The Burros of Berea is a conversational podcast. We study the Bible and we talk about it. Not all of us are of the same faith and one of us doesn't actually have one. That's wonder-full! We all love one another and are going to continue to talk about thes
The Burros get back in the studio to get back to their study of the book of Daniel. We get into the beginning of chapter 7 but it doesn't take long for us to realize that our eschatological ears are going to start perking up. We hope you enjoy how we begin to break down one of the most controversial chapters in the Bible and how we're getting ready to look at this from all kinds of eschatological lenses.

Rick Welch speaks at Eric and Karen Ogea's home fellowship in Azle, Texas last Palm Sunday. He brings a view to the Sermon on the Mount, typically seen as a lesson on moral ethics, and breaks down what is actually going on. It is a covenant indictment on Old Covenant Israel, and the injection of the New Covenant explaining what it looks like. All of this was done on what Rick states is "the edge of an eschatological knife". This is a fresh look at The Sermon on the Mount through the lens of eschatology.

Christopher Beth is the Founder, Chief Storyteller, and Director of The Bucket Ministry, a nonprofit sharing God's love through the gift of safe, clean drinking water.

Rick Welch sits down and has a deeply personal conversation with Andrea Robinette. Last year, Rick had heard a story about a husband and father who had perished in a house fire trying to save two of his sons, but tragically all three died. Bill Evans, the Truckdriver Theologian, called Rick and discussed this situation and introduced him to the wife and mother of this family, Andrea Robinette. After a few emails and phone conversations the schedule for her interview with the Burros of Berea was set, Thursday, September 26th 2024. On that day, planes were being delayed and cancelled due to heavy rains that stemmed from Hurricane Helene coming up from the Gulf of America (formerly Mexico). Andrea made the decision to drive down to our studio in Western North Carolina. While driving down, Rick and Andrea had a conversation about the flooding that had already begun and determined to cancel Thursday evening's recording to be safe and to talk to one another the following day and reschedule. Little did they know that Andrea was driving into the most catastrophic event in the history of Western North Carolina. This is one of the most powerful testimonies ever recorded on our show.

In our final episode of 2024, Rick Welch sits down with Rick "Big Daddy" Carter to discuss his ATT (at this time) position in regard to his faith. After watching the world of preterism go all over the map and trying to make sense of it, Rick Welch wanted to sit down and give his best effort to explain where he's landed in regard to his understanding of the scriptures and just how important it is to him. After 4 years of meeting with the Burros of Berea Podcast, going to conferences, flying all over the country meeting other believers and hearing teachings of this eschatalogical position wrestle with the understanding of what actually happened in the Garden of Eden narrative, the Old Covenant given to Moses, and the New Covenant given by Jesus, it seemed to be a critical time to make a statement of faith for clarity. This was brought on after being invited to speak at conferences in late 2024 and next year in 2025 and how serious he takes these opportunities. After reading 2 Corinthians 11:3 and focusing on the "simplicity" that is in Christ in the midst of "complex" theological discussions, his faith came into laser focus and what it truly means to "abide in Christ". We want to thank all of our dedicated listeners for sticking around all of these years and listening to us, emailing us, and telling us about your lives and what the bible means to you. We want to wish you all a very happy New Year and hope you'll stick around and tell everyone you know about us!Much love to you all!

Rick Welch sits down with Chris Lombardi to discuss the unique structure of the Greek language used in The Revelation of Jesus Christ. Scholars today recognize that the Greek was used in a very unique way that could only be interpreted fully by the Hebraic mindset and understanding of the prophets of old.

They did in a little deeper to the lesson of prayer given by Jesus Christ to His disciples found in Luke 11 and then dive into Jesus's prayer in John 17. What we discover is that it is by the disciples "importunity" and consistent, persistent prayer that they receive the Holy Spirit.

This week's episode is a special one for us! Rick and Andy sit down with our very own Sarita Edgerton, and her husband, Mike, to discuss the incredible underdog story of how they, with the help of their campaign volunteers, pulled together and helped her win the Republican seat in the South Carolina State House of Representatives for their district.

From there, she and Mike created a strategy and began going door to door all across their district to meet voters face to face.

Rick "Big Daddy" Carter and Rick Welch sit down to hear the testimony of Ed Stevens. Being raised in a Christian household and eventually becoming a Christian himself, Mr. Stevens set about on a journey of vigorous study of the Bible. In 1975, he came to the position of fulfilled eschatology. In 1993, during one of his studies he began to see something that changed his view on the resurrection and the rapture of the church. It's a fascinating testimony of a man that has spent his entire life studying the Bible!If you'd like to support this podcast, please visit our Patreon page at: www.patreon.com/theburrosofbereaIf you'd like to learn more about us, please visit our website at: www.burrosofberea.comGo check out the sponsor of this episode at: www.carolinacases.netThanks for listening!

After Ralph's study on the argued contradictions in the Bible, Tiziana decided to invite her professor, Dr. Eric Smith to come on the show and discuss the topic.

Originally from right here in North Carolina, he received his bachelors from Mars Hill University, and his Masters of Theological Studies from Vanderbilt University, and Ph.D from Iliff and the University of Denver. His research and teaching center on a constellation of interests in the world of late antiquity, including identity formation, material culture and materialist approaches to religion, and both ancient and modern interpretations of biblical texts.

Rick, Ralph and Andy sit down in Giraffe Studio and briefly discuss the Feast of Weeks known by Christians as Pentecost. So what is the significance of that particular day in history for the Hebrews? Is there any significance to the 3,000 men that were saved that day? And when Peter quoted the prophet Joel about it being the "last days" did he really mean it? It's a fascinating look at the day when the Holy Spirit came and the birth of the Church as we know it today.

After the conclusion of our four part study titled, How Sovereign is God?, Kelly Coy had an encounter with God while reading the book of Numbers. Since that encounter, Kelly has had a radical transformation where he understands the depth and consequences of complaining about life's situations.
