#161 Is Michael Heiser a Heretic? (Responding to Michael Heiser Criticism) Part II07 Sep 202401:24:55

Send us a text

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.
The Original Video rejects Heiser's teaching as "polytheistic" and " fringe". It doesn't stop there. Heiser is passively attacked and his witness to Christ is in question. We do this episode out fo love for those who posted the video and love for the late Dr. Hesier. We will all discuss our mishaps regarding this aspect of biblical theology in glory. Until then, lets debate...

#159 Narrative Breakers Part II: He Moved to Florida and Found Out He Was Wrong!29 Aug 202401:03:58

Send us a text

We sit with the eldest brother of our father, Arthur Smith (Uncle Bubba). He shares with us the early seeds of the Christian faith planted by his parents while growing up in the city of Baltimore. As a former wild boy himself, he tells how the value system of even criminals has shifted in such a way towards becoming a community pariah; promoting self-destruction and lack of respect for elders. You'll be shocked to hear his response as a member of only 1 of 2 black families to move into an all-Jewish neighborhood in Baltimore City. This episode will break narratives given to us by our screens.

In this for-patrons-only special video, Brandon addresses the growing complacent nature of a milk-fed church lacking true spiritual discernment. No, lacking discernment doesn't mean that you will vote for Trump. However, it does mean that you have an ability to see through the lies that typically pit brothers and sisters against one another.

#155 The (almost) Assassination of President Donald Trump18 Jul 202401:09:51

Send us a text

Ladies and Gentlemen, the inevitable took place. The rhetoric of the past 8 years has borne fruit. In this episode, we delve into a critical moment in recent political history—the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump. Exploring the implications of this event, we analyze the intersection of faith and conservative politics. How does such a harrowing event challenge us to reflect on our values as Christians and conservatives?

Join us as we discuss the role of faith in shaping political ideologies and responses to adversity. We explore the call for deeper introspection within the conservative community, urging a growth in Christian faith as a cornerstone of moral and political compasses. Through insightful commentary and guest perspectives, we examine the lessons to be learned from moments of crisis and the importance of unity in faith-based values.

#152 Jesus is a Man - A Father's Day Sermon21 Jun 202400:43:59

Send us a text

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.

Send us a text

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?

Send us a text

We're joined for the second time by our father, Dale for the first of a 3-part series that shows how the narrative surrounding black men in the country is meant to attack them rather than reveal the multifaceted reality of being a black American. How did a boy from Baltimore with auto-democratic syndrome become a conservative who espouses what would be called hateful, xenophobic and un-Christlike rhetoric? If you think our podcast is edgy...then listen to the tree from whence the two apples have fallen.

The news and gossip around Sean "Puff Daddy" Combs is not something that Christians ought to be excited to partake in. Rather, we should be mourning the current status of this generation. There are many celebs who are deified and propped up by professing Christians who have no idea how the dark the world really is. What happens in the dark will come to light. The media cycle around Diddy is a display of God's sovereignty and it would serve us well to never forget that. Join us as we dive into the allegations around the Hip Hop mogul and why this should be your wake up call!

Our home town was hit hard with a tragic and terrifying incident on the key bridge. Is there more than what meets the eye there? Also, the Sean Combs aka Puff Daddy aka P.

#139 The Black Church: Community or Cult?15 Feb 202401:46:21

Send us a text

How would you define the 'Black Church'. Is there such a thing, biblically? The title has been used over and over throughout history and we are realizing just how divisive it is. The 'Black Church' is to be distinguished from Christians who are black. The black church is a politicized and secularized segment of black Americans who see Christian faith merely as a cultural aspect of their greater identity - blackness.  In this  church, Jesus is not Lord but a mascot of the culture and following after Him is not a priority. We look at the many diverging faith leaders today within the 'black church' and connect their apostacy with the natural trajectory of the historical black church. If Brandon could tell the story, the 'black church' is a synagogue of Satan.

In this episode we delve into the intricate relationship between music and cultural de-evolution within the black community. Is it time we stop using slavery as a reason for the gratuitous violence and grotesque promiscuity plaguing generations of black Americans? Are these aspects of hip hop culture worthy of the celebration we give it? We dive deep into song lyrics to trace the coinciding affect the most popular songs of any given decade had on our current state of "black culture".

