I'm amazed at all the different configurations of headlights coming at me different shapes, sizes and numbers different colors. Some are blue you get that sense a lighter.

There are so many different things I've heard over the years and I love to do that topic and I would love you to call in with your ideas some people. They turn up the air conditioning I've heard of people sticking their head out the window when you wake up 866-34-TRUTH 87884 and yes this is the day finally Christian Car Guy theater pride takes a ride. Part 50 with it really is exciting. It's one of my favorite episodes ever and I can hardly wait and is coming up in our last segment today in our third segment we have our appraisal by the real black book. That's where we search the Bible for hidden treasure crowd for the sermon lift up our voice for understanding this little light of mine on the lidded shot. We are going to explore stories of angels and saints from the 1300s and even go on a deer hunt to discover some spiritual headlamp technology that really does truly light up my word and that world and it you may have noticed, is really getting dark outside. We need a light we can get in that's coming up in our third segment right now this I have no because I know somebody out there has a secret to how they stay awake at night, or they have brand-new car that's got these new xenon headlights.

Or maybe it's got a cheap LED or HID you call and tallest. Let us know 866-34-TRUTH 87884. I'd love to know what you think about your new headlights and also we need these night driving secrets maybe you eat cough maybe drink candy eat coffee drink candy.

It works like that some of them to a backwards. What's your that's obviously I could be asleep right now. It will 866-348-7884 866-34-TRUTH and as always we have all this information@christiancargile.com that's our website. It has today stories all about the headlights and all about my other articles, but also every previous show all our podcast for the last three or four years.

Are there, as well as Christian card I theater which will post until like 1045 today what actually goes on here that you can listen all the previous episodes of Christian card theater as well as look up the cast and crew.

See all plays all these different roles and and see who writes these things and all that goes into that show and of course we also have a lot of people are out there looking to buy a new car used car. We have a Christian car sales registry where people can call in, send me an email so we can put them on that but one of my favorite things we do at the website is the Christian car care car care centers, which are the. The repair centers that are involved in the Jesus labor, love, and if you haven't heard that Jesus labor love is car repair for single moms widows and families in crisis and you hear the Christian card. We have a network of people that do that across the country and so back on the Christian card at.com and clicking on Christian car care centers. You can see while this is a guy who donates to single moms widows families in crisis and when you think about those people that would do that kind of thing might be just the people that you want to work on your own car again. It's a Christian card at.com the Jesus labor love, of course, you may have a need or you may know somebody who has a need and they just it's above their head financially to be able to do it to do something as far as the car and you can go to Christian card. I.com and click on the Jesus labor love and their fill out an application. So along those lines have to give an update because we have so many wonderful wonderful contributions. I cannot tell you how blessed we were in the last few weeks. We actually had two different cars donated to us which would be the third one in the last two months that we've had donated to us and there's just no way of explaining the delight of somebody that you know these are your older cars that have been donated to us but the people that need them desperately have no transportation, this one for family they had totaled their car and she and the lady found out that her husband had not paid her insurance premium that month and so they ended up at a terrible balance on the car they're making payments that they had no car, or the Lord provided because he provided the car through the church actually in Greensboro that donated the car to us. In fact they they put a new water pump and all the stuff in it and this lady and how cool is that. And so we have at Christian card, coursed applications where you can donate a car or donate money or if you really need it all works and it's so cool to see how God comes to the aid of so many and it's just one of those neat things. If you want to donate, you can do that the website that some people prefer to send it by mail and so I'd like to give that address. It is Jesus labor of love. It is a 501(c)(3). It's completely tax-deductible and we have hope everybody involved in this ministry is volunteer so every dollar that we get donated to us unless it comes through PayPal or some and they take the 3% but every other dollar goes right to the people that need our legal work. Everything is been donated to us. We have no administration cost whatever you give. We try to give it completely to the people to do it and you can send it directly to the Jesus labor love 238 Sorrow Ln. essay you are laying Winston-Salem 27107.

Again, it's the Jesus labor love 238 Sorrow Ln., Winston-Salem 27107 so this morning I'm saying new ideas to see in the dark. It's a battle of the headlights and I'm hoping somebody calling this got these new headlights that can share with me what they think. But I would just point out that I'm being a little sarcastic that Solomon noted there is nothing new under the sun, not even light, especially spiritual light is lady Juliann of Norwich, said the ghostly it's even more fascinating study that, like you do that in the third segment, but first practicality of good headlights.

