Two Beers and a Bible Podcast | Honest Christian Conversations on Faith, Politics, Trading, & Truth

Can Protestant Christians and Spiritual Christians Agree on the Gospel?

In this episode of Two Beers and a Bible, hosts Michael and Fred celebrate reaching 15k subscribers, taste and rate a Wisconsin-made NA beer called “Flavor” (both scoring it 1.0/5), and welcome guest Amanda Douglas (‪@Amanda_Douglas1‬ [https://www.youtube.com/@Amanda_Douglas1] ) to discuss her evolving faith journey from mainstream Christianity to a spiritual type of Messianic Judaism and continued truth-seeking. Amanda emphasizes questioning as the path to objective truth, reading Scripture through a Hebraic context, and letting Torah define “truth,” arguing Messiah did not abolish Torah and that love must motivate obedience. The conversation covers names for God and Messiah (Jesus vs. Yeshua/Yahusha), concerns about perceived “Old Testament” violence, distinctions between covenant instructions and Levitical/temple-specific laws, the Ark of the Covenant, lunar calendar Sabbath/new moon practices, Israel identity and grafting in, and the relationship between belief, works, and sanctification.00:00 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_J6I57kCBgY] Truth Through Questioning00:53 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_J6I57kCBgY&t=53s] Welcome and Milestone01:42 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_J6I57kCBgY&t=102s] Beer Tasting Chaos04:09 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_J6I57kCBgY&t=249s] Meet Amanda Douglas06:27 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_J6I57kCBgY&t=387s] Amanda Faith Journey13:55 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_J6I57kCBgY&t=835s] Torah as Truth18:24 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_J6I57kCBgY&t=1104s] Jesus vs Yeshua Names26:11 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_J6I57kCBgY&t=1571s] Old Testament God30:39 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_J6I57kCBgY&t=1839s] Torah Context and Courts37:20 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_J6I57kCBgY&t=2240s] Ark and Priesthood Shift40:01 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_J6I57kCBgY&t=2401s] Lunar Sabbath Calendar48:08 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_J6I57kCBgY&t=2888s] Love Over Legalism48:56 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_J6I57kCBgY&t=2936s] Sabbath And Real Life50:21 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_J6I57kCBgY&t=3021s] Grafted Into Israel58:47 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_J6I57kCBgY&t=3527s] Faith Works And Truth01:04:49 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_J6I57kCBgY&t=3889s] Belief Versus Works Debate01:12:38 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_J6I57kCBgY&t=4358s] Kindness Righteousness And Judgment01:15:48 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_J6I57kCBgY&t=4548s] Daily Discipline And Distractions01:21:48 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_J6I57kCBgY&t=4908s] Expectations And Temptations01:24:35 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_J6I57kCBgY&t=5075s] Beer Ratings And Wrap Up01:27:41 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_J6I57kCBgY&t=5261s] Where To Find Amanda01:29:43 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_J6I57kCBgY&t=5383s] Final Reflections And Goodbye#objectivetruth [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/objectivetruth] #torah [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/torah] #messianicjudaism [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/messianicjudaism] #faithpodcast [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/faithpodcast] #biblestudy [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/biblestudy]

Why Does Evil Exist if God is Real?

