00:00:09.300 --> 00:00:13.220
Listen, how do you conduct your life in this world in such a way where you are

4
00:00:13.220 --> 00:00:17.500
involved in business? You got to make a living, which also love the Lord Jesus Christ.

5
00:00:17.500 --> 00:00:22.140
How do you make that work? Well, today we're going to sit down with Lindsey Snyder, the CEO and

6
00:00:22.140 --> 00:00:23.860

Today, if this podcast lifts you up and encourages you to live a more fulfilled life in Christ,

9
00:00:38.860 --> 00:00:44.860
then make sure you leave us one of those five star ratings. To us, that's like saying amen

or yes, then that rating will encourage others to listen. Now open your hearts to what God's

11
00:00:50.860 --> 00:00:54.860
word has to say to you. Here is Jack Hibbs.

12
00:00:54.860 --> 00:01:00.860
We are so excited about this special program today and I think you will be too. If you have

13
00:01:00.860 --> 00:01:05.860
trafficked anywhere, frankly, originally in Southern California, but now beyond in

14
00:01:05.860 --> 00:01:10.860
various states, you have come across along the freeway, along the highways, In-N-Out Burger.

15
00:01:10.860 --> 00:01:16.860
It's a California icon and we love it. It's been around for what some 75 years now

16
00:01:16.860 --> 00:01:23.860
coming up and it really needs no introduction to you because it has stayed true to its vision.

17
00:01:23.860 --> 00:01:29.860
Today, we have with us Lindsey Snyder. She is the CEO and President of In-N-Out Burger

18
00:01:29.860 --> 00:01:36.860
and a beloved icon as well. We're going to be talking to Lindsey today about what God

19
00:01:36.860 --> 00:01:44.860
has done in her life and what's next for her life and for the great business of In-N-Out Burger.

20
00:01:44.860 --> 00:01:49.860
So, Lindsey, it's awesome to have you here. We're so excited to have you. We have anticipated

21
00:01:49.860 --> 00:01:54.860
this. I see that you have a new book. We've heard about the book coming out. I'm going to hold it

22
00:01:54.860 --> 00:02:00.860
up the first thing because we all grow up on In-N-Out Burger here. I wanted to take a bite

23
00:02:00.860 --> 00:02:06.860
out of the book. There should probably be marks right here in the graphics. It is excellent.

24
00:02:06.860 --> 00:02:09.860
And congratulations on the book. Thank you.

25
00:02:09.860 --> 00:02:14.860
And we're going to find out more and more about it. But before we do that, it's my understanding

26
00:02:14.860 --> 00:02:21.860
that you became President of In-N-Out Burger 2010. So, that's been a long time. Even though

27
00:02:21.860 --> 00:02:26.860
you're a young woman, that's been a long time. So, you inherited this amazing work of your

28
00:02:26.860 --> 00:02:31.860
family and you were, what, in your early 20s, I think it was. Something like that?

29
00:02:31.860 --> 00:02:39.860
Yeah, well, I was 17 when my dad died. And so, from that time on, you know, it was trustees.

30
00:02:39.860 --> 00:02:46.860
And when I was 18, I was already in the office, immersed in the business. And, yeah, so when I was

31
00:02:46.860 --> 00:02:49.860
27, it was when I became the President.

32
00:02:49.860 --> 00:02:55.860
Yeah, absolutely amazing. And so, we know as the end user, and this is something that I'm

33
00:02:55.860 --> 00:03:00.860
dying to ask you. And we can back up and pick up on some things, but I want to get this out.

34
00:03:00.860 --> 00:03:07.860
In an age and in a time when so much in America, when it comes to the service industry,

35
00:03:07.860 --> 00:03:13.860
has waned, faded. Frankly, many of it has just fallen apart.

36
00:03:13.860 --> 00:03:19.860
How is it that you guys literally not only kept your standards during COVID,

37
00:03:19.860 --> 00:03:24.860
when so many businesses compromised, I honestly mean this.

38
00:03:24.860 --> 00:03:30.860
Everywhere we went, there was a change in the product. You guys didn't change at all.

39
00:03:30.860 --> 00:03:37.860
Your staff was even more gracious. Your employees, which you have nearly 40,000 employees,

40
00:03:37.860 --> 00:03:43.860
they were amazing. And your product didn't skip a beat. How did you guys maintain that?

41
00:03:43.860 --> 00:03:46.860
How did you keep that strong?

42
00:03:46.860 --> 00:03:57.860
Well, we have very high standards, and we don't compromise those standards in our values.

43
00:03:57.860 --> 00:04:03.860
Just sticking with what my grandparents started and continuing to do those things.

44
00:04:03.860 --> 00:04:10.860
There's been temptations through the years. This is cheaper. This is easier. This is easier to get.

