite displaying a like manual, no. I was really well at land I sent out that in my world from finally started crying in the morning.
God help me, Jim. I you can hear the music back and bring Stockton a perfect spot where you started to pray. It got as you please, please, please hang on for us in Louisville Kentucky. We got Steve. We got Harley.
We got Jim and a lot of other stories we got a lot of stuff we here in the Christian card I show so stay tuned and call your story. 663487884.
Where were you when Jesus today question the day on the Christian card I show we would love to hear how that happened with you, 866348788 force number to call you and share your story. 866-348-7884 and when we left our hero Steve in Louisville, Kentucky. He was at the end of his rope. He was struggling with alcohol struggling with some other issues at one point in time of the Catholic faith. And these people came up to him and said Steve got a start plan and it sounded a little bit strange to you at first but pick up your story. Therefore well but started doing.
I had actually been in treatment plan are and I got out and started going in life that you never saw the dog outside of the meeting will about to retire car got out of the last treatment center would like to start the loan that lost ground to be glad I was driving down the road and like those 87 Dodge Neon. Never forget because I can see in my mind is Johnny silver so you know what I'm talking about anyway only have 50,000 miles. Anyway, I was driving on the road going to like the dollars or whatever and I pulled up at the stoplight and I saw all one of the guys from the meeting and and I like what I thought of everything about pardoning and at the time, I would like feeling really like nothing was happening. And of course I had you been here will bold myself built and so I drive down the road a little bit more negative.
The next stoplight. I looked over the car next May with the different in the space of probably a mile and 1/2 3 miles driving down the street in Indiana, I saw like three of the by the time I made it through that dollar store I cannot explain it other than to keep it to this day, I felt a million pound lift off my shoulder and literally was transformed in that short drive down that little bitty panel in Indiana. From what I have been to something completely different and it completely restored if I ever had any faith in God and restored it if I didn't. It gave me anything you know. All I can say is I hope I haven't lost at the study, and I remember in hard things I've been through some variant of substance and God has seen you through it every time I think Steve when I hear your story is fascinating to me. When Jesus never healed two people the same way is the weirdest thing that hamburger happened to me in my life and he had something just for you that he knew your heart would react that he knew that would catch her attention.
He knew how to take the burden and like you said, his burden is light. So I know that your story bless some folks today. Amazingly, Steve. God bless you what testimony one witness.
You are for the Lord and and I thank you for your courage to call in the day, really appreciate you let me call her. I don't know how or whatever it is, and again I had to call your show today. That's it. God bless thank you.
Have a wonderful day you two you to Marley and Clemens is been hanging on for so long I would be remiss if I do hopefully Harley are still there earlier on the outside and I thought he might've gone because we still have three other folks that are still there. We got but in working to get him in a minute because I got a talk about this Jesus labor love which Joe here is with us and it's car repair for single moms families in crisis windows and some for them. Sometimes they see Jesus show up and take the wheel and that happened for one of our participants last week, Tony Lee, Lebron III asked last week if people might consider donating money to her situation. She's daft. She's been hard pressed to find a job. She finally found a job. It was 20 miles away. She had alignment problem. She needed a tire per antifreeze is literally through heater core coming into the front seat of her car and on the on the pastor side and so we asked last week that people donate some money and we did have some money come in and we made some phone calls and some people in liberty South Carolina stepped up and I want to make a shout out to them.
Keisha and her husband at Titan automotive. I'm a tell you they they went way out of their way to help Tony Lee and then Tony at Carolina tire there in liberty also did. They did the alignment way discounted price. First, were able to do that, we still have a big need there. The antifreeze is still coming in so I am going to repeat.
