This week, Brandon brings an example of a bishop referencing the idea of people losing their baptism through soothsaying and other similar practices. What is a Sacrament? What are they for? And can they actually be lost?

In this week's episode, Brandon and AJ discuss the relationship between good and evil. Do they both need one another? Is it really true that evil is necessary for us to recognize what is good? If not, why does God allow evil?

Continuing to work through Brandon's book on witchcraft, he and AJ talk about the origins and justifications for persecution and our desire for control.

Brandon has picked up one of his old text books on the history of witchcraft. From there, he and AJ have a discussion about the shifting way the Church has viewed the devil over the centuries and try to understand the bigger picture.

In the Gospels, Christ lays out some strong statements about those who would follow Him. Specifically, about loving Him above all else and taking up our cross. It's not a long list, so why is it so hard to live up to?

This week, AJ and Brandon talk about the importance of knowing the history of the faith. We have 2000 years of Christ's followers learning how His teachings interact with human realities, so why try to reinvent the wheel with every generation?

This week, Brandon brings to AJ the news of Andrew Tate's recent conversion from Christianity to Islam. He converted largely because he felt that Jesus gets mocked too often with no real consequence. How true is that assessment? And why does it happen?

In John's letter, he says that those who don't love don't know God. This week, AJ and Brandon discuss whether the opposite is also true. How do we reconcile what John says and the examples of atheists who certainly seem loving to us.

In this week's episode, AJ and Brandon talk about Heaven. Is it possible to lose it once we're there? And if not, can we really say we're free there?

Before Brandon and his girls headed off for the long weekend, he and AJ have a discussion about patience and the value of being still, even if it wasn't our preference. Because things can never be that simple, they then continue with a discussion about the importance of being patient and waiting for the right moment without becoming idle and sedentary.
