https://youtu.be/Gx9VZCfwoccWelcome back to the Unmasked Podcast after a long hiatus. This shiny new episode is the first of Season 5, in which Joey and Tyler are addressing the theme of "Thinking in the Spheres".  Should Christians automatically support school levies? In this episode of Unmasked, Joey and Tyler examine the proposed Battleground, Washington school levy and ask a deeper question: has the public school system proven itself trustworthy? They discuss the McCleary decision, rising education budgets, declining academic outcomes, administrative bloat, lack of transparency, and growing ideological conflicts between schools and families. From a biblical and civic perspective, they argue that throwing more money at a broken culture will not fix it—and that voting “no” may actually be the most loving option for children, families, and the community. This episode is especially relevant for Christians navigating education, politics, and civic responsibility in today’s culture. Title: “More Money, Worse Results?

Tyler and Joey welcome you back for a new season on Christian Engagement in the Civil Sphere, or the lack thereof! As usual, they enflame all your sensitive spots and refute the lies you’ve been held captive by for so long about voting. They unashamedly mock the pietistic retreat of most Christians from enthusiastically loving their neighbor in the task of fulfilling their civic duty. Strap in your five-point harness and prepare for 55 g-forces of theological acceleration as they launch you into orbital territory you are (probably) not prepared to go.

In this episode, Tyler and Joey take a break from the topic of the church to address a local city council meeting that Tyler participated in. In this meeting, there was a large crowd that showed up to oppose a "pride proclamation" that the council would be voting on. Several of the council members went on the defensive and even belittled those who came. Tyler and Joey take the time to break down several of the speeches made by the council members and respond to them. They finish by helping the Christian think through their responsibility to their local government.

In this fifth episode of season three, Joey and Tyler return to Athey Creek, a Church in West Linn, OR, which they critiqued in the second episode of this season. They discovered that Brett had responded to their podcast in one of his messages... but in the midst of that discovery, they also came across several clips of Athey's Watch Party promotion: the equivalent of Zoom Church during 2020! And get this, Athey Creek is encouraging it! Get ready for some high-intensity, biblical examination from Joey & Tyler as they revisit some of the issues that sparked the creation of Unmasked Podcast to begin with!

In this fourth episode of season three, Joey and Tyler return to Crossroads Church, dealing with some earlier clips from Fusco's teaching that reveal just how dangerous he really is. Fusco teaches the theologically liberal "source theory" of how the Bible was compiled, blatantly says the opposite of what Scripture teaches in the Genesis creation account, misinterprets the parable of the sower, and asserts that God's word doesn't instruct Christians on how to apply their beliefs to politics! Trust us, you'll need a racing seatbelt to stay strapped in for this one.

Sit back and get ready for some modern theology that is about as biblical as the book of Second Hesitations. Joey and Tyler, in this long awaited third episode of season 3, address some of the novel teachings coming out of our local mega-church, Crossroads Community Church. They directly challenge Daniel Fusco’s twisting of God's Holy Word in several of his popular messages, that are sadly infecting many unsuspecting sheep in the Vancouver - Portland area.

In this second episode of season 3, Tyler and Joey cover the vital topic of the authority of Scripture in the church, reviewing several sermon clips from Athey Creek Christian Fellowship. From their teaching on the unforgivable sin to ancient doctrinal debates over salvation, 'pastor' Brett departs from Scripture's authority leading to serious logical and theological consequences. Continuing the theme of 'The Church', this episode hits on the dangers of false and, frankly, ridiculous interpretations of God's word. CORRECTION: Due to an editing error, an important part of Brett Meador’s commentary was left out from the “I Would...But You Would Not" clip at the 25:28 mark of our video. We’ve added a video link to the sermon below so you can listen to the full context. Listen to at least the 24:32 mark of Athey’s video where Brett Meador says, "Jesus says, 'I would have gathered you even as...'". This is what Tyler and Joey were commenting on, and their comments don’t make sense if you don’t listen to the longer clip.  Link to the messages critiqued in this episode: "Grief From Unbelief", "I Would...But You Would Not", "Election".