You know what is your experience here, what, what have you seen with these new HID with LED and I'm guessing that automotive engineers everywhere lay awake at night thinking of how to see better down the road at night and you think about it's really cool things have happened over the years. You remember Tucker in 1948.

He came up with that idea never that big headlight that was in the middle of the hood, but twisted when you turn the steering wheel to kind of give you that adaptive lighting that they call a believer not that technology is still in use today. In fact, in Europe, this column adaptive lighting and the lights turn when you turn the head turn the steering wheel well with these new LED lights which you know is liquid. Excuse me, remember exactly with what that stood for, but it's it's a diode it's a light emitting diodes with LED lights are but they can actually through computers begin to steer the lights in the direction of the car is going but also can detect you know how much light is in the situation that you're currently driving in an adjusted now. That's not legal yet United States but they are doing in Europe, and even have lasers, Audi, BMW, you know, these people are coming up with this. Now here's the downside to that is that literally. From what I understand some of those systems. If you gotta replace a headlight it can cost as much is 2000 did you hear me 2000. There's a downside to technology some but we would love to know your experience with lighting. I would love to know your nighttime driving secrets. Or maybe you have us about your nighttime driving.

Some is going along to you because 866-34-TRUTH 87884 take it all coming back 866-34-TRUTH 878 the most damning is that these neon lights is that the LED lights is that the good old courts. One baby halogen 866-34-TRUTH 87884 is a number to call in and give your vote.

We would love to hear your story and talk about that and also night driving strategies how you stay awake at night which another. Some truck drivers out there. The public and share some wisdom with us and we would love to hear from you. Your thinking all this is simple this is what you do. I would love to hear it and I know who knows, you may somebody save somebody's life by calling in the day and sharing your secret keeping from dry driving driving drought, driving drowsy and being able to see for miles, 866-348-7884 866-34-TRUTH. Of course, we do have our Christian card theater episode five pride takes rides can be in the last segment in our appraisal by the tobacco, and excitement. Right now we need your causes his life got lines open and I would love to hear from you. What is your night driving strategy you don't eat candy do you stop in at the rest area deep sleep you driver the buddy, what is what is your secret 866-348-7884. Now when it comes to these headlights when you think about it if you're an engineer you got all these things that you gotta try to balance which I'm glad I don't have. There's heat and and that's one of the things that they're finding with some of these newer technologies that they are using in Europe that their solid sheet that's created in the engine compartment causes problems actually wood components melting so you if you make light bar that is going to create heat, especially if it they stay on for some reason the driver eight hours or longer.

Whatever the situation may be, and then there's the reflection aspect of enough you got really bright light.

Howard is working in your sending them out into the rain or the snow limits, thus reflecting back at you and what you experience with that and again there's the idea have what you doing to the drivers come in the other direction. You know these new laser lights. I'm thinking that's either not legal yet United States can imagine coming down the road all of a sudden get hit by somebody's laser lights, whatever that might look like in others there's some technology but we have to be concerned with. So the battle rages and you know one of the things I find interesting and and certainly that might be illuminating for some of you out there is that even if you are using the traditional halogen lights like old red has you can you can get a brighter new light. Sylvania makes these blue lights that that will produce a different kind of item will show you all about that you go to your regular park store wherever you go and check it out because there are two or three different actual styles of life that you can get a need to still stay in the halogen but then also now there's conversion kits so if you want to go to an LED style in a libel limiting eliminating diode style light because you know you see that coming down the road and you know how that looks cool. I wish I had that my car well for several hundred dollars. You can convert your car and they actually have kits that you combine now and it's pretty easy to do is Google that headlight conversion kit and you can get one of these new LED if you think that I would love love love for somebody call him.

He's tried that but because honestly I'm pretty happy with old red lights the way they are, but I would love to know somebody's user conversion kit and what they've experienced with their headlights gives you know if it's your daughter driving or maybe your wife whenever you know these things are a big concern.