Mike and Fred return to Two Beers and a Bible to discuss faith, current events, and asking “why” through a Christian lens while sipping Coors Edge non-alcoholic beer. They compare Coors Edge to Peroni and other NA beers, talk about temptation, and Fred shares being about 120 days alcohol-free after nearly cracking at a tournament. The conversation turns to evil and suffering, including a Houston murder-suicide involving children, and why humans’ innate sense of right and wrong suggests objective morality and points to God, citing C.S. Lewis. They debate free will, Satan’s influence, the death penalty, political polarization, and reflect on grace versus works, confession, and spiritual growth, ending with a 4.8/5 rating for Coors Edge and encouragement to share faith journeys.#FaithAndReason [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/faithandreason] #Morality [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/morality] #NonAlcoholicBeer [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/nonalcoholicbeer] #GoodAndEvil [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/goodandevil] #christianpodcast [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/christianpodcast] 00:00 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo] Sobriety and Faith00:52 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo&t=52s] Show Welcome and Mission03:01 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo&t=181s] Non Alcoholic Beer Intro04:03 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo&t=243s] Coors Edge Taste Test05:48 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo&t=348s] NA Beer Evolution08:29 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo&t=509s] Temptation and Staying Sober11:54 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo&t=714s] Netflix Reality Shows18:48 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo&t=1128s] God Evil and Tragedy22:29 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo&t=1349s] Morality as Proof of God30:03 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo&t=1803s] Death Penalty Debate32:24 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo&t=1944s] Bible Translation Guests38:53 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo&t=2333s] Libertarianism and Borders44:28 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo&t=2668s] Culture Shock Stories45:10 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo&t=2710s] Diversity Paradox Debate46:13 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo&t=2773s] Censorship on TikTok47:35 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo&t=2855s] Crawfish Plans and Food Talk49:12 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo&t=2952s] Bathroom Break and Grim Reaper51:39 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo&t=3099s] Baseball Updates and Guest Idea53:42 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo&t=3222s] Politics and Media Distrust57:45 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo&t=3465s] Cancel Culture and Libertarianism01:02:46 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo&t=3766s] Jesus Grace and Authentic Faith01:12:20 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo&t=4340s] Podcast Journey and Call to Share01:15:54 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo&t=4554s] AI Music and Tech Talk01:23:49 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPUdw_sE6Qo&t=5029s] Near Beer Rating and Wrap Up🎙️ Welcome to Two Beers and a Bible Podcast!Honest conversations.

Ayahuasca, Fasting & Finding Jesus (ft. Kash Fadaie)

In this episode of Two Beers in a Bible, the hosts welcome in-studio guest Kash Fadaie ( @FadaieInsurance  [https://studio.youtube.com/channel/UCivuhCUEcFnHbm0HvGW6uHw] ) and discuss everyday life in The Woodlands, including a Market Street parking incident, luxury cars vs reliable daily drivers, and Kash’s Harley. They taste and rate a non-alcoholic beer while talking about the social role of drinking, the harms of alcohol, and why NA options are improving. The conversation shifts to spirituality: reducing ego, discerning the “fallen nature” vs “Christ self,” meditation, fasting, fear, and seeking a direct experience of God through the “red letters” of Jesus. Kash describes his esoteric practices, views on consciousness, and an ayahuasca experience that helped heal childhood trauma, plus debate about whether salvation is exclusively through Jesus and how free will and evil serve spiritual growth.00:00 Unconditional Love And Ego Death00:50 Podcast Intro And Warm Beer Errand01:19 Parking Lot Rage And BMW Stereotypes02:41 Car Tech Talk And Toyota Reliability04:36 Guest Arrives Kash Joins In06:48 Less Materialism More God09:25 Non Alcoholic Beer Tasting10:23 Quitting Alcohol Feeling Better13:29 Vices Social Bonding And Moderation16:14 Natural Highs Hotworks And Placebo18:01 Profiting From Alcohol Moral Dilemma24:29 Levels Of Consciousness And Practices28:38 Tuning Into Divine Love29:37 Fasting And Daily Discipline30:50 Equanimity Over Judgment33:58 Red Letters And Inner Kingdom37:04 Fasting As A Spiritual Tool40:20 Meditation Direction And Bandwidth41:51 Psychedelics And Purification49:33 Ayahuasca Healing Story53:27 Simulation Theory And The Deceiver57:05 Jesus Salvation And Politics59:41 Viral Clip And Community Secrets01:02:03 Sexual Energy And Next Episode01:04:12 Wrap Up And Farewell#EgoDeath #GodConsciousness #SpiritualAwakening #Fasting #JesusFirst
