Delony says every blessing he has is rooted in the Hub City.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">\u201cIt\u2019s where I met my wife. It\u2019s where I was challenged by my psychology professors that ultimately were the ones who lit the fire under me to start exploring how human beings work,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">After working at both universities and with the police department\u2019s crisis intervention team, Delony moved to Nashville. He joined Ramsey Solutions a few years ago.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">\u201cIn the summer, I would paint dorm rooms so that me and my wife could pay off our student loans,\u201d Delony said. \u201cBut the radio behind us was playing some guy named Dave Ramsey who was hollering about getting out of debt.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">Delony said he never thought he would meet Ramsey, let alone work with him. Now thousands of people tune in to his show where he takes calls and helps people with mental health issues.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">\u201cThey said, hey, nobody cares about how smart you are,\u201d Delony said. \u201cWhat people are really drawn to is they\u2019ve never seen a big, loud, tattooed up Texan sit with somebody who just blew up her marriage. They\u2019ve never heard somebody that looks like you say, I was wrong, I messed up, and I need to do something different in my life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">Delony says his best friends are still the roommates he met back at LCU. He still contacts his professors for advice, and comes back to West Texas to unplug. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">\u201cComing home to Lubbock, it feels like I\u2019m walking back into my old house and it\u2019s just good to see everybody,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | text-start article-text\">The Dr. John Delony Show will be held Thursday at 7:30 p.m. in the McDonald Moody Auditorium at LCU.
