Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Duck Room Banter, Tall Tales & Food Fights

• The gang kick things off with random stories, gift talk (a hand-painted army man), and a running bit about needing the right rocks for a homemade slingshot (04:00–07:00).
• Memorable Moment: The group debates how many Chick-fil-A nuggets and sandwiches they could down at the world’s only all-you-care-to-eat Chick-fil-A buffet in Norman, OK.
  “I could eat 100 nuggets.” – John David (17:56)
  “I ate a bag of Lays.” – Si (24:10)

2. The Great Church Tradition Mysteries

Communion Rituals Gone Awry

• The hosts discuss how handling communion and offering traditions have changed—communion in packets vs. served, the loss of passing trays, and the universally loathed “styrofoam bread.”
  Timestamps: 27:00–29:15

• Quote:
  “There is nothing worse than when you get the little packet with the piece of Styrofoam they call bread…and it sounds like somebody’s crinkling up a bag of chips through the whole church.” – Doug (28:13)

• Discussion on denominational differences:

  • Catholics, Baptists, Church of Christ, Pentecostals, and Assemblies of God handle communion differently. (28:35–30:35)
  • Observations on how what’s “normal” in one church can be bizarre in another.
  • Martin reflects on uncertainty:
    “It is a confusing topic that is covered in there.” – Martin (42:08)

Speaking in Tongues & Pentecostal Experience

• The guys swap experiences with charismatic churches, particularly the confusion and skepticism that comes with speaking in tongues and the practice of having “interpreters” (31:00–33:38).

• Martin (Justin):
  “I’m not gonna limit anybody’s faith interaction…But I’ve never done it. I grew up my whole life in it. I’ve never felt led to speak in tongues.” (32:08)

• Honest confusion about whether modern manifestations match up with scripture (Acts & Pentecost).
  “If it’s the biblical way…it should be in plain English.” – Martin (33:45)

• Si’s take:
  “You gotta use your common sense. Why would the Son of God be able to do all this miraculous stuff? …The miracles were in play for one reason. That’s the Son of God.” (35:57–37:23)

Snake Handling and Revival Stories

• Si recounts accidentally attending a church where snake handling was a thing: “When they brought them out…Where y’ all want a door? I’m about to knock a hole in that wall, I’m out of here.” – Si (45:47)

• Martin shares about witnessing dramatic revival scenes:
  “They get up there, pray for, and when I tell you they fall out, buddy…they ain’t got a headache, ain’t got a knot…So for that person, the Spirit had to do something with it.” (43:01–44:11)

3. Openness vs. Judgment in Faith

• The hosts agree that it’s not their place to judge someone’s faith experience—even if it looks “weird.”

• Quote:
  “I never want to take the wind out of your sail…If you’re like, and believe it, I’m not going to try to steer you wrong…” – Si (47:15)

• Discussion about learning from other denominations:
  “You can learn something from each other.” – Si (50:06) “If you’re not against us, you’re for us.” – Doug, quoting Mark 9:38–41 (51:07)

• They poke fun at their own traditions, recognizing the universal weirdness outsiders perceive: “We all get hung up on our own little bitty legalistic…” – Doug (49:53)

• The conversation closes with a reminder:
  “If they’re preaching Jesus, don’t get hung up on the little technicality.” (51:25)

---

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• On the “Chick-fil-A Buffet”
  “Diners can enjoy as many sandwiches, nuggets and waffle fries for how much they want—for $16.” – Doug (17:11)
• Food challenges
  “I hate to tell you, I’ve only been in a couple of food eating competitions, and both of them involved Johnny D, and he whooped my butt in both of them.” – Martin (18:33)
• On the confusion in diverse church practices:
  “I did it for a month and I was like, is this for me?” – John David (42:11, on Assembly of God services)
• On openness:
  “I never want to attack anybody for what they believe…if I do, then I’m in the wrong 100%.” – Si (47:54)
• On unity:
  “We all have the label Christian, then we put this extra label on ourselves, and then we’re more…banging that drum than the Christian drum.” – Doug (51:21)
• On Jesus’ core teaching:
  “The only way he could pull it off—he loved perfectly.” – Si (41:29)

Conclusion: Why Church Traditions Are Still So Confusing

By turning a humorous, sometimes irreverent, but always honest eye on church rituals—from communion confusion to snake-handling panic—the Duck Call Room brings into focus just how bewildering interpretations and traditions can be, even for longtime believers. The crew’s message is ultimately one of humility and unity: question, explore, laugh—but don’t judge others’ sincere attempts to follow Jesus. As always, they wrap the show with scriptural reminders about loving well and not sweating the small stuff:

“If they’re preaching the truth of the gospel…then don’t stop them. Because whoever is for us is not against us.” – Doug (51:25)

This summary captures the heart, humor, and thoughtful questions from this deeply Duck Commander episode—a perfect primer for anyone curious why there’s so much debate (and fun) around church traditions in America.

[Doug]

Hey, I prefer nobody to want to talk to me.

[Hunter]

B.

[Doug]

If I'm going to talk to somebody, I'd like it to be Hunter.

[Hunter]

I have. I have mine on auto.

[Doug]

Oh, no, never. You got to keep receipts in case anybody comes at you.

[Hunter]

I don't need receipts from 2016.

[Doug]

The fourth biggest conversation I had was Hunter.

[John David]

[Hunter]

Oh, lots of gifts.

[Doug]

I deleted it.

[Hunter]

Pictures.

[Doug]

Sorry. I can't go back and prove that. But I was like. I don't really.

[John David]

Don't even text that. What is that?

[Doug]

Need all.

[Hunter]

What is what, Hunter?

[John David]

A little action figure.

[Doug]

You're in charge of the room, Hunter.

[Phil]

Oh, that Come in. The kid sent it to me.

[Hunter]

Oh, was that in the potholders?

[Phil]

No, that was in the little envelope.

[Hunter]

Oh, okay.

[PhD Weight Loss Spokesperson]

There you go.

[Hunter]

Sorry.

[Phil]

He wrote me a nice. His mother wrote me a nice letter.

[Hunter]

Oh, that's nice. Well, I saying that.

[Phil]

Yeah, he's a big fan of mine and, you know, he thanked me for my service and.

[Hunter]

And gave me a little hand painted army man. I like it. That's cool, man. Toy story fives out.

[Doug]

So I hadn't seen it yet. My daughter's very upset with me.

[Hunter]

Hey, your slingshots came here.

[Doug]

He's so lucky it's raining. Otherwise we'd be out there chunking rocks at a well.

[Phil]

No, no, I gotta find me. Yeah, I gotta go to. To give me some good rocks, but I'm probably going to have to make. Make the. The only leather part I get an old boot.

