    What's the Word

    Is language simply evolving, or is it actually deteriorating? In this episode, Adrian and Aaron are joined by special guest Joel Pace for the first installment of a thoughtful conversation about language, culture, and communication. From modern slang to ancient philosophy, they explore whether today’s words are becoming less meaningful or simply changing with the times. Together they discuss: Why every generation believes language is “getting worse.”The difference between language evolving and language degrading.How culture shapes the words we use.Why precise language matters for clear thinking.The connection between language, truth, and biblical communication.Historical voices—from Confucius to Seneca—that wrestled with the very same questions centuries ago.Joel brings a unique perspective with his love for history, linguistics, and etymology, helping unpack how words gain—and sometimes lose—their meaning. This is Part 1 of a conversation that sets the stage for an even deeper discussion on how language affects culture, politics, and the church.  Thanks for Listening!

    Faith and Fossils (Part 3)

    Faith and Fossils (Part 3): The Church and Creation In the final episode of the Faith and Fossils series, we shift the conversation from science and culture to the church itself. How do Christians view creation science? Is it still widely accepted among believers? And why do discussions about origins often seem absent from our churches? We explore whether creation is a divisive topic, why Genesis remains foundational to the gospel, and how Christians can approach these conversations with both conviction and humility. In This Episode How the church perceives creationism todayWhether creation science is widely accepted among ChristiansWhy Genesis matters to the gospel storyThe difference between doctrine and scientific modelsHow believers should engage faith-and-science conversationsRecommended resources for further study Thanks for Listening!

    Faith & Fossils (Part 2)

    Faith & Fossils (Part 2): Creation, Science, and the Culture Conversation Can Christians trust creation science, or are faith and science always at odds? In this follow-up to the Faith & Fossils conversation, the guys move beyond the theories of origins and into the cultural tension surrounding them. Why are creationists often viewed as “anti-science”? Is the conflict really about evidence, or is it a deeper clash of worldviews? And should creation science have a place in public education? Along the way, the conversation wrestles with faith, identity, secular humanism, education, and how Christians can think carefully about science without fear. Plus, there’s an unexpected NBA rant, flavor chemists, and Aaron’s candle obsession. You know, the important stuff. This episode doesn’t aim to settle every debate, but it does encourage thoughtful conversation around some foundational questions: What do we believe about our origins, and why does it matter?   In this episode: Why creationists are often perceived as “anti-science”Is the debate really science vs. faith, or worldview vs. worldview?Can Christians trust creation science?Should creation science be taught in schools?Why origins matter more than we often realizeA book recommendation for exploring different creation views fairlyHave thoughts or questions?

    Faith and Fossils (Part 1)

    Faith & Fossils: Can Christians Disagree About Origins? Few conversations create more tension among Christians than the question of origins. Was creation six literal days? Are the “days” of Genesis longer periods of time? Can faith and science coexist without compromising Scripture? In this episode, we begin a thoughtful conversation around Young Earth Creationism, Old Earth Creationism, and Evolutionary Creationism. Rather than arguing caricatures, we wrestle with what Scripture says, where faithful Christians disagree, and why the conversation matters. Most importantly, we ask a deeper question: What, exactly, is at stake? Whether you love theology, science, apologetics, or you simply want to better understand why Christians see Genesis differently, this conversation is for you. In this episode: Why Christians disagree about GenesisIs a literal 24-hour day a “linchpin” issue?Does an old earth challenge the doctrine of the fall?Where creation, the gospel, and biblical authority intersectWhy humility matters in difficult theological conversationsJoin the conversation: aburdenforthetimes@gmail.com Thanks for Listening!

    The Architecture of Desire

    What do generations really want? In this episode, we revisit one of the biggest unresolved conversations from our recent generational discussions and ask a deeper question: Are people across generations actually pursuing the same things, or are our desires fundamentally different? From boomers and millennials to purpose, security, sacrifice, and happiness, this conversation moves beyond stereotypes and into the deeper motivations shaping how people live, work, worship, and relate to one another. Along the way, the discussion touches on everything from job loyalty and fulfillment to generational misunderstandings, church culture, identity, and what happens when happiness becomes the ultimate goal. It’s thoughtful, honest, occasionally tense, and full of the kind of back-and-forth conversations that force you to think a little deeper about the world around you and the people in it. Also, somehow, classic movies become casualties in the opening minutes of the episode. Thanks for Listening! Follow us on Facebook and Instagram!

    Critics vs. The Crowd

    Critics vs. The Crowd… who should you trust? A movie gets trashed by critics but loved by audiences. A product has thousands of 5-star reviews… but something feels off. So what actually matters? In this episode, we dive into the tension between expert opinions and everyday voices. From movies to Amazon reviews to life decisions, we explore how review culture shapes the way we think, choose, and even trust. Are critics necessary? Have reviews become too powerful? And are we still thinking for ourselves anymore? This conversation might make you rethink the way you see ratings, recommendations, and even your own opinions. Thanks for Listening!

    The Generation Conversation (Part 3)

    We’ve spent this series breaking down generations. Now we bring it home. In this episode, we look at what happens when those generations meet inside the church. From classic church kid memories to deeper conversations about culture, faith, and shifting values, this discussion turns meaningful quickly. Each generation has been shaped by something. Those moments did more than influence culture. They shaped how we approach church, authority, authenticity, and even truth itself. So what happens when those perspectives come together? Where do we misunderstand each other? What strengths are we overlooking? And what will it actually take to disciple the next generation well? This conversation starts light and ends with something every church needs to hear. In this episode: The “if you know, you know” church kid experiencesWhat shaped each generation’s faithStrengths and blind spots across generationsWhere tension shows up in the churchA needed conversation about unity, pride, and discipleship Thanks for Listening!
