Now sit back and enjoy this podcast, the Christian card was a suspicious photographer looking around seemingly been struggling with her hasty decision to break up with Jimmy ever since Ms. Annie Pastor Jack, Sec., and a chance to share some wisdom on the subject of grace without clicking on the alley, sitting down to supper with her grand parents were driver will now it was only 10 and a goodhearted grandparents, Bob and Bonnie Perkins raised her word grace grace. Remember we used to say that grandma not a person who is like full of grace someone treats you and everybody else like well like your favorite or their favorite interesting Ms. Annie about that word. I Ms. Annie.
She's good for making what you say that grace will now be believe I never really considered before. I do remember someone of that quality actually was. Your great-grandfather Perkins. Oh, you're so right, dearest man I ever met yesterday was your number Bonnie Beavercreek and we go inner tubing every year. Even if the water was freezing cold with laughter and never laughed so hard, all sit around the campfire resting grandfather.
Your grandpa signed the family members leave on 1 July cookout told Kayla something that is actually about conflict between you and some family coming your way to your brother Don so the entire family was. I haven't played golf since I left home a few years before my brother Don thought I would never miss a word to play at the beaver County hospice charity golf tournament in honor of her mom just died of cancer. Don knew I would come looking for those golf clubs and he had sold not only my clothes but his own as well.
You end up running bags for both of us but I still fuming mad, I tell you how are you, grandpa Perkins plan to offer me that your grandpa enough that I knew I had to say something I admire.
I couldn't think of I am going to grandpa for grandpa read a prayer for me that day. I would swear that God himself will be my brother holding like literally all at once.
I can understand how brokenhearted he was over mom see Allie our mom had given the special crystals all around those crystals Pollyanna rainbow make dollars. Mom's favorite saying raised on the back and mailed the story behind the crystal in the window saying what's to love to see the face of God, wow this great thing really brings out some good stuff that changed my relationship with my brother forever. And believe me I have great grandpa Perkins had that quality lies in grace, that's for sure. That's my real question, why did he have grace. I think it was because he knew lots of folks and act like they're all spiritual, but grandpa Perkins well like my mom said when you looked into his face so he knew the Bible inside now that he didn't hit you over the head with it since he was praying for all of us all. When you were with me felt like the apple of his like you have his full attention and admiration. He might correct you, but he have a way of doing it that made you feel better, not worse. Great Perkins had grace and we knew it was his relationship with God, which makes me think maybe we should say grace, even though we've already not a bad idea. Grandma. Meanwhile, since this is have no one else to turn to the share suffice to go somewhere quiet and asked Jesus showing what Jimmy fervently prays and tries his best to trust you and not getting a clear answer right now, and that's all right I don't know what to do next.
You're telling me that something better than I was hoping what I hope something much better things to me is praying he sees something to look at the crystal great love another person trying to tell me something. Jimmy's jeep is close enough for the whole season rainbow quality windshield wiper is astonished with Gracie rainbow more fervent prayer golf pressure on Jimmy Jimmy Kelly green Max light. This you know what I'm saying S standard. Like all Society of auto and manual with us and God is with us even right. I know it I can crash this right here right now over talking yes she's pretty everything I see dozen suspect to say you arrived. Small towns are the best place for this is worth everything now I don't care that she see my face you're taking her nothing she can do and nobody to report to call Jimmy meeting, like so today I just question what is total loss insurance situations and becomes a total loss. What's involved in that we have our very own Christian insurance guy Christian we have that too, but we have a Christian body shop guy with us here today. Jerry from Ray's body shop to help us discover those things along those lines. Jam is complicated when your car is totaled. There's a lot of factors that that play into it and a lot of preference but there's also regulations that play into our maybe it's not till then you think it ought to be so tall that there's no doubt that but there's some questions that hopefully will be able answer along those lines. About when is a card told him how you get the most from your insurance company. If that happens, but beyond that is a difficult question. I myself have been pondering here today. I'm pondering and that is something, anything, a car TV set. When is it not worth fixing from Jesus's perspective, but even more difficult than that.
