What do you do when your beliefs collide with your ballot?

Would Jesus Vote? And if so, who would he vote for?

Recently Josh Howerton of LakepointeChurch gave a sermon titled "How To Vote Like Jesus". We use a couple of clips from that as a springboard into this incredible conversation. We are not on the same page in this one.

Our exploration veers into the moral complexities of voting and Christian responsibility in political engagement. We wrestle with the idea of rebellion against God by not voting, dissect the notion of third-party futility, and debate the ethics of supporting a system that may contradict Christian values.

With humor and sincerity, we reflect on America’s perception as a Christian nation and the divisive nature of current political discourse. As we raise our glasses in fellowship, we invite you into our community, where shared beliefs and joy in connection shine through every earnest exchange. We cannot cover all of the bases so let us know where you stand with all of this!

Art and Brenda Greco join us for a conversation that's both engaging and insightful, giving us a glimpse into their journey through faith, culture, and marriage. We dive into the joys and sometimes hilarious challenges of marriage decision-making dynamics, where Brenda’s calming influence often keeps Art's bold personality in check.

We tackle the challenges of church transitions and the wisdom that comes with age, particularly in navigating interim pastoral roles amidst staff dysfunction. The importance of emotional intelligence and curiosity is underscored, as is the humorous impact of sports team performances on our emotions.

Through personal anecdotes, we explore how different decision-making styles in marriage can lead to both harmony and chaos, highlighting the balance between impulsiveness and careful deliberation.

This episode takes a heartfelt turn as we discuss the unique dynamics of being a pastor's spouse, emphasizing mutual respect and open communication, especially when facing personal struggles like depression and anxiety. Art and Brenda offer candid reflections on supporting partners in church leadership without succumbing to traditional gender roles. We wrap things up by expressing our gratitude to the Grecos for their wisdom and camaraderie, celebrating the enriching fellowship shared over a beer. Come laugh, learn, and feel the love with us in this heartwarming episode of Bros Bibles and Beer.

Surprising new data is in on whether GenZ men or women are leaving the church. We dig into and get all robust with this conversation.

Are young men feeling isolated, unsupported, and under constant attack in today's culture?

When they turn to the church for guidance, they often find little support, leading many to seek controversial internet figures instead. Some feel masculinity has been attacked and stripped away in the social media age, yet it remains prominent in the real world. Amidst discussions on toxic masculinity, there's a perceived lack of initiatives nurturing positive masculine growth and responsibility among young men.

This may be contributing to Gen Z Christian males becoming more religious than their female peers, who are increasingly religiously unaffiliated, and disillusioned potentially by abuse revelations like #MeToo and #ChurchToo.

For the first time ever, young men are outpacing young women when it comes to church affiliation and religious expression. • Young men are now more religious than young women, contradicting a long-held narrative.

• Young men feeling unsupported, isolated, and under constant attack, turning to controversial internet figures for guidance.

• Masculinity has been attacked and stripped away in the social media age, leading to a lack of personal connection and reality.

• Gen Z women increasingly religiously unaffiliated, disillusioned by #MeToo, #ChurchToo abuse revelations.

• Young women leaving churches due to pastors' sexual misconduct and abuse.

• Young men value traditional family life more than young women, contrasting with societal narratives promoting career success.

• Complementarian churches reduce women's visibility, driving them away yet liberal denominations ordaining women decline steeply.

• Conservative and liberal churches face challenges regarding growth and retention, with liberal churches struggling due to a lack of clear boundaries.
