PRAYING THIS IS THE FIRST OF MANY /FEW.. IF THE LORD WILLS 🙌🏽 cant some to this, im from PA... but I would love to take a trip to TX sometime for this !!!

[@trinettefayne5758]

I promise this was on time. Me and my sister was just talking and I just sent that scripture to her. And Tim you are so so funny!!!!!!! I was cracking up watching this.

[@changeispain746]

In a long season (close to 2 years) where I lost so much.. my wife- im separation and in process of divorce.. my business- in process of losing my truck as a truck driver.. and have lost so much financially.. honestly at times it feels like I lost and failed in life.. I’m believing God’s word that “He is my shepherd, I shall not want” (or I lack nothing). Everyday is a step of faith for me as I walk with the Holy Spirit, and my therapist.. I do believe God will change my life in such a way where only He gets the Glory. Keep me in your prayers as I’m believing God will turn my finances around, and also learning to be good with myself in singleness, not needing attention and validation from women but in Jesus alone especially during the hard times where I feel so lonely. Thank you Tim and all basement crew and family. I love you

[@PriscillaandJohnnie]

I will be praying for you. God SEES you! ❤️‍🩹 and we love you!

[@ironmonk7593]

Reading what you wrote really makes me feel not alone with my journey with God. I would like to share something that God gave me. “Trust me, I will make it right. I will make a way through the obstacles. No matter how large the obstacles, I will overcome them.”-God

[@imaribeard1619]

Alll prayers to you god will make a way for you. The wilderness doesn’t come to hurt it come to heal and grow. Stay strong👏🏾👏🏾 AMEN

[@sunshinegold9093]

My friend going through something similar so I understand the frustration of everything seem like it's crashing. Believe this ❤ God wants to give you more!!!!!! that's why he's cutting back these things and cutting these things out your life because HE wants to give you more because you deserve it it's your time. believing the light at the end of the tunnel

[@janitahalle4812]

You are in my prayers. Just remember, Jesus heard your prayers, and your testimony reminded me of Job. Just know everything is a process. Just read your word, "Pray and praise and worship music tap into Jesus and rejoice and watch Jesus move on your life

[@Worship_Together]

This song is SO TIMELY for my family and I! My 13 year old sister has cancer, and Sunday I had gotten a call from my parents asking to gather all of my siblings to come and say our goodbyes… We prayed, we asked for a miracle, and here we are 5 days later and my sister has made a MIRACULOUS recovery and doctors are in AWE!

[@FarrahParis]

Amen!!!!!

[@mrs.trinababy3054]

Hallelujah‼️ Glory to God🙏🏽

To God be the glory.

[@CED.Dweller]

Shout out to Hector for being obedient and moving without having a clue of the enormous impact…

[@jamiehigh924]

"Well let's ask Him" Danggg, I almost cussed when you said that. That thing hit my spirit like an answer to many attempts the enemy might try on me in the future. Danggggg, that thing is still cooking in my soul. I cant wait to get with The Father and let Him open that up to me even more. That was good. Tim, you gone have all of us Basement Dwellers free and confident in Him! I'm loving being in the Basement!

[@susieqshields]

I retired from full-time ministry in January, my pastor always used to say -it is way more important to know your weaknesses -than it is your strengths. Thank you again Pastor Tim.🙌🏼

[@missnurseeri]

Cali here!!! Watching the replay on my lunch hour. Wonderful way to start the work week.

[@christiekibuchikirina]

I followed God in crazy faith and right after that radio silence. This is coming at the most perfect time!

[@Amy-yi3sd]

These are my favorite type of pods. Just y’all chatting it up. AND SAMMY - repeat after me - I am NOT a burden to ppl I AM A BLESSING TO PPL. Because you are brother you truly are. When that lie comes you replace it with the truth. You are not a burden you are a blessing sir.