45
00:04:10.860 --> 00:04:17.860
And we've just said no. So business is usual.

46
00:04:17.860 --> 00:04:21.860
Somewhat, we had a lot of obstacles during those times.

47
00:04:21.860 --> 00:04:28.860
We made it tough to have the interaction that we like to have in our service.

48
00:04:28.860 --> 00:04:33.860
Because we are known for our customer service and the friendliness and the smiles.

49
00:04:33.860 --> 00:04:39.860
A time where you couldn't see the smiles was tough and kind of hurt our atmosphere a little bit,

50
00:04:39.860 --> 00:04:45.860
because we say that the smiles are part of your uniform.

51
00:04:45.860 --> 00:04:55.860
Lots of training. We do lots of training. We invest a lot of time in just really bringing in our new hires up to speed

52
00:04:55.860 --> 00:05:05.860
with what it announced all about, and the culture, and the family parts, and the quality, the cleanliness, the friendliness.

53
00:05:05.860 --> 00:05:12.860
So there's a lot that goes into it. They work really hard, and I work really hard to keep it all intact.

54
00:05:12.860 --> 00:05:20.860
That's true. And I've heard that from others as well. It's amazing here at the church I pastor, there's a lot of young people.

55
00:05:20.860 --> 00:05:27.860
So it's really great to hear them say, I'm going to get a job in and out. That's how iconic you guys are.

56
00:05:27.860 --> 00:05:34.860
But beyond that, it's not just about the amazing experience and the taste and the quality.

57
00:05:34.860 --> 00:05:43.860
You guys have such high standards that has resonated where people, no matter what their experience is, they know what's good when they have it.

58
00:05:43.860 --> 00:05:49.860
So we have friends that come from out of the country, whatever might be, and then one of the first things we do is introduce them to in and out.

59
00:05:49.860 --> 00:05:53.860
That's just part of the baptism of Southern California culture.

60
00:05:53.860 --> 00:06:06.860
But always there is this level of quality and of commitment, and we've all spied on your staff when we're at the restaurants or driving through,

61
00:06:06.860 --> 00:06:12.860
what am I telling you for? Maybe a quarter of your building corner is glass.

62
00:06:12.860 --> 00:06:19.860
So you can see the guys and gals making the incredible French fries and doing all this stuff they do, and no one's standing around.

63
00:06:19.860 --> 00:06:25.860
It's not like it's a union job or some government job. People are moving, and they're really making it happen.

64
00:06:25.860 --> 00:06:32.860
And I honestly, to me, that's amazing, because it's at every in and out store, which are what?

65
00:06:32.860 --> 00:06:35.860
Over 375 stores, I think?

66
00:06:35.860 --> 00:06:37.860
390 stores.

67
00:06:37.860 --> 00:06:42.860
And growing, sale fast, we're growing, we're at 375.

68
00:06:42.860 --> 00:06:55.860
Every store is the same experience, which uniformity, everybody knows in business, and you kind of want it even in production or in church work, is everyone needs to be treated the same.

69
00:06:56.860 --> 00:07:07.860
I know this sounds almost kind of crazy, but you don't think it's crazy, and that is there's actually some sort of a 19, graciousness from God upon this vision that your family started.

70
00:07:07.860 --> 00:07:18.860
And so why the book? What's with the book? Why did Lindsey Snyder think or be driven to write this beautiful book? What's inside here?

71
00:07:18.860 --> 00:07:35.860
Well, it's really the in and out story. My grandfather's vision and the partnership between him and my grandmother, and a little bit of their history, and they both came from very humble and somewhat sad beginnings.

72
00:07:35.860 --> 00:07:50.860
I'm pretty sure my grandfather, Harry's father, told him he would never do anything great, and so there's a lot of neat stories within the history for my family.

73
00:07:50.860 --> 00:08:13.860
We have such a following of customers and loyal customers, and there's been a lot of stuff that's gone out through over time, and I just thought, wow, I'd love to be able to tell the in and out story, the true in and out story, bring people inside, and also the timing doing it when we're celebrating 75 years.

74
00:08:13.860 --> 00:08:31.860
So let me ask you this, when it comes to the pressures I would think in business too, and you kind of alluded to the moment ago, maybe compromise here, we can get these cheaper, so how about that?

75
00:08:31.860 --> 00:08:40.860
How do you maintain? You said you have these standards, and everybody knows that, but how do you get people to stay true to those standards? This is almost like a swearing note.

76
00:08:40.860 --> 00:08:51.860
It's remarkable to maintain, so how do you ensure, how do you guarantee those standards?

77
00:08:51.860 --> 00:09:11.860
No, it's only God, the only answer I could give you. It's Him and something He put inside of me to protect. I feel like I'm a very protective person, but I don't know.