When is a relationship not worth fixing from Jesus perspective. Once a relationship not worth fixing from Jesus perspective or when's the church not worth fixing from Jesus perspective and as I said this to Jerry.
He said the same thing.
I know your sandwich is something I'm saying is I wish there was a simple formula like we have for how you it's called the threshold loss formula PLF for cars but maybe you know maybe you have those answers. I am actually struggling along these lines. Here the last few days and I would love your wisdom so you can call us. We are alive today, 86634878848663487884.
I have not found this this formula and I know I've never known a relationship, myself, and I mean this in all sincerity that I didn't think was worth fixing. However, that you know having been a Christian I guess about 20 some ideas.
27 or eight years. At this point, I have come across lots of folks but clearly did feel like there's a place there and they felt like there was a place there with me. They no longer will associate with me whatever it is I did to offend them or whatever they just wanted they just disappear on your life and you can chase and say what I do. How can I make this up me know. I don't want you to be gone but yet they're gone and you try to figure that one out and you like that. When is the wind limit window. I pulled the trigger on something like that.
When is it that I decide that this relationship is worth it from G. How does Jesus want me to what Robbie wants is not a big deal. Obviously, what Jesus wants is a huge deal. So what is it look like what is it look like from a church in general you see that all the time I got up I got for years and years and years and I've gone to Calvary for years and years. In fact, since I've lived in Winston-Salem. I belonged that one church, not the church to attend, but when you come to the point that while this is not worth fixing and what is that look like exactly and how does that was sent from Jesus perspective. Obviously, in the book of Revelation there was a point that he was to take away their candlestick, which meant that he was pulling out so I know that there's a place in there's a spot that wears words that you know where where we as humans on this side of it. How do we define that nets what I don't know that I could River Canon so the results as you can see my mind question here and I would love and I mean that sincerely. I do not have a clear-cut answer on the lines but if you have some insider have some wisdom or maybe of a comment or situation that you want to share please please I'm asking you, call 866-348-7884 Windsor relationship from Jesus perspective not worth fixing. 866-348-7884 but getting the cars right easy part of this you deal with this every single day. So insurance company standpoint.
Can you kindly explain the total loss formula you when it when the vehicle is been in an accident and sometimes as this had to be a collision accident can be in a flood water damage our dog some other type of damage but facing state of North Carolina and this is pretty much rule throughout this country in other states also is a 75% rule they sitting there was a 75% because a lot of people come in and the first undergoing is what's got frame damage. It's gotta be a total loss. Well, that is not an accurate statement because one thing, there is very few cars out there and if you have a truck that has a frame under it. So that's misleading.
Just that that thought process but is that 75%.
You know that the really the tough thing is, most insurance companies don't hit the 75% mark because they're going to want to total probably at 70% just because they know that if you hit 75% if the repairs of already been completed.
I have to buy that vehicle back whenever you have damage into that 70% of people can understand the math quickly will just use old red is an example of this is real and expensive elements 95 Dodge Dakota 393,000 miles on it.
Retail value of that truck. If you went out and try to buy one just like it I'm aware is about $900 and I'm sure that most insurance is would come along that backstretch was about $900 of that many miles on so make it even $86,000 $1000 if old red for $2000 now you get in a very minor accident. It would not take much what it very minor accident, a bumper front bumper radiator support that it is that your you're looking at $1200 before you can hardly so 70%. What the heck I mean you your you're over the hundred and 1020 minutes total. Although it just hurt the pump so those options the bumpers like $400 and oh by the way, you got a payment so that's another hundred and 50 and then what's the salvage value of old red, which turns out to about 200 and Snyder at 700,000. 70% received it met the criteria to be told that all it needed was the pump are you kidding, this is where to get all this when we come back we got galas can help us out with when you say goodbye and we need your call 866-34-TRUTH 7880 and not the show are Windsor relationship a total loss as a church, a total loss from Jesus perspective not from our perspective, but from his perspective.