[@annettmarriebarrett]

Thank you Tim Ross & the Basement team! Every day you throw us a life-line of hope! Your Words of Wisdom encourage us to believe God, to trust him, and to keep moving forward. Thanks for being vulnerable & authentic! That's so rare and I appreciate it.😊

[@anthonyjohn7042]

I just bought tickets for my entire family. Flying into DFW from Orlando. Yes we are coming by Spirit. The 4 of us will be in attendance.

[@dinahdiaries1866]

I literally just purchased this ticket in faith! New mom of a preemie baby, and I have never left town without her before. Planning a one night luxury trip to Irving to treat myself to this honor, because I want to finally walk in obedience with the LORD. I love ths pod, and support the launch🙌🏽💛! Let’s Gooo!!!!!

[@jeaninesmith1978]

I love to hear that it's okay to question God and still trust in Him, and He still loves me. I struggled with that for a while, but it is refreshing to hear you say that you question God too at times.😊

[@amygreene9470]

As a “chronic over-sharer” ..Tim’s story gives me peace. I wrestle with some general anxiety, what I call a sinking feeling sometimes and your voice, sermons, words of advice, scripture- all of it help tremendously. I know the Holy Spirit speaks through you and prompts me on prayer requests and assurances. Thank you for what you do. 🤍🤍🤍

[@godsdaughterscollectiveTV]

It's these moments of sincerity and genuine connection that make you Tim Ross, such a gift to the kingdom. When you stopped in your tracks and let tears fall and just soaked up that encouragement, beloved my heart got excited for you. I pray that every good word be made manifest in your life today! God bless you and may His voice continue to be the loudest in your mind and spirit. ❤ (I'm about 2 and a half years into ministry and it's been a very difficult journey, but true authentic voices like yours have been encouraging to me to put my full self into the gospel). So keep going big bro, we need you out here!❤

[@heatherfaris5715]

This is God doing Exceedingly, Abundantly more!!!! ❤❤❤❤

[@VeronicaSanchez-gp9gs]

I love the vulnerability. Your rawness is so warming. You are all amazing ❤

[@frankmejia4804]

Is anyone else crying? I thank god for these men rn

[@jonathandavis837]

Tim, Hector, Sam and Julie you guys are amazing, I LOVE YOU! Thank you for following the voice of God with this POD!

[@JeanJessica]

This is incredible This whole weekend someone was on my mind to pray for, and so last night I thought about what I would write in a letter to help encourage them and gave it to them today. Encouragement is so much needed. You never know what someone may be experiencing but your words have power to help give them a push to continue going forward or for them to know that they were seen in their brokenness So guys, thank you for this podcast, and how you challenge us to grow relationally but also transparently

[@rissarooz92]

Thank you, Tim and the Basement crew for the realness and vulnerability you exhibit in these sessions. Thank you for your philosophy, your exaltation of word, and your connection to the community that surrounds you. Thank you for normalizing the attacks of the enemy in everyday life when the pressure is on and how to shift that focus. Thank you for your authenticity and your humanity. I'm so happy that you guys could get some encouragement back from the community you encourage.

[@katefab1028]

WHOOOOO that part about Eve just fact-checking with God hit me soooo good because there are so many times that the enemy or even just voices from my past create feelings of doubt, anxiety and insecurity within me and the fact it's just a matter of saying God this is what is being said about me, is it true?! And He will tell you exactly what His word says about You and the situation! Whew I could curl up in a ball in cry if I wasn't at work

[@natalierichar9835]

Wow!! Never occurred to me to challenge the lie and ask God what he says about a thing!! great advice

[@cindychan5635]

Thank you for tuning in to Holy Spirit and speaking and walking things in action! Powerful!

