The Joy Ride #27

Looking for that perfect Christmas gift for the family? Why not a chicken? Stick a bow on top, put the chicken under the tree, and who knows, you may even have a couple eggs to fry up for breakfast Christmas morning.

Give the gift that keeps on clucking. A chicken. Okay, maybe it's not the perfect gift for your family, but it is the perfect gift for a poor family in Asia. A chicken can break the cycle of poverty for a poor family. Yes, a chicken.

A chicken's eggs provide food and nourishment for a family, and they can sell those eggs at the market for income. When you donate a chicken or any other animal through Gospel for Asia, 100% of what you give goes to the field. And the best gift of all, when Gospel for Asia gives a poor family an animal, it opens the door to the love of Jesus. So give the perfect gift for a family in Asia this Christmas. Give them a chicken.

Call 866-WINASIA or to see chickens and other animals to donate, go to CritterCampaign.org. Welcome, fellow adventurers, to the Masculine Journey Joyride Podcast. This is a brand new show from the guys you know.

I'm talking, of course, about the Band of Brothers. My name is Keith and I'm the producer for Masculine Journey and Masculine Journey After Hours. In this podcast, you will hear funny stories, exchanges and thought-provoking moments that will amuse you, make you smile and draw you closer to Jesus Christ in your journey of life. Tis the season for a joyride.

Merry Christmas, fellow adventurers and joyriders. Sam shares a story similar to the Tongue Frozen on the Flagpole scene from A Christmas Story. They were made of plastic. They were made of metal.

Yeah, aluminum, right? And my brother, Mark, you know, being who he is, he's always an instigator, go figure, more than me. And he's like, hey, it's a really cool thing if you stick your tongue on this. You know, and me being at the time, I was probably about seven, eight, you know, like, really? Yeah, I stuck my tongue on it. And, you know, I'm like, ah.

And so in order to help, what's he do? He grabs it, he rips it off of my tongue. Oh, my gosh, you think it hurts when you burn your tongue? Try taking a layer or two off of it with an ice cube thing. I mean, you could literally see it on the side of the ice cube tray. And so I would watch that movie and I'm like, that's not that funny. It's really kind of painful. So from the guys on Masculine Journey, I'm Keith and we'll see you down the road.
