### Quotes for Outreach
1. "First of all, I want to tell the men in here, the husbands and the fathers, that it's your obligation as the head of your household to pray for your wives and your kids. And you pray for them where they can hear you pray for them. And if you don't know what to pray, Proverbs 31, that's place to start. And if you don't know Proverbs 31, then you got some homework to do. Women, pray for your children. Pray for your husbands. Pray for your men. My mom prays for me every day. My wife prays for me every day. And we both pray for our kids, either at night. I usually pray for them at night because I'm gone before they get up. But anyway, that's the most important thing." [02:14]
2. "Let them see you and hear you pray for them and not some measly, weasley, bless them, God. I'm going to embarrass you, dude. But if Landon Canfield comes up to me and says, hey, I need $10. I'm going to tell him to go talk to Brooks. But if he says, Evan says, I need $10. He's getting $10 or $20 or whatever I have because he's asking in my son's name. You have to be specific. If you don't know what to pray, pray wisdom, pray confidence, pray a heavy anointing over their life. Pray. Pray to make them the head and not the tail. Pray to make them leaders and examples and good influences." [03:38]
3. "Prayer works. My mom and my dad and my wife and my kids plead the blood of Jesus over me every day because I do live a little dangerously, more so than your average person. And I've got more than two guardian angels, but prayer works. I don't have any, I drove. I knew I wasn't in shock. I knew I didn't have a concussion. We were in a bind. I said, y'all handle that. I can drive. It's just a broken arm because we all thought my arm was broken. And so, I drove to the doctor's office and they took x-rays, no broken bones. I'm just scuffed and binged. I'm going to get up and going to be sore for a while, but that's a whole lot better than getting dead." [07:39]

4. "And I was working with the grader, motor grader operator. And we were doing whatever we were doing, trying to get ready for the weekend. So if the rain came, the whole week's worth of work wouldn't be trashed out. And I was moving those traffic barrels out of the way. And the next thing I know, I'm flying through the air. And the operator's name was Roger. And he saw me do like a cartwheel. And land in front of the grader. And I was behind the grader. Now, while I was in the air, I was trying to figure out what was going on. But when I landed in a crumpled heap, I kind of figured out pretty quick, I've just been hit by something. And I looked south and over the hill goes a camper. Well, that made me cross because I thought they didn't even stop." [04:41]
5. "And the first thing I saw was the grader coming to me. And I thought, Jesus, please stop, please stop. I don't want to get run over by the grader. Well, he stopped and jumped out and was doing, you know, checking because I don't want to get gross, but I was bleeding all over the place. And I was wiggling my toes, trying to do triage because I've, you know, I've had a lot of first aid experience and was going through okay. What's wrong? What's going on? I can breathe, I can wiggle my toes. All right. And the first thing I asked for was my do-rag because it knocked my do-rag off and my sunglasses. And the second thing I realized was my bow season is trashed." [05:33]
6. "So, I knew I didn't have a concussion and I knew I wasn't in shock. But I was bleeding all over the place. And come to find out, I thought, this is stuff I found out later, but there was an 18-wheeler headed north of me. And it was southbound and it was an older gentleman, mature, mature gentleman, mature gentleman hauling his camper southbound. And he saw us and saw me and saw the barrels, but he couldn't get over far enough because an 18-wheeler was coming the other way. And that's what hit me. And I've got souvenirs off of the trailer and I trashed out the trailer and broke a bunch of stuff." [06:37]
