On today's show Russ and Yvette are joined by a very special guest...Russ' dad, Russ Salerno, Sr.  That's right Russ is a Jr. and during this show he referenced as "Bubba", his childhood nickname.  We discuss how and where specifically the government may be overreaching a little as we begin this slow degradation of our freedoms and liberties. Masks are the new thing and some are looking very hip...are designer masks the new thing? With all this craziness going on it's a great time to be a Christian. Sharing the gospel now is needed more than ever as people are looking for hope! We also make some predictions about whether Fall sports will be played or not and discuss the innovative way NASCAR is staying in the game while the crisis has us locked in our homes leveraging the iRacing platform. We dedicate this show to my Uncle Bobby who's birthday was yesterday! Special thanks to Memaw, Papaw, Grandpa and Grandma and all our listeners out there.  We love you and are grateful for your support! #TheWindingRoadHome Isaiah 41:10 --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/russsalerno/support

Don't panic!  There is no need to worry because the Coronavirus in quarantine for at least 14 days after Chuck Norris contracts the virus. That's fake news about Chuck Norris, because we call out "fake news" when we see it. But, you have to admit...that's a good one! On this episode we discuss the collaborative efforts of government and business leaders across the nation to help America with the Wuhan Virus (Yeah...the "Wuhan Virus", because that's where it originated). We also call out Nancy Pelosi for trying cram Planned Parenthood Funding into the H.R. 6201: Families First CoronaVirus Response Bill. We also highlight an interesting move by the Federal Reserve to release $500 billion in the repo market overnight to help banks in the event they need access to it to meet end of day business requirements. That amount is greater than most country's GDP. Will you soon be criticized for saying you want to go grab a bite at the local "Mexican" or any other ethnic restaurant in the near future? Who knows! Great news here! One of our favorite pastors, Tony Evans, is honored at the US Museum of the Bible in Washington DC. for the work he did completing the Tony Evans Study Bible. Thanks for listening!

It's very likely that at some point in your life you're going to have to stand up for yourself and fight. Whether you are fighting for your life physically or spiritually, God has given us ways to stand strong. Joining us on today's show are our good friends Harvey and Christine Sharpe who recently opened up The Sharpe Dojo in Gastonia, NC where young and old can come learn how to defend themselves through the discipline of American Freestyle Karate. During this show we share about the parallels between defending yourself in a physical confrontation and having a ready defense of our faith in Christ.  When a bad situation arises and you're forced to defend yourself what do you do? It all depends on the situation! To learn more about The Sharpe Dojo check out their Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/TheSharpeDojo/. They also have an Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/thesharpedojo/ Thanks to all our listeners...you guys are a total blessing to us! Love y'all!

We kick off 2020 reminded that life is a breath through the death of Kobe Bryant and the fiery crash of Ryan Newman in the Daytona 500.  We root for Capitalism and America which is driven by hard work! We are reminded that ain't nothing free...including freedom itself!  Freedom comes from Christ alone who paid the ultimate price on the cross for all of us! #RepentAndTrust Thanks for listening and sharing with your friends! #TheWindingRoadHome John 3:17 --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/russsalerno/support

My princess Danielle joins us on the show today as we discuss sharing your faith in a world where people seem to hate God more and more. It's as if they are attempting to emulate the Devil by asking the same deceptive question he asked Eve in the Garden of Eden (Gen. 3:1).  Don't be confused about truth like the the wave of so called millennial "faith leaders" who are renouncing their faith. We also have fun listening to Joe Biden state that he chooses truth over facts.  That's right...he said it? These are our leaders. God please help us! Why is it that smoke alarm batteries only go dead between the hours of 2-4am? They never go dead during the day. :) We hope you enjoy the show!  Love y'all! #TheWindingRoadHome John 3:17 --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/russsalerno/support

On the show today Russ & Yvette emphasize how easy it is for those who hate America so much to simply leave.  It's odd that people who hate America stay here. We digress... Russ and Yvette also parallel the race of life as it relates to our relationship with Christ on this side of eternity. How awesome is it knowing that we can run and not grow wearing , all while knowing ahead of time that we are going to win the race because Christ already won it for us on that cross. On the lighter side of things, Russ completed a Mark Wahlberg workout today...running 9 holes of golf. It was tough, but it's a great way to stay in shape. If Mark can do it so can Russ, right? Y'all be blessed! #TheWindingRoadHome John 3:17 --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/russsalerno/support