78
00:09:11.860 --> 00:09:23.860
We know we have the Holy Spirit, we have a conscience, but there's just something that hits me when we come to certain decisions, and I say, no, we can't, and I know it's Him.

79
00:09:23.860 --> 00:09:40.860
That is very true. You're a woman of convictions, you're uncompromising. It's for you to say not me, but I do know enough about you, from what we've talked about, that the bumps in life that have come your way, they could have destroyed

80
00:09:40.860 --> 00:09:50.860
and those kinds of bumps do destroy people, and it's actually made you a better person because our God is a redemptive God, and He turns things around.

81
00:09:50.860 --> 00:09:59.860
And so your stronger for it, and what's amazing to me is that if anybody were to see you on the street, they would say, oh, there's a so-called surf girl.

82
00:09:59.860 --> 00:10:12.860
They have no idea that your business savvy, again, you give all credit to God, which is why we're sitting here together right now, but God has given you a business savvy vision.

83
00:10:13.860 --> 00:10:26.860
He has given you that lion heart as a word to defend, but your passions do not rise and fall on in and out burger.

84
00:10:26.860 --> 00:10:37.860
I mean this with all due respect. If Paul the Apostle preached the gospel to the world that he experienced, occasionally he built tents, right?

85
00:10:37.860 --> 00:10:43.860
He made tents as a source of income to keep the ministry going.

86
00:10:43.860 --> 00:10:59.860
I included the world looks at you and they know from your story. She happens to be the the heir of the in and out burger dynasty and all, but it's not what makes her heart beat.

87
00:10:59.860 --> 00:11:05.860
That you have incredible passions that I think the world is going to hear more about.

88
00:11:05.860 --> 00:11:13.860
But would you mind sharing some of those things? I know some of the things that we've talked about. Can you tell us what causes that heart to be it on the inside?

89
00:11:13.860 --> 00:11:26.860
I think internet is for sure part of my ministry and part of my con, but it doesn't define me. It's not my identity.

90
00:11:26.860 --> 00:11:41.860
I feel completely called to speak truth, to stand up for what's right, for righteousness, and I know just in personal ministry, I feel like a little bit of a sheep dog.

91
00:11:41.860 --> 00:11:54.860
I'm kind of the one biting people's ankles, so they love me one moment. I can't see I'm used to it. I don't know if anyone's ever fully used to it.

92
00:11:54.860 --> 00:12:06.860
But in ministry at least I am familiar with it because you lose people when you speak truth sometimes to them.

93
00:12:06.860 --> 00:12:18.860
It's true, but at the end of the day, you'd rather lay your head down on the pillow being true to the conviction rather than the compromise.

94
00:12:18.860 --> 00:12:34.860
Love is the ultimate goal and it is what makes my heart my day everything is just knowing that God's love saved me, God's love redeemed me, and his grace of love.

95
00:12:34.860 --> 00:12:42.860
So for me, I want to carry that to the world and sometimes it's unpopular.

96
00:12:42.860 --> 00:12:49.860
Well, it's unpopular because if you came presenting that grace and that love and some other name, nobody really care.

97
00:12:49.860 --> 00:13:10.860
But the moment that Jesus is found out to be in your life, in your book, or for those of you who don't know, if you go to In and Out Burger, which I love this, and you look under the cup through the wrapping, the French fry holder, whatever it might be.

98
00:13:10.860 --> 00:13:20.860
Yeah, the boat. You're going to find Bible verses that have been there. Was that originally, when did that come in? Was it with your uncle?

99
00:13:20.860 --> 00:13:28.860
We traced it down. We believe it was actually 1988 that my uncle started putting it on the packet.

100
00:13:28.860 --> 00:13:38.860
And then you've added some Bible verses. Did you have to get like board approval or corporate? You just did it.

101
00:13:38.860 --> 00:13:42.860
I love it. You just did it.

102
00:13:42.860 --> 00:13:57.860
So what I know about Jesus Christ is Isaiah 9.6, which talks about Jesus Christ in the Old Testament, about being the Savior of the world, the Messiah, the governments of the nations rest upon his shoulders. He's the Almighty God, the counselor, the wonderful one.

103
00:13:57.860 --> 00:14:08.860
You're bold out there with your witness. And yet we know for a fact, so do you, that atheist go to In and Out Burger. The product is so good that you just have to go.

104
00:14:08.860 --> 00:14:20.860
And I love how that's a reflection of God's goodness to your family. And your family has gone through its experiences. It ties in its lows.

105
00:14:20.860 --> 00:14:30.860
And for those, even though now you're not limited to Southern California, you're in like five or seven states. Seven states now.

