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!
