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. Support the showPlease Rate & Comment!Hosts: Brandon and Daren SmithWebsite: www.blackandblurred.comPatreon: www.patreon.com/blackandblurredDonate: www.givesendgo/BBpodcastYouTube: Black and Blurred PodcastIG: @BlackandBlurredPodcastTwitter: @Blurred_Podcast

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??Check out Marcia's Website: Christian Answers New AgeSupport the showPlease Rate & Comment!Hosts: Brandon and Daren SmithWebsite: www.blackandblurred.comPatreon: www.patreon.com/blackandblurredDonate: www.givesendgo/BBpodcastYouTube: Black and Blurred PodcastIG: @BlackandBlurredPodcastTwitter: @Blurred_Podcast

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. Try Magic Mind!

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!Try Magic Mind!

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.

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!

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.

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.

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!Visit Dr. Swains site:Carol Swain Bio - https://bethepeoplenews.com/about/Be the People Website - https://bethepeoplenews.com/Support the showPlease Rate & Comment!Hosts: Brandon and Daren SmithWebsite: www.blackandblurred.comPatreon: www.patreon.com/blackandblurredDonate: www.givesendgo/BBpodcastYouTube: Black and Blurred PodcastIG: @BlackandBlurredPodcastTwitter: @Blurred_Podcast

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.

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. Intro Song - FLAME ft. Phil JOutro Song - Bryson Gray ft.

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.

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.

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.
