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.

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 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.

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.

- 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?

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

Why has Christianity been powerless in the face of so many attacks from the culture? Why are most churches filled with compromising and cowardly leaders in the face of these challenges? Largely for one reason: Pietism. What started as a fringe Lutheran split soon came to covertly dominate the presupposition of the West.  As Christians, we have been on the losing side of Pietism for centuries. Join us as we look into a ubiquitous church heresy that has been affecting you without your even knowing it. How? Because you're convinced it's Christianity.

We're back! James Coates has been released. GraceLife has been gathering underground. Pastors in Finland were illegally detained during their worship service. In this episode we give some updates and thoughts on these recent events surrounding government tyranny upon faithful pastors.

Covid-19 and massive government lockdowns have been a tremendous blessing upon the church, causing us to go back to Scripture to solidify a biblical expression of what the Church is, and her relationship to the State.

We are urging all faithful Christians to hear our plea and stand with James 'Bunyan' Coates, imitating his faith. Open your (Christ's) church in which you are pastor (undershepherd), preach the gospel, and compel others to do the same!

Philippians 3:17–21 Brethren, join in following my example, and observe those who walk according to the pattern you have in us. For many walk, of whom I often told you, and now tell you even weeping, that they are enemies of the cross of Christ, whose end is destruction, whose god is their appetite, and whose glory is in their shame, who set their minds on earthly things. For our citizenship is in heaven, from which also we eagerly wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ; who will transform the body of our humble state into conformity with the body of His glory, by the exertion of the power that He has even to subject all things to Himself.

"The apostles went away rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for the name of Christ, that they were graced so far as to be disgraced for the name of Christ!" - Thomas Watson

"At the day of Doom men shall be judged according to their fruits. It will not be said then, Did you believe? But, Were you doers, or talkers only?" - John Bunyan

Matthew 5:16 Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.

James 2:18 But someone may well say, “You have faith and I have works; show me your faith without the works, and I will show you my faith by my works.