[Hunter]

Why you think Stone got good rocks, huh?

[Phil]

I've seen them in his yard.

[John David]

Are they like the driveway gravel?

[Phil]

Oh, yeah, they're round and, you know,

[Doug]

and Stone got that good pea gravel he got.

[Hunter]

River rock, huh?

[Doug]

Yeah, that's what it's called.

[Phil]

I don't know where he got it, but he's got a rock in his. In his flower or K did.

[Hunter]

Oh, and the flyer bed. Oh, yeah, that's river rock. Yeah. Yeah, that's what they put in fly

[Doug]

still the man's river rocks.

[Phil]

Hey, I'm gonna give me a handful of them.

[Hunter]

I'm gonna be like, david, he didn't pay for them. Al did. You're fine. Go ahead.

[Phil]

Oh, I'm gonna get a few rocks. Hey, if they say something about it, I just say, hey, look.

[Hunter]

Hey, call me David.

[Phil]

Suck it up.

[Hunter]

Yeah, stand out there, Goliath.

[John David]

You actually earn those rocks.

[Phil]

Get out there. Get out there. And bad meth material.

[Hunter]

Yeah. Catch. Yes.

[Doug]

To be fair, if you showed up to any of our houses and took something, it would be like, well, yeah, I don't care. Yeah, you. You. You're the reason we own a lot of things.

[Hunter]

Yeah. Hey, anything you want in my house, you got, so maybe not anything. I gotta anything at mine.

[Phil]

Let me show you this. It's. This is.

[Hunter]

He said he needs a bigger tongue.

[Phil]

Well, it's. It's why it needs to be wider and it needs to be where it's flexible. This here is too stiff.

[Doug]

Cheap crap off. I am. Would you get that off a Teemu Martin?

[Hunter]

No, I got it off Amazon, but I mean, I don't know.

[Phil]

These are not, you know, people that know what they're doing with the sling maker.

[Hunter]

Well, they clipped me for $25, so I don't care. It's worth it to see whatever's going

[Phil]

to pay you back.

[Hunter]

No, I ain't worried about that.

[Doug]

We going to get. We got.

[Hunter]

This is worth $25 for what may ever happen. See? How do you let go?

[Doug]

I have no.

[Hunter]

I have no idea how to shoot one.

[Phil]

No, no, no, no.

[Hunter]

Well, like the only one that I even know how. Oh, headsets off. For those of y'. All.

[Doug]

He's going to.

[Hunter]

For those of y' all listening and not watching, I, I, I don't think

[John David]

you're in front of a camera.

[Hunter]

I strongly recommend our camera. So I get right up here in front of the tv. That way we can see what you're doing. If you're just listening, first and foremost,

[Phil]

you make your loop.

[Hunter]

You might see a loop.

[Doug]

You do have the bite by play, Martin.

[Hunter]

Okay? And I don't know that.

[Phil]

Hey, you get a round rock.

[Hunter]

Get a round rock. Round, flat rock.

[Phil]

Hey, it needs to be flat.

[Hunter]

A round, flat rock.

[Phil]

Arrow arrow. Dynamic.

[Hunter]

Aerodynamic.

[Phil]

He says, boys, where it don't, it don't. You know, it don't take up. It ain't bit going against the wind. It's cutting the wind.

[Hunter]

He cut. And then, hey, we got to cut that wind.

[Doug]

So we both have our phones out.

[Hunter]

Oh, I'm posting this today.

[Phil]

And then

[Hunter]

there wasn't a light.

[Phil]

Well, see, and I ain't even got it cranked up.

[Hunter]

Yeah, you ain't even got it cranked up.

[Phil]

And I ain't even got this thing. Hey, because, hey, when you get to really going, this thing will go

[Hunter]

that arm flat. That arm flap ain't even got to moving yet, y'.

[Sports Commentator]

All.

[Phil]

And then when you get ready to release it, all, you do. Oh, you got this in your hand.

[Hunter]

You let go, let go.

[Phil]

And hey, like I told you before, we put sticks on ours about that long. Well, once you got swinging that stick and when it got that one

[Doug]

angle, though, we might have to combine our videos.

[Phil]

Wherever that stick is pointing, that's where that rock's gonna hit.

[Hunter]

Normally, normally, I'd take the time to edit that video, but I'm just gonna post.

[John David]

Make sure to send me both of y' all angles.

[Doug]

I'm gone.

[Hunter]

I'm gonna sleep. Hey, don't worry. You can check it out on my Facebook page here in about 20 minutes.

[Doug]

Put your ears back on.

[Phil]

Yo. Phil was a pitcher in high school and in college on baseball team and, and played football through football. So when he put one of these on his hands, when you talk about throw it,

[Doug]

could he throw it all the way to Chick Fil A?

[Phil]

Probably. I'm serious.

[John David]

I thought you were about to.

[Phil]

Well, he could throw. He could throw football 100 yards. Okay.

[Doug]

Watching the videos we've.

[Phil]

Okay, you just say it. It don't look, but you go out on. Get on the field 100 yards long and watch somebody throw one. 100. It's it's. It's. You know, it's impressive once I get my slingshot made. Right? Okay, y' all have to film me. Yo, wind her up, Thor.

[Hunter]

Don't you worry, buddy.

[Phil]

Well, no, no.

[Hunter]

That's going to be the follow up to this one.

[Phil]

No, no.

[Hunter]

Slingshot engaged.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[Hunter]

How do we do this?

[Phil]

I'm saying you're going to be impressed.

[Hunter]

I'm already impressed. Well, no, no, I'm impressed. In the belief system that you have in place in yourself, never a doubt. I may never.

[Doug]

You go, I only know one other man like this, and he's 12, and he thinks he's going to be president. Full belief in anything he says.

[Phil]

If he gets 25 or 30 and he's president, I don't. What are you going to do?

[Doug]

I think he can do it.

[Hunter]

Let me tell you what I'm do. I'm going to go the Oval Office, and I'm going to. Hey, I'm about to go hang out with Carter.

[Phil]

Hey, Carter, we come to visit.

[Hunter]

You know how good that White House Mac and cheese going to be when he gets there? Go. Unbelievable. The whole reflecting pool will just be Mac and cheese. And I'm in on that.

[Doug]

That sounds a lot better. Why are people so mad about the pool? Sigh. Oh, we about to go political.

[Hunter]

No. Do you see the dead duck in there?

[Phil]

Oh, yeah.

[Hunter]

They said they blamed it on the. The algae killing a duck.

[Phil]

And I'm like, oh, I know. I don't think so.

[Hunter]

Well, it's a baby duck. You do realize. Well, I'm saying the chance of a baby duck making it, period, is slim. Yeah, like, they got a lot going

[Phil]

against, but I don't think algae is what go down, man.