[@monniedee1999]

"Afraid to give all of me because they won't accept me..." 💯💯💯💯

[@overcoffee4488]

Love you guys! The fact that you shared that we need to confess our weaknesses and then to hear you and Sammy! Then the encouragements.. tears…. You all encourage me. I’m learning so much… thank you for always keeping it a buck with us! It’s needed. ❤️❤️💪🏽💪🏽🙏🏽

[@nancycisneros2070]

I'm looking forward to the live stream because I live in Nevada. Amen

[@THEONLINETESTERTHELAB]

LOVE THIS SPACE I JUSS LOVE IT!!

[@kimberlyk601]

I hope you all know just how much we love each and everyone of you. We as the Dwellers are so grateful for your presence and love you show us by drawing us closer to God through your work on the Basement. Always know you are LOVED ❤and thank you for being the amazing people you all are!!!

[@Alencianic]

I ask for prayers to help me forgive myself and love myself. I want to understand that God loves me and knows that I have tried with my relationship.

[@antoniabarker6709]

SAMMY! OH My Gosh! Thank God you understand. I’m the same way when I meet for dates or even friendships and people always say I over share… when I hear that, I just say to myself “okay God they just can’t hold space for me and can’t handle my honesty/ whole self… AND that’s okay 😊 because”

[@imaribeard1619]

Thank you Holy Spirit!! You know how much I needed this!!!!

[@brandijohnsonpresents7029]

I love Tim’s, vulnerability!! Tim, you remind me of my aunt Gina. She has passed on now, but she would often refer to herself as a weeping willow! Lol 😂 because she would show her vulnerability and loved to express herself. How do I become a dweller?

[@THEONLINETESTERTHELAB]

SIR KEEP GOING KEEP DOING WHAT YOU ARE DOING....THANK YOU FOR YOUR TRANSPARENCY!!!

[@Antixocialbutterfly]

Seeing my uncle cry makes me emotional. You don’t understand how much love I have for this man!

[@deve274]

Hello everyone, I’m asking for prayers as I go through a season of growth and change and I’ve been overwhelmed at times and fighting with fear and doubt. I am asking God for the desires of my heart, if my plans agree with his will, which is to transform my mind and my heart, restore my family and my relationship, make me financially stable, and to give me clarity on my career choice and which route I should take. I’ve lost everything and hit rock bottom and now I am trying to just piece my life back together. Thank you Lord in advance 🙏🏾

[@fayerwashington51]

Thank you soooooo much Tim Ross and everyone that is on your team❤. I have been tuned in for almost two months now and my life and heart are forever being soothed. I turned 72 years old on September 28. I had never heard of you until my friend Carla A. Williams turned me on to you and "The Basement". Your safe haven and vulnerability is refreshing beyond anything that I have encountered. It is my hope to be at the initial launch. Terrell is not that far from Irving. I am so excited.

[@Niecey.lovesyou]

Tim!!!!!!! I cried right along with you, 30 mins into the pod and I was wrecked 😂 I wish I caught the live Hector did, but I will say thank you for being the coolest uncle I have never had. I appreciate your honesty, vulnerability, and just you as a human being. You are so special and wherever the basement goes, I’m steppin right behind y’all ❤️

[@Niecey.lovesyou]

Also, your sermon Stop tripping is still blessing my life!

[@dursabrina]

Jesus I listened to this while working and tears are falling from my eyes this made cry and hurt but rejoice at the same time God is good despite all

[@hisgracespokenword9565]

Come onnnnn ... this blessed my heart.... I was in a situation just recently that I had to make the choice to show it all, or hide and I choose to show it all. I was like if you can take my whole being, then its worth it. I would not choose to lie about who I fully am. I don't want to be fake.

[@doewalker7697]

The notes of what people like best about them is the sweetest thing ever! I love that.

[@Marianyashaa]

This is my fave episode in a minute! The vulnerability and openness was so timely and encouraging. Appreciate y’all for letting us be a part of it ❤️❤️❤️

[@Angela-fk3en]

I didn't get to say my peace. I am thankful for your obedience to start this podcast as your transparency is so refreshing. I have learned so much from you and most of your guests. When you geek out, I geek out with you. I feel like finally someone who gets it.

