Speaking4Him Podcast #660: The Last Rodeo (2025)

 “Neal McDonough plays a part he is perfectly suited for, not only having that rugged look of a cowboy, but also exhibiting the moral compass of one. He instills a commendable sense of honor, duty, and faith in his character that viewers will find appealing, while also wearing the shadow of a darker past that makes him relatable.

His character’s intense commitment to family is something that is clearly already ingrained in Neal. In fact, this is the veteran actor’s first kissing scene in a movie, having refused to do any in the past, because he’s always viewed it as a form of infidelity. His kissing scene here is during a flashback sequence with his real-life wife, Ruvé McDonough.”

Speaking4Him Podcast #658: The Baxters: Season 1: Episode #8: Food For Thought

 “Before we sit down, uh, I just wanted to say how thankful I am that you both have accepted me back into your family. My actions hurt you, too, and that's something I have to live with. You didn't have to accept my apologies but you did. And every day, I make a promise to myself to be worthy of them. It's important for me that you know how grateful I am. Without your support there wouldn't have been a second chance.”

-Tim Jacobs

www.rottentomatoes.com

Today on the show, I share my review of "The Baxters," Season 1, Episode 8: "Food for Thought." It's Thanksgiving at the Baxter house, and there is plenty for which to thank God. 

From Tim and Keri's beautiful reconciliation to the announcement of their new baby daughter, along with the warmth and fun of having the entire family together, this episode will definitely tug at your heartstrings!

Throughout the episode, we see Luke and Ashley facing a similar struggle, but they handle it in very different ways, which ultimately drives them apart instead of bringing them closer. Reagan encourages compassion, while Ashley creates an awkward moment for Ryan Taylor.

Listen Here and then take a moment to be thankful that even in chaos, God is faithful!

 "And those twelve stones, which they took out of Jordan, did Joshua pitch in Gilgal.

And he spake unto the children of Israel, saying, When your children shall ask their fathers in time to come, saying, What mean these stones? 

Then ye shall let your children know, saying, Israel came over this Jordan on dry land. For the Lord your God dried up the waters of Jordan from before you, until ye were passed over, as the Lord your God did to the Red sea, which he dried up from before us, until we were gone over:

That all the people of the earth might know the hand of the Lord, that it is mighty: that ye might fear the Lord your God for ever." Joshua 4:20-24

 "For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.

“But unto Hannah he gave a worthy portion; for he loved Hannah: but the Lord had shut up her womb.  And her adversary also provoked her sore, for to make her fret, because the Lord had shut up her womb.” 

1 Samuel 1:5-6

"And they rose up in the morning early, and worshipped before the LORD, and returned, and came to their house to Ramah: and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and the LORD remembered her. 

Wherefore it came to pass, when the time was come about after Hannah had conceived, that she bare a son, and called his name Samuel, saying, Because I have asked him of the LORD.” 

1 Samuel 1:19-20
