The Burros of Berea is a conversational podcast. We study the Bible and we talk about it. Not all of us are of the same faith and one of us doesn't actually have one. We all love one another and are going to continue to talk about these things. The things we believe in and what we believe about what we read in the Bible. Not all of these things are true, some of them are opinion and speculation. Thank you for listening and s ...

Rick Welch sits down with Christopher Beth and Eric Ogea to discuss effective ways to minister to others in the world. Christopher Beth is the Founder, Chief Storyteller, and Director of The Bucket Ministry, a nonprofit sharing God’s love through the gift of safe, clean drinking water. A former business consultant, Christopher felt called to ministry after a 2012 mission trip to the Brazilian Amazon, where he witnessed the devastating effects of unclean water. Hearing God’s call to “help them,” he founded The Bucket Ministry in 2015, which has since expanded to over 20 countries, providing water filters and the Gospel to those in need. Christopher lives near Dallas, Texas, with his wife, Sheri. They have two grown children, Savannah and Griffin, and several grandchildren.

Rick Welch sits down and has a deeply personal conversation with Andrea Robinette. Last year, Rick had heard a story about a husband and father who had perished in a house fire trying to save two of his sons, but tragically all three died. Bill Evans, the Truckdriver Theologian, called Rick and discussed this situation and introduced him to the wife and mother of this family, Andrea Robinette. After a few emails and phone conversations the schedule for her interview with the Burros of Berea was set, Thursday, September 26th 2024. On that day, planes were being delayed and cancelled due to heavy rains that stemmed from Hurricane Helene coming up from the Gulf of America (formerly Mexico). Andrea made the decision to drive down to our studio in Western North Carolina. While driving down, Rick and Andrea had a conversation about the flooding that had already begun and determined to cancel Thursday evening's recording to be safe and to talk to one another the following day and reschedule. Little did they know that Andrea was driving into the most catastrophic event in the history of Western North Carolina. This is one of the most powerful testimonies ever recorded on our show.
