À propos de ce podcast
The noise of our culture and the world we live in can be overwhelming. With the vast amount of information that we have access to, there is confusion as to how one should perceive the world. Reggie and Brian are two guys who seek to share their journey and wisdom garnered from their faith and life experience to lend a hand in understanding the reality we live in. We, as men, are here on this earth to be leaders, husbands, fathers, sons, friends, brothers, uncles, nephews, and witnesses. R & B Talks is one place where we try to cut through the noise of the culture and the world and help give some real transparent views on important aspects of life, men, Christianity, or whatever comes up. Join us as we have real unscripted discussions about issues and life. Just 2 guys in 2 chairs talking.