Are they able to see as clearly as they can see another issue before I get off the subject of headlights is the lenses you know in the old days leave steel beams and you never had to concern yourself with the cloudiness of the of the lens you know but nowadays I'm sure you've seen that is cars get older the lens of the piece of plastic that goes over what you know is the halogen light or whatever those things become yellow or they become cloudy and so there's all sorts of different cleaners, ranging from everything like toothpaste to some that I got in a spring cleaning kit, which by the way, did they just look like a handy white and I used to mount old red lenses and it was amazing. Swipe them over there in a way it went clean so and you know these things were like two or three dollars but there's no sense in dealing as your lights begin to fade.

There's no sense in dealing with that these days there's lots of stuff you can buy to affect those lenses and those are things that might just again save your life as you can see that extra 20 feet because you are stopping you know you got your reaction time or whatever when you become aware of something that's in the road this morning on my way to do the show. It was still dark when I came it was foggy and there was a guy on a bicycle and he had one little bitty little red flashing light on the back of his bicycle and it's dark and it's foggy and I was thinking man you know this.

My father used to say, that's the way you make Angel's apartment. I'm glad I didn't because I saw it in time with those the kind of things that when you talk about headlights. Those are things that your affect. So, on the other side of the coin that were talked about night driving tips today and again I am really hoping that one of you truck drivers will callout their and illuminate this force is you know, I know you guys deal with this all the time you see people that are out there driving drowsy and what is it that that that they do well. The most common tip to tip that I've gotten over the years and I think I should say here is simply if you drowsy pullover to rest area or even off the side of the road somewhere that save you not be heard and and take a nap. I mean, 20, 30, 45 minutes of sleep does an amazing job of helping you wake up you know if you're driving drowsy because it's your body telling you that you need that yes, caffeine can help, but it has a burn off time yes candy can help in putting her head out the window can help, but there's also an a time-tested technology that I like to employ my mom is to have somebody with you and engage in a conversation because you know is you're going on the road and you talk about things. It keeps you more alert and aggression want to be distracted midconversation get too far gone in that direction, but you know those are the. The techniques that that of course most people would tell you not to mention stopping every hour or two hours and sit and go ahead and just walk around in and get something fresh but the air conditioner working, whatever. I would love still. I know you know some out there and we would love to hear from you. We can take that call in the third segment where we can move to our appraisal by the real black truck talk about this whole light thing when it comes to your spiritual life. When we come back we would love to hear from you. 866-34-TRUTH 87884 the Christian car – new ideas in the dark. It's the battle of the headlights going on today on the Christian car show as well as night driving out the estate from you. Keep from getting drowsy while you're driving. We got all sorts of cool stuff for you here today. We would love your insights. 866-34-TRUTH 87884. This is a live show and we would love to take your call. We got Danna is in. I'm in a try to say it's snow mesh Washington this morning banded.

I miss that a pretty good all will Snohomish. How cool is that. And you're up early this morning is probably still dark out there like three in regard to that light really irritate my wife and I and out, and the other thing but that the light come on automatically on the card when you get in early, feeling their headlights come on very damn. They do not turn on a light at that time the last night I followed the guy on interstate in Lane three and it was the Ultimate Pl. in Lane three and no taillight all night I'd flashing and last name didn't do scary stuff is really on the blue lights when I see this coming. It's kind of freaky and it you know it you're trying to gesture eyes to the light coming in. When it's all these different colors and it becomes more and more difficult. Will God bless you and appreciate you calling this morning.

We really appreciate God bless you, driving at night drowsy.

Liz unit on the Christian car – of the morning morning. I am marvelous. I'm anxious to hear what you got for us you were talking like it you can light overtly light makes clear, well they are at any part store like AutoZone or know O'Reilly's, and all those kind of things they have exactly advance on the unit you go over to the cleaning supplies and right there.

This was made by the same people that make those windshield wipers that the rain that was raining the rain X on people made it for the headlights and so it was little just a little packet right there in the stuff worked right so there you and I love by delaying the Annex also makes and I along those lines. They make up window cleaner that to me. I just it does amazing job of having a water bead when it rains and I can see so much better, especially at night when I'm driving.

When I use rain X to clean my windshield. I helped write your like and you don't encrypt them on bright and allowing then occurred does like you are right, it's electrical and and thank you well because I got Christian card theater coming up. I got a moved our appraisal by the real black booking.

