The Gospel In Black and White

Wow what a word to get today! You think much about life beyond our solar system? Are there other people out there and what do they look like, sound like, what is their culture etc? We’re all children of God created in His image so there may be more similarities than you’d think! This is the conversation Cody and Lenny dive into in today’s episode. Also, a lot about language thanks to our randomly...

It’s been a doozy of a year. We’ve also had a bit of a heavy week. But talking about the gospel openly has always helped us to find the light in troubled times. Today’s episode is more of a potluck of thoughts about Father’s day, the little good deeds we do and the effect they have, and we even discuss some thoughts a listener shared with us! So have a seat and enjoy this homebaked conversation. W...

We’ve got not one, but TWO special guests on today’s show! Welcome Paige, Lenny’s sister-in-law, and Shane, Cody’s brother-in-law, to the In Black & White Show! Both have returned from their missions somewhat recently. We get their perspective and input on the adjustment process, the good and the bad, especially in these unique times of social distancing and social turbulence. Def take a liste...

What is up, homies and rapscallions! It’s another installment of Random Word Generator and you’ll never guess what word we get. Hop on in and enjoy the show, we hope you come away feeling uplifted and laughing with us. And send us your questions!  — Twitter & Facebook: @iBWpodcast  Email Us: inblackandwhitepodcast@gmail.com   Website: www.iBWpodcast.com The post Guess What?? (S...

Hey team. It’s been a heavy year and now it’s feeling heavier than ever with the murder of George Floyd and uproar and awareness being raised across communities for justice and change. There’s a lot of voices out there and a lot (we would say largely MOST) of us are on the same team whether we realize it or not. Cody and Lenny add some of their thoughts on the current goings on and testify to the...

Happy Memorial Day! We hope everyone was able to remember their loved ones and those who have sacrificed so much for us to enjoy the lives we are privileged to live. In this episode, Lenny and Cody have a good solid chat about Memorial Day and what it means to them along with some ideas of things to do to make it a memorable day. Also, we laugh at some jokes that we thought were hilarious but they...

We are stoked to have author and good dude Aaron Hall join us for this episode of the In Black & White Show! Aaron is an author from Utah. He’s got two books out now: “Foreordained” and “My Name Is Hammerfist” (links to view and purchase those below). Today he brings his perspective on his journey to becoming an author and what God has taught him along that journey. He also points out some of...

Back again with another Random Word Generator! The gospel is a beautifully simple thing, but it’s worth looking at how life can be complicated at times because of it. Meaning, trials do not go away because of the gospel. In fact, trials gain more meaning because of the gospel. These complications in life are meant to give us experience and growth. Satan’s plan wasn’t as complicated, but it would a...

May the Fourth be with you, and something about Revenge of the Fifth. Star Wars stuff. How does that tie into the gospel? Well listen in and you’ll find out. We can draw gospel parallels all over the place to give us insights and inspiration. God is not hiding from us. He’ll help us see connections that can be edifying and useful, like how the force coooould possibly relate to the spirit. Shout ou...

Pardon the delay, technology was not on our side when we first tried to record this, but we retried and ended up with a completely different episode – here it is! We live in a time when we’re being encouraged to Stay Home for obvious reasons. However, we can miss the mark with that short statement and lose out on taking opportunities to go outside and get some fresh air, see the beauty of th...

We channel our inner old man in today’s episode by rambling on about Pittsburgh and our missions. We are just beyond stoked that Pitt is getting a temple! We discuss how we met and faith building  experiences we had on our missions that stick with us to this day. Join us for some good chats and good times.  — Twitter & Facebook: @iBWpodcast  Email Us: inblackandwhitepodcas...

First off, we are SORRY for the delay in episodes! But we are back at it with some new content and an upgraded show! Come and join us and check out the new features of the show. We hope everyone is doing well during this trying time. Have faith, things will get better. God knows us all and will help us consecrate this time for our wellbeing. Conference was awesome. Please hit us up with your thoug...

Hey friends, we rambled on about Star Wars: The Last Jedi in last weeks episode. None of you (hopefully) noticed though because we cut it all out! So here’s a half hour of us yapping about the good and bad of The Last Jedi as we prepare for the final War of the Stars to come out. The post Bonus Episode: The Last Jedi Review Pre SW Ep IX N’at appeared first on The Gospel In Black and Wh...

