| #162 Are We Unwitting Participants in a Moral Decline? (w/ Amy from Eyes on the Right) | 12 Sep 2024 | 00:49:27 | |
We're joined by Amy from Eyes on the Right Podcast where she dives deep into that which ought not be spoken - CONSPIRACIES! Amy came to Christ and her eyes were unveiled to the realities of sin and darkness not just in human hearts but in high places and entertainment.

| #161 Is Michael Heiser a Heretic? (Responding to Michael Heiser Criticism) Part II | 07 Sep 2024 | 01:24:55 | |
A couple of weeks ago, Doreen Virtue, our friend and fellow party pooper, Marcia Montenegro and 3 others gathered to share their concerns for Brandon's teacher, Dr. Michael Heiser. Though, it is very common for students to defend their teachers, Brandon's desire is to defend the cohesion of scripture and the unity of the body of Christ. Please Rate & Comment! | |||
| #152 Jesus is a Man - A Father's Day Sermon | 21 Jun 2024 | 00:43:59 | |
American society is unhinged and absent masculinity is a symptom of our estranged relationship with God. Something that has been missing in the evangelical church is the worship of God for manhood. We walk on egg shells discussing masculinity because we've bought into the lie that manhood and womanhood is about us rather than the Lord. We live move and have our being in Him. So, we ought to preach relentlessly about biblical masculinity because faithful men glorify the Lord. Also, we ought to take heart in the fact that Jesus is a man. We hope you're encouraged by this sermon by Brandon on Father's Day 2024. Please Rate & Comment! | |||
| Ep. 66: Gaslight - Guns are Evil | 19 Jan 2022 | 00:58:43 | |
Gaslighting is almost a fabric of society today. From covid to racism to biology all the way to freedom; we are told what is happening and how to feel about what is happening regarding things that do not conform to reality. We have to trust what we see. In this episode, we will address a few of the things we are told to believe about guns and the subtle lies that come packaged along with the magic wands of gaslighting within the narrative. Please Rate & Comment! | |||

| Ep. 61: The War on Children pt. 1 w/ Dr. Renee Murrell | 01 Dec 2021 | 00:57:11 | |
It isn't difficult to think through ways that children are under attack in our society.; something that isn't unique to this generation. However, little is known about just how prolific sex trafficking is in this world. Even less is known about just how prolific it is in our society - and in not so subtle ways it is curated into forms of entertainment. We sit with Dr. Renee Murrell, a woman with 40 years of experience with the FBI regarding child trafficking. You'll want pen and paper for this episode! Please Rate & Comment! | |||
| Ep. 60: Zach Attack | 20 Nov 2021 | 00:47:51 | |
While you were sleeping, the Rittenhouse Jury was in deliberation and a former NFL player named Zach Stacy acted in the most cowardly of ways by physically assaulting a woman in a very dreadful way. We discuss the media's handling of events like Kyle Rittenhouse and we discuss the real issue behind the Zach Stacy assault. Please Rate & Comment! | |||
| Ep. 59: Give Us... Justice? | 17 Nov 2021 | 00:55:27 | |
We take a look at the Kyle Rittenhouse trial following the 2020 tragedy during a riot on Kenosha, Wisconsin. The trial has resulted in a lot of discovery. The discovery thus far has shown Rittenhouse to be seemingly innocent of the murder charges thrown at him. So, is this all the trial is about? Is this simply a desire to see the truth upheld and justice prevail? Is this a form of vengeance? Is this another crack at taking citizens' freedom to self-defense? We sit and discuss our take. Please Rate & Comment! | |||
| Ep. 58: Colin in Black and Blurred | 10 Nov 2021 | 00:56:08 | |
Colin Kaepernick has a docudrama-series on Netflix. It seems the only purpose of this tv series is to get a peek into Kap's childhood. But, we should know better than that. We dive into the undercurrent of this docuseries and the epidemic of angered black voices; a group of people with a common denominator. Please Rate & Comment! | |||
| Ep. 57: Where Yall At? | 03 Nov 2021 | 01:11:37 | |
The typical patterns are striking. Rights are infringed upon, people get angry, people are pit against one another and we're on to the next topic afterward. Meanwhile, we waker up with even less freedoms than before. Why do we have to keep dealing with this? For the christian, we can admittedly be upset...but we don't have to be afraid nor hopeless. Check out this freestyle episode on some things that are fading to the background. Please Rate & Comment! | |||
| #151 He Called Us Out on Social Media - The New Evangelical | 20 Jun 2024 | 01:30:15 | |
Tim Whittaker, known by his social media alias, The New Evangelical jumped on one of our posts to critique it and maybe help us reconsider our evangelical/conservative/racists/bigoted/)everything else) allegiances. Going into this episode, we weren't aware that is the case, Even during this friendly debate, it didn't seem like he had pure disdain for all that we believe. However, knowing his social profile more fully, we don't doubt that we worship different Gods. Listen for yourselves - is this episode indicative of The New Evangelicals Views as shared online or just a small taste? Please Rate & Comment! | |||