106
00:14:30.860 --> 00:14:41.860
More and more people are hearing about what makes In and Out Burger work. And so what about this? What would you say to someone today that is thinking, you know what?

107
00:14:41.860 --> 00:14:59.860
I've had fear. I've had others. I've had abuse. Define my life. I guess this is me. I guess it's just my plight in life. Almost kind of giving up without giving up. What would you say to somebody who's just doesn't see a purpose to go on?

108
00:14:59.860 --> 00:15:19.860
Yeah, well, I think the first thing I would tell them is that God's not finished with them and that He loves them. And that, you know, I probably share a lot of my story, a lot of my failures or times where I felt, you know, that there was no hope for me to do anything good with my life.

109
00:15:19.860 --> 00:15:36.860
And, you know, just share that, you know, there's absolute hope in that, you know, I believe sharing other testimonies, your own and others just kind of charges people in it. There's power in that.

110
00:15:36.860 --> 00:15:52.860
And so, you know, it makes me very sad to encounter people like that, but honestly, they're everywhere. And so, you know, us being faithful to have those conversations in the first place and just taking the time.

111
00:15:52.860 --> 00:16:02.860
And, you know, I send scriptures. Sometimes people that don't even really believe, I still send them scriptures. And I almost act like they believe.

112
00:16:02.860 --> 00:16:12.860
It's a good word because, you know, when you treat unbelievers like believers, they have a tendency to become believers. Just treat them like a believer.

113
00:16:12.860 --> 00:16:17.860
Yeah. Instead of feeling like there's a division, I just kind of bring them.

114
00:16:17.860 --> 00:16:19.860
I love that.

115
00:16:19.860 --> 00:16:21.860
Like, I'm acting like they know what I'm talking about.

116
00:16:21.860 --> 00:16:25.860
I think that's the wisdom of God. I believe that as well. I teach that as well.

117
00:16:25.860 --> 00:16:35.860
Yeah. Have you, have you, to your knowledge, have you ever heard of anyone at in and out, throughout wherever the Empire coming to Christ?

118
00:16:35.860 --> 00:16:36.860
Oh, yes.

119
00:16:36.860 --> 00:16:38.860
Really? Can you share something about that?

120
00:16:38.860 --> 00:16:54.860
Well, I've had, I've had a few managers that I've led to the Lord. And there's been conversations with different people, whether it's a manager or a division manager's wife sometimes.

121
00:16:54.860 --> 00:17:07.860
There's, gosh, I'm trying to think. I mean, just our VP team alone, we've all committed to some core values for our team as leaders.

122
00:17:07.860 --> 00:17:10.860
And so starting our meetings with prayer.

123
00:17:10.860 --> 00:17:18.860
And, you know, we rotate who starts each one of our meetings, but whoever's last is the one that we build up.

124
00:17:18.860 --> 00:17:25.860
So we all go around the room and affirm them and say things we love about them. So we've incorporated faith as of this year.

125
00:17:25.860 --> 00:17:33.860
I made prayer and us sending each other scriptures and just encouraging one another a thing.

126
00:17:33.860 --> 00:17:39.860
So even our VP teams actually really, really growing closer to the Lord.

127
00:17:39.860 --> 00:17:47.860
That's amazing. With what you just said, what if there's a business owner right now who's a believer?

128
00:17:47.860 --> 00:17:53.860
But he works, or he has a company, he's a, he created and established it different.

129
00:17:53.860 --> 00:18:02.860
And now he's wanting to get things more like in and out, where he wants to introduce that kind of love that God can spread through the believer.

130
00:18:02.860 --> 00:18:08.860
What would you say to him or her? How did they start that when it was not part of their culture?

131
00:18:08.860 --> 00:18:14.860
What would you say to them as a corporate leader? This is how you could start to do that.

132
00:18:14.860 --> 00:18:22.860
I think the way that I started it was with humility, just sharing my mistakes, sharing my weaknesses.

133
00:18:22.860 --> 00:18:32.860
And then we started teaching servant leadership, we started teaching, you know, the story of the shepherd.

134
00:18:32.860 --> 00:18:42.860
And, you know, I think there's just, there's so many, there's so many valuable lessons in the Bible that people can just, whether they're a believer or not, they can learn from.

135
00:18:42.860 --> 00:19:02.860
And so, you know, just sprinkling that stuff in, and then, you know, being super open, you know, I think being vulnerable is scary for people because, you know, they didn't go, I'm going to be, I'm going to be misjudged or they're going to think I'm not strong.

136
00:19:02.860 --> 00:19:12.860
If I share my weaknesses and, and I tell them it's just the opposite, it takes strength to put that stuff out there because, because people are going to judge.