Welcome back to the Unmasked Podcast for another jaw-dropping season of unfiltered truth!  In this first episode of season 3, Tyler and Joey kick off the season with a sermon review of "The Church Remains" by Danny Clinton of Kessid "Church" in Vancouver, WA (but is it really a church?). With 'The Church' as the theme of this season, Tyler and Joey set the truth of Christ concerning His church against the false humility and contradictions of the modern 'church' revealed in this review. Buckle your seat belts and grab your micro-aggression ear muffs to get ready for another no-holds-barred, to-the-point podcast from your favorite hosts, Tyler the Honey Badger and Joey the Night Owl.

In this final episode of season two, Joey and Tyler discuss topic of unity by critiquing a series on abortion by New Heights Church that attempts to force false unity between the pro-life and the pro-abortion attendees.  Link to the series critiqued in this episode: shorturl.at/jCJMO CHECK OUT OUR NEW MERCHANDISE WEBSITE AT https://unmasked-mbc.myshopify.com Title: Why Unmasked Is Anti Rape/Murder but You Don’t Have to Be?

In this episode of the Unmasked Podcast, Joey and Tyler continue the topic of unity, and this time they take on hot cultural topics like social justice which many Christian leaders attempt to build false unity around. These ungodly attempts at unity turn out to be nothing more than these leaders showing off or displaying a perceived moral superiority, which only brings dishonor to the name of Christ.  Link too the sermon that is critiqued in this episode: https://youtu.be/-T_pl3kY5-M CHECK OUT OUR NEW MERCHANDISE WEBSITE AT https://unmasked-mbc.myshopify.com Title: Showboating, Sanctimony, or Sanctification: How Fleshly Unity Destroys the Gospel Season Number: 2 Episode Number: 5 To contact, email us at: [email protected] Visit our podcast website at: https://unmasked.buzzsprout.com Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/unmaskedpodcastpnw/ Unmasked is a ministry of Master's Bible Church: https://www.mastersbiblechurch.com/ and https://www.facebook.com/mastersbiblechurch Credits - Opening Song Clip: "Dead Man" by Wolves At The Gate, found in their Reprise EP album; used by permission of the author - Closing Sound Clip: Steven Lawson preaching the sermon titled "It Will Cost You Everything" #unity  #unityinchrist #trueunity #sounddoctrine #christcentered #falseunity [is] #summitviewchurch #washingtonstate #portland #vancouver Keywords: people, christ, church, sin. world , repent, unity, scripture, racism, worldview, talking, reconciliation, pastor.

In this episode of the Unmasked Podcast, Joey and Tyler begin talking about the topic of unity... false unity is one of Satan's most successful trojan horses, but true unity can only be found in Christ. They provide several examples of false unity from other churches in the Vancouver, Washington area and show how their ideas of Christian unity fall short of what God defines unity as in scripture.

In this episode of the Unmasked Podcast, we get into modern abusers and assaults on the conscience. Here are a sample of questions that are answered in this episode: - How important is the conscience in regulating the life of the church? - Is the command to lay down your life for your brother related to issues of the conscience? - How does legalism and antinomianism relate to the conscience? - Can I twist the truth a little bit to help people with a misinformed conscience do the right thing? - How do I both love my neighbor and avoid sinning against my conscience? - Is abortion a conscience issue? - Is obeying the government during lockdowns a conscience issue? - Is the issue of speaking in tongues being necessary for the gospel a conscience issue? - Is following the social justice movement a conscience issue?

In the last episode, we explored the history of Pietism, its general definition, and how this movement is largely responsible for the weakened state of the modern church. In this episode, we dive deep into the specific, heterodox doctrines of Pietism and contrast these with true, orthodox, sound doctrine. If you say, "doctrine doesn't matter," you're making a doctrinal statement! Having doctrine is unavoidable. Since everyone has doctrine, join us in this episode as we guard ours closely (1 Tim 4:16) and refute those who contradict (Titus 1:9) on a matter of great importance to the church today...regardless of whether or not you have a peace about it. Doctrine (dŏk′trĭn) noun -A principle or body of principles presented for acceptance or belief, as by a religious, political, scientific, or philosophic group
