    Seven days that changed the world. From a triumphal entry into Jerusalem, to a hill called Golgatha, to an empty tomb. It all happened in seven days.  The sacrifice of Christ cannot be overstated. God became man and took on the sin of the whole world, so that YOU would not have to carry the burden of sin.  For six hours he hung on the cross to take away the sins of the entire world...for YOU. His death is our hope in eternal life with him. his resurrection is proof that our souls live forever. We can choose to live forever in the presence of God, or forever separated from God.  Join Jon and me as we celebrate Holy week.

    Duck Commander is in its 50th year as a company, and yet for most of that time, it was a cottage industry. Building duck calls in the family home. All of that changed in the early 2000's when the brand of duck calls started getting the recognition it deserved. Designed by Phil Robertson in the early 1970's the now famous duck calls have led to the demise of tens of thousands of ducks.  But there is far more to the story than mere duck calls. Phil Robertson's conversion has been well documented, and today's show is not about Phil, but about his son Willie. Willie took his business degree and helped propel Duck Commander into a global phenomenon and made them the most sold, most watched and most admired company in the outdoor space.  Willie's humility about how the company grew under his leadership is apparent in this conversation. From expanding sponsorships to TV deals, and the now infamous Duck Dynasty shows. Willie is the epitome of an entrepreneur and as such the family has a platform to focus on what is most important and that is in sharing their faith with tens of millions of folks all across the world.  I am humbled that Willie took time out of his hectic schedule to sit down with me as we discuss all things, ducks, bucks and Jesus.      www.taurususa.com www.cva.com www.birddogcoffeebeans.com www.himtnjerky.com www.citrusafe.com www.elimishieldhunt.com  www.nukemhunting.com www.christianoutdoors.org

    Why are we prideful? Why do men think its week to be humble? Today we discuss the pitfall of being prideful and how God's word warns us about being prideful. Today we learn fromMproverbs, 16:18 "pride comes before destruction..."  so many men have a hard time forgiving themselves for past mistakes. but hear me here... "you are not defined by your worst decision." Proverbs tell us that we are his and that humility comes before honor. We are to humble ourselves before God and one another if we are to enter into a whole relationship with our God.  "The heart of a man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps."
