All right, howdy, men.

Glad to be back.

Thank you guys for joining us for Monday meeting.

Today we're going to be going through still in the book of Acts.

Hopefully we'll make it to chapter 13.

We've been in chapter 12 for...

You get on these chapters sometimes.

You just don't want to leave.

It must be something about 13 that he don't want to talk about.

We might get to chapter 13.

Blake and I have been out on a big adventure in Arkansas hunting with a duck commander

crew and a couple other veterans.

Arkansas puts on a veteran duck hunt the weekend after the season

over is over. And our buddy Jay Stone with the duck commander crew, he's also an Army veteran,

and he's got all kind of connections in the duck hunting world, and we got invited on this

hunt. And it was really special man really awesome time great fellowship and

the thing that really stands out to me most when i spend time with that group is just the legacy

that has been left by phil robertson who was the the leader of that family for a long, long time.

And I just think he makes a great example for us as men to look at of what it looks like when a man is called out of darkness into the light

of the gospel and walks out the rest of his life in obedience to the Lord,

steps up and takes upon himself the burden of leadership to lead his family well and you know it's it's just crazy to be able to witness that even now that Phil is gone the impact of his leadership and his obedience to the gospel is just continuing to affect a lot of

people's lives, man.