137
00:19:12.860 --> 00:19:21.860
So, you either say, I don't care or, you know, you let that fear keep you from being free.

138
00:19:21.860 --> 00:19:28.860
Well, isn't it true that people are actually, and maybe we are too, without knowing constantly judging, we're constantly making assessments.

139
00:19:28.860 --> 00:19:30.860
It's just human nature.

140
00:19:30.860 --> 00:19:40.860
But you're saying a powerful thing because you mentioned which is the key model of Jesus, and that is servant leadership.

141
00:19:40.860 --> 00:19:44.860
I mean, most of the world has no idea, what do you mean, talking about servant leadership, what is that?

142
00:19:44.860 --> 00:19:53.860
It's so leading by example that you're willing to do the job first. I know that you started out as an associate, and that's doing the work first.

143
00:19:53.860 --> 00:20:05.860
And so, in life, if you see a leader, I mean, Jesus himself modeled it so perfectly when at the end of his earthly ministry, just before he goes to the cross, you would think that that's the time to flex.

144
00:20:05.860 --> 00:20:10.860
And what does he do? He gets on his knees and he washes the disciples' feet.

145
00:20:10.860 --> 00:20:14.860
There's no greater picture than that being lived out.

146
00:20:14.860 --> 00:20:22.860
Listen, Lindsay, with your permission, can you share with us some of the other things that you're involved in?

147
00:20:22.860 --> 00:20:28.860
There's a lot of work that you do that the world's not aware of.

148
00:20:28.860 --> 00:20:36.860
I don't know, maybe you want the world to not be aware of it, but you do not sit idle.

149
00:20:36.860 --> 00:20:49.860
You are out there on the edge, especially now, with the danger of child abduction going on in kidnapping and trafficking.

150
00:20:49.860 --> 00:20:52.860
Talk to us about that.

151
00:20:52.860 --> 00:21:06.860
Yeah, slave to nothing is one of our foundations that we've started nonprofit that we've started and targeting to fight both substance abuse and human trafficking.

152
00:21:06.860 --> 00:21:20.860
And there's just too much help there from illegal drugs to all the prescription drugs to things that are now making legal.

153
00:21:20.860 --> 00:21:30.860
It's just an alcohol addiction. It's just terrible. And it tears families apart. It kills people. It's very destructive.

154
00:21:30.860 --> 00:21:40.860
I experienced that losing my father, young. My husband experienced that losing his younger brother at age 23.

155
00:21:40.860 --> 00:21:48.860
So for us, we're all in that fight to make a difference.

156
00:21:48.860 --> 00:21:55.860
With the human trafficking piece, I've shared this before, but it's just, it's something God literally dropped on my lap.

157
00:21:55.860 --> 00:22:08.860
I did not know and did not think, oh, this is something I'm going to be involved in. It was just when we were starting to form the foundation, it was like, you're going to fight this too.

158
00:22:09.860 --> 00:22:18.860
So we had some advice that, oh, you need to focus on one cause. You can't have two. Well, God says two, so we're doing two.

159
00:22:18.860 --> 00:22:21.860
You made the number two.

160
00:22:21.860 --> 00:22:31.860
So yeah, but we're helping hundreds of different boots on the ground organizations that are fighting both of these causes.

161
00:22:31.860 --> 00:22:40.860
And in and out puts the money forward for all of our events. So when people are donating, that money is going directly to help and save lives.

162
00:22:41.860 --> 00:22:58.860
I know. Is this a certain time of the year, to be honest with you, I didn't pay attention, but when you pull up, for those of you who don't know, in and out burger is so dynamic and prolific that you get served before you ever get to the building.

163
00:22:58.860 --> 00:23:05.860
Because you guys pretty much take over parking lots where the sociators out there taking the orders, right?

164
00:23:05.860 --> 00:23:19.860
And I remember just waiting in line, pulling up, pulling up, pulling up, which if I remember right in and out was California's first drive through a restaurant or diner like that, which is historic, what, 1948?

165
00:23:19.860 --> 00:23:21.860
Yeah.

166
00:23:21.860 --> 00:23:33.860
But you had, you had stanchions or signs saying something about human trafficking, how you can help, how you can participate in human trafficking.

167
00:23:33.860 --> 00:23:43.860
Thanks. So it's very, very public. It's very, very part of the extended love and commitment that in and out has beyond.

168
00:23:44.860 --> 00:23:59.860
Just serving up a great product. What can Lindsay tell us about other passions? I mean, if you can't think of any, I know some of yours and I will bring them up because I share a few of those things.

169
00:23:59.860 --> 00:24:06.860
But who's Lindsay outside the corporate boardroom in the restaurant business?

170
00:24:06.860 --> 00:24:14.860
Well, I think there's a lot. There's a lot of different things. I feel like I'm 41, but I feel like I'm a lot, I have like a old soul.

