Once Lost Ministries

In this eye opening conversation, Ryan Teaford, the former nephew of Paula White, shares his personal experiences growing up around prominent ministry leaders and why he believes the church must confront what he calls "cover up culture." Together, we discuss biblical accountability, the danger of protecting reputations over truth, and why Scripture calls believers to expose the unfruitful works of darkness rather than ignore them. While exposing sin is never the goal in itself, repentance, restoration, and the Gospel of Jesus Christ must always remain at the center. A healthy church is not one without sinners, but one that refuses to hide sin and points people to the grace, forgiveness, and transforming power of Christ.#PaulaWhite #Discernment #ChurchLeadership

Biblical discernment matters. Christians are called to test the spirits, reject false teaching, contend for the faith, and guard sound doctrine. But there is also a danger many believers do not talk about enough: discernment can slowly become cynicism if we are not guarding our own hearts.In this video, we talk about the difference between biblical discernment and spiritual bitterness. Jesus confronted false teaching and hypocrisy, but He also perfectly reflected compassion, humility, mercy, and love. The goal of discernment is not to become angry at everyone around us, but to become more like Christ.Discernment without love becomes pride. Love without discernment becomes compromise.Keep your Bibles open, your discernment sharp, and your heart close to Jesus.Timestamps:0:00 — Discernment Should Push Us Closer to Christ1:00 — The Danger of a Hardened Spirit2:01 — What the Pharisees Reveal About the Heart2:51 — Externally Correct, Inwardly Cold3:36 — When Criticism Becomes Your Personality4:13 — Watch Yourself and Your Doctrine4:49 — Jesus Balanced Truth and Compassion Perfectly5:34 — When Everything Becomes Negative5:51 — Is Your Discernment Producing Bitterness?6:58 — Truth Without Losing Grace7:43 — Has Discernment Made You More Like Jesus?8:24 — Discernment Without Love Becomes PrideFor more resources, visit: https://once-lost.com/#Discernment#Christianity#BibleStudy

Taco Talks argues that the pre-tribulation rapture is a modern invention because the phrase itself never appears in Scripture. But the real question is whether the event is taught. In this response, we examine key passages like 1 Thessalonians 4, 1 Corinthians 15, Revelation 3:10, and Romans 11, asking a simple question: when Paul says believers will be "caught up" to meet the Lord in the air, should we take that literally or explain it away?#tacotalks #Rapture #BibleProphecy

For decades, Hollywood has pushed the idea that discovering alien life would shatter Christianity. But would it? In this conversation, Flynn and I examine the growing obsession with UFOs, extraterrestrials, and "higher beings," and why these ideas are increasingly intertwined with New Age spirituality, enlightenment, and ancient spiritual deception. Rather than undermining the Bible, these narratives often recycle the oldest lie in history: that mankind can find hidden truth apart from God's revealed Word. We discuss what Scripture says about deception in the last days, why Christians shouldn't be shaken by sensational claims, and why our faith rests firmly in Jesus Christ, the Creator of all things, regardless of what the world claims to discover.#Aliens #UFO #BibleTruth

In Part 2 of our conversation with Dr. Alana Arguello, we go deeper into how deceptive philosophies—often hidden in plain sight—are influencing the church today.Many believers are sincere… but sincerity doesn’t guarantee truth. Could subtle ideas be reshaping how we view God without us realizing it?We discuss how these influences enter through teaching, worship, and culture—and why discernment is more critical than ever.This isn’t just about identifying error… it’s about knowing the true God of Scripture.#BiblicalDiscernment #ChristianApologetics #SpiritualDeception---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Music: voices by Rexlambo / rexlambo License: Creative Commons — Attribution 3.0 Unported — CC BY 3.0Free Download / Stream: https://www.audiolibrary.com.co/rexla...Music promoted by Audio Library: • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rfmPUt7SfNs---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Join this channel to get access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-_nOOI5BjCXsW7BIkojmxA/join--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FAIR-USE COPYRIGHT DISCLAIMER:Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, commenting, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

In this excerpt from our conversation with Pastor Chris Quintana, we discuss Brian Brodersen handing leadership of Costa Mesa to his son, Char Brodersen, and why many longtime Calvary Chapel pastors have raised concerns. Chris explains how Char's publicly stated positions on issues that were once considered core Calvary distinctives would have likely prevented him from being recognized as a Calvary Chapel pastor in earlier generations. What does this transition reveal about the direction of Calvary Chapel today?Watch the FULL Interview here: https://www.youtube.com/live/I6xh46pzAOM?si=ekAWQqgsL3CejmQC#ChuckSmith #CalvaryChapel #ChrisQuintana

In this powerful discussion, Flynn Huseby of Once Lost Ministries sits down with Dr. Alana Arguello to uncover the spiritual realities behind yoga. Is yoga really just harmless stretching, or is there something deeper at work? We examine why yoga postures exist, their connection to mysticism, and how practices rooted in New Age, Gnosticism, and panentheism can subtly influence believers.We also address a critical question for Christians: should yoga have any place in the Church? Looking at Ephesians 5:11, Scripture calls us to expose the unfruitful works of darkness, not participate in them.Dr. Arguello brings insight from her research and personal experience to help believers discern truth from deception. This conversation is not about attacking people but about standing firmly on the truth of God’s Word and pointing others to the hope found only in Jesus Christ.Check out Dr. Alana Arguello’s channel here:https://www.youtube.com/@thereturningravenIf you’ve ever wondered whether yoga aligns with your faith, this is a conversation you cannot afford to miss.“And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them.” Ephesians 5:11The Gospel is simple. Salvation is not found in practices or disciplines but in Jesus Christ alone. Turn from sin and trust in Him today.

In this powerful discussion, Once Lost Ministries sits down with Nate Loper, to tackle one of the biggest spiritual attacks facing Christianity today: the authority of God’s Word beginning in Genesis.In this clip, Nate explains why the global flood of Noah’s day is foundational to understanding geology, judgment, sin, and ultimately the Gospel itself. From the Grand Canyon to flood geology, this conversation exposes how modern ideas about millions of years and evolution have influenced the church and caused many to question Scripture from the very beginning.But the issue goes deeper than science.It comes down to one question:“Did God really say?”This discussion moves from apologetics and biblical authority straight into the Gospel message, showing why Jesus Christ is the true Ark of salvation in a world under judgment.If Genesis cannot be trusted, why trust the rest of the Bible?Watch the FULL interview here:https://youtu.be/3NuhLl6ehz0?si=v4Sh0UI2tQtTPiIC#OnceLostMinistries#Genesis#CreationApologetics---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Join this channel to get access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-_nOOI5BjCXsW7BIkojmxA/join--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FAIR-USE COPYRIGHT DISCLAIMER:Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, commenting, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

Summer is a great opportunity to intentionally help students and families stay grounded in God’s Word. In a world full of distractions, we should create biblical habits that help us remember, obey, and grow in the truth and love of Jesus Christ each day. Abiding in Christ doesn’t happen by accident. Stay rooted in His Word this summer.#AbideInChrist #BibleTruth #JesusChrist
