The Burros of Berea Podcast

In this fifth episode of Rick and Elaine Discuss the Book of Job it quickly becomes one of those conversations that invites you to slow down and sit with the text rather than rush past it. As we work through Job chapters 4 through 7, the discussion moves naturally between Scripture, lived experience, and honest wrestling with suffering. What stands out most is the care taken to distinguish between speaking about God and actually sp...

This episode of Rick and Elaine Discuss the Book of Job is one of the most emotionally weighty and theologically rich conversations in the series so far. From the opening point on, we slow down and allow Job chapter 3 to speak for itself, carefully distinguishing between narrative prose and dense Hebrew poetry, and feel the raw grief rather than rush past it. We honor the honesty of Job’s lament, showing that Scripture does not shy...

In this episode of Rick and Elaine Discuss the Book of Job, we slow down and sit in the ashes with Job. We wrestle with questions most of us try to avoid. Is God still good when everything is stripped away? What does faith look like when suffering becomes personal, prolonged, and deeply unfair? We explore Job’s silence, his refusal to curse God, and the haunting question posed by his wife, “Do you still hold fast your integrity?” a...

In this episode of The Burros of Berea, I sat down with Brad Robertson, founder of Grace Reach, whose journey from traditional church life through burnout, hyper dispensationalism, and ultimately into fulfilled eschatology is as honest as it is compelling. Brad shares how a lifelong passion for Scripture was nearly buried beneath what he calls “toxic discipleship,” a system that emphasizes spiritual performance over the finished wo...

What began as a simple...

Merry Christmas!!! After having so much fun last year, I am joined once again by my good friend and mentor Gary DeMar for our second annual Christmas movie conversation. What began as a simple holiday movie list quickly turned into a deep exploration of film history, wartime culture, hidden biblical themes in classic cinema, and several forgotten animated gems that place the Bible at the center of the story. From Jimmy Stewart’s re...

Hey Burros of Berea listeners! Have I got a treat for you today!

From there, the music she was listening too no l...