171
00:24:14.860 --> 00:24:19.860
Like a lot, you know. But we're talking hobbies, ministry.

172
00:24:19.860 --> 00:24:25.860
I'm talking about some of the amazing passions you have for speed, for cars.

173
00:24:25.860 --> 00:24:32.860
There's some guys behind these cameras that are major car guys also. Where did that come from?

174
00:24:32.860 --> 00:24:36.860
I mean, you like driving fast and you and you've got some fast toys.

175
00:24:36.860 --> 00:24:49.860
Yeah, my dad loved drag racing. He built cars when he was young and his dad, my grandfather, actually was a part owner of the original R1 Dale Speedway way back when.

176
00:24:49.860 --> 00:24:56.860
So my dad was super young, testing his cars there and racing.

177
00:24:56.860 --> 00:25:05.860
So that love was just there for me from the beginning because I would watch my dad work on his cars and he'd take me for a ride when he was done.

178
00:25:05.860 --> 00:25:10.860
It was just going to Pomona to the drag races when I was little.

179
00:25:10.860 --> 00:25:15.860
You know, there's something about you either have it or you don't, you know, and I just have always loved it.

180
00:25:15.860 --> 00:25:25.860
And I didn't get to actually start racing until after he passed away. So there's also a special thing there for me when I race, you know, just kind of connecting to my dad.

181
00:25:25.860 --> 00:25:26.860
It's amazing.

182
00:25:26.860 --> 00:25:31.860
Yeah, so I do love drag racing.

183
00:25:31.860 --> 00:25:35.860
I also want to band with my husband.

184
00:25:35.860 --> 00:25:37.860
The 38 special.

185
00:25:37.860 --> 00:25:38.860
The 48 special.

186
00:25:38.860 --> 00:25:40.860
Yeah, you get the 48 now.

187
00:25:40.860 --> 00:25:42.860
Explain that in 1948.

188
00:25:42.860 --> 00:25:46.860
Yeah, explain that seriously. You have the time to be in a band.

189
00:25:46.860 --> 00:25:59.860
I make the time. So it's, you know, there are so many things I'm spread so thin and I wouldn't have it any other way because I know time is short and, you know, long as my priorities are in the right order.

190
00:25:59.860 --> 00:26:11.860
And I know when to pull back from one thing or the other than, you know, but the band is all internet associates.

191
00:26:11.860 --> 00:26:14.860
So it's, you know, family on top of family.

192
00:26:14.860 --> 00:26:19.860
And we perform mostly company events.

193
00:26:19.860 --> 00:26:25.860
We've, we've done something public before and, you know, might do something in the future, but, you know, we all work full time.

194
00:26:25.860 --> 00:26:29.860
So it's kind of hard to pull up other shows.

195
00:26:29.860 --> 00:26:32.860
But we're performing at our 75th, which is coming up.

196
00:26:32.860 --> 00:26:33.860
Yeah, when is that coming up?

197
00:26:33.860 --> 00:26:41.860
And I heard a rumor that it's actually going to be at the Pomona Los Angeles where they host the...

198
00:26:41.860 --> 00:26:45.860
It's the, well, it's now in a now burger Pomona drag strip.

199
00:26:45.860 --> 00:26:49.860
But it, okay. But don't they hold the winter nationals there?

200
00:26:49.860 --> 00:26:50.860
Yeah.

201
00:26:50.860 --> 00:26:52.860
The iconic winter nationals.

202
00:26:52.860 --> 00:26:57.860
So you guys are going to host your, what is it, a picnic gay level?

203
00:26:57.860 --> 00:26:58.860
Festival.

204
00:26:58.860 --> 00:26:59.860
A festival.

205
00:26:59.860 --> 00:27:03.860
Yeah, there'll be bands kind of through the decades on a couple different stages.

206
00:27:03.860 --> 00:27:07.860
Yeah, surf, bands, Motown, 80s.

207
00:27:07.860 --> 00:27:09.860
From all the in and out era.

208
00:27:09.860 --> 00:27:14.860
Yes. And then rides, food, of course, in and out.

209
00:27:14.860 --> 00:27:15.860
Yeah.

210
00:27:15.860 --> 00:27:19.860
Drag racing, car show.

211
00:27:19.860 --> 00:27:26.860
And then in the evening, our rock to freedom event, which we hold in October each year,

212
00:27:26.860 --> 00:27:27.860
has been each year.

213
00:27:27.860 --> 00:27:33.860
It's been an event to fight substance abuse is October.

214
00:27:33.860 --> 00:27:36.860
And the January is the human trafficking month.

215
00:27:36.860 --> 00:27:40.860
So work, like, let's just throw this into this event.