[Hunter]

No, it ain't. Okay, but it made for a good headline. Well, you know, I just. Here's the first time in my life I've ever commented on a political post.

[Doug]

You did?

[Hunter]

Yeah, because you know who posted it? The Facebook page. Democrats. But I just went to the comments and said, can we get the same kind of energy for the prairie pothole region that actually produces wild ducks over these tame ducks, you know, and, yeah, it fell on deaf ears up in there. Nobody wants to talk about taking care of our real stuff, but somebody's pet duck done wandered over there to the reflecting pool and had a baby and died. And all of a sudden, national emergency. Never forget the one that produces all of the ducks. Now, granted, I want more ducks because I want more ducks to shoot at. I get the irony here. But I also get the Irony of y' all caring about somebody's pet mallard that got out.

[Doug]

Oh, there was a pet mallard in our neighborhood. Got hit by a car the other day.

[Hunter]

It happens. They're not smart.

[Doug]

I once hit a mallard going down Arkansas Road, and I was like, oh, no. Okay, he's going to get out the way. And then he turned and looked straight at the bumper of my truck and took it beak first.

[Hunter]

Yeah. Good for him, man.

[John David]

My. My aunt had a. I don't know if it was a mallard or not, but she had a pet duck in her, like, duplex apartment in Ruston and was like, oh, we need to go.

[Doug]

What, indoors?

[John David]

Yeah.

[Hunter]

Oh, yeah. Baby ducks are gross.

[Phil]

Oh, yeah.

[Hunter]

They crap more than they do anything.

[John David]

So my Aunt Brandy, she. She opened the door.

[Phil]

You don't want baby chickens.

[John David]

Timeout.

[Hunter]

Did you say Aunt Randy?

[John David]

Brandy.

[Hunter]

Oh, okay.

[John David]

The song.

[Hunter]

You're a fine. Yeah,

[Phil]

well, that's my mom's favorite. Peace, Brandy. That's good stuff.

[Hunter]

Oh, Brandy's fine. I just thought you said Aunt Randy, and we're just gonna have to talk.

[John David]

Well, she. She opened the door and it's waddling down, like, in front of her apartment. Then all of a sudden, their duck dog just shoots out the apartment and just eats it.

[Hunter]

Yeah. Doing what he was trained to do. Yeah, that's good. Get him. It's just kind of violent.

[John David]

Yeah.

[Hunter]

Some really sad person wrote a letter to the duck. The duck, yeah. About how America has failed you.

[Phil]

Oh, hi. That's right. America failed him.

[Hunter]

And buy more duck Stamps, y'. All. Save the duck. Buy more Duck Stamps. You want to save the ducks, Buy more Duck Stamps.

[Doug]

Oh, yeah. It's a whole political thing.

[Hunter]

Oh, of course.

[Doug]

But here's the best part. He accidentally ended it like he is a Duck Dynasty member. Quack Quack Jack.

[Hunter]

Because the dude side. Did you write?

[Doug]

The dude's name that wrote it is Jack

[Hunter]

Jack.

[Phil]

Well, I've been looking for that clown all my life.

[Hunter]

Like, look at there. Hey, you gonna have to hit. You're gonna have to hit him for, like, trademark infringement or something with Quack Quack Jack. So, yeah, bring it. Bring it up.

[John David]

When did Duck Dynasty start airing? Was it like, 2013 12?

[Doug]

March 21, 2012.

[John David]

I've been watching the series called Psych. And then, like, the main character, Sean Spencer, like, every now and then, he ends his sentences with Jack. Kind of like Psy. I've been trying to figure out who. Who stole it from who.

[Phil]

Well, no, no, we tried to come up with where it started.

[John David]

Yeah.

[Phil]

Can't figure it out.

[John David]

Did you ever watch Psych around 2012, 2013?

[Hunter]

Oh, he was saying it way before then and confirmed I was. So I was on Jack as early as about 2005 was when I met him.

[Doug]

There's a lot of time.

[Hunter]

And I'm assuming it was prior to then, too, because it didn't seem like something new.

[Phil]

I wasn't new. Yeah, I went way back, and we tried.

[Hunter]

I talked about two people all the time, Jack. Well, really, we don't ever know how many there are. But you had Jack and The boys.

[Phil]

Come on, boys.

[John David]

And the boys.

[Hunter]

I don't know how many boys there

[Doug]

were, but a lot of boys.

[Hunter]

But he. He always would say, come on, boys. I can't.

[Phil]

Well, hey, here's a question.

[Hunter]

We just assumed. He was always talking about us like we were still there, even though we weren't.

[Phil]

But, like, here's your question. Are they gonna ever fix the reflective poo? I thought that's the whole thing.

[Hunter]

Yeah, I think they are fixing it, aren't they? I don't.

[John David]

I just thought they were just going to argue with each other over it.

[Doug]

Do you want to know? I'm going to say something right now. We have an email that we. I've been trying to get to for 30 minutes because it's proof that this is the greatest country on earth and we don't even need a reflecting pool.

[Hunter]

The reflecting polo. Do you think Jenny had anything to do with it?

[Doug]

That's probably part of the problem. Your people in the 70s were.

[Hunter]

Remember when she just went running through

[Doug]

it around the reflection?

[Phil]

Who wasn't running through it?

[Doug]

Jenny.

[Hunter]

Off a Forrest Gump. Oh, when they were talking about.

[Phil]

Now we're going. Now we're going. Blaming Forrest Gump like President Trump. Well, I'll tell you what, you people.

[Doug]

I always got to blame somebody. But you know what you can't blame?

[Phil]

You're a bunch of whiners and pisser. All you do, everything you can't tap, you piss on.

[Hunter]

Just like a bunch of young kids.

[Phil]

You try to tear up everything they trying to.

[Doug]

But you want to know why they're all not full of joy? Because they don't live in Norman, Oklahoma.

[Hunter]

Norman. That's where the Sooners are.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[Hunter]

They just won a national championship and baseball. Boomer soon.

[Phil]

You know what? I'm the wagon drivers.

[Hunter]

Congratulations. I will.

[Doug]

Hey, do you know that there is a historic landmark in Norman, Oklahoma?

[Hunter]

I mean.

[Phil]

Yeah. So Buffalo.

[Doug]

No. Zachary from Norman emailed in and told me of a place that I didn't know existed, and I looked it up.

[Phil]

Well, you got my curiosity.

[Doug]

University of Oklahoma's couch restaurant features the only all you care to eat. Chick fil a buffet in the world.

[John David]

All you care to eat.

[Doug]

I don't know why they say it like that. It seems more proper. Because they're Chick fil a.

