BCU podcast |  Pop Quiz: The Offensive Accusation |  Ep 401

🔥 Most people talk about grace—but few truly understand it.

In this bold episode, we break down what the Bible really says about God's grace, how it works with faith and obedience, and what sin you're actually forgiven of when you come to Christ.

We unpack the powerful truth that we are saved by grace through faith—but faith without works is dead. That means works are still required—not works of the law, but works of faith that flow from a heart transformed by God.

🎯 In this episode, we cover:

What it actually means to be saved by grace through faith
Why works of the law are not the same as works of faith
Why common grace (given to all) is a reason for deep thankfulness
What sins are forgiven at salvation—and what happens if we sin willfully after knowing the truth
Why abusing God’s grace is dangerous for believers
If you’ve ever wondered, “Can I live however I want and still be under grace?”—this episode will shake and strengthen your theology.

📖 Key Scriptures: Ephesians 2, Hebrews 10, James 2, Romans 6

- The Hardened Heart: Signs, Dangers, and Recovery

The Risk of Losing Salvation + Why Believers Still Need to Repent - Valiant Podcast #7

Too many people confuse repentance with just feeling bad or saying sorry. But real repentance goes far deeper—and without action, your words mean nothing. In this must-hear episode, we break down what biblical repentance really is, what it’s not, and why asking for forgiveness is worthless if your life doesn’t change.

We also answer a critical listener question:
👉 If salvation is a free gift, is it still conditional?
👉 Do works cancel out grace? Or are they part of how we live out our faith?

🔥 This is one of the most important messages for every believer today. Don’t just watch—share this with friends and family who need to hear the truth about repentance and salvation. Let’s stop playing church and start living transformed lives.

(2 of 2) One last ride! We've reached the end of our time in the so called "Minor Prophets." Malachi is a little book that is four chapters of heartache and hope. On one hand there are eight disputes between God and a covenant disloyal people who despise His name. On the other hand, there is hope for the remnant who esteem Him as well as future hope in the Messiah. Join us as we process the Minor Prophets one last time.

290 | The So Called Minor Prophets: Malachi (part 2 of 2)

Is perfection possible this side of heaven? 🤯 In this episode, we take on the question most are afraid to answer: Does the Bible teach that perfection is the goal—and can we really get there? We dig deep into Scripture and explore:

✅ Did Enoch and Elijah really escape death?
✅ Can someone enter heaven before they die?
✅ Is it possible to receive a glorified body while still on earth?
✅ What does Jesus say about being perfect?
✅ How do we pursue spiritual perfection—and is it even attainable?

We’re not holding back in this one. Expect truth bombs, real Bible study, and a bold call to go beyond surface-level faith.

👉 If you’re hungry for more than just religious routine and want to walk in the fullness of what God has for you, this episode is for you.

📖 Scriptures referenced: 1 John 2, Matthew 5:48, Hebrews 11, Genesis 5, 1 Corinthians 15, Philippians 3, and much more!

How To Pray Dangerous Prayers with Sharon Bolan

n this message Pastor Nate Dumlao brings a powerful word around the importance of obedience and trust in God's calling. Using Exodus 3 and the story of Moses, Pastor Nate challenges us to stop living in fear, control, or disappointment—and instead live a life marked by a continuous “yes” to God's will. Every "yes" aligns us with heaven's assignment and opens the door to transformation not just in our lives, but in the lives of others around us.

IF ITS GOD, iTS A YES | Pst Nate Dumlao

In this episode, we dive deep into one of the most misunderstood topics in the Bible — the roles of men and women in the home and in the church.

📖 Scriptures Covered:

Genesis 2–3: God’s design from the beginning
1 Corinthians 11: Headship, honor, and spiritual order
1 Timothy 2–3: What Paul really meant about women not teaching

We clear up the confusion surrounding verses about submission and authority, showing how God's roles for men and women are not oppressive — they’re purposeful. You’ll learn how biblical submission is strength, not weakness, and why God calls men to work hard and lead with humility and sacrifice.

✅ Key Takeaways:

What biblical submission really means (and what it doesn’t)
Why Paul’s words in 1 Timothy 2 were never meant to devalue women
How men and women complement each other when walking in their God-given roles
The powerful why behind God's design — and how it blesses families, churches, and society.

👉 Whether you’ve struggled with these verses or simply want clarity, this episode will equip you to stand confidently on Scripture and live out God’s design with wisdom.