216
00:27:40.860 --> 00:27:44.860
The rock to freedom will be in the evening at the festival.

217
00:27:44.860 --> 00:27:46.860
So we need to start wrapping this up.

218
00:27:46.860 --> 00:27:49.860
But is there anything that you can, can people help with this?

219
00:27:49.860 --> 00:27:52.860
Because it's such a labor of love.

220
00:27:52.860 --> 00:27:55.860
It's beyond the celebration of the in and out family.

221
00:27:55.860 --> 00:27:58.860
It's to reach others that are truly in bondage.

222
00:27:58.860 --> 00:27:59.860
Yeah.

223
00:27:59.860 --> 00:28:02.860
Can, what can somebody do on the other end of this lens?

224
00:28:02.860 --> 00:28:04.860
What, what can they do?

225
00:28:04.860 --> 00:28:09.860
Well, you know, the awareness is one piece.

226
00:28:09.860 --> 00:28:17.860
And then just if someone is looking for, you know, somewhere to give back, you know,

227
00:28:17.860 --> 00:28:21.860
jumping in one of these fights, you know, you can go to slave to nothing.org.

228
00:28:21.860 --> 00:28:23.860
Slave to nothing, the number two.

229
00:28:23.860 --> 00:28:24.860
And number two.

230
00:28:24.860 --> 00:28:26.860
Slave the number two, nothings.

231
00:28:26.860 --> 00:28:27.860
I love that.

232
00:28:27.860 --> 00:28:29.860
Slave to nothing.org.

233
00:28:29.860 --> 00:28:30.860
Yeah.

234
00:28:30.860 --> 00:28:31.860
Yeah.

235
00:28:31.860 --> 00:28:34.860
And then there's, you know, there's a lot you can learn there.

236
00:28:35.860 --> 00:28:37.860
We work with amazing organizations.

237
00:28:37.860 --> 00:28:42.860
So we can connect people to others if there's other outreach things they want to do.

238
00:28:42.860 --> 00:28:44.860
So we also have a community engagement team.

239
00:28:44.860 --> 00:28:49.860
Where would, this is going to air on various platforms.

240
00:28:49.860 --> 00:28:56.860
And so where would either an entrepreneur or a business owner or someone,

241
00:28:56.860 --> 00:29:00.860
how do they find out more, or do they about business and connecting?

242
00:29:00.860 --> 00:29:02.860
And I want to know the in-and-out model or whatever.

243
00:29:02.860 --> 00:29:10.860
Is there a place for them to contact leadership at in-and-out or to find out, you know?

244
00:29:10.860 --> 00:29:14.860
Not exactly, but I mean, people organically it kind of happens.

245
00:29:14.860 --> 00:29:15.860
They could read the book.

246
00:29:15.860 --> 00:29:16.860
They could read the book.

247
00:29:16.860 --> 00:29:17.860
They could read the book.

248
00:29:17.860 --> 00:29:18.860
Yeah.

249
00:29:18.860 --> 00:29:19.860
That's a great option.

250
00:29:19.860 --> 00:29:20.860
Yeah, that's right.

251
00:29:20.860 --> 00:29:21.860
I think you'd appreciate that.

252
00:29:21.860 --> 00:29:22.860
We'd all appreciate that.

253
00:29:22.860 --> 00:29:26.860
Is there, before, last thing, last question I hope comes this way perhaps.

254
00:29:26.860 --> 00:29:31.860
Is there anything that I should have asked Lindsey Snyder before we wrap this up?

255
00:29:31.860 --> 00:29:37.860
Well, I'd like to just share my husband and I have a ministry called Army of Love.

256
00:29:37.860 --> 00:29:42.860
And that is another big piece of my heart.

257
00:29:42.860 --> 00:29:47.860
And it's just, you know, equipping the saints for the work of ministry.

258
00:29:47.860 --> 00:29:50.860
It's really a discipleship program that's online.

259
00:29:50.860 --> 00:29:53.860
And it's not pulling anyone away from their churches.

260
00:29:53.860 --> 00:29:57.860
It's they can stay on their churches if they want to go deeper and kind of pursue that on their own.

261
00:29:57.860 --> 00:30:01.860
You know, it's a way to launch them further into their walk.

262
00:30:01.860 --> 00:30:05.860
And then they can take that anywhere, you know, where their ministry is.

263
00:30:05.860 --> 00:30:09.860
And we also have the opportunity for them to be mentors and mentor others.

264
00:30:09.860 --> 00:30:22.860
And then as we're building this army up, we're wanting to deploy, you know, right now we have little, you know, people going out and helping others and connecting and making those connections, honestly, across the states.

265
00:30:22.860 --> 00:30:25.860
And also in Africa and some other countries.

