    #78 - Acts 3 And Maui Brewing Co NITRO Coconut Porter - You Gotta EARN It

    Episode 78 - Acts 3 and @mauibrewingco NITRO coconut Porter - You Gotta EARN it! Recently I read the book The Seven Decisions by @andyandrewsauthor and there was one sentence that really stuck with me so much that I think about it multiple times a day. He said, “Yes God said that he would feed the birds, but he doesn’t put the food in their nests, they have to go out and get it!” This is powerful and so true! God is ready to bless us beyond measure, he’s already provided everything for us, it’s up to us to go out and get it. It’s up to us to earn it! You want a fit body? You gotta earn it with exercise. You want that promotion at work? You gotta earn it with experience and expertise. You want that dream vacation home in an island paradise? You gotta earn that too! Even the lame man at the temple gates that Peter healed had to earn it. He took Peter’s hand and stood up. He was only healed once he stood up. He had to EARN IT! And after my 3.5 mile run today, I EARNED this @mauibrewingco Nitro Coconut Porter. The nitro in this brew adds an incredible layer of depth to a fantastic beer. I think the subtle flavors are more pronounced due to the finer carbonation of the nitro brew. It’s definitely one I wish we had on the mainland! As we head into this next week, let’s remember that yes, God provides for the birds... he provides everything they need...but they gotta earn it. He’s ready to bless you beyond measure. You just gotta earn it! Cheers friends - BBB

    #77 - Acts 2 And Imbib Custom Brews Playa Dust IPA - People Dont Get Drunk Before 9am

    Episode 77! Acts 2 & @imbibreno Playa Dust IPA - People Don’t Get Drunk By 9am! This week we chat Acts 2 when the disciples were filled with the Holy Spirit & began speaking in multiple languages (languages they didn’t even know) & many in the crowd thought the disciples were just drunk. But leave it to Peter to call them out… V. 12-13: “They stood there amazed and perplexed, “What can this mean?” they asked each other. But others in the crowd were mocking them saying, “They’re just drunk that's all!” V 14: “Peter stepped forward and shouted to the crowd, “Some of you are saying these men are drunk! It isn't true! It's much too early for that! People don't get drunk by 9 AM!” Clearly Peter has never been to a 24 hour town like Reno or Vegas where people may indeed be drunk by 9 AM! But I digress… But the most beautiful verse is verse 21. It says, “But ANYONE who asks for mercy from the Lord shall have it and shall be saved.” Isn't that a beautiful word? Anyone. ANY one. Regardless of what language you speak, what country you're from, your religious belief, or even whether or not you're one of those few that is drunk at 9 AM… it says ANYONE who asks mercy shall have it and be saved! When I think about the religious celebrations that took place with people coming together from all different countries, speaking different languages, it reminds me that there's a similar event here in the Nevada desert and that’s Burning Man. Now If you've never been to the playa, you might not know about Playa dust so I will fill you in. Playa dust is microscopic and it clings to EVERYTHING and gets into EVERYTHING! The Playa Dust IPA from @imbibreno is a bright, “dusty” (not hazy) IPA, that is super smooth and refreshing! As we head into this next week, let’s remember that ANYONE who asks for mercy shall have it and be saved! Have a great week everyone! God bless! - BBB

  3. #74 - John 18 And Bible Bourbons And Brews Holiday Hard Cider - Religion Killed Jesus

    #74 - John 18 And Bible Bourbons And Brews Holiday Hard Cider - Religion Killed Jesus