Worlds collide in this episode where the gospel takes center stage. Please Rate & Comment! | |||
| Ep. 55: Things We've Forgotten | 07 Oct 2021 | 01:10:50 | |
The media cycle has had a stronghold on the culture for a long time. Every election cycle we are at each other's throats for some reason our TV gave us. What if we actually stopped and evaluated the beliefs we claim to hold as a way to genuinely seek truth? On this episode, we revisit some popular moments of outrage and sorrow forced upon us through media narratives and see if that same outrage and sorrow holds the same weight now that a new "team" is leading the country. Please Rate & Comment! | |||
| Ep. 54 - What Exactly Are We Witnessing Part II | 15 Sep 2021 | 01:13:45 | |

| Ep. 53: What Exactly are We Witnessing? | 08 Sep 2021 | 00:59:09 | |
It's time we address some grievances. I know what you're thinking, "you've done that already". No, but seriously, what exactly is happening in our country....or in our world for that matter? Is it something new? Or..is it something that stems from the DNA of the original sower of discord and chaos - the satan? Please Rate & Comment! | |||

| Ep. 51: Humble Opinion and Vax | 18 Aug 2021 | 01:07:09 | |
Ok...the conversation on vaccines is a bit out of hand. But then again, when was this COVID conversation in hand? It is important that we engage this era of wokeness, political idolatry, and truth suppression with vigilance. In this episode, we do a run through on how we got to such a place where people without vaccine shots become a terrorist threat to the general public. Please Rate & Comment! | |||
| Ep. 50: Unblurring the UFO Narrative Part II | 04 Aug 2021 | 01:10:32 | |
We continue our series on UFOs and the surrounding narratives centered on terrestrial beings. In this episode, we draw the long connection between UFOs, the new age, and demons. Maybe the string that connects them isn't as long as we think. Please Rate & Comment! | |||
| Ep. 49: Candid Convo with Gen Z | 21 Jul 2021 | 01:15:05 | |
This isn't a comment section episode, but it will bring the same raw goodness! In this episode, we are joined by some great friends of ours and we're inviting you into our conversation. These friends are some of generation Z's finest - representing high school, college, and recent college grad ages. These three siblings know the American lifestyle but currently live in Germany with their German parents (two of the most supportive people we know). We sit and discuss how the narratives of the US are reflected in European society and what life as a Gen Z'er is really like. Please Rate & Comment! | |||
| Ep. 48: Unblurring the UFO Narrative - Part 1 | 30 Jun 2021 | 01:01:25 | |
There is a growing buzz around UFOs with more and more prominent voices speaking about the phenomenon. The US government has stated it's real and that they have no idea what to make of it. Seems like a great opportunity for some people with a supernatural worldview to take the stage. In part 1 of this 2 part series we begin the discussion surrounding ETs. They may be much more than what meets the eye. Please Rate & Comment! | |||
| Ep. 47: Pre and Post Election Receipts | 16 Jun 2021 | 01:05:23 | |
Obviously, we've been critical of the current administration and many overarching narratives of today. But behind all of the debates and social media quips lies a question - what is the truth? Many things being propagated today have a lot to do with fact and fiction. From elections and riots to COVID protocol and fear mongering - at the end of the day, we're concerned with the facts of it all. Its time to take a gander back in time and see how some of the first narratives of 2021 have aged thus far. Please Rate & Comment! | |||

| Ep. 46 - Caught in the Crossfire(Comment Section) | 09 Jun 2021 | 00:55:04 | |
I'm sure many of you are familiar with the multitude of conversations on race in today's world. One thing that has always been hard to deal with - the many conversations ABOUT black people being had by non-blacks. Its just weird to listen to the many thoughts about black American issues that we disagree with, coming from non-black Americans. On this episode, we discuss a post that was made by Phil Visscher (Veggie Tales Creator) with a good friend of ours who happened to share the post. Please Rate & Comment! | |||
| Ep. 45 - Bandwagon Rioters | 02 Jun 2021 | 00:47:34 | |
From love flows sympathy and empathy. Both of these are relational virtues that build bridges toward advocacy and fellowship. Today, there is the manufactured version - bandwagon anger. There is a growing desire to join the outcry of the popular narrative of the day, all while proving to those watching that your anger will go unmatched. We sit and talk about how this growing desire to "be apart of the pain" is polluting our society with false mechanisms of sympathy. Please Rate & Comment! | |||