[Hunter]

Well, yeah. It takes gluttony away from it. Maybe because it's not a challenge. All you can.

[Doug]

Diners can enjoy as many sandwiches, nuggets and waffle fries for how much they want for $16.

[PhD Weight Loss Spokesperson]

All right.

[John David]

Doesn't sound bad.

[Hunter]

I guess I'm going to Norman.

[Doug]

That's the greatest thing that's ever happened to me.

[Hunter]

I guess.

[Phil]

What.

[Hunter]

What were the sandwiches? Nuggets and waffle fries.

[Doug]

What more could you want?

[Phil]

What else could you want for $16?

[John David]

I'm with John David.

[Hunter]

Oh, I know. I'm just trying to figure out in my mind, I'm trying to think of how many of those nuggets I could eat for 16 bucks. It's a bunch of.

[Doug]

I think I can eat 100.

[John David]

Yeah, I think I can eat 100.

[Doug]

I could eat 100. Calm down. Mr. Can throw rocks. A chick fil a. Yes. I could eat 100. Chicken. You got 800 chick fil A. I could 100 nug.

[Hunter]

Nuggets.

[Doug]

I could eat five sandwiches.

[Hunter]

Yeah.

[John David]

42.

[Doug]

You could eat 42 sandwiches or nuggets.

[John David]

Nuggets.

[Phil]

100 chicken nuggets.

[Hunter]

42 is a very specific number.

[Doug]

Not the grilled ones before.

[John David]

Do what?

[Hunter]

Have you done this before? No, it's now. The grilled ones are kind of like chicken bubble gum. The grilled nuggets, they're not great.

[Phil]

I might see Bart meat. 100 maybe. I don't think you could eat 100.

[Hunter]

I hate to tell you, I've only been in a couple of food eating competitions, and both of them involve Johnny D. And he whooped my butt in both of of them.

[Doug]

So I'm like a young Joey Chestnut.

[John David]

What food competition?

[Doug]

We were in a hot dog eating contest on the loading dock one time.

[Hunter]

Yeah? Yeah.

[Phil]

Well, how about this?

[John David]

What's the second one?

[Phil]

How much is this?

[Hunter]

Yeah. In fact, I've been in a donut eating competition with sign lost. I'm not. I can't eat as much as you think I can.

[John David]

I've never done a food eating competition.

[PhD Weight Loss Spokesperson]

I don't.

[Hunter]

It ruins whatever food you're after.

[Doug]

I didn't eat a hot dog for another couple years. Years.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[Hunter]

Now he's got a roller. He's reformed.

[Doug]

I'm back.

[Hunter]

He made it.

[Phil]

He's back.

[Doug]

I think. What did I eat that day?

[Phil]

It.

[Hunter]

We did many of them.

[Doug]

We did, like, the legitimate.

[Hunter]

I stood with you for a while, and then I was like, I can't. I can't.

[Doug]

I think I got 12 down in 10 minutes.

[Hunter]

Yeah. I was like, I can't. I can't do this.

[Doug]

I was going to do the local one here in town.

[John David]

There's a local one?

[Phil]

Oh, yeah.

[Doug]

Every Fourth of July put on by that Coney Island.

[John David]

Really?

[Doug]

Yeah.

[Phil]

Coney Island.

[Hunter]

What are they chili dogs or just.

[Doug]

No, just regular dogs.

[John David]

I didn't know.

[Doug]

The problem is the. The prize is just big enough for some, you know, ringer to show up and whoop everybody.

[Hunter]

Oh, really?

[Doug]

Yeah.

[John David]

I forget what it was I went to.

[Doug]

You know Chris?

[Hunter]

Huh?

[Phil]

The owner, Cody Island?

[Hunter]

No, I don't know Chris Lewis. My basement like onions. That whole place smell like chopped onions. That ain't even. That's not a knock on them. That's just one of their toppings. And boy, it really permeates the air when you walk into a.

[Doug]

We ride down the road. One champion, countless hot dogs.

[John David]

Do you guys remember Malcolm Reed that came here?

[Hunter]

Yeah, Big Malcolm.

[John David]

Yeah.

[Hunter]

Yeah.

[John David]

So around the time that he came, me and my friends went to his thing called Wiener Fest.

[Doug]

Got to be a better name than that.

[John David]

No, that is the perfect name.

[Hunter]

You bought a T shirt, didn't you?

[John David]

They were sold out. I tried. I was. I was going to wear that around proudly, and then they were sold out. But he held a hot dog eating contest, and my friend Landon did it. I think he got, like, three hot dogs in before.

[Hunter]

He was just like, yeah, that's one of them deals that you're like, I could eat more. I could eat a lot of hot dog wieners. It's that bun that really throws. That's what throws the wrench into the things is that if it was just the weenies, like, okay, let's go.

[Phil]

They ought to do away with the

[Hunter]

bun and just have the wieners.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[Doug]

I feel like you'd accidentally swallow that hole when trying to go too fast. Got him.

[John David]

Have you ever seen that video of the guy that, like, does them back to back? Just. It just swallows.

[Doug]

How did you make that noise? You're welcome.

[Hunter]

Y' all gonna have to. We gonna have to do something here because now I'm about to make a bunch of wing noodles.

[Phil]

Just leave them tied together like when you make them.

[John David]

I don't think you can.

[Doug]

Wait, it's not bug bunny.

[Phil]

No, no.

[Doug]

Like spaghetti noodles.

[Phil]

Leave them tied together while you do. Just keep eating them. Now, what they ought to do. Here's what they ought to do. On hot dog eating contestants. You can only do, though, those wieners that pop.

[John David]

Can I send you that video?

[Doug]

I don't know what video we're talking about, but sure.

[John David]

Okay.

[Doug]

Is it possible to eat 100 chicken nuggets?

[Phil]

I don't know, but I. I will go pay for it. Oh, I don't think you can do it.

[Doug]

I just had a kolache. I'm not like prepared.

[Hunter]

That's actually when you need to do it. You don't go on an empty stomach. Empty, you end up full quicker. I probably hour after eating something Smash.

[Doug]

I would probably put a more in a bind over. Over French fries.

[Hunter]

I don't love their fries that much. Yeah, when you're looking good, man, since

[PhD Weight Loss Spokesperson]

I've been on this PhD weight loss, I'm telling you, I feel better. I got more energy, My belly's flatter, I'm having to buy new clothes. No joint pain. I got energy all of a sudden. And, man, it's just. It's just a big, big, big difference.

[Hunter]

There you go.

[PhD Weight Loss Spokesperson]

Most weight loss plans have one thing in common. They quit working eventually. And when that happens, usually the weight comes right back. But PhD weight loss is different. I'm 20 weeks in, 38 pounds down.

