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.

What is the difference between testimony and worship? Well, AJ and Brandon try to get to the bottom of it and understand the proper role for each in our journey to Christ.

Having listened to some of the debates in Peoria about bathrooms and school curriculum, Brandon brings his frustration with the way science is becoming political so that he and AJ can wrestle with it together.

In their Bibles, Brandon has been reading through the Minor Prophets and AJ has been reading the Historical Books. As they've been reading, they both noticed that sin always leads to separation and holiness always leads to the people being gathered together. Why is that? And how do we interpret that in our own experiences of isolation and friendship?

This week, AJ and Brandon talk about the idea of idolatry and what it would mean to serve Mammon, which we tend to translate as money. How is it possible to "serve" money? How do we avoid it, even as we try to build a business?

This week, AJ and Brandon are joined by Walther, because, if you're going to discuss friendship, you need to have a friend to discuss it with. Making friends isn't always easy, but it's definitely important.