| Ep 41: Media Influence and Destructive Speech | 31 Mar 2021 | 01:02:30 | |
The media is supposed to give information. How are we to engage with mainstream media when the agenda is to give information, the interpretation of that information and the practical steps that should follow the interpretation of the information? Also, we discuss Kirk Franklin and his viral video of him cursing out his son. How should the Christian view cursing? Is having a specific view on cursing a little narrow sighted.? Tune in and listen to our thoughts! Please Rate & Comment! | |||

| Episode 36: Black (blurred) History - Ida B. Wells | 17 Feb 2021 | 01:01:42 | |
This week we honor Ida B. Wells. A woman of true courage and zeal and didn’t back down from a fight. What is interesting, is that some of the tactics of evil in her time seem mysteriously similar to what we’ve seen today. She believed that the only way to extinguish darkness was to drown it in light. We take a brief historical trip to what life was like when Ida B. Wells was alive. Please Rate & Comment! | |||
| Episode 35: Black (blurred) History - Harriett Tubman | 10 Feb 2021 | 00:52:49 | |

| Episode 34: Black History Month Intro | 03 Feb 2021 | 00:54:51 | |
Black History Month has happened every February since 1976. Something that began as a result of Carter G. Woodson's desire to recognize neglected aspects of American history seems to have become another weapon of identity-politics in our polarized climate. Does black history month contribute to race relations in our country? Does all black history matter? Have we adopted MLK's principle of judgement based upon character rather than skin color? We'll talk about these things and more during the entire month of February. Please Rate & Comment! | |||
| Episode 33: Critical Race Theory - Helpful or Harmful? | 27 Jan 2021 | 00:43:30 | |
Something that is certainly not foreign to our country is the conversation on race relations. Have we reached a solution with Critical Race Theory? We sit with Monique of The Center for Biblical Unity and discuss just exactly how we should view CRT. Please Rate & Comment! | |||
| Episode 32: Regressive Christianity | 20 Jan 2021 | 00:49:17 | |
There have always been those that stray from the faith and reinvent terms in order to reconstruct Christianity in a way that is more suitable. What if that reconstruction simultaneously deconstructed the very foundation of justice, love, and peace? In this episode we read an FB post from Ragamuffin TV. Apparently Christians get many things wrong. Let's see if they can set the record straight. Please Rate & Comment! | |||

| Episode 30: The Church and the Enneagram w/ Marcia Montenegro | 30 Dec 2020 | 01:20:48 | |

| Episode 27: Every Black Life Matters | 25 Nov 2020 | 01:04:07 | |
Black Lives Matter is a slogan we are all familiar with. The slogan itself seems to be at odds with the organization. If Black lives matter, then so much of what the organization promotes would not be promoted. We sit with EveryBLM founders Kevin McGary and Neil Mammen to discuss how every black life matters; a statement that can be made and backed up by a true biblical ethic. Please Rate & Comment! | |||

We share with you our commentary on our time at the G3 conference in Fort Worth, Texas. From preaching to our understanding of modesty; the church is far away today in America from a desire glorify the Lord in all things. Is it true that we must always be reforming. This weekend showed us that this is very much the case. Please Rate & Comment! | |||
| Every Pastor is Scandalous | 11 Nov 2020 | 01:18:39 | |
We are all familiar with scandals happening within the church. We are all familiar with pastors being a large part of those scandals. What if I told you that every pastor is apart of a HUGE scandal. The scandal of grace! When God calls a sinful person to be the shepherd of a church, it is an example of how scandalous God’s love for His children is. We sit with pastor Kenneth Jones of Redeemer City Church in Washington DC to listen to just how scandalous it is that he is called pastor and son of the Most-High God. Please Rate & Comment! | |||
| A Conversation with Saints & Society | 04 Nov 2020 | 01:17:56 | |
The Christian voice is one that is to be attached to the loudspeaker at all times; a light that remains set on a hill for all to see. Saints & Society is a budding light on the social media platform that professes the truth of Christianity unapologetically and we love it! Plus, they are good friends of ours so we love them! Listen to our conversation with David and Izabel Saville as we discuss the current climate of Christianity amidst our hyper-politicized culture. Please Rate & Comment! | |||
