This story is seldom told because it is almost too much to tell. It isn\u2019t funny or flippant, but it is one unforgettable leadership lesson. I was young when this happened and didn\u2019t fully understand it at the time, but I\u2019ve never stopped thinking about it.<br \/>\nMy dad was a tolerant, gentle man who had little use for laziness or naysayers, and he lived his life by the motto\u00a0Acta Non\u00a0Verba, action not talk. Deeds not words. That was my father\u2019s motto\u00a0.\u00a0.\u00a0. and if those elements of his personality got him in hot water at times, they were also his greatest strengths.<br \/>\nIt\u2019s 1969 or 1970, and we\u2019re driving a country highway, somewhere near my older brother Geoff\u2019s house in New Mexico. We\u2019ve picked up Geoff and his wife Nancy, and now the five of us\u2014Geoff, Nancy, Mom, Dad, and me\u2014are headed somewhere that I\u2019ve long since forgotten. The road is winding along the side of a mountain, with a drop of a few hundred feet on one side and a steep cliff on the other. We pass occasional stray rocks that have fallen and clutter the side of the road.<br \/>\nWe round a sharp corner, and there\u2019s a car dangling over the edge of the roadway, just like a movie. The front wheels are over the edge, and it looks like the car could go over at any moment. Three seconds later, we skid to a stop behind the car, and Dad jumps out. Geoff jumps out.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-6669 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.navpress.com\/sites\/thedisciplemaker\/wp-content\/uploads\/wade-lambert-767095-unsplash-300x171.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"171\" \/><br \/>\nMom spins toward the backseat, arm out. \u201cDon\u2019t you get out, Roy! You stay right\u2014\u201d<br \/>\nI jump out anyway. I see Dad at the driver\u2019s door. I see Geoff lugging a large rock and wedging it behind one of the woman\u2019s rear tires. I copy my brother, sprinting for a nearby rock and carrying it back to the car. I hear the woman driver through her open window, sobbing, sobbing, and I can see Dad\u2019s lips moving. His hands are out, palms down, like he\u2019s trying to calm her.<br \/>\nMom and Nancy are at the side of the road now, waving their arms. I know they\u2019re flagging down someone willing to race to the closest pay phone to call for help.<br \/>\nGeoff and I add another two rocks, and another two. We wedge them in as tight as we can because every few seconds the car lurches, like the driver has her foot on the brake and the accelerator at the same time.<br \/>\nThe tires are as secure as we\u2019re going to make them, and we stop to breathe. I glance at Geoff as the woman revs the engine again. We both know: She\u2019s trying to kill herself.<br \/>\nI sidle slightly closer to Dad, despite the terror in my chest. I hear him talking. Calm and low, but firm, like I\u2019ve heard him talk to a horse before. He\u2019s telling the woman everything he\u2019s about to do, step by step, and when I hear it my chest gets even tighter.<br \/>\nHis actions match every word. The next few seconds feel like years as we watch. He touches the door, takes the handle, opens the door, gently talking all the while. He puts one hand on the steering wheel and then\u2014don\u2019t Dad, don\u2019t\u2014he eases in so his right hip is on the seat and his right leg is inside the car. He\u2019s not asking the woman, he\u2019s telling. He presses down on the brake pedal with his right foot, he uses his left foot to set the emergency brake, he reaches over with his right hand and shifts the transmission into park.<br \/>\nThe woman\u2019s head is in her hands and she\u2019s sobbing louder than ever and then she just\u00a0.\u00a0.\u00a0. goes limp. She gives up.<br \/>\nDad turns off the ignition and takes out the keys, and then his body relaxes too. He\u2019s not saying anything now. He\u2019s just sitting close to the woman, close enough for her to slump against him, sobbing, terrified, confused.<br \/>\nI shudder. I walk to my mother, and she puts her arm around me. No one speaks. A few minutes go by, and a car passes. A bird calls high above. A few more minutes pass. Dad hasn\u2019t moved and neither has the woman.<br \/>\nSirens approach. Dad glances over as the police car stops on the shoulder. He turns back to the woman, smiles at her, and steps away from the car. He\u2019s holding the keys.<br \/>\nThe officer steps to the driver\u2019s door. \u201cLicense and registration, please.\u201d<br \/>\nDad is getting ready to hand the keys over, but when he hears the officer, his arm freezes. He fixes the officer with a stare that makes him take a half step back. It\u2019s the stare of a man who grew up poor, who hustled pickles and chocolate cake out of parties so he could eat, who saw death and destruction as he fought for his country in a world war, who pulled greasy parts of wrecked cars so he could support his family, who stared down drug addicts and Hells Angels alike. It was a stare that conveyed disgust, anger, and fearlessness. It was also a stare of desperation, of a man who had just risked his life for a stranger without thinking twice. Then Dad shakes his head, hands over the keys, and strides back to our car.<br \/>\nWe get back in our car. I face the front and see Dad\u2019s hands shaking a bit on the wheel. Mom is crying silently. My brother and sister-in-law are sitting still beside me, breathing deep.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6670 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.navpress.com\/sites\/thedisciplemaker\/wp-content\/uploads\/1-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" \/><br \/>\nWe pull away. I look back and see the police officer talking to the woman, see the rocks we wedged under her rear wheels. See everything growing smaller.<br \/>\nAnd then we turn the corner.<br \/>\n***<br \/>\nTo this day, I can taste that fear. I can hear the woman\u2019s engine revving, hear the tires lurching against the dirt and the rocks.<br \/>\nAnd to this day, I believe that event was a beautiful summation of what defined my father. Caring, loving, compassionate, and desperate to see life continue, even in the midst of self-hatred. Especially in the midst of self-hatred.<br \/>\nThe only way he could do that was to act.<br \/>\nNo planning. No deliberation. He simply sprang from the car and figured things out as he went along. I believe that\u2019s why the policeman\u2019s manner infuriated my father. Having acted without regard for his own safety, Dad became disgusted by the insistence on procedural routine. The officer missed the main point: There was a desperate woman who needed help.<br \/>\nThat was the only point my father had seen.<br \/>\nDad was a special man. I knew that as a kid. I know it even better now that he is gone.<\/p>\n<h3>Salvaged from Scripture<\/h3>\n<p>After a story like that, well, where can we go from here? Scripture is filled with stories we could use. But after consulting with my publisher, the decision has been made not to include the entire book of James.<br \/>\nWe\u2019ve also decided not to include Isaiah 1:16-17 (or hundreds of other verses from that book).<br \/>\nOr the Sermon on the Mount. Or Matthew 25:34-46.<br \/>\nOr Hosea 6.<br \/>\nOr Amos 5:21-24.<br \/>\nIn fact, now that I\u2019ve wasted all this time with preamble, I only have space for three more sentences.<br \/>\nRead everything I just mentioned. But if you can\u2019t find the time for that, here\u2019s the condensed version.<br \/>\nI will show you my faith by my deeds.<br \/>\nJames 2:18<\/p>\n<h3>Lesson from the Junkyard<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cI will show you my faith by my deeds\u201d (James 2:18).<br \/>\nYou have just read an excerpt from <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2HiHgbQ\"><em>Salvaged: Leadership Lessons Pulled from the Junkyard<\/em><\/a> by Roy Goble.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6671 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.navpress.com\/sites\/thedisciplemaker\/wp-content\/uploads\/2-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Acta non verba.