If the gods put it on your heart to help Tony Lee. Please send checks. We don't take any administration for all the money goes straight to what were doing it says Jesus labor of love 238 sorrow essay. You are a Lane in Winston-Salem, NC 27107 beginning of the Christian card. I.com and see how to donate to Jesus labor love that is one of the situation together situation we had was a lady with autistic son in Raleigh who needs tires desperately and we only got about half the money that we needed for that. So if God put on your heart to help out those ladies and again one of the big ways that God helps out these ladies every week is he shows up and allows us to get these people to donate like Joab and all of their and Greensboro education. I've been at Titan automotive and Tony at Carolina tire in South Carolina.
So we think about very much so that we got Jim is in Greenville, South Carolina. Talk about South Carolina.
We lost him if they been on hold for a long time. I got Harold North Carolina Harold, you're a Christian card I show the morning.
Good to hear from you again. I actually have two things to be quick. This was one of the first one was many years ago as an little 1985 Pontiac Fiero which is you know, doesn't have much in the front and except radiator and spare tire is very low. I was on a road that was going uphill curving off to the right along sweeping curve. I was running about 55 or so and coming down the hill there was a automobile in the line and sharing Madeleine coming toward me at about the same speed.
I was going.
I guess full-size pickup truck. This is a road doesn't have much room on either Silverstein and the only explanation I have for staring death in the face one moment and the next man on my way to work is that the manager must pick me up moving around always considered myself a pretty good driver with quick reflexes, but I tell myself you made a good, but you're not that good and the I went back to that spot many times and looked at it and then there's no way other than God centered nature time and he took care of me when real quickly is used to have a motorcycle and I love riding in the this one particular time I had been to the men's prayer breakfast and I left and was only back road around Moscow and now one thing careful enough attention to what I was doing and found myself drifting toward the side of road and I went all and I've done that to three times earlier in my writing history and always managed to because in this morning that I am, I thought I knew not handle all of it on the gap between the shoulder and pavement. So when I came back up by jackknife so I went off in front of it.
I had always been concerned about if I got in a life-threatening situation that I might use some of those words that I tried real hard to give up over the years and I was thrilled to death when I realized what was happening that the last words that I said was of no and no. I want often from the bike I was wearing the leather but I was protected because I had all my John 316 T-shirt and I went off and we had a wrap that we got a break, but I would love to hear the end of the story. When we leave Harold on these going in front of the motorcycle got here. What happens is no stay on, we've got a Carl is in Kearns, Utah to hear his story. We need to hear yours 866-34-TRUTH 87884 because now where were you when Jesus took the wheel when you let go of the weighted, letting go, I know how it feels.
Maybe you know how that feels. We would love to hear your story, 866-348-7884 866-34-TRUTH when we left Harold.
He was sliding in front of his motorcycle sounded pretty scary. Fortunately he wasn't cursing along with this with her. So pick it up for Sarah what happened well I should have been carted off like most people would abandon that similar situation, but I came away with the scrapes did have about eight stitches in my underarm on the right side but there is no explanation for Robbie. I know I want off in front of the back actually have. I think the handlebar come in in the ribs and and actually knock me out because from when I said I don't know realizing what was happening.
I didn't know anything until I'm standing up in the middle road. Also, there were no oncoming vehicles or whatever was a little back road but it does have traffic but I stood up and middle-of-the-road and saw my bike about 25 or 30 yards down often little shallow ditch and it was quite amazing.
I have no explanation for this one either.
Other than the fact that God is one ready for me and that's one of things I think is important. People that go through things like this is the try try to figure out why� What's the reason that so many people in accidents less than what you've just experienced.
Don't make it and you did and think is very important to realize that there's there's some reason that God disparages and it's important to try to figure that out and go forward accomplice Harold, I appreciate you calling so much this morning. Thank you and thank you Robbie, enjoy the program. Thanks. We would oops is comfortable with. Oh man my friend that is been hanging on for so long that I just cannot stop the first time I've done that Johnny so please call us back 866-34-TRUTH 87884 I was pushing the button actually put them on Johnny not cut them off. 866-34-TRUTH 87884 call back with your story, but I did have one story aft on the show on on on the few other times and there was a story that I wanted to share this was a preacher kid.
