the basement

Special guests Jim and Therese Wall sit down with Pastor Los and Wayne and discuss the importance and emphasis of being part of a local body. Is it biblical to be a Christian and NOT be part of a local body? What does the bible say the church is? What does the bible say are responsibilities of each saint? Can we do these outside of a local body? This is a must watch from The Basement...where THEOLOGY meets the THOUGHTS of LIFE!

In this episode Pastor Los & Wayne break down what trusting in God or the lack of trusting in God looks like in our lives. What do the Scriptures tell us about trusting in God? What do we sinfully place our trust in and who do we make the mistake of trusting?? How does politics, finances and success play into our trust or lack of trust in God?? What are some problems that arise when we put our trust in someone/something else? So much to cover in The Basement!

Special guest Damon Richardson of Urban Logia Ministries joins Wayne and Pastor Los for an episode filled with tough topics for the church folk! Discussing why young people don't wanna go to church, the decline in church attendance, the problems the Church may face in upcoming years and so much...this is another gem from The Basement, where theology meets the thoughts of life!

Pastor Los, Wayne and Tim sit down and discuss another sola of the Protestant Reformation, Sola Scriptura. Dealing with whether the Bible confirms the truth behind this doctrine, the authority of the Bible, traditions of man, how to live according to the Scriptures in a pluralistic society full of social ills and so much more! This is another one for the books

It's Ladies Night again in The Basement! Wayne sits down with special guests Lynette, Bryce & Krystal and discusses the difficulties that arise when Christians try to navigate within the culture they live in. Being "in the world, but not of it" isn't an easy task, add the mission of reaching the lost and building the Kingdom of Christ and things can start to look gray. What's "too worldly"? What's "Christ-like" in modern times? Should Christians unite with the world in fighting injustice? All this and so much more in the place where THEOLOGY MEETS THE THOUGHTS OF LIFE"!

Wayne & Pastor Los sit down with Stract and first time guest Josh Guider to discuss specific issues that have been and continue to divide the Body of Christ. From breaking down what division looks like to emphasizing why we need more unity to discussing biblical ways of solving church conflict, and even speaking on how all of this connects to George Floyd, the protesting, racism and Black Lives Matter...this is a must-see "Fellas Night" episode!

Pastor Stan Morton joins Pastor Los and Wayne in The Basement for a very special episode. This time they tackle the George Floyd situation...the murder, the protests and riots, the violence and chaos that followed, police brutality, racism, "white guilt", sin, the public reactions to all of this and how the Church should be responding in the midst of the injustice and craziness! Don't wanna miss this one!

Pastor Los, Wayne and Tim Bertolet sit down and discuss another Sola of The Protestant Reformation. From the atonement to the Bible being Christocentric, even discussing how all other religions tell you that you can earn a reward based on your righteous living but Christianity tells you that humanity has no goodness to offer God on their own...they talk about all things Christ-centered on this one!

In episode 48 we discussed SOLA FIDE (Justification by faith alone). We also discussed different ways of understanding faith as a whole: faith vs. works, working & active faith, saving faith and struggling faith, "carnal" Christian type of faith, Weak faith, strong faith, the Reformed understanding of "notitia, assensus, fiducia" as elements of faith and easy-believism faith. Still after all of that faith we had several viewers requesting MORE FAITH TALK. So back by popular demand we bring to you "Sola Fide...part 2"!