What is that look like I would love to know what your thoughts are certainly discussing 866-34-TRUTH 87884 is a number to call 86634 truth and course I do want to mention the Christian card theater episode 19 just played know how fun was that Christian card I theater pride takes a ride is been going on now for a while and I need to point out something I think is really cool. It is actually my father that is playing the grandfather to his actual granddaughter because Allie is my daughter Mariah and so your hearing bottom one was my father speaking as the grandfather of Allie, which is actually again.
His real granddaughter which is my Place apartment we have all these other amazing actresses like an alternate was an adventurous odyssey in the Bonnie who plays the grandmother to Allie and this is been in over 100000 Have Acute Pl. Randy radiator he wasn't Dennis the Menace and all sorts of movies that I mean these people are when it got really blessed us with some amazing talent and so I would mention that if you go to Christian card. I.com you can listen to all 19 episodes a Christian card I theater or any past episode of the Christian card I show or if you get to hear the rest of the day and you want to figure out when you pull the plug on a relationship or whatever from Jesus perspective and go back and listen to podcasts based Christian card. I.com and we are going to get to an update on the Jesus labor love car repair labor for single moms with so many wonderful donations here in the last couple weeks on tell you some that God's doing through that so we right now have galas in Charlestown Indiana colony in I think you are, you listen on W FIA out of Louisville wonderful were so grateful that the carrier, so there what you got for us all, and I'm probably expert on the object, but it would take to get after my divorce being a Christian my entire life very different outlook.
I then got in, like maybe your life ended up with two divorce and that first of all, were not going with the car would not go so what I found in afraid that I coined several years of working life. Your client takes to people can think of marriage one could break at a Catholic that reminds me of that shake the dust off your finale thinking on that. Like you looking like a car, your deal with individual account. In my first marriage life all the bad exceed the good and I had to little children.
Father had left the church had left God and I finally had to link the dictation to leave that marriage to protect my children future and my second marriage like that the children were older and now third child and when I laughed talking to me. Unbeknownst to her the other day me and for another, down, and how sorry daddy and track the way he acted. I don't want to hear that was when I decided at that time again.
You know, Grant graduated from Christian college all that that has been graded. But I began to make the children in the future. Talking to me. I don't hearing my apology okay I got a make it efficient tell you today all these years later, like 20 years later the Lord their father. Now I can't turn them I left that relationship.
But here's the difference that I can think of the kids life.
They remained in the child's life.
They Decided to start is like an contributor to contaminate her whole relationship relationship with God. Obviously Mary, I'm so glad I was hoping because you know people we find ourselves in situations that we don't know the place that I find myself and often and I know you do to Jerry is at some point you have to go to Jesus and you have to abide there because you really can't figure this out. As you know in your heart that there's no way that I personally can figure this out but I when I heard a news story was that in prayer and study and asking for help in situations that seem totally impossible and and also what you said that you know marriage is to when I own the object like a car and whatever that different things so there's a lot of wisdom to glean from that gala. What would you add some there is (yeah, you know, the thing is situations like that, it think prayer and going to God. God's word commitment search the Bible search search where God would have you go in that and I think so many times we we think that that that God's answer is that he wants us to be happy but think you said to look into God's word and see where it where it leads us and he definitely wants us to be close to him which a lot of times where that person but nonetheless I am so grateful Gail that you have the courage to share that on the air and what you went through in and God bless you so much and and will be praying for that those children because we know there's a lot of stuff there that that's difficult and for you as well. God bless you. Thank you, Gail what we would love to hear your Lynn is from Jesus's perspective you done with the relationship were done with a church you know just a friendship want what is orbit of our ministry that you're involved. 866-34-TRUTH 87884 866-34-TRUTH. Of course this all started from the standpoint of and we are talking about old red that it was called red if it were to have a bumper and the next thing you know it was in a call six or seven dollars. It would exceed between the salvage value of old red and the amount of money that it would take to fix it. It would exceed 70% of the value of what you could buy another truck like my 95 Dodge Dakota so I the rules of most insurance companies. This would be deemed a total loss. Now what is that mean exactly. Jerry from the owner standpoint what your car is totaled what now what are your options that you know that's the thing about people don't realize their your options in that and one you know is you mentioned.
I think people either.
