There will couple more questions. Rapidfire beach or mountain which forwarded mountains you going mountain baby could have faulty art each week, which wanted both. I got a sweet tooth. I love both the sweet sweet if you could help book or movie, but about which will motivate the same thought is that I have become an avid book reader so books if you could have your bike or your hearing but you could have both which one would you choose all my God's. Lord have mercy side. I think I'd rather see and then learn sign language or whatever you are the last rapidfire question if you could have one food, one food for the rest of your life and that was it. With that wide thing. I'd have to live off of it.

You have to live off of it now to be Pete chemistry 10 my gosh, well that you got to give you lose that their leases some protein and carbs and all kind of combo there man leave.

That's not even there.

I got to go. Would you suggest a pizza because I could get real creative was the barbecue sauce, cheese incident's immediate minute on top of that with her, but with but butter buttered butter bridge yeah I am with you I think I would do the right little more.

McKeever you're a man of many talents, many and God use you to so many different things. I mean, you travel and preach you to autograph signing juvenile professional absolutely do a radio show you the podcast you've written a book event video stage. What's your favorite thing to do when it comes to all those things that you're involved in it what what would you say would be the thing that really energizes you the box that's such a great question in the first really I guess something they initial thing comes to mind is it in in in a variety capacities, but that is I think there's no greater honoring you're probably gonna relate to this. Perhaps with the I feel at this juncture of life. There's no greater honor.

I feel honestly, than to open up the word of God to open up the arrival and have the privilege of weathered standing on a platform in front of 73,000 located in Jamaica or not is one is to be able to share the good news to share the gospel and hopefully they even on these radio shows in these podcasts and the TV show that went on the amount of TV showing all have and hopefully in some way plant some seeds that will impact somebody's life and then one day I'm envisioning Jay as perhaps you have as well.

One day be able us to the BOM in heaven.

People come up and say I am here I'm in heaven because you were obedient to preach the gospel to share your testimony, your story and autograph signing or wherever it wherever wherever a Walmart to where you and I'm here because you were bold enough and courageous enough to share your faith, or share the word of God and I surrender my heart to Jesus.

Is there one that stands out you that just the year. The adrenaline was off the chart. The energy in the arena was just electric and you look back on your career in USA and that particular matter. That particular event probably stand out above the rest really hard to nail down, say this on the safe, short answers yes. So there is an arena and there is a city but they're two different things so so I'm at it on the break down that way just real quick so first arena, the Baltimore arena 1987 Jim chronic cup tagteam tournament the roles that the superpowers Nikita will you will be going to take that Jim Cobham lifting the cup baby yield will take a home in a million million dollar baby the fun of the plump little body that I know how to think about never had it, thought about Paloma Guyon sent us so you got a record that get that man oh my little theory. Very easily he sees passed on and will believe walk is free to go with Jesus now, but you'll hear from heaven, but maybe his son Cody will hear that her son Dustin but off of. So just got to come will take to Terry to determine Baltimore great great great great great memory and that the city though. I have to throw this in, there is a little sidebar. This is Charlotte North Carolina Charlotte until I write because both the Charlotte Coliseum. The city of Charlotte were from from the historical seventh win over Magnum TA for United States heavyweight championship. The very first ever Great American Bash in Charlotte against the nature boy Ric flair for my first ever shot at the world heavyweight title and going back to my friend that the role of the when I came to his aid in the Charlotte Coliseum in the cage and we formed the superpowers. So Charlotte North Carolina or Baltimore arena right right there you got right scroll down memory lane right there. All is involved well. Great questions as well.