That's where we search the Bible for hidden treasure.

Cry out for discernment, lift up your voice for understanding and you know this little light of mine, I got a lead shot at. Today I want to explore stories of angels and of saints from the 1300s, even on a deer hunt to discover some spiritual headlamp technology that really lights up my world when he gets so dark outside and sure you're experiencing that in the selections. It's in the top you know some darkness going on is so yeah so and and are very freezing cold day.

This is probably 15 years ago when I email in January. Sometimes the temperature North Carolina can really drop down to where it's you, -3 or 4° when I got up this particular morning to go hunting and so I mean it was freezing cold and it was dark and I was just sitting there thinking there's no way I'm in a sea of beer any deer in his right mind would be asleep right now and my wife had made me the sausage balls which were just absolutely in a letter on my mind and all I could think of was. I needed eat the sausage balls as soon as I had my hand in the sausage balls of my gun was down the course you know that when the deer shows up and will go a long time and the deer but let me just say that I shot the deer and then I ended up having to chase the and he took me on a wild goose chase that went went went went went and I went so far back it was up around Troy North Carolina was way back in the wilderness way back until I just got totally lost and all of a sudden I realized suddenly to be worried about the deer because it afternoon by this time and it's going to get dark and I am lost but I have my cell phone with me still cell phones listed so I get to the top the sill and I make this called my friend who would give me this lease to the hunt on and he said well Robbie get on to you know you're on the top of the hill look out and he says if you can see hardwoods that are on your right. You know that's where the where the pines are if you can get on that line between the pines, keep hardwoods on your rights in the Pines on your left when you walk that way you'll come out to the road so as I can see, I could see were the pines were considered locked it out in the pines are growing up there and I could see the hardwood line so I get on this line.

I start walking and I went to briars and I went through creeks and I went through swamps.

You think and I walked and walked and walked and about the time it started to get dark.

About 5 o'clock. There were no more. There was no more line.

It was just pines and hardwoods all mixed together and I had nowhere to go except maybe go back the other direction, but that seemed hopeless, and now it what I'd feared the most, is it's going to get dark, to be left out here, freeze to death, and by this time my cell phone's dead and here I am, but all the sudden what I feared the most, which was the dark became my biggest friend and ally is way off in the distance I saw a light in that light right.

I could tell was, not the son of moon.

It was a light on somebody's house, my following that light, I ended up in a house which ended up the road and that of the. The darker it gets. I sure you from the story writer. The light shines now volumes and volumes have been written in the Bible about light. I can just tell you and faith… Considered these for second John one says in the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God in the beginning he was with God in all things were made through him and without him nothing was made that was made in him was life and the life. The life was the light of men. I want to hold onto that thought for a minute because in my view every image bearer of God.

Every human being has a unique light that reflects God's glory when Jesus comes to live in your heart, it begins to shine and this is a spectacle of angelic proportions as I'm telling a story that illustrates that the minute but Victor Hugo put it this way to love another person is to see the face of God. Now when you see another person, and you begin to love them, you'll see attributes that person has and it becomes light, it's a glory it's a reflection of God and the if you can bring that out in that other person use either gifting you see the light that they bring to the world.

You are in fact loving that person is your bringing out that light. Now the song that we played the beginning of the segment is from the movie tangled which you had Rapunzel if you seen the movie at a beautiful illustration of this. There's a guy that name Flynn writer who shows up and he calls out the glory of repent of Rapunzel stuck in my house she'll never come out the litter light shine.

But Flynn writer. Not only gets route that begins to build her up at another thing interesting thing happens.

Rapunzel make such an impression on Lynn Flynn, writer that his light shines in the two of them combined want to take on evil and in light up their world and the get to sing that song, which is glorious. No doubt now. With that in mind friend of mine Adam Draper who is an attorney and wonderful man has a unique ability and your guy think he is not, and you may think I'm not.

