There is a new country artist topping the charts and rumor has it, Taylor Swift is in her crosshairs. We've reached a point in our country where EVERY conversation will be about 'race'. How did this happen? Is our country becoming more racist? Our answer will shock you.

We're a few weeks removed form the Superbowl, the NBA Allstar game and some heinous crimes that were committed during that time line. Have you heard of the shooting at the parade? What about the shooting at Joel Osteen's church? It is odd to see which evils get air time in our country today. We will air them all out in this episode. Plus - the NBA and its commentators virtue signal when a man competes against a woman in a 3-point shooting contest.

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".

#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.

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??

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.

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!

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?

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!

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.

We pray this episode brings an encouraging reminder of the God we serve!
