About this listen

Read by the author.

Discover how you can achieve true and lasting greatness…the answer might surprise you.

"If you've picked up this book, you have the opportunity to do more than you ever thought was possible." New York Times bestselling author, Michael Todd

In Welcome to the Basement, podcaster and thought leader Tim Ross shows you how you can achieve true and lasting greatness. But his tools and tactics might surprise you. Ross has put them to the test in his own life, and he's come to believe that the only way up is down, the only way in is out, and that downward mobility is your only hope for upward utility.

For far too long we've been held captive by false promises of hype and hustle in a world that needs hope and healing. Previously published as Upset the World—and now fully revised and rewritten for today's unique challenges, circumstances, and opportunities—Welcome to the Basement is a rallying cry and a practical guide to God's radical last-shall-be-first, least-shall-be-greatest way of living.

Tim will help you:

  • Discover that you are God's masterpiece and learn to receive His unstoppable love and grace.
  • Gain step-by-step guidance for identifying the people, places, and pieces that you've been called to disrupt and shower with God's love.
  • Experience for yourself the good that God has for you--because only people whose lives have been turned upside-down by God can become Kingdom basement dwellers.

The humblest acts of goodness have the greatest power. And the lowest floor of the building is where the real VIPs live.

Will you step down and into the good things God is doing in the world?

A list of Scripture references and “Practical Matters” reflection questions can be found in the audiobook companion PDF download.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

The Gospel of Jesus Christ

I thank God for clarity of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I love the story telling Tim does. I got it now. Tim voiced just what the Holy Spirit showed me out loud. Thank you Lord for Tim Ross being obedient to you Jesus.

Funny, Insightful, and Dope

I love this book! It was a great listen full of Wisdom and anecdotes. There was a lot to unpack and I found myself rewinding parts and pausing to marinate on a statement, not too mention legitimately laughing out loud! This was a pleasant journey and was sorry when it ended. It also helped that it has a purpose to boot. Get it, you will be glad you did.

Succinctly stated, good balance or stories/ examples to amplify the scriptures. Relatable!

NADA- Hope there are workshops in America to allow time to dove deep. We need to hear the gospel again!

Finding Home in Every Word: Welcome to the Basement

As we’re packing up our cozy little apartment for the big move to our new, roomier home, I couldn't wait to get my hands on "Welcome to the Basement" right when it came out. Which I totally did…and prematurely boxed it up. So, I grabbed the Audible version instead, eager to soak in Tim's story amid the sea of cardboard and packing tape. And guess what? I listened to the whole thing in just one day - no April Fools' joke, I promise!

I've always been a bit of a "Dweller," following Tim's journey from "Brickhouse,” so I was all ears. AND - I never expected the book's ending to hit me right in the feels. Right there, in those last few pages, the Conclusion was a message that felt like it was just for me, like a warm hug (or for my fellow churchgoers, a whisper from the Holy Spirit): "I’m giving you a home—fill it." -> You’ll get it when you get there.

This book earns an A+ in my world. As you journey through its pages, you're gently ushered into a sanctuary of peace, meticulously woven by Tim's profound embrace of vulnerability. Though, like me, a piece of you may end upset. 🙃

The breakdown each chapter

I loved the vision painted and how Tim connects his points to scripture. Also, the simplicity of connecting with people and not feeling like you have to be this or that just to go and allow the Holy Spirit to guide you. Thank you, I did not read the first book, and only have saw clips of the podcast. This book was and is a treasure! I need to now go back as listen with my notebook, nerd checking in here!

Uncle Tim you nailed it

I love that I feel like I got to sit down with one of my favorite teachers. Getting to hear all the energy and inflection Tim brings makes the basement hit home. No somber monotonous preaching here and that’s what I love. Tim is challenging my views on so many things and I love learning from him.