You know doesn't really matter to them because they don't have a connection with the car or it really doesn't matter because it's just an automobile and and and money isn't really a factor form. Well, a lot of times a connection with the car and money is a factor. So a lot of times people want a car to be totaled and other times are people just really devastated when the vehicle was totaled.
There's a lot of reasons for that connection with the cars you would be with all read is the fact that you have it connection with the car you had that cart and that truck is a lot more value for you then book value, and so that sort of factors in and is also those who have gone out and got loans and out more for vehicle then walked that the banner of DSO interest comes only to pay you the value of that vehicle. Not what you have bargained on that vehicle and that's what this is that the good question for for Bill when he's on here is that gap insurance how important that can be if you know that you've overextended on the vehicle because it can save your hat. A lot of times by heaven that is relative.
Act as if they totally carless going that.
And let's say you owed $15,000 on car insurance company. We paid you 10 is a total loss.
Will you now that does not keep you from having to make the rest of the payments on that car. They give you $10,000 to pay towards that car, but you're still on the hook for the other 5000 you know always have a good vehicle and you still owe money so it's a bad situation but you said before that problem but you're exactly right in the lungs is cheapness in the area that you probably everyone. If you if you know you owe more on the vehicle that it did value of this test that lies but the other piece is you know if you do, but the interest, you can always buy back the vehicle and there you go again, this really does get into a lot of conversation because you need to know what the cost is to put that vehicle back on the right. I have more on this discussion of what is a total loss was a total loss to Jesus and we would love your call.
I'm serious. I love this 8663487884866348788474? I show total law perspective now we been talking about this total loss formulas DLF insurance companies and the formula is and will go over this again slowly because I want to be considerate from the standpoint of salvation is that the value of the repairs plus the salvage value is greater than the value of the vehicle. So that's what that's a total loss formula. But if we just take that from the standpoint of simplicity for my how much is going cost to fix it versus what's it worth a look at that from God's perspective now on. Robbie Gilmore, how much is it going to cost to fix Robbie. It's gonna cost my son's life. It is going to cost unbelievable torture to my only begotten son it is going to cost all his blood. It's gonna cost more than any value of anything that's ever been paid in the history of creation. Nothing is ever been paid more than what it cost to fix Robbie to solidify look at Pat and Mike and I begin to just conceive. Now let's Robbie salvage value well on times is equal.I've always been told so all I got is is this phenomenal pace beats that that price that God paid. But what does that say about what my value must be to Jesus to the Lord.
What what that what is that say in order for that equation to have worked. The way that it did, that God must really really really really really see some value in Jerry but he must see some value in Robbie that how could I then now, this is Mike and I'm not talking about marriage is will people are abusive or fathers that you know IIII don't know about that but here I got just an ordinary friendship goes on all the time.
Okay Christian friends out isn't that Christian friend that Jesus paid that from nominal price nominal price to redeem isn't my loving that friend and mentor in a relationship, not breaking off the relationship because he can't love the guy. If I don't not around them anymore. I can't you know if I break off that relationship just because of some offense or whatever. What is it say about the value of what Christ did. And in that there is my real dilemma is honestly and I'm in the middle of a couple of those right now I feel people would reply I'm like okay what can I do to reconcile this and I'm getting no answer, and I'm really part II don't know how to put the stamp that the thing is, sometimes we we think we should be able to fix it but you know what into the day all we can do is Christlike and that is to to love them and seek forgiveness but to know that note, that's between him and them in our Lord and Savior, and that something is human side of us as hard to accept. Sometimes as you think I should be able to fix this person, Jesus Christ has to fix it on that night I went and it was 17 I love them and pray and Percocet. You know that's the we can talk to him. Yes, you know he knows what's going on I don't I just talk to him along those lines. Those of you have been praying for the Jesus label of car repair labor for single moms with those who have contributed to the Jesus labor left. You know, nothing makes your heart go pitter pat been like yours. This lady and you know you she's got all these kids school starting. She's got no breaks. She's got no way to get them to school.

That's just I see so many people that that that that's something there like that's real and so hurtful and some we can be praying that God will redeem that somehow I don't know how he doesn't but it's that's really heart.