[@shellyt7173]

I’m grateful you’re doing what God asked you to do, and I don’t think you’ll know until we wrap this race up how many families you’re influencing TOWARD all God has living above the noise. We live in a aggressively deceptive time. We gotta be talking to help one another.

[@tembelihlechifamba1790]

This was right on time, especially when Sam spoke about feeling like a burden been there so many time so grateful for this guys. This was amazing

[@patricefeanny497]

Ohhh this Purple is blazzzziinnnggg on you UNCLE TIMMYYY❤❤❤❤ YOU GUYS ARE MY ADAPTED DAD, UNCLE ,BIG BROTHER, MANTOR, SOUNDING BOARD, SAFE PLACE, HOMMIE ALL IN ONE.

[@breebullock9394]

In a season where I have to, I must trust God. I am fighting suicide and rejection like never before. Stopped working my business, my gift as a result. I am tryingbto show up as strong and ok but I'm not. Self harm thoughts triggered every hour all because of situations that have happened. Looking to my Heavenly Father because I have nothing else, but if he doesn't answer my prayers, I fear that I won't make 2024.

[@carriecooksey]

24:36 brooooooooo…… This is exactly what’s been happening to me - I’m single so it hits different bc I’m like why am I dreaming about this person and that person, and no one is off limits. It never crossed my mind that it was spiritual warfare in my dreams 🤯

[@nicolejohnson9433]

I got mine! I’m sliding In from Cali!!!

[@TheThirdChair]

You guys are great. I love the vulnerability that you guys are also so open to showing. I always feel the Holy Spirit through the screen when I watch your videos.

[@Lawyergini]

Beautiful vulnerability in this space Bless you

[@MsHJones]

I NEEDED this word TODAY!!!

[@ChellGriffin]

1:21-1:30 was for me. I really needed to hear this. I think this was confirmation for me honestly.

[@Bleeme3]

Man this was so timely , I took a pause watching and started scrolling on social media looking at all the chaos going on in the world with Israel and everything , kinda made me scared but him reminding us that God does not give us the spirit of Fear snapped me back into action bro 🙏🏽 I love this podcast and I thank God for the Holy Spirit leading the team to speak on these topics

[@myraking8998]

I love Tim & the crew but mainly watch for Sam! He has such a great spirit! Love ya Sam!

[@keturahjoy6574]

I am in the same situation with the Job. I have been applying but I am not landing anything. I’m to the point where I am going to give up and just stay here where I’m at 🤷🏾‍♀️

[@roseallen5514]

Thank you Tim for modeling compassion with accountability ❤ I was accountability without compassion and haven’t been able to effectively disciple

[@rochellejones-thomas6754]

Hector you are not too much for people. I got this too and just the other day God told me to be more, be bolder have fun. I got you!!

[@c.t.burton7438]

Tears!! God will literally reveal Himself and say nope… do the thing I called you to do! I will lay out your fears and tears,encourage you, and then reset you back to continue to do what I asked you to do! 🫶🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾 so glad you pressed to move forward with the App and this (new) ministry. TY Tim Ross and team for letting God use you.

I love everyone he reads this. ~ Keep going, it gets better, and this I promise.🌹

[@misskrish5930]

Mr. Ross, to you and your team, I absolutely love y’all and thank you for your obedience. ❤

[@melodineruiters1602]

May I just say thank you so much Pastor Tim you are called for such a time as this shout out to your amazing team I am so excited to see the fruit of the Basement it will be plentiful and we will see it in our lifetime!!! 💪🔥🇿🇦

[@sarahhinkel8538]

Oh OK cool! Perfect I’ll be there virtually. Thank you.!!!!