[Phil]

Oh, you got off your medication.

[PhD Weight Loss Spokesperson]

You know, I had that pre diabetes. I had to take pills every day. Okay, Took them and golly, it's been a month now.

[Hunter]

Look, what worked for you before doesn't always work again because your body fights weight loss every step of the way when it's under stress. GLP1 drugs can work as a quick fix, but they don't always take care of what's causing the problem in the first place. Ph.D. weight loss works with you to develop a plan that actually works with your body and focuses on restoring your metabolism for good so that your body stops fighting you. Look, the goal isn't to lose weight just once. It's to never have to do it again, y'.

[PhD Weight Loss Spokesperson]

All.

[Hunter]

And right now, you can call PhD weight loss and mention God. You'll get two weeks free in the program, and they'll pay for your food that's a $1,500 value, completely free. Call 864-64-4-1900 and say again. That's 864-64-4,1900 or visit my Ph.D. weight loss dot com.

[Phil]

Many potato chips. Can you eat a whole bag?

[Doug]

I don't. I've never gotten to the end of when I felt like I should stop. That's the problem with potato chips.

[Hunter]

Yeah, I just stopped because I feel guilty.

[Phil]

Oh, I. I ate a bag of Lays.

[Doug]

Yeah, I've eaten a whole.

[Phil]

The big bag.

[Doug]

I've eaten a whole sweet.

[Hunter]

You ate those prior to the World cup or is that advertising that they have on

[Phil]

whenever my wife. When I run out, they give me a new bag, I want to pour it in there. Then I'll. I'll start eating them, and I literally have to stop her. I'll eat the whole thing.

[Hunter]

Yeah, I feel that way. With, like, Cheez Its. I love Cheez It.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[Hunter]

And Cool Ranch Doritos. I love a Cool Ranch Dorito, but. God.

[John David]

Have you tried those, like, barbecue ones? I like bag way better.

[Hunter]

Really?

[John David]

Yeah.

[Hunter]

I don't know how you get better in Cool Ranch Doritos, man.

[John David]

They're good. I like the. The. The purple one, the sweet chili. Sweet, spicy chili. And then the barbecue ones are nothing.

[Hunter]

You're saying here surprising me?

[Commercial Announcer]

What?

[Doug]

You probably eat those blue Takis, too, don't you?

[John David]

No, I can't stand a Taki.

[Hunter]

Yeah, them talkies ain't hitting on much.

[Doug]

No, that'll set you on fire.

[Hunter]

Yeah, they're not very good.

[John David]

Olivia likes those, though. She'll.

[Hunter]

The blue Takis, all of them.

[Doug]

The problem with chips is that you. Those are the problem. Yeah, there's no. There's no.

[Hunter]

That's, like, chips and sauce.

[Doug]

There's no healthy plan.

[Hunter]

Yeah.

[Doug]

That includes chips.

[Hunter]

Well, chips and salsa at a Mexican restaurant, you're doing fine. And then you realize that every four chips you eat is a tortilla.

[Phil]

Yeah, okay.

[Hunter]

You're like, wow. Okay. I'm a pig. Like, I just ate 17 tortillas. Cool.

[Doug]

Small tortillas.

[Hunter]

They're still a tortilla. They still start out as a tortilla.

[Phil]

Is Mexican. And she brought me some sauce, you know, homemade. It's got. No way. It's called red. I.

[Doug]

You know, what color is it?

[Phil]

It's like crack. Like crack cocaine. You can't get off it. I'm serious.

[Hunter]

He said, you can't get off of it, boy.

[Doug]

What color is it called?

[John David]

Red. And it's like crack.

[Phil]

Look.

[Doug]

Hey, I would have been green.

[Phil]

It's a pint. It's a pint jar. And I ate the whole pint jar. I love chip.

[Hunter]

Yeah, I do, too.

[Phil]

Sauce is good with the big, big Alfredo chips.

[Hunter]

Yeah, the scoops.

[Phil]

Yeah, the scoops.

[Doug]

One of the saddest things I got going on in life right now is I'm refusing to eat anything not American until the World Cup's over. And I miss Mexico. That's all you got to do to talk my kids into going to eat Mexican. Y' all wanna go see that robot? At one time, it didn't show up to the table, though that person did. But my kids about booed the waiter. Here's your chips and salsa. They're like, you're not a robot, idiot. Get out of here.

[Hunter]

Imagine if they had one of them at Church passing out communion. A cat robot passing out communion at church. That'd be fun.

[Doug]

Awesome.

[Hunter]

Yeah, It'd take a while.

[Doug]

We should budget that.

[Hunter]

Might send that to Mr. Chris. Maybe he'll add that to his.

[Phil]

The robot deacons always changes stuff at church.

[Doug]

What?

[Phil]

Huh?

[Doug]

I'm in. Let's go down this road.

[Phil]

We don't know politics.

[Doug]

Let's talk about the church change.

[Phil]

No. Used to when you walk.

[John David]

I don't know the rules for this.

[Hunter]

Yeah, we're good.

[Phil]

Swinging doors in the back.

[Hunter]

Yeah.

[Phil]

They've got the safe that you drop your money. Check.

[Hunter]

Yeah.

[Phil]

And then they used to have. Okay. The emblems that you take communion with. Well, they took them away. Now they got to bring them to you.

[Hunter]

What, the communion stuff?

[Phil]

Yeah. Yeah. And I'm looking and said wait at Wise Fairy Road. Yeah.

[Doug]

They've always brought them to you.

[Phil]

No, they haven't.

[Hunter]

Oh, during. During COVID Did they get off of bringing them? You had to get it yourself.

[Doug]

That's what happened. He doesn't remember anything before 2009.

[Hunter]

Because the wildest thing I remember when I went to Washbury Road for the first time is when that little tray full of grape juice come around.

[Doug]

You know who filled that up?

[Hunter]

No.

[Phil]

Well, they went back to that.

[Hunter]

Wait, the tray full of grape juice?

[Sports Commentator]

Yeah.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[John David]

I'm confused.

[Phil]

They went back, and I'm still. I'm thinking, next. Why did you do that?

[Doug]

I got to call out all churches in America. There is nothing worse than whenever you get the little packet with the piece of Styrofoam that they call bread in it, and then the whole church opens the bread at the same time, and it sounds like somebody's crinkling up a bag of chips through the whole church.

[Hunter]

Yeah. And then you're rewarded with an unsalted, unleavened piece of Styrofoam.

[Phil]

That's Styrofoam?

[Hunter]

Yeah.

[Phil]

Sometimes a little low thing in there.

[John David]

I thought the communion was a Catholic thing.

[Hunter]

What.

[John David]

What denominations? Whitesberry. Or is it non denomination?