#136 Can We Know How Dark the World Really Is? Part II18 Jan 202401:07:39

Send us a text

#9eleven, #QAnon, #pizzagate, #JFK...all of these things have been classified as theory and filed away in the insane claims department. How do Christians interpret this reality? As the pillar and buttress of truth, does the Church join the populace and stick our heads in the sand? Should we hop on the latest conspiracy fad without asking any questions? The answer is no to both. We look into some dark realities about our world that should point you to the reality of a savior, rather than the nearest message board on reddit. The darkness has see a great light. It is time we have an accurate take on what that darkness actually is.

Happy New Year! We now know that Christmas is the birth of the Light of the world and the beginning of the death of darkness. In order for our reorientation toward Christmas to be complete, we need to have somewhat of a more accurate grasp on the darkness that will be extinguished. Our modernized thinking has lead of to believe that ancient darkness remained in antiquity and does not plague us today. You are sadly mistaken. Jesus said that we will have trouble in this world. As we go through a list of how dark the world truly is, we can take heart - Jesus has overcome the world!

Do you have hope this Christmas? Has the news stolen joy from you? We are enamored with murders, hatred, divisiveness, sexual immorality, children being targeted, education being diminished, and far more beneath the surface than we could type here! All of this comes on top of the morale-suffocating era of Covid that we are all still recovering from. And if you're dealing with your own trials on top of all of that...suffice it to say, it is hard to have hope this Christmas.
Hopefully, after listening to this episode, you will know that to be false!
Merry Christmas.

It has been a while since the BLMN riots tore through urban communities. The Twitter (X) feuding has moved to topics such as the Israel/Palestine war and the internet is still crazy! We sit with Virgil Walker to slow down and revisit the loud rhetoric that was taking place when the evangelical church was distancing itself from biblical fidelity and inching her way toward the cultural in hopes of being well received. We discuss the needed headship, unity, and a return to the sufficiency of Scripture.

#130 This Christian Book Has Some Red Flags You Should Really Know About02 Nov 202301:20:22

Send us a text

Are you being your new 'true' self? Have you kissed your old 'false' self goodbye? Have you ever asked where these terms come from??

We bring back our good friend and original professional party pooper, Marcia Montenegro to discuss a Christian book that has been around for some time called, Emotionally Healthy Spirituality by Peter Scazzero. This book shares attributes with many other Christian books and it's time we begin to look closer at what books are teaching and from where they get these teachings. Who better to look into the magnifying glass with than the former New Ager herself??

#129 This Christian is Infiltrating the Darkness as an Educator26 Oct 202301:01:11

Send us a text

Are you a Christian in isolation at your work? Are you a doctor? A teacher? a Pastor amidst people who seem to hate Jesus and all that He loves? How do you stand firm in your faith when you feel so outnumbered, overwhelmed and downcast? 
We are joined by a supporter of the podcast and educator in the school system (referred to as 'Delos') who is connected to a high-profile school in the country. He embodies what it means to be "wise as serpents, yet innocent as doves" as he maneuvers in a world of debased thinking and degraded morality. On the front lines of the downfall of education in America, he sees that the solution won't be reciting the pledge of allegiance in schools...it's prayer.

#128 Is this White Couple Racist for Adopting Black Children?19 Oct 202301:09:25

Send us a text

We received the most humbling letter a few months ago from a father and long time listener of Black and Burred who has, along with his wife, adopted black siblings. Here's the problem: they are a white Californian couple living amidst this dystopian, debased generation. Having received insults and slanderous claims of racism, the father reached out to us to ask for help in learning black culture. We won't give it to him. Listen to learn why!

#127 School Shootings You'll Never Hear About, War and Christian Platitudes12 Oct 202301:03:07

Send us a text

Obviously, the world has changed since we last sat down with Israel declaring war. How Should Christians think about this? Also, there are some college shootings that you probably haven't heard about and there are some frustrating reasons why. Lastly, Brandon walks us through an encounter he had with some college students from the SDA church who had 'nice phrases' for encouraging the people of Silver Spring, Maryland. How do you feel about Christian sayings that have become more cultural than accurate?

#126 Another Look Behind the Blurred Enneagram Curtain28 Sep 202300:53:09

Send us a text

We're joined by another CIA (Cross-examined Inspector Academy) classmate of Brandon's named Alexa Cramer who is a true mama bear. Not only does she contribute to the Mama Bear Apologetics blog, but she is also an apologist who defends the faith by exposing the subtle lies that draw us away from the truth through trickery. You've heard on our previous episodes with Marcia Montenegro why Christians ought to (at the very least) do their own research and pause with the enneagram craziness. Today, Alexa shares with us why Christians ought to stop altogether! No one likes being tricked!

