The Revelation of Jesus with Rick Sterling!

Easy Expert~

Yesterday after our program The Bible on Trial finished at 11AM, a friend of mine came over to the house to help both Rick and me to deal with some car issues that have been presenting for a while. Ricks little red car has an ongoing coolant leak that he could not find, and I have been working on our 6 month 'new' 2006 Ford F-150 little by little to get it squared away such that I know it will do the job, and also go the distance. I have found that expert help (in many things) is often called for when dealing with either unknowns (in Rick's case), or in having an expert do a job that even though I could do it, I am no longer physically capable. For me climbing underneath a vehicle is actually dangerous, and I avoid when posslbe.

While I was setting up my truck for the needed repair that Richard would do for me (sway-bar bushings and end-links), and new Iridium spark plugs that I would do while he was doing the other job, Richard was giving advice to Rick about the coolant issue. 

This thing that I really like about Richard is that he is an 'Easy Expert'; He gives advice, and does the job, without making you feel like a fool for not having thought of that solution yourself. And when I got stuck trying to remove that last two spark plugs from a very tight space, he had the tools in his truck that I needed but did not have. He really helped both of us in a way that gave us confidence that we actually could fix the problems.

When we confront people with issues involving Truth and Lies we need to be the 'Easy Expert', Why use a sledge hammer when a ball peen hammer will do the job better. A gentle approach is often the best way to allow a person to see the truth, and figure it out on their own, without accusing them of being an idiot. If a person is open to the truth, and there is enough time, they will see the truth when presented. If not, then use a bigger hammer.