[@Kimberlys.opinion]

13:28 okay I have to stop the video and say this. When it comes to OVERSHARING,I’m learning, you need to step back and “UNDERTAKE” the conversation of the person you’re speaking to. Step back and listen to what they want to talk about, get a feeling for the depths of sharing they’re comfortable with, then speak on that level. -If it’s too superficial and there’s no depth, then maybe that’s a sign of unequally yoked. - or they could just need a trust foundation before jumping in the deep, sharing of their life. Either way by stepping back and letting them lead the conversation will tell you a lot, and save you a lot of time. ❤

[@LisaBrown-ys6ke]

Thank you Tim and production for The Basement. I discovered the show after the interview with Dr Dharius Daniels. From there I started following you. Praise God for you Tim. I love your authenticity, spiritual intelligence, love for your family, and most importantly your reverence/love for God!

[@prettysmile777]

I rarely say this about anything, but I really, really, really needed this episode. I'm grateful that you all shared this. Thank you.

[@jwbaltazar]

I needed the encouragement, too 😢

[@aneb914]

I identified with Sam! Thank You for verbalizing it.

This podcast episode was so good!!!! I have been in a wilderness and this episode blessed me. Thank you for your vulnerability. Thank you for your obedience to do this podcast. Thank you allowing me to be a basement dweller. You all rock!!!

[@UKMarketing007]

It is with loving kindness that God draws us together - as individuals and communities (B Dwellers)! Let the words of Christ and the affirmations of the Dwellers be an ointment for your heart - Tim/Sam/Hector/Julie - Go boldly in the name of Christ!

[@Novaling116]

Thanks Tim for normalizing having mindless time! I feel like I get burnt out so easily and I'm constantly trying to find things that I enjoy but are productive at the same time!

[@teresamarie6481]

[@LuciriaParis]

your amazing Tim and i love this podcast, i been watching this for days now. This podcast is drawing me more back to salvation. Thank you and keep going, the enemy is mad as hell because he is losing daily by the minute.

[@kinshasab]

PLEASE PLEASE!!!! Share this with the staff and Tim’s Fam!!! First sorry I’m not on as regularly as I would like, so I missed the post to submit the one thing we like about each of you. The list is too long but to each on you. Thank you!!!! When i say I was at THE turning point in my life were I began to question EVERYTHING including if I truly believed in God. This podcast, your transparency, your vulnerability, your wisdom…it all saved me from making one of the biggest mistakes of my life and that was to turn from God! Everytime I see a negative reaction video, I literally laugh because they are missing the entire point of the Basement! Sometimes the very thing ppl are upset or talked bad about the podcast is the very reason we all are running to the basement! I notice everything! From the infectious laugh of ol’boy on your staff to how you love on your children and wife and how respectful your children are. Thé joy, appreciation, respect and love of your staff, you, and your family is inspiring! Please continue to do what God is calling all of you to do because it’s so needed. We need your light! My prayer is that as y’all pour out more is poured into you! I love all of you even though we’ve never met you are family! I could go on and on just thank you y’all so much for being the bridge we need.❤

[@adoyomolla]

[@amandastokes7227]

Holy spirit, you are welcome here Come flood this place and fill the atmosphere Your glory God is what our heart longs for To be overcome by your presence, Lord! 🎤 🎙 🎵 🎶 This is NOT a crappy pod. It's ok to sit in silence and let the Spirit move on the hearts to those tuning in. Let Him move in those tears, and in your openess! You are a channel of vulnerability and you are a passage to divine healing. God allowed such a gift to be bestowed upon you as a MAN. A MAN needed to do this. A man of God and you have blessed us by being a surrendered vessel. I thank God for His expression of love through you and your ministry because your ministry NEVER stopped. It just moved. All I can do is reverence in this beautiful silence! All I can do is thank Him such an unconditional love I could NEVER reciprocate. Thank you God for who you are! And thank you team for your surrender and obedience to the most High! I pray a peace that surpasses all understanding over you all and the great I am, I thank you for being our banner and our comforter! You are ALL that we need and I honor you Lord! We bind up all attacks of the enemy and we loose the glory of the Lord on our lives in YHWH name! Amen!
