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 don’t care how many companies post rainbow flags today. God created marriage to be between one man and one woman, and the rainbow is God’s promise to never flood the earth again.

The rainbow is God’s.

@Joeinblack @Pontifex Hilarious!

@Joeinblack You are an amazing human being. Thank you for sharing.
The “fight” is how most of us feel.
Great insight.

@ZeekArkham Well done dad!

@Roku I have been scammed by STARZ on your platform. How can I speak to someone. Your chat people are not informed. One person ended my chat and would not answer what time a fake subscription was initiated. The next person didn’t give me the time but still didn’t answer my q.

Elon Musk said five words on Joe Rogan that explain everything wrong with your life right now.

Musk: “Happiness is reality minus expectations.”

Five words.

And it explains why the most comfortable generation in human history can’t stop feeling empty.

Musk: “If you just go try living in the woods by yourself for a while, you’ll learn that civilization is quite great.”

He’s right.

On Naked and Afraid, people tap out in days. Sometimes hours. They crawl back to the same civilization they spent years resenting.

Because comfort is invisible until you’re sleeping in the dirt.

But the formula has a second variable.

It’s the one destroying you.

Reality didn’t get worse. By every measure, it’s the best it’s ever been.

Expectations did.

Your grandparents compared themselves to their neighbor. Maybe a cousin. That was the whole universe.

You compare yourself to 10,000 strangers before your first cup of coffee. Curated. Filtered. Showing you a life that doesn’t exist.

Theodore Roosevelt said it a century before any of this was built.

Roosevelt: “Comparison is the thief of joy.”

No Instagram. No TikTok. No algorithm designed by the smartest engineers on the planet to show you precisely what you don’t have.

And he still called it.

Now run the equation.

Reality holds steady. Expectations spike every time you unlock your phone. The distance between them stretches. And happiness doesn’t fade.

It collapses.

Not because your life got worse.

Because your reference point moved.

We built the greatest civilization in human history.

Then we built the perfect machine to make sure nobody enjoys it.

Every scroll. Every notification. Every “suggested for you.” None of it connects you. It’s recalibrating what you think you need. Upward. Constantly. Without your consent.

And you wonder why you feel behind.

You’re not behind.

You’re running toward a finish line that moves every time you look up.

The most dangerous lie of this generation isn’t that life is hard.

It’s that everyone else figured it out. And you’re the only one who didn’t.

Nobody figured it out.

The formula doesn’t negotiate. It just runs.

Raise expectations faster than reality improves and you will be miserable inside a paradise you built with your own hands.

That’s not philosophy.

That’s arithmetic.

And the calculator is in your pocket right now.

[Shahriq Khan @RealShahriqKhan]

When I was Muslim, I compared Muhammad’s last words to Jesus’ last words.

Not just the facts, but the spirit behind them.

And bro, the difference is staggering. It shook my devout Muslim faith.

According to Sahih al-Bukhari, Muhammad’s final words included: “May Allah curse the Jews and the Christians. They made the graves of their prophets into places of worship.”

Those are words associated with his final moments.

No forgiveness. No reconciliation. No peace.

Now compare that to Jesus.

Beaten, betrayed, tortured, hanging on a cross with nails through His wrists, Jesus says:

“Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.”

And then: “It is finished.”

One dies speaking curses.

The other dies extending forgiveness.

One ends by drawing lines and reinforcing division.

The other tears the veil and reconciles heaven and earth.

And whether people like it or not, final words reveal something deeply personal about the heart.

That contrast shook me.

Because one man’s final moments reinforced separation, while the other’s changed eternity through mercy, sacrifice, and love.

Please sit with that honestly.

Senator Ron Johnson just took three minutes to EXPOSE in stunning detail the vast government conspiracy to cover up Covid vaccine reactions.

He called out the mainstream media for REFUSING to report on it while the CIA whistleblower listened intently.

JOHNSON: “This is what we uncovered, this is what is now being covered up by the legacy media.”

“On March 1st of 2021, Dr. Peter Marks, head of the CBER — organization at the FDA that approves vaccines and also supposed to surveil those vaccines post-market for safety — was given a multi-page briefing by the main data mining analysts within FDA working with the inventor of the algorithm they used to analyze the VAERS, the vaccine adverse event reporting system.”

“That briefing told Dr. Marks that the current algorithm because of the nature of the massive number of claims coming into VAERS. From 1990 until 2020 on average 280 deaths were reported in VAERS associated with vaccine. 2021 it was over 21,000. Nothing to see here.”

“26 days later a new state-of-the-art algorithm developed by the inventor of the original algorithm was presented to senior FDA officials showing 49 cases of extreme masking, 25 safety signals, including sudden cardiac death, pulmonary infarction, Bell’s Palsy, different types of strokes.”

“Month after month after month they continued to do this data mining, they continued to show additional safety signals.”

“Did Peter Marks, did Anthony Fauci, did President Biden go to the American public and say hang on here, we’ve got some data, we’ve got some concerns? No! No! They blamed the unvaccinated for continuing the pandemic. This is a pandemic of the unvaccinated. We need to mandate this.”

“This is what government does and what the deep state does... I need the mainstream media, CBS, ABC, CNN, to step forward and start covering what is a MAJOR scandal!”

“How many thousands, tens, hundreds of thousands of people are permanently disabled or possibly lost their life because our FDA hid the fact that there were safety signals SCREAMING at them with the covid injection?”

The FDA literally hid safety signals that were screaming at them.

Elon Musk opened the federal budget and found what both parties spent decades making sure nobody would ever see.

The receipts.

Musk: “Most of the fraudulent government payments, especially to the NGOs, go to the Democrats. Let’s say 80%, maybe 90%. 10 to 20% of it does go to Republicans.”

He didn’t say one side was clean.

He said both sides were eating.

Musk: “The honest answer is the Republicans are partly… they’re receiving some of the fraud too. They’re getting a vig.”

A vig.

That’s the word you use when the house takes a cut of every bet at the table.

That’s not governance. That’s a rake.

And when DOGE shut off the fraudulent payments, the loudest screams didn’t come from Democrats.

They came from Republicans.

Musk: “When we turn off funding to a fraudulent NGO, we’d get complaints from whatever the 10% of Republicans who were receiving the money. And they would very loudly complain.”

You tell someone 90% of the fraud funds their political opponents.

And they still fight you to keep their 10%.

Musk: “I tried telling them, ‘Well, you know, 90% of the money is going to your opponents.’”

Rogan: “They want their piece.”

Musk: “Yeah, they want their piece.”

Rogan: “And they’ve been getting that piece for a long time.”

The uniparty was never a conspiracy theory.

Musk: “The whole uniparty criticism has some validity to it.”

It’s a revenue model.

Left and right aren’t opponents. They’re co-signers on the same account.

The theater is for you. The money is for them.

Every bank on earth runs AI that flags a suspicious $47 charge before you even notice it.

The United States government somehow can’t catch billions in fraudulent payments to shell NGOs.

The technology exists. It has for years.

An algorithm doesn’t care which party you belong to. It doesn’t take a vig. It doesn’t have a donor.

It just follows the money.

And that’s exactly why they’ll never willingly deploy it.

Musk didn’t expose a partisan scandal.

He exposed the operating system of American governance.

And the most dangerous thing he did wasn’t cutting the payments.

It was proving both sides would rather protect the fraud than lose their cut.

The system isn’t broken.

It was built this way.
