In this episode of the Bible Belt Bros Podcast, Dusty and Andrew dive into a question you don’t hear much anymore: do churches still have parsonages?

Dusty reflects on growing up in a small town where parsonage homes were just part of church life, and honestly, kind of made a lot of sense financially. Andrew brings a more personal angle, sharing what it was actually like living in a parsonage while his dad pastored a church.

From there, the conversation turns into a back-and-forth on the pros and cons. Is it a smart move for churches today, or does it create more complications than it solves? They talk through the financial side, the lifestyle tradeoffs, and the unique dynamics that come with living in a house owned by the church.

It’s part nostalgia, part practical discussion, and part “this could either be a blessing or a nightmare depending on the situation.”

In this episode of the Bible Belt Bros Podcast, Dusty and Andrew jump into a topic that apparently still breaks the internet every single year… the church talking about sex.

With prom season around the corner, their church is doing its annual youth series on sex, dating, and relationships and, as expected, the Facebook forums are absolutely losing their minds. You’ve got people saying it’s “too early,” others saying “the church shouldn’t be talking about that,” and somehow a few completely unrelated church hurt stories thrown in for good measure.

Dusty brings a unique perspective since he actually taught sex education in public schools 20 years ago to 8th graders… which raises the big question: what’s the difference?

If schools can talk about sex, should the church be silent? Or should the church be leading the conversation with a biblical perspective that encourages students to wait, honor God, and make wise decisions?

The guys break down the tension, the reactions, and why this topic always seems to stir people up… while also laughing at how quickly online conversations can go completely off the rails.

It’s honest, a little chaotic, and a reminder that maybe… just maybe… avoiding the conversation isn’t the best solution.

In this episode of the Bible Belt Bros Podcast, Dusty and Andrew dive into the idea of mob mentality and how easy it is to get swept up in what everyone else is thinking, saying, or feeling.

From biblical examples to modern-day social media, they talk about how people can go from calm to chaotic real quick when they’re part of a crowd. The Pharisees saw it firsthand with Jesus, where groupthink and pressure led people to go along with things they might not have questioned on their own.

Fast forward to today, and it’s not just crowds… it’s TikTok. Viral clips, AI-generated videos, and outrage content can spread fast, shaping opinions whether it’s true or not. And let’s be honest, a lot of it has less to do with truth and more to do with clicks, views, and making money.

The guys also call out how we all use mob mentality in our own lives sometimes… including Andrew, who may or may not have rallied the “mob” to pressure Dusty into finally editing the next podcast episode.

It’s a mix of humor, real talk, and a reminder to think for yourself, check the truth, and not just follow the loudest voice in the room.
