Welcome to Jess Thinking. With host, there are Harrison and Virgil Walker bringing you week to week cultural apologetics as well as social issue from a biblical world view.

This is Jess Thinking. Let's thank you.

We're back. It's another edition of the just thinking broadcast. I am Virgil Walker and I am Harold Harrison.

It's going on Omaha.

It's going on man. Not much.

I feel like over there in Nebraska.

Man, it's actually chilling out a little bit. I mean, and by that, I mean, the winter is acting like it wants to.

Hold off. There's no additional snow starting to warm up to the to the high 30s. And so we're I feel like a heat waves coming next week.

We're going to hit 40 something here in a bit. So we're thawing out, man. It's a good look.

I think winter is just teasing you, man. I think which is going to be back.

Winter is going to pull an Arnold Schwarzenegger on you, man. Say I would be back. Yeah. Now, I hope I hope not, man. I'm I'm rebuking the devil on that one. I'm going to go back to my post today.

I'm rebuking the devil on that one, bro. Hey, y'all. That was Omaha going all charismatic on you. That wasn't me.

That wasn't that wasn't Darryl. So, hey, but speaking of being back, man, I'm back from Chef Khan 2019.

Chef is how fast?

How I saw the pictures, man, on Twitter and on Facebook and folks who follow the show and and found you and, you know, Darryl sightings were everywhere. So, man, how how did how did that go, bro?

Yeah. So this is my first Shepherd's conference. I've wanted to attend Shepherd's conference for years.

And finally got the opportunity by God's grace as as an employee of grace to you, which is the preaching and teaching ministry of Dr. John Arthur.

And spent all week at Grace Community Church, just participating in Shepherd conference is one of a team of folks from Grace to you, managing the Grace to you display booth.

At the Grace to you booth, just as an aside, we had a virtual recording studio set up. It was actually similar, very similar to the one that John MacArthur uses to record for Grace to you folks who would listen to us on radio and over the Internet via the Grace to you.

And that studio afforded these brothers who were attending Shepherd's conference, the opportunity to record a 30 second message to John in recognition of his 50 years and as pastor of Grace to Grace Community Church, as well as 50 years of broadcast ministry on Grace to you.

Most of the hours at Shepherd conference, I Shepherd's conference, I spent helping the team out at the Grace to you display, but I also spent lots of time in the booktit.

Wow. That Shepherd's conference. So just a word of advice for anyone who may be planning to attend Shepherd's conference in the future.
