Welcome to the Basement: An Upside-Down Guide to Greatness
by Tim Ross
This book opened my eyes to things I never thought about as a Christian.
While 'The Basement' is rich with insights, I've chosen to highlight the aspects that resonated most with me as they reflect my spiritual journey.
First, I was very hesitant to read past chapter one when he said litty. It is so easy for little things to distract us when God has a more significant message for us.
While many strive for the top, Tim Ross challenges this traditional thinking, suggesting that God calls people to the bottom. His use of the word 'upset' throughout the book has left me questioning: Is the top really the bottom, or is the bottom the actual top in a spiritual context? While reading this, it made me think about how, in Matthew 7: 24-29, God talks about building on firm foundations in Him. It also talks about how the crowds were amazed at Jesus' teachings and how they thought He was unlike their teachers of religious laws. Tim also touches on how we need to follow the word, not religion.

Loved this book! Uncle Tim could do know wrong in the practical way he delivers Kingdom principles to not only get ourselves to the Basement but to help others along the way. I read it loved it and will recommend it to everyone I come into close proximity to because I have one goal and that’s to Upset someone else’s Piece because I have been Upset!!! #Dweller4Life #Bside #WelcometotheBasement
Welcome to the Basement is exactly what the church needs. It speaks to the current culture of Celebrity Christianity. Tim Ross provides practical Biblical wisdom to live as a servant. He debunks the myth that in order to be a successful member of God’s kingdom one must have a national platform or ministry.
Humility and the combination of a healthy relationship and religion are the foundations of being a good ambassador in God’s kingdom. This book creates a space where you can evaluate your feelings and motivations behind how and why you serve.
Welcome to the basement is discipleship simplified. This book has wonderful gems that will help any believer on their walk with Christ and any unbeliever understand the true essence of what Christ intended for his church to be like.
If you listen the Tims podcast you’re already familiar with the basement! But this book expands and takes a deeper dive into the mindset of it! I love that while reading this book it’s still his voice and this is truly a mind and heart shifting book!
I love the mindset of this book!
Living in a way that we see the world as a mission field. Living in a way that we would dare to be courageous enough to get vulnerable with those in our sphere.
The boldness of the author, Tim Ross, has emboldened a whole new generation to live the same.
Highly recommend this book!!!
Tim Ross has created an eye opening, heart filling gem that serves as both nourishment and a balm.
As I read this book so many things in scripture were simplified. I found myself and past experiences in some of the examples he shared. I loved this book and will gladly read more from this author and follow his podcast. I highly recommend this book.
