I started cooking when I was very young. I just stumbled upon his videos now and am going to share them with my father who is 65 and taught me everything tomorrow.

[@macycharmin]

I just happened upon this channel this morning, never heard of him. The other video I watched was of him mom's chicken ala king, and I thought how weird that there is a restaurant in CT named Daddy Jack's and thought how could it be that Dallas had a restaurant of the same name. I thought it was odd that the interior while them sitting at the bar looked similar to the Dallas location, so I looked him up. Low and behold, the same guy. In '93 I moved to the M-Street area off Lower Greenville Avenue in Big D where Daddy Jacks was located. I had heard of the restaurant for years and decided to give it a try. It was fabulous, i was really sad when the restaurant closed.

[@bigsistermaria5578]

Why do people think that when people die they go to heaven. If Jesus is not someone's Lord and Savior then there is one other place to go. People think that if a person is good they go to heaven . But Jesus himself said no one is good except God. Think about this , if being good gets a person to heaven then how is good determined ? Is it how often a good deed is done? Getting to heaven is not based on works. The Bible says the heart of man is desperately wicked. The only way a sinful heart is changed is if God changes it by faith in Jesus Christ His son . Jesus died on the cross and 3 days later He rose from the dead. Jesus is the only way , the truth and the life and no one can see God except by Him. We can only hope that big daddy is in the arms of Christ.
