To you, it's just a Cracker Barrel parking lot. To me, it's where I gave my life to Jesus Christ.
I was 21 years old. I was working at the Cracker Barrel in Tallahassee after some of the worst years of my life. I'd made mistakes. Real ones.
I grew up in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, raised by a mom who worked hard and didn't accept excuses. But I made decisions that should have ended my story before it ever really started. By the grace of God, they didn't. But every day, I was carrying them.
One afternoon, a church group came into the restaurant, just back from a revival. I served them their meals like I served any other table. But something happened while I was serving them. I can't fully explain it to you. The Lord spoke to me. He said, “Stop running from Me.”
It knocked me back.
I went to find the table, and they were all gone. I could see through their windows that they were getting on their bus, and I knew deep down that if I let them drive away, I was going to keep running. So I went outside. The last woman, just as she was stepping onto the bus, turned to me and asked, “Are you okay?”
I told her, “No ma’am, I’m not okay.” I told her the Lord was telling me to stop running.
That whole bus emptied out, stood with me in the parking lot of a Cracker Barrel in Tallahassee, Florida, and prayed over me right there.
I gave my life to Christ that day. Right there.
I still get emotional about it. Because I know what I was before that moment, and I know what He's done since. He gave me a wife who shares my faith. He gave me three sons. He gave me a career, a community, a calling I never would have dared to ask for. He took a kid from Crown Heights who’d run out of chances and gave him a life that doesn't make sense apart from grace.
People ask me sometimes why I talk about it. Why I bring up the parking lot. Why I don't just keep that part private and let folks see the polished version.
I'll tell you why.
Because there's a young man out there right now — maybe in Tallahassee, maybe in Tampa, maybe in Miami, maybe in a small town in the Panhandle — who thinks his story is already over. Who thinks the mistakes he's made disqualify him from the life he could have had. Who thinks God doesn't want anything to do with somebody like him.
I'm here to tell him: that's a lie.
In life, you're not who you are at the lowest point. You're who you choose to become after.
The Lord met me in a Cracker Barrel parking lot. He'll meet you wherever you are.
You just have to stop running.
I really dislike all the attacks on my Mormon friends on here.
Mormons are some of the most Christlike people you will ever meet. They operate in charity and self sacrifice.
And you know what? They put family at the core of their lives. They love children and view them as blessings from God. I know a lot of Christians who have terrible views on children and family.
America has a lot of problems and I think the last possible problem is the Mormon community.
I obviously disagree with their theology or else I would be Mormon. But give me a break about heresy and doctrine when there are over 40,000 different interpretations of Christianity since the Protestant reformation.
If you're interested and didn't know, you can keep track of the Reflecting Pool filling up via a live cam from the Pyramidion atop the Washington Monument.
I read it takes roughly 5 days to fill up.

Hunter Biden was one of the people abusing the government to hurt Trump and every decent American. There is no coming back from that ever. And shame on anyone giving him the time of day.

Oh my goodness, I have tears in my eyes. What a beautiful song to go home to the Lord. This truly touched my heart. ❤️🥲🕊️🙏🌹
A father’s final wish was for his daughter to sing “Goodness of God.” 🥺 Her Instagram is @brianaguignard.
It is a tremendous honor to join our amazing President, Donald J. Trump in Washington, D.C., on June 24 as our nation begins the celebration of America’s 250th birthday.
Growing up as a farm kid in California, I never could have imagined that one day I would stand on the National Mall, alongside our Commander in Chief, and help commemorate this remarkable milestone in our nation’s history.
For nearly four decades, I have had the privilege of singing about the values, freedoms, and spirit that make America exceptional. I’m excited for this opportunity and look forward to performing my song, “God Bless the U.S.A.” with the United States Marine Band as we honor 250 years of American courage, sacrifice, and freedom.

The Washington Post just recognized the genius of Trump’s uncle, Dr. John G. Trump, who spent time directing a secret lab in England during WW2, developing radar systems and preparing U.S. troops to use it in battle—earning recognition from both King George VI and President Truman.
He advised General Patton on the future of war in 1945, and also consulted NASA during the space race in the 1960s.
The contributions of the Trump family to the United States are immense.
What we make and who we are is inextricably connected to our rich history.
And if you destroy that history and the idea of higher power, you destroy a part of each and everyone of us.
You destroy our moorings and our grounding. that’s why I sculpted the national World War I Memorial. To fight the destroyers!
Unbelievable! Lyin’ @tedcruz is actively pushing a college sports bill that deliberately leaves out any ban on men competing in women’s sports.
What the hell has happened to Ted Cruz?
