What role does physical fitness play in mental health?
I am unashamed. What about you? I feel like I'm one of the Marvel people next to the Incredible Hulk over here. I'm just trying to get on camera.
Why is Exodus considered the most important book in the Bible?
Look at him. Captain America. He must work out.
Sometimes. Very bulky. Sometimes.
How does God use weakness to demonstrate His strength?
We should do a workout together. Yeah, let's do that. Just wait. I'll come to your house. Do you still have any workout program courses?
Oh, my goodness. There's a gym in every single building.
What lessons does God teach Moses through tough love?
Well, the reason why is because they're starting to push that if you have mental problems, that one of the best things you can do is go exercise. That's awesome. That explains a lot about it. That's why you're so mentally stable. Yeah. The most stable guy we know.
Or he's very mentally ill.
That's why he's so fit.
How does the theme of conquering death manifest in the Bible?
Yeah. So they all do it on campus. That's awesome. Cool. Profs. Oh, yeah.
What insights are shared about Moses’ character and strength?
So you're going to work out with him?
Not me, but... No. You're not going to work out with him? I'll just walk over to his house and back.
Why did God withhold His name from Moses for so long?
That's my workout. I don't work out with people that look like Christian.
I find it helpful to have a five-pound weight on my glass of bourbon. Now I'm going to work out with him.
That's my workout out there. So welcome back to Unashamed for Hillsdale.
How does the narrative of Exodus connect to New Testament themes?
We've got Justin Jackson with us. The doctor is in the house. Glad to be here. Yeah. And so just act like you have like a troubled student in Italy Christian. And so you're right across and you're just so this whole podcast, you're just like trying to somehow save this young man himself. From himself. Got it. Okay. Sounds good. Just so we'll know. We were talking about, as we were getting to know you better, that you like to play poker.
Correct.
And are you good at it? Do you play other professors, or how does that?
Yeah, so I'll say this, just so my friends don't mock me. I'm not very good at it.
I said you were like Uncle Si the last time you were here.
So I play with a guy from accounting, finance, math prof. Oh, yeah. It's pretty nuts. You got some card counters. Oh, yeah. And we all kind of know what we're doing. And it's a great time. Oh, actually, probably the... I think probably the best player of all of us, I don't know that I want to say that completely, but he's actually the director of our music program at the college. He's a heck of a player. James Holliman, really good player.
He plays mathematics, right?
Yeah. I mean, and he plays in a lot of tournaments.
So my brothers like to play, and then my Uncle Si likes to play. But we call Uncle Si's nickname is the ATM because the flow seems to go one.
Well, there's no mathematics involved. It's just pure gut feeling. So you never know what is going to happen. I mean... Any hand could be, he'll bet the same with pocket aces or seven, two, or three, four. It doesn't matter. He's betting and it's big.
If you ever get a text about coming to join to play poker, do you text back like, I will be there however, howsoever I will.
Howsoever I will be there. Would that be your response? With my money? Yes, that's what it is. I will be there howsoever I will be there. We just finished Exodus. Nod to the Exodus story right there. Just as long as I bring my $300, I will be there howsoever I will be there.
What Jay says, because he talks about it a lot on this podcast, and he says it's not gambling. It's not gambling. Because people are like, ah, you know, gambling, you guys, you know what I'm talking about? He says it's not gambling when you can't – what does he say? When you don't lose? When you don't lose, I think is what he says. So he's saying he never loses. That's why it's not gambling to him.
Oh, well. But, you know, I don't – he's a bit arrogant too. Yeah, I don't consider it gambling except whenever I lose on the river. I have to scream at someone for gambling. Tell them that they're polluting this game. It's a sweet science. Quit beating me on the river. So that's where the luck and the gambling comes in.
That's my whole strategy.
Just play the river. You're a huge river guy.
I'm a big river guy. That's all John Luke does. He called me the whitewater rafter.
I'm just running the river. River raft.
