Andy Lamb and Jonny Hanson unpack a major topic of 'What is Sin?' and how does it manifest in our lives. The fellas start out with Proverbs 14:21 'It is a sin to despise one’s neighbor, but blessed is the one who is kind to the needy.' The guys then unpack the sin in their lives that they have struggled with, have conquered and some that maybe others struggle with by looking at what the bible says about sin verse what the world says about sin. This, as always, is a judgement free episode. Throughout the dialogue, the guys break down not just the question 'what is sin?'; but the creeping way that it consumes the individual involved.Check out FULL EPISODES and subscribe to Untrained Philosophical Discussionists & Jonny Hanson's Lofty Thoughts on Spotify, Apple, YouTube, Instagram and TikTok.

In this episode, Jonny Hanson and Andy Lamb talk about readiness and restraint: how to become battle ready as a Christian without becoming the wrong kind of man. We unpack why social media trains us to be reactionary, how “meekness” is actually bridled strength, and how to discern which hills are worth dying on.

We are surrounded by outrage, addiction, and constant distraction, and a lot of us feel like life is out of balance. In this episode, Jonny Hanson and Andy Lamb unpack the difference between what culture calls “peace” and what the Bible calls a sound mind.

Revival has broken out at Southeastern University (SEU) in Lakeland, Florida, where multi-day worship and repentance services have led the school to pause classes. Here's our reaction.

We’re doing something different today: reacting to your comments, emails, and a few spicy quotes. We talk about reverence for God (Father vs “dad”), why people question celebrity faith, and the debate around Christian artists monetizing merch and VIP experiences. We also break down a viral clip about weed and following Jesus, plus how to think biblically about being sober-minded without sliding into legalism.

This is not a highlight reel. It’s a real conversation about what addiction does to your body, your relationships, your identity, and your hope. Jonny shares how people along the way helped him see the truth, how relapse pulled him back under, and how one late-night phone call to a pastor became the turning point that led to rehab, surrender, and a brand new life.

UPD Podcast's own Andy Lamb shares his unfiltered story: growing up in church but feeling abandoned, chasing the party life, addiction, arrests, cocaine, church hurt, marriage chaos, and the moment he finally said, “I’m an addict. I don’t know what to do.” This isn’t a highlight reel. It’s a real testimony about relapse, rock bottom, and what changed when Jesus met him in the mess.