#125 Is Science Dying at the Hands of Transgenderism?14 Sep 202300:58:03

Send us a text

We're joined by Dr. Brittany LaBeouf who shares her expertise as a PhD in  Exercise Physiology and how it contradicts the growing trend of transgenderism. She is the host of the Heaven and Health podcast and has a deep desire to see modern women embraced with the loving truth of God's beautiful creation of womanhood - something that transgenderism explicitly contradicts. We dive into the endangered state of science, Christians in secular spaces, and the historical origins of the scientists that promulgated the harmful data we call "transgender ideology" today;  data that was not rooted in "science" to begin with.

How do Asian Americans feel when it comes to the pervasive topics on race in the country? As the odd men/women out, a dear brother sits with us to discuss the disappointment around many Christians' inability to think well on these topics and where that has led us. Rather than Critical Theory being preached from the pulpit, Christians need to get back to critical thinking! Tell us: do Asian Americans get a say in how we build unity in America?

#119 Are We Experiencing More Adversity at the Hands of Diversity Training?20 Jul 202300:52:12

We finally get to sit and chat with Dr. Carol Swain about what to expect in a post - affirmative action world. A woman who escaped abject poverty to become a holder of 5 degrees is probably someone who knows a thing or two about success and how to achieve it. We discuss the lies behind diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), the supreme court decision and why those who dwell on race the most end up being the real racists.  Be on the lookout for her new book!

We know what you're thinking. Just strap in and sit tight while we give some commentary on all of the dormant racism this Supreme Court ruling has drawn out. Also, Brandon has a brief encounter with a cult in the mall, and we don't know if you've heard...but...apparently all white people are taught to be demons. Let us know what you think!

#117 Pride Month, The Flood and Why Love is Wrath22 Jun 202300:53:53

Send us a text

Has the Church been keeping track of how far away we move from the scriptures each generation? June has been deemed pride month and the church is on the frontlines of "the being nice" war. Has the bride of Christ abdicated her role as pillar and buttress of truth? Also, many have been suggesting that homosexuality has nothing to do with Genesis and the Flood. What if we disagreed?? It's actually more obvious than you know.

#116 How to Rely on God During and After a School Shooting w/ Macy McCombs24 May 202300:56:31

Send us a text

We're joined by a beloved sister in the faith, co-laborer in Silver Spring and now Author of Letters to Jaelynn: A True Story of Friendship, Loss and Healing to discuss the tragedy that shook southern Maryland when a shooting took place at Great Mills High school leaving two dead and one injured. Macy, a student at the school during the tragedy and a very close friend to one of the victims, shares her story of grief, loss, sorrow and healing as she recounts God's comfort falling on in the darkest moments. She also sheds light on the not-so-attractive parts of the story that the media storm is gone: the emotional fallout that every connected student faces.

#115 COMMENT SECTION: Discussing Guns and Transgenderism with a Progressive Pastor17 May 202301:16:55

Send us a text

Our cousin and Missouri Pastor, Tom Baynham finally joins Black and Blurred to "offer us a progressive perspective" on guns and transgenderism. We're always willing to bring important conversations into the trenches so that the truth would shine. That is our goal. Either one of us is wrong or we're both wrong. The one impossibility is for both of us to be right. Sit and listen as we discuss two big issues that will inevitably bring out the presuppositions of our faiths.

#114 WANTED: Good Men...(who are dangerous)03 May 202300:54:25

Send us a text

We felt that it was necessary for us to give a little mid evening slap in the face for us to keep our eyes open. The next major national issue is on the cusp of its typical divisive strategy and in a country where the Church seems more reactive than proactive - we felt it necessary to get ahead of the curve. Whatever the next issue is, the tactics of the enemy is to eliminate from our homes, our communities, and our churches men. I don't just mean men in biology...but men whose identity is founded on the ultimate man - Jesus Christ. Men whose convictions are lead them toward protection and sacrifice; men who would find it no less than an honor to die beside their King. These are dangerous men...who are good. It is this class of manhood that is ultimately under attack. Even though we aren't at each other's throats per se over a specific issue right now...it is coming. The church will need men who are willing to wage war against the darkness through leadership, faithful preaching and daily dying. This is what the enemy hates.