But he can see angels and it's not uncommon for atoms which share stories with me where he sees angels and this particular day he was tell me about this last week he said he was in church, the Holy Spirit's really fill in the place and all of a sudden he begins to see these angels and the like. Swarms of Angel and they're going to the light like minnows coming to you know to the light and then they're going another one going another one what he asked Jesus to tell them what is that he said angels can see a light in man that reflects a part of God. Nobody else can see after you find it here comes the cargo theater come after time today I I Leon projects arrived. Jim and his girlfriend had an argument about this was before the parade where Allie was between how is been struggling with her hasty decision to break up with Jimmy when Miss Annie Pastor Jack Sec. shared some wisdom on the subject of grace and Allie and her guardian grandparents also had a deep discussion along those lines that led to a phone call from Allie to Jimmy to meet top small shop, perhaps to discuss the most important decision in the valleys life. Jimmy had been up on the mountain. Praying for just that when he spotted a crystal rolling down the stream engraved with the words to love another person is to see the face of God, Jimmy, crystal with a rainbow towards the whole gang under the hood of Jimmy's Jeep creating quite a stir. Now Jimmy is climbing into his Jeep headed the top small shop to meet our Crystal sure does feel like it fits into these prayers for Allie to get here.

My rearview mirror. I sure do love what it says love another person. The face of God. I better hurry, Allie could be a pop small soft already. Jimmy comes down from the mountain with his walks into me now Brad, the photographers followed Allie to pop small shop as well. Rent notices Jimmy's G makes a call. Hey, I just found the perfect getaway car now. Don't worry about that sheriff and his deputy. I'll have them on a wild goose chase.

I'll be long gone by the time he gets back. Okay see you soon. Just be sure to bring the money Brad doesn't realize that he's been overheard by the car parts of Jimmy's Jeep Frenchy fender speaks teach you as I keep thinking what we don't know anything. I'm thinking I'm thinking here. Maybe I can come up with a way to grease the skids.

I think my tank is a little low because nothing is coming to me but do is scary. He is, and I mean really slick and I know because I mosey motor oil. After all Tammy tensioner is upset. I really like IBM's do something compact.

We Wally windshield wiper pipes up all thinking about taking a drink of the washing solution was addicted for years and clean now only take under the hood. We got the only one we need to go to bistro and carriage all the cardboard to begin praying. Meanwhile Brad the photographer making them at this time to get used to PAD help you and the sheriff can make your way out to Beavercreek branch out on Highway 16 the lighting will be perfect in about half an hour to get the photos I need both of you guys and that patrol because yours backlit against the bridge. Can you make it deputy. I knew I could count on you. Meanwhile, unaware of the danger outside inside the malt shop.

Jimmy and Allie almost made up his understanding of grace maybe sending tell me because it means you can you care Allie is not really about me it's about how much God loves you and what Jesus did on the cross for you. I think I'm starting to understand Allie this is a little embarrassing but I just finished a big gulp up on the mountain and after this large coffee that is gone go to the restroom ;-) is pocketing over the Sheriff's office is trying to convince the sheriff to hand out to Beavercreek Bridge on Highway 16 the long shared name is Sharon's office.

Since this is the diversion. I have a gut feeling that the skies try to lead us out of the wild goose chase hospital run question is why Eustace where is he really right now you hear anything in the background during the call. Think Eustace can you number anything when you're blowing your chance for nation. Eustace someone's life could be at stake here.

I need you to think know what you hear.

Besides this photographers voice think they were know it could have been anywhere. No, not just where the places open this time of night seizures 711 motility staying on the mall was closed possible job get the car that's about 2711. Meanwhile, back rent goes inside coaches. Why hello there young lady.

I was hoping to find you here how pretty you look today. Are you ready to do some preliminary shots for the fair vanity magazine if you just step outside. We can do this in a jiffy.

I'm my boyfriend is in the restroom right now. Don't you worry, it'll take just a couple of candid shots tell the editor plan the layout will be done before he gets back. Allie follows Brad outside where you stand. Hey this Jeep is lucky. Why don't you open the door and look like you're about to get in. That's right, there perfect I got an idea you climbing in Indy buckling her seatbelt just come around the other side and take the picture to the open driver's boyfriends again. I guess he was in such a hurry to come talk to me okay just getting here and just since Brad begins to drive Jimmy coming out of the restroom doesn't see the outside totally caller here.

No tune in next month for the next edition of try now in the rainy radiator to review. Right now the word was a little like they always think of you