[Hunter]

Very Catholic.

[Doug]

Yeah, very. We just got canceled.

[Hunter]

But communion. Communion's a Jesus thing for you.

[John David]

Okay.

[Doug]

I just do in remembrance of me.

[Hunter]

Yeah, you take the bread.

[Doug]

I've got a weird theology thing on community.

[Phil]

It reminds you that bread is his body.

[John David]

Yeah, no, I know that.

[Phil]

And the. The juice is.

[Doug]

Everybody does it, so.

[John David]

They didn't do that at my Baptist church growing up.

[Doug]

Baptists don't do it all, but they

[John David]

did that at the Catholic church.

[Doug]

They do it all the time.

[John David]

Yeah, Yeah, I know that.

[Hunter]

So the CoC does it all the time.

[Doug]

Pentecostals are. They're just like, depends on the day.

[Hunter]

Yeah, I have.

[Phil]

Well, some of Pentecostals, yo.

[Doug]

I can't say that.

[Phil]

Special days. And they don't have Pentecostals.

[Doug]

They're a blast.

[Phil]

Weird.

[John David]

Well, I went. I went to a. A church. All I've ever known for an assembly of God. And. And that ain't Pentecostal.

[Doug]

That's Martin.

[Hunter]

Yeah.

[John David]

Oh, really?

[Hunter]

Oh, that's what I grew up in. Yeah. But it's very Pentecostal. Rooted.

[John David]

That. That church camp made me never want to go back.

[Hunter]

Why?

[John David]

Because they convinced 500 kids to speak in tongues at the same time. It was the scariest moment of my life.

[Hunter]

Moving in the spirit, man. It was convinced. What do you think this is a parlor trick?

[John David]

Well, I was told you're not supposed to.

[Hunter]

You think everybody was in on it?

[Phil]

Oh, boy.

[John David]

I was told you're not supposed to tell them to speak in tongues. That it comes naturally. And then they told them to.

[Doug]

We just.

[Hunter]

Yeah. This is something me and my grandfather talked about often. Assembly. No.

[Phil]

I feel sad because I had a guy one time said, man, you should have been with me last night. I said, why? He said, I went to a place and they spoke in tongues. And I said, well, what did they tell you? What did you learn from them? And he said, oh, they were speaking in tongues. And I said, well, wait a minute now.

[Hunter]

Now we're getting into ass, boys.

[Phil]

Wait a minute.

[John David]

We can change the subject.

[Phil]

I asked you the question.

[Hunter]

No, this is actually pretty good because I've been involved on these discussions, too.

[Phil]

It's fun. I said, you said they spoke in tongues. I said, I want to know what you learned from what they were saying.

[John David]

But I thought you weren't supposed to know.

[Phil]

Well, no, no, that's the point.

[John David]

Let me ask you these questions then, if that's okay.

[Doug]

10 minutes.

[Hunter]

Go ahead.

[John David]

Okay. So, like, I spent all week learning about this, right? And then I was told, like, you can't. It can't be translated because if you knew it, you would basically just implode. And then, like, no one knows what you're saying, and it's supposed to come naturally. And the last night I was there, like, all those things happened. Like this dude translated himself.

[Hunter]

Yeah, there. Yeah, there's. I mean, I've grown up in it, so I've been around it. Like, there always seemed to be. And it was never the same person, which is what's crazy that, I mean, would, in their mind Translate what the other people were saying. Almost like it was. It was a wild experience because, you know me, at that point in my life, I was a big doubter of a lot of that stuff. So I would pay attention and I was like, on the translations, I was listening to what they were talking in tongues. And on the translations, I would listen for repeated patterns, because a lot of times there would be repeated patterns in that and there would be repeated patterns in the translation. So I was like, at that point, I determined this about that. I'm not going to limit anybody's faith interaction, whatever you want to call that, with God the Father and the Holy Spirit. I'm not limiting. I'm not saying you can. I'm not saying you can't. It ain't for me to know, like. But I'm not going to limit your experience with whatever that is. Maybe that was what. It felt right for you. I've never done it. I grew up my whole life in it. I've never. I've never felt led to speak in tongues. I've never. And that's not like in there and denying it or whatever. Like, I. I've just never. Some people, it was a gift. There were some people that did it often. Right. And like, even at that deal, I was just at this past weekend up in Alabama, very charismatic church that I spoke at. And there were some people that come out of that water when we baptized them, speaking in tongues. And I was like, again, not for me. I just. I showed respect. I stayed quiet and let them have their moment with whatever that was with the Spirit. I don't. Is it real? Is it. That's not for me to determine. So on my end, I just, again, I let people have their experience, however that may be. I don't think it's necessary. I don't think that if you don't do it, you don't have the spirit. There are some that think that. So that was just my observation from growing up in it for roughly 30 years.

[Phil]

Yeah, but you got. You got to think of this in this, this.

[Hunter]

But I don't think I will say this.

[Phil]

I agree with you in a way.

[Hunter]

So what size said, it's not the same as what is described in the biblical times. Because if it were, I should have been able to understand it in plain English as it was translated. I shouldn't. There shouldn't be. If it's the biblical way of what happened in the day of Pentecost and all that in Acts, I should hear it in plain English. Not one person translated I should. I should hear that in my own language as it's going on According to the miracle that happened on the day of Pentecost. Look, you all know the Duck Call Room believes in a good night's rest and sleep sets the stage for the rest of your day.

[Phil]

I'll give you an example. Okay, I'll give you an example. The miracles. The miracles that the apostles done. The miracles especially that Jesus done. You gotta use your common sense. Why would the Son of God be able to do all this miraculous stuff? That's one thing with pointing to saying that dude right there is divine. That's the Son of God. Only God can do that kind of stuff. Cause here's the thing. People today, I've run into them everywhere. Show me a miracle. Look, you could see a miracle every five minutes of your life. And unless you believe that Jesus is the Messiah, you're going to die in your sins. Because a miracle won't save you. The miracles were in play for one reason. That's the Son of God. That's identifying who he is. Okay. Where there's beyond doubt. Can you do this? No. Can you raise dead meal? No. He can.

[Hunter]

That's one of them deals. Like, that was one of my deals. I mean, I asked my grandfather this. I was like, well, because in that whole deal, right, it's like they drank deadly poison and were not harmed. I said, I'll never see none of y' all drinking no deadly poison. Yeah, I mean, like that again. But I was a major doubter, right? Like I, I, you know, in my mind I was trying to figure it all out. And you got them that still do this, where they lay with the snakes and all that stuff, you know? And I'm like. And some of them get bit and they swell up and they turn black. And I'm like.

[Phil]

And they're missing fingers.

[Hunter]

Yeah.