Hey friends! So Lenny and Cody got carried away in this episode talking about Star Wars (hence the title) but we cut it all out and moved it to a bonus episode. Aside from that, hello revelation! What a book to read and behold! We dig mostly into the first 3 chapters and discuss personal revelation and what it means to be lukewarm. Jump on in, the water is lukewarm.    ( Revelation...

It has been a minute! Thank you everyone for being patient with us as we get life organized again. Cody had a big move into a new house and we just got off with so much stuff going on around Thanksgiving as well. But we’re back at it! Enjoy some info and updates on Light the World, Riddles and of course the next installment conversation about Come Follow Me! Which conveniently is all about LIGHT.&...

A triple riddler hits everyone today – an unexpected treat for Halloween, perhaps. But aside from that, topics like working out our own salvation, the power of sacrifice, and becoming new in Christ are tackled in today’s Come Follow Me episode. Also, Lenny and Cody discuss the importance of people being open to change and becoming new in Christ constantly. Hit us up with your thoughts on thi...

Just poking a little fun at the church leadership giving us a heads up that next conference is gonna be gnarly. What a great round of conference! Join Cody and Lenny today to get some highlights from conference – more of a focus on the doctrines/messages that were taught. You got the the other news, changes and updates in email or on social media probs. We came for doctrine and we were edifi...

Here we’ve got another installment of the Random Word Generator episode! But wait! How do you still do the RWG if you are studying Come Follow Me every week?!? Have no fear! We’ll do both! Yeah, we’re just going through all of Ephesians and tying everything we learned to the random word we generated. So it’s a little trickier than before but likening is very flexible! Hope you enjoy the episode. Y...

Join us today for just a super episode! Diving into the entire book of Galatians – and Paul’s got a lot to say. How does God make us free? How do we know policies or doctrines are true? And how are the body and spirit aligned instead of pitted against each other? Lots of chatting. Hope ya dig.  ( All of Galatians, yo ) — Twitter & Facebook: @iBWpodcast Email Us: inblackandwhit...

This week in the Come Follow Me was kind of a doozy! Plenty of ideas and doctrines to talk about and get through all them just barely. God loves when we give cheerfully. We should examine ourselves and repent regularly. How can we know true prophets from false ones? (look up President Nelson’s BYU devotional from this week for some quality gold on that). And of course, we don’t have all the answer...

Today, we bring you the first episode of Season 3 where we begin our study of Come Follow Me right where everyone is at! We hope this new structure aids you guys in your studies or helps you kick them off – especially in those off weeks where we don’t meet for Sunday School to discuss what we’ve learned. Also, we retire the old headscratcher for a new fun starter chat… listen in to fin...

Since our reboot back in January, we’ve busted out 34 episodes this year! We are moving on to Season 3 to change and add some more relevant gospel content to your lives by following the Come Follow Me lessons for Sunday School. You follow? We hope that these forthcoming episodes can supplement your Come Follow Me study each week or even kickstart it – especially on the off weeks where...

Friends, Romans, and Countryman! We’ve migrated our old site to a new domain name: iBWpodcast.com! We are excited to have a little more consistency between our Social Media handles and our website. One day the email will get there, but it is not this day (curse you, current owner of iBWpodcast@gmail.com ! But actually don’t cuz you’re maybe great). Yet another episode arrives of the ol Random Word...

Man, there just seems to be a lot of yellin’ and hatin’ going around the world these days, from politics to religion to whatever. What can we do to improve the climate and the attitude in our sphere of influence? Cody and Lenny jump into a conversation with some radical thoughts (bruh) and ideas of things we can do to best exemplify Christ and his teachings to make the world a better place. &#8212...

This is our last episode in our mini Random Word Generator series of recompense for our past sins of missing two weeks of episodes in a row. Whew. By the power of randomization on the interwebs, we pull the word “Twilight” in today’s episode. This is one of the more unique words we’ve ever gotten but it proved to be a fruitful and fun conversation. Stay tuned through the end to hear how we connect...
