What is the Billy Graham Rule and its implications?
I am unashamed. What about you? Welcome back to Unashamed. We've explained this to you before. To you, you've had a day or two in between. We just have five minutes. We're kind of continuing our discussion. And Jason, we realized when we were getting ready to roll back in. We started your duck hunting story and somehow we got into dad and everything else. Then we never finished. We never finished. It's another unfinished story.
Well, we were talking about, you know, one of the guys that Phil was instrumental in bringing to the Lord was a guy that we know affectionately as Jersey Joe. And I've helped him in his growth process, not just being a Christian, but just learning how to be a Louisiana person. Right.
Which he now considers himself to be.
He's full Louisiana. And it was a bumpy relationship at first. It took us a few months to get over me saying, which this is going to sound horrible what I said. And maybe I probably should have said it better, but we're men. We're in a boat and there were three very large men in the front of the boat. And the boat was moving at one mile per hour. I told this story in a previous podcast. And the reason it was going that slow is because these three heavy men were on the front of the boat. And they're so heavy that it actually had the propeller of the motor out of the water. And I waited five minutes as we're drifting. We're just drifting toward the bank. And the propeller's above the water. It's above the water. Because I was waiting for one of them to realize.
We're never getting to the bank unless somebody moves back so the propeller can go under the water. But nobody wanted to be that person. But nobody moved. Nobody thought of it. They're not talking. They're all just looking. And we're literally moving at the pace of the wind. At this point, you're adrift. In that moment of frustration, I said, hey. And they all turned around. I went, hey.
Yeah.
Well, I laughed and I said, well, I was only kidding, but y'all are large individuals and it was a physics problem. So...
But you learned it from the best because dad would say, hey, too many honey buns. Well, right.
Too many honey buns. So I confessed later because I heard his feelings. I said, well, I probably could have worded that better. So I apologize. But he was like, no, you were right. You were right. We should have thought about we're never going to get to the back. I was more concerned about that.
I don't think of Jersey as a big boy, though. Is he a big boy? Well, he's gotten a little bit big. He'd put on a few.
I think he's a lot smaller now. That helped propel him. Thanks to you. See what I did there? It helped propel him to drop a bag of corn, which weighs 50 pounds. So that had happened. So today, you know, we went duck hunting. I didn't finish the story. So Jersey came and another guy. And so we go, we only shot five ducks. We don't have a lot of ducks, even though our opening day was really good. And so we get back to the bank today. No problems. Now, he did raise up, and he said he thought he heard somebody say, get him, which no one said. And there was a duck that had made two circles and was going away. I thought he's fixed to turn back and come. And I just hear boom. And I look out in the decoys because I'm thinking nobody is shooting in the decoys.
But Jersey said he thought he heard somebody say get him. So he shot at that duck, which in my opinion was out of range. And he didn't get him. Well, did he hit him? No. He said, I thought I heard somebody say something. He said, my bad. So I didn't. Yeah. I thought, you know, we all, yeah, I didn't say anything.
Would you get upset if somebody called you fat boy?
No, it happens all the time. So, well, I told you, look, I'm not saying I was justified in doing that. I just thought we're all men. This is kind of funny that none of them are moving. But, you know, I probably shouldn't have said that. But it kind of helped our relationship. And it caused him to lose 50 pounds. So here we go. It's just the motivation. We get back to the bank.
