    Episode 99 - BONUS EP. 20: WHOSE AUTHORITY? WHEN SECULAR WORLDVIEWS COLLIDE
    May 23 2023

    No, I'm not back, sorry! Wanted to drop some bonus content like I mentioned in the last episode. Grab a Crunchwrap Supreme and kick back:

    Two sides of the LGBTQ2A+ community have collided. The gay community is accusing the grooming community of hijacking their movement and causing irreparable harm to their social progress.

    Both sides speak with a level of authority as they try to teach the public how to treat members of both communities, how to address each other, and demanding what children must learn.

    So, what happens when two secular worldviews collide? Who is right? Where should Christians stand in all of this? And what authority do Christians, Pastors, and Scripture have?

  • Episode 97 - Dying with Unrepentant Sin In Your Life - Examining Ravi Zacharias' Legacy (BONUS EP!)

    Episode 97 - Dying with Unrepentant Sin In Your Life - Examining Ravi Zacharias' Legacy (BONUS EP!)
    Mar 15 2023
    Previously a private, bonus episode from Base Ministry Support (Patreon), today, we're examining a difficult situation: What happens if you die with unconfessed sin, active addiction, or even unintentional offense towards Almighty God? Infamous apologist, Ravi Zacharias, left a horrifying legacy of secret sex crimes despite his life's devotion to ministry that was devastatingly exposed after his passing. Was he forgiven? Was his sin dealt with? Fortunately for us, we have examples in Scripture to confront this very situation. Watch on YouTube or listen on your favorite podcasting platform.

  • Episode 94 - When Governments Play with Demons

    Episode 94 - When Governments Play with Demons
    Jan 15 2023
    DISCLAIMER: Not suitable for children. Season 5 kicks off with some demonic chicanery. Corrupt governments historically have played with demons and gotten away with murder... literally. However, Scripture prophesied that "the government will be on His shoulders." Let's examine 3 examples of governments and their dealings with the occult and the demonic: Haiti's deal with the devil, CERN's god of destruction, and America's deep history in cults. But, it's not all doom and gloom! Scripture brings hope to this disturbing world. Watch on YouTube or listen on your favorite podcasting platform.