[Phil]

And I'm, you know, it's, it's. There's stuff there that says, oh, no, you don't do this.

[Hunter]

Yeah. And I'm just like, oh. And some of the. Again, though, I'm not going to, I'm not going to limit somebody's spiritual experience and encounter.

[Phil]

I'm not. That's the deal about. Okay. You're being a stumbling block to that person if you do.

[Hunter]

Yeah. I'm not going to stand in that.

[John David]

So what is, what is White's Ferry?

[Hunter]

Is it Church of Christ?

[John David]

Church of Christ.

[Hunter]

Church of Christ. Founded, rooted in Church of Christ. It's technically non dom.

[Phil]

That's where all, that's where the rub comes on all of it. Where did all these names come from? Well, hey, who built the church? One person built it.

[John David]

So why do y' all do communion if it's non dom?

[Hunter]

Communion is a very non dom thing.

[John David]

Oh, I don't know. Like, again, I grew up Baptist for one reason. Catholic.

[Phil]

The Bible says, hey, you know, and this is the Son of God speaking, do this in remembrance of me.

[Hunter]

Yeah.

[Phil]

For who I am. For what I did, what I've done

[Hunter]

and what I'm going to do and

[Phil]

what I'm going to see. Cause here's the thing, past, present and future. He's in all of it. Here's what I'll do for you in the past. Here's what I've done for you presently. Here's what I'll do for you in the future. And that's why when you say, wait a minute, what do you remember it? I remember that man saying, hey, sit down over there, and I'm going to go to the cross to take care of this. Two problems you've got you go sit down and relax, and I will die for you.

[Hunter]

Yeah, I'll take the sin.

[Phil]

Ain't nobody else done that for me.

[Hunter]

Yeah, I'll take the sin problem and the death problem right now.

[Phil]

See, that's. And then you say, what are you supposed to remember? I remember what he did for me.

[Hunter]

The breads, the body, the wine.

[Phil]

If you ask Sal Robertson, are you guilty? Guilty as charged on all charges. I'm guilty on all of them. Because if you break one, you can't keep them. You can't keep them. Why do you think he came down? He can. He's kept them all.

[Hunter]

Every last one of them.

[Phil]

Every last one of them. You know why? Because he did one thing perfectly. Me and Phil come up with this. He did one thing perfectly.

[Doug]

You and Phil came up with this.

[Phil]

He loved the world. Didn't know. Make no difference what you did.

[Hunter]

They came up with it when they read John.

[Phil]

Well, no, it's proof in the Bible about it. But we said, hey, you got to realize something. He was a man. Yet this man was without sin. How did he pull it off?

[Hunter]

There you go.

[Phil]

And the only way he could pull it off, he loved perfectly.

[Hunter]

Amen to that.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[Hunter]

He didn't know he was going to get there from an. Oh, you can eat chicken fillet.

[Phil]

No, no.

[Doug]

I don't even know where we went. That's why we start with Communion. Then y' all went down the.

[John David]

Yeah, that was my fault. I was confused.

[Hunter]

That ain't your fault. I mean, it's a great question, and I think there are a lot of people that have questions about that. I mean, I've seen. Again, I grew up in it. So, like, you would see new people walk in and then that kind of stuff start happening, and they're just looking around like, oh, boy. And, you know, it's. It's a very confusing. It is a confusing topic that is covered in there.

[John David]

I did it for a month and I was like, for me?

[Sports Commentator]

What?

[Hunter]

Assembly of God?

[John David]

Yeah.

[Hunter]

Yeah. I did it for 30 years. Trust me, I'm. I'm well aware.

[Phil]

I don't ever want to steal.

[John David]

Yeah, yeah.

[Phil]

That's your enthusiasm about your religion.

[Hunter]

Yeah, yeah.

[John David]

I like. I like y'.

[Doug]

All.

[Phil]

Okay. That's why I don't say nothing.

[Hunter]

I'm not. I'm not going to live, you know,

[Phil]

I'm not going to knock the sale out of your. The wind out of your sale.

[Hunter]

Yeah. If that is.

[Phil]

If I do. I'm saying sinning when I do that, because I've taken you Down. I never want to do that.

[Hunter]

Now I will say, and some of that stuff, man, like, you know, you get in it and this. You really want to experience one. Go to a revival at one, buddy.

[John David]

What's a revival?

[Hunter]

Where they have.

[Doug]

Bring out your Bibles, jump in the pit and start a revival.

[Hunter]

Yeah. The. Where the angel of that said denomination show up. So I've been to those being the grandson of a preacher, and I will say this, man, I have seen people, they get up there and pray for and when I tell you, they fall out, buddy. I'm talking about like lights out, like gone. Hit the floor, like, thud on the concrete floor. And I'm sitting there myself thinking, oh, I know that hurt. Like in my mind I'm like, oh. And then they get up at whatever time later and there's no. They ain't got a headache. They ain't got a knot on their head. They ain't. I'm like. So I look at it and I'm like, well, for that person in this moment, the spirit had to do something with it because otherwise they should have cte. Like, they shouldn't be driving home. Right? Like, I mean, and they should be walking around here loopy.

[John David]

Yeah.

[Hunter]

And with a headache. And they're. They're talking to you like they just got out of bed, you know, so there is some of that. That is.

[John David]

You want to say hey to my friend Drake?

[Hunter]

No, I'm good.

[John David]

Okay.

[Phil]

Well, here's the thing.

[Doug]

Unless he'd like to come.

[Phil]

There's things that happen.

[John David]

He was.

[Phil]

There's things that happen that you can't explain.

[Hunter]

Yeah. And I saw it my whole life

[Phil]

and I saw offensive or like you said, I mean, you look and say, wait a minute, that dude just fell off of the. Off of the pulpit. And that's a four foot drop. And he.

[Hunter]

Yeah. And you're like.

[Phil]

He got up later and was there nothing wrong with it?

[Hunter]

Never stumbled, never nothing.

[John David]

Whoa.

[Hunter]

Yeah, I've seen it all, man.

[Sports Commentator]

So good.

[Phil]

So good, so good.

But if you're new and you walk in and say that you're like, or. All right, I probably need to get it. I need to find out if you

[Doug]

were 30 years of church of Christ where we didn't have instruments. And then friends that are.

[Hunter]

Which was just as bizarre. The first time I walked in there, they threw the note, the songs up on an overhead projector in the little

[Doug]

worship room, like from the grave here.

[Hunter]

I'm looking around like, what have I walked into here?

[Phil]

Well, no, no. Cuz I went to a church that handles snakes.

[Doug]

What?

[Phil]

Oh, yeah.

[John David]

What'd you say?

[Phil]

I went to a church that handled snakes. I didn't know it. Okay. And when they brought them out, started, I said, where Do y' all want a door?