266
00:30:25.860 --> 00:30:33.860
But my goal is to build up a huge army of believers, whether they're, you know, in churches over here or over there.

267
00:30:33.860 --> 00:30:38.860
That's what we kind of call the church of no walls because it's just bringing the body of Christ together.

268
00:30:38.860 --> 00:30:45.860
And so when unbelievers or believers are asking for help, you know, then we can be there for them.

269
00:30:45.860 --> 00:31:00.860
And my heart is big for people that are in leadership because I understand that leaders do not want to necessarily show their weaknesses because they're afraid of people not following them or trusting them.

270
00:31:00.860 --> 00:31:06.860
And I think there's a lot of Christian leaders that kind of silently suffer.

271
00:31:06.860 --> 00:31:11.860
And so my heart is definitely there for them wanting to help.

272
00:31:11.860 --> 00:31:13.860
Very, very true.

273
00:31:13.860 --> 00:31:16.860
ArmyofLove.org.

274
00:31:16.860 --> 00:31:18.860
ArmyofLove.com.

275
00:31:18.860 --> 00:31:22.860
In fact, let me put this plug in closing.

276
00:31:22.860 --> 00:31:31.860
So today in the world around us, it's certainly true in America that so many churches have gotten either woke or weak.

277
00:31:31.860 --> 00:31:35.860
But the saints are not just being fed like they should be fed.

278
00:31:35.860 --> 00:31:45.860
And if you are anywhere and your church is not meeting that discipleship needing your life, if you're not growing as a believer, then you're stagnant.

279
00:31:45.860 --> 00:31:47.860
And you don't want to experience that.

280
00:31:47.860 --> 00:31:49.860
You want to grow deeper with Jesus every day.

281
00:31:49.860 --> 00:31:55.860
And so I think that armyofLove.com would be a great vitamin boost.

282
00:31:55.860 --> 00:31:58.860
It could be your spiritual meat and potatoes.

283
00:31:58.860 --> 00:32:01.860
Even if you go to a weak church, you could be somewhere in the nation.

284
00:32:01.860 --> 00:32:03.860
You go to a mediocre church.

285
00:32:03.860 --> 00:32:14.860
But listen, you could supplement your diet by in-and-out burger and discipleship.

286
00:32:14.860 --> 00:32:18.860
I mean, that is a lost calling today, which should never be.

287
00:32:18.860 --> 00:32:19.860
It's our number one thing.

288
00:32:19.860 --> 00:32:22.860
Jesus said, go ye therefore into all the world and make disciples.

289
00:32:22.860 --> 00:32:24.860
He didn't even say evangelize.

290
00:32:24.860 --> 00:32:26.860
He said, make disciples.

291
00:32:26.860 --> 00:32:30.860
Once you tell people about Jesus, the next step for the rest of their lives is discipleship.

292
00:32:30.860 --> 00:32:42.860
And so Sean, Lindsey's husband, and Lindsey, and family, and the entire family in-and-out burger, gives you an incredible experience.

293
00:32:42.860 --> 00:32:47.860
And it was with great anticipation and an excitement that we had you here today.

294
00:32:47.860 --> 00:32:57.860
And your whole, your name, your lineage, what you guys have achieved, and what you're doing since 2010,

295
00:32:57.860 --> 00:33:01.860
the company has just exploded under your leadership.

296
00:33:01.860 --> 00:33:03.860
And I just love that.

297
00:33:03.860 --> 00:33:05.860
So we want to see more and more of that.

298
00:33:05.860 --> 00:33:07.860
So Lindsey Snyder has been a honor to have you.

299
00:33:07.860 --> 00:33:08.860
Thank you for having me.

300
00:33:08.860 --> 00:33:09.860
Great seeing you.

301
00:33:09.860 --> 00:33:10.860
God bless you.

302
00:33:10.860 --> 00:33:19.860
Listen friends, always stay tuned to the real-life network where we are committed to causing and calling you to experience a deeper walk with Jesus Christ.

303
00:33:19.860 --> 00:33:23.860
So until next time when we get together, stand with Jesus.

304
00:33:23.860 --> 00:33:25.860
Stand in the Word of God.

305
00:33:25.860 --> 00:33:26.860
Follow Him wherever He goes.

306
00:33:26.860 --> 00:33:28.860
You'll never fail.

307
00:33:28.860 --> 00:33:29.860
And He loves you.

308
00:33:29.860 --> 00:33:31.860
And He died in the cross for you.

309
00:33:31.860 --> 00:33:33.860
And He rose again from the dead.

310
00:33:33.860 --> 00:33:34.860
All for you.

311
00:33:34.860 --> 00:33:35.860
Until next time, God bless you.
