I am unashamed. What about you?

Welcome back to Unashamed. We just finished recording the kind of our thoughts on Charlie Kirk and everything that went on this past week.

And so, you know, we're still kind of in that thought processing mode, I think,

of talking about that. But it was also a travel week, a big travel week for us. We were all over

the country. And Jason mentioned a little bit of that in the last podcast. I was headed to Missouri

to speak this past week.

And it was really interesting because so we were traveling on 9-11, which is the day after Charlie was assassinated.

And, you know, that would have been a heavy enough thing anyway.

In fact, we were at the airport and I ran into, I don't know if you

guys, do you guys know Josh and Allie Taylor? Yeah. Yeah. Great young family. Amazing story. And they

were on their way to do an event. They speak and tell about what God has done in their lives and their

marriage. Allie has had cancer since she was very young. And so it's impacted

them in so many ways. But they've just been so God-honored through the process. And there were times

when they were told they couldn't have children and these type things were all four of their

girls. They were with them on this trip. And when they were coming in, you know, we saw them

because we speak at a lot of the same

events. So they do a lot of pro-life stuff too. So it was really great to actually run into them

the airport, kind of like you and Willie Jays. But they're just like it looked like Zach, your

crew, I would guess maybe a few years ago. It's just like a circus moving through because you

got the car seats, the strollers, the bags, the, you know, trying to keep everybody in line. The little, the littlest one runs through the radar or not radar, but the X-ray machine too quick. So it was just, you know, we were kind of helping them, kind of grandparenting there with them. And it was really great just to see them. and they were on their way to an event. And they were going to go to D.C. first and spend some time just with their kids and their family. And so Josh sends me a text when we get on the plane and they're sitting way, way in the back, which is probably good with all the kiddos. But he sent me a text and said, I just realized we're flying on 9-11. And I was like, yeah, no. I mean, like that would have been a much, you know, more scary situation, even just a decade ago, just the thought of that. But I think it also reminded me of just what the week. It was so impactful because this was 9-11, which was 24 years ago.

You know, I had this 3,000 plus people killed with this idea of hate and the two worlds colliding,

Jase, as we've been talking about. And the day before, we kind of experienced it again with one life,