[Hunter]

Yeah.

[Phil]

So I fixed to knock a hole in a wall I Out of here.

[Hunter]

Was that in Alabama?

[Phil]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Hunter]

I mean, that folks. That is not.

[Phil]

I.

[Hunter]

That is not a joke on Alabama.

[Doug]

Kind of.

[Phil]

They are handling.

[Hunter]

It just seems more prevalent when you get in the mountainous ranges.

[Phil]

They're. They're handling rattlesnakes like they ain't nothing.

[Hunter]

Yeah. Big, big, big timber rattlers.

[John David]

The. The church camp that I went to with, with the 500 kids speaking in tongues, they just locked the doors on me like I couldn't leave. I was like, this is too much for me. I'm gonna politely walk out. And then it was just, oh, I'm stuck.

[Phil]

How to kick that door down.

[Hunter]

Yeah, yeah, that ain't it.

[John David]

I hid in the bathroom for a good chunk of it.

[Doug]

It's weird because you do that at work too.

[Phil]

Here's the thing, Hunter.

[Hunter]

Were you watching reels there too?

[John David]

No.

[Phil]

Hey, look, what we're saying here, all of it can be backed up by scripture.

[John David]

Yeah.

[Hunter]

Yeah. And in their minds, the same thing that happened to them can be too.

[John David]

And so again, I'm not dogging on it.

[Hunter]

Yeah, me either. And I will never dog on it. I'll never again. I'm going to limit.

[Phil]

Like Martin said, this is one of them things. Okay. You have to back up your mind how you're going to handle it.

[Hunter]

Yeah.

[Phil]

Okay. And what I would tell people is, I never want to take the wind out of your sail.

[Hunter]

Yeah. If that helps you feel.

[Phil]

If you. If you're like. And believe it. I'm not going. I will try to actually steer you the right direction and say, well, here's what I think.

[Hunter]

Yeah, same. And I just hope that the same respect that I give and not limiting yours is given back to me and not limiting mine. So, you know, it's just a kind of.

[Phil]

Dude, I never want to attack anybody for what they believe.

[Hunter]

Yeah.

[Phil]

Okay. Because then I'm in the wrong 100% if I do.

[Hunter]

But the assembly of God, the Pentecostals and the Apostolics of the world, man, I'm here to tell you, they some fun places to go. They interesting, man. I can say that. Because I've been there. I'm not.

[Doug]

Well, that's why I didn't chime in.

[Hunter]

Yeah.

[Doug]

Because I was like, let you handle that one.

[Hunter]

Oh, man.

[Doug]

Because I got plenty of friends that are.

[Hunter]

Buddy, I'm sorry, man.

[Sports Commentator]

Oh.

[John David]

But.

[Doug]

And they're. And they're awesome people. And you know, I, I'm not gonna. I've studied the tongue thing, but I ain't.

[John David]

No, I was.

[Doug]

I ain't no theologian, so you ain't getting my opinion.

[John David]

I was church curious when I was in high school, so I went to a bunch of different.

[Hunter]

Yeah, Heck yeah. I think that's a good thing. I actually think as even adult. An adult, it is a great thing to do to go experience other people and other, other styles and other. You know, I don't, I don't think you should get down in it, but I think it's cool to go.

[Phil]

See, once you do what you're saying, you're not closed minded.

[Hunter]

Yeah. You have an open mind to everybody's reasons and experiences and all that.

[Phil]

You're not closed about. Oh, that's bunk.

[Doug]

I'm the most charismatic.

[Phil]

It ain't because you're making a judgment. Okay. That you're really not qualified to make.

[Doug]

Exactly.

[Hunter]

And where do we stand on women preachers? No, I'm kidding. Oh, I'm kidding.

[Doug]

Hey, I will say this.

[Hunter]

I'm kidding. Sadie and John Chris done went down that road. If you want to see that, go pop over to Net Positive.

[Doug]

Go pot up over there.

[Phil]

You speaking about that the first time

[John David]

we got a wrap. I'm sorry.

[Phil]

Oh, we got to wrap it up.

[Hunter]

We got a call again.

[Doug]

I got a Bible verse for us and I would. I was going to say, minute goes, I'm the most charismatic church of Christ kid that goes to a Baptist church in all town. So, you know, I'm, I'm. I don't know a lot. I. But we all got our weird. That's what I've learned in life. If you go hang out with a kid that grew up Pentecostal, you're going to be like, man, that's weird. You go hang out with a kid like me that grew up Church of Christ, they're going to be like, yeah, that's weird because we all get hung up on our own little bitty legalistic

[Phil]

Some of the greatest part of that.

[Doug]

Tell me the greatest part.

[Phil]

You can learn something from each other, everybody.

[Doug]

And a lot of times we get stuck in our own circles.

[Phil]

Looking over at the time, it'll open your eyes that, hey, you've been wrong about stuff. Yeah. So, hey, ease up, baby.

[Doug]

And we get up, back up, and we get stuck in our church looking at how some other church does it. We don't like that. And we're like, why don't they do communion every week? Or, why do they do it this way? Or why are they praying in a language I don't understand? Or. Or why are they letting a woman talk? And we get hung up on a lot of those things, and then we think, ugh, how could they? And that's why a lot of outsiders are confused, because we all have the label Christian. Then we put this extra label on ourselves, and then we're more. We're. We're banging that drum more than we're banging the Christian drum. But Mark 9:38,41 is an interesting little tidbit from Jesus of Nazareth. Teacher said, john, we saw someone driving out demons in your name, and we told him to stop because he was not one of us. Do not stop him. Jesus said, for no one who does a miracle in my name can in the next moment, say anything bad about me. For whoever is not against us is for us. Truly. I tell you, anyone who gives you a cup of water in my name because you belong to the Messiah will certainly not lose their reward. So that's a deep, deep scripture. And I ain't Jason, Al, or anybody like that. But to me, what that means to us today is when you see somebody preaching Jesus, don't get hung up on some little technicality. As long as they're preaching the truth of the gospel, that Jesus died, was raised again for the salvation of your sin, and we can all be together one day for eternity. If that's what they're preaching, then don't stop them. Because whoever is for us is not against us.

[Phil]

Amen. And John 3, 16 and 17. Same way everybody knows. 16 for God, so love the word. Seen his son 17. Okay. The man that is qualified to judge us, guess what? When he came down, he didn't come to judge us. And he said, that's him speaking theirs. Same thing. If they're preaching me, leave them alone.

[Doug]

Yeah, catch us next time. Right here on Unashacked. Sorry, I got a call.

[Commercial Announcer]

Real.

[Hunter]

We'll see y' all next time. We're out.

[Phil]

Sam.