    *WARNING: CONTROVERSIAL TOPIC!!* Episode 74 John 18 - @biblebourbonsbrews holiday hard cider - Religion Killed Jesus. Read that again. Religion killed Jesus. Now I know this is going to be a hot topic, controversial even, but it’s the simple truth. As we’ve studied Jesus’s life through the first few Gospels and now into John chapter 18, it’s clear to see who was persecuting Jesus. It’s easy to see who is trying to trap Him with the law and the word at every turn. It’s easy to see who was jealous of his popularity. it’s easy to see who was plotting against him. They say if you read a book, it’s easy to tell who the good guys and bad guys are. The Bible is no different. If we take it on the surface and read the words on the pages, the answer is clear: Religion killed Jesus. John 18:3 “The chief priests and Pharisees had given Judas a squad of soldiers and police to accompany him.” Notice here that It wasn’t society, it wasn’t the people that he preached to, it wasn’t his family, it wasn’t the disciples, it wasn’t even the Roman government! V. 38-39: What is truth?” Pilate exclaimed. Then he went out again to the people and told them, “he is not guilty of any crime. But you have a custom of asking me to release someone from prison each year at Passover. So if you want me to, I will release the king of the Jews.“ (Pilot was the Roman governor of the area at the time and he found no fault in him and wanted to release him!) If you need more proof of who was trying to kill Jesus, here he says it in his own words: “I am not an earthly king. If I were, my followers would have thought when I was arrested by the Jewish leaders.” v. 36. There it is folks. Straight from his mouth, “I was arrested by the Jewish leaders.” Religion killed Jesus. I don’t know about you, but this passage was eye-opening for me. Let me know what you think: biblebourbonsbrews@gmail.com This week we’re going off the board with our review and I’ll be reviewing my own Holiday hard cider. It’s a sweet cider with cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of black pepper and with 10% ABV!! Tune in to the podcast for our big announcements! Cheers to a great week ahead everyone! - BBB

    #71 - John 15 And Matchless Brewing Dreamsicle Gelato IPA - w/Guest Moriah Candler - He Chose YOU

    Episode 71! John 15 w/special guest @moriahcandler (my lil sis) and @matchlessbrewing Dreamsicle Gelato IPA - He Chose YOU! This week I had the opportunity to head up to Washington to visit my family. I stayed at my sisters house, and woke up to two hummingbirds fighting each other outside the kitchen window. I must've sat there and watched them for a good five minutes. Darting back-and-forth, drinking the nectar, then fighting with the other one and chasing them away. They’re like nature’s little fighter jets! Then I went a short hike through the woods near her house. It was only a mile long, but there were so many changes in the undergrowth and ground cover. The various plants, trees, birds, animals, and bugs were fascinating and reminded me how abundant our Creator is! In John 15, we learn that God not only provides for us so abundantly, ”YES! Your cup of joy will overflow!” (v.11) but we also learned that he chose us! He chose me and he chose YOU!! And you should choose @matchlessbrewing Dreamsicle IPA! The Dreamsicle IPA is an amazingly smooth IPA with a creamy mouthfeel! Made with @sofiesscoopsgelato this creamy IPA has a broad flavor profile with notes of vanilla, orange, and punchy hops. It’s sooo tasty!! Thank you so much to my little sis @moriahcandler for joining us today. IF you’ve got a Q, comment, or would like to collaborate with us, drop us a line at biblebourbonsbrews@gmail.com Have a great week everyone! God bless! 🍻🍻

  5. #70 - John 14 And Migration Brewing Straight Outta Portland - The REAL Jesus- God AND Man

    #70 - John 14 And Migration Brewing Straight Outta Portland - The REAL Jesus- God AND Man

    #70: John 14 & @migrationbrewing straight out of Portland I PA - the REAL Jesus: God AND man. In John 14 we find Jesus trying to reassure his disciples and strengthen their faith and bond before his death that he knew was coming. “do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, trust also in me. In my fathers house are many rooms, if it were not so, I would not have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me so that you may be where i am.” But even as Jesus was trying to comfort his disciples, they show how little they know him and Philip said “Just show us the father and that will be enough for us.” You can almost hear the pain in Jesus's response, “don't you know me Philip? Even after all this time I have been with you?!?” This brings up the question: if his closest disciples didn't even know him after spending so much time with him and seeing the miracles and seeing his love and compassion for his fellow humans, do WE really know him? Do we really truly know him? Or do we have a distorted religious view of him? A Christine baby born in a manger, or the lord crucified, or do we view him as some diety from another world? So far removed from us so far removed from humankind? This week we're sampling @migrationbrewing straight out of Portland IPA, it's a bright, punchy, tropical IPA with a juicy mouthfeel and comes in at 7.3% a BV, it's definitely not for the faint of heart! So as we head into this next week let’s try to get to know the true HUMAN Jesus, this week let’s try to get rid of the religious fog or the religious veil that separates us from the true God and HUMAN Jesus. Have a great week everyone. God Bless!!
