In an international study, 75 percent of participants said they believe in angels and of those, 36 percent indicated they had an angel experience or encounter. Scott Geurin, our Guest today, will help us understand and connect with Angels. He will introduce us to the history of angels throughout religion, science, and psychology and their dimensional levels of existence. Where do we and angels fit in? Who and what are Spirit Teams and do we all have one? What about ‘The Rapture'? Do angels have free will? And, of course, we'll talk about our Guardian Angels. Through all of this, Scott helps us connect with Angels and our Spirit Team and shares why it is so important right now. His book is Looking for Angels: A Guide to Understanding and Connecting with Angels.

[Original airdate: 4/30/24] Mary Danielsen talks with Linda Harvey about the Social Emotional Learning Curriculum du Jour in the government schools. She is part of a coalition looking deeply into it and it is even more dangerous than she suspected. SEL is more proof that our youth's "mental health", however the left defines it, has become more important to the powers that be than phonics or math, and no wonder - teaching children how to be "better citizens" by teaching them how to react and go along to get along is merely a front for them to accept whatever Marxist ideals get shoved down their throats.  We also discuss how parents are more afraid of the trans agenda than they are of the gay agenda. How do we get them to understand that it's all designed to destroy kids' hearts and minds? Is it a case of "at least I'm not on drugs, Mom" kind of reasoning? An in demand speaker and author, she founded Mission America, a Christian pro-family organization tracking current cultural issues. She is the author of two Christian books, Maybe He's Not Gay: Another View on Homosexuality and Not My Child: Contemporary Paganism and the New Spirituality.   Shameless plug for swag for our listeners/donors! https://www.redpillprints.com/stand-up-for-the-truth - Thanks for YOUR Support!

Time to find faith. To find answers. Its time for change. So i Made a New look and have some great new info. Stay tuned for more.

It seems that there is more division of late on our planet. People are angry and hurt. Since the pandemic, we've all been asked to change and pivot directions, even though we may not know exactly where we are heading. It seems that more people than ever are searching for answers. Lisa continues the conversation today with Steve Farrell, Co-founder & Worldwide Director of Humanity's Team, a global nonprofit organization helping people everywhere awaken to our interconnectedness through platforms such as their new Humanity Stream+ streaming service. They give away a free subscription for every paid subscription.    Steve talks about his latest book, “A New Universal Dream,” which is a true story of how he grew up with 6 siblings and a single mom in a small house. Eleven years later he is in the heart of success of Silicon Valley, then finds himself in the middle of the consciousness conversation.   They discuss how channelers and mediums say one person standing in the light can affect millions in the dark. Buddha and Christ are examples of this. Mediums teach energy work and Steve found a process of the daily practice of meditation and at least 3 times a day just tunes in to the love and light of universal intelligence, pure love. With all the challenges of the world, there is support for people in their journey to consciousness. We can have a new, awake world. A daily practice of meditation and mindfulness can carry energy throughout the day.  It is possible to bring your level of light out to the world, whether meditation, or a walk, or just a moment in which you can brighten someone else's day.  Steve also talks about the “New Spirituality” and the deep understanding that we are spiritual beings. We are approaching a Tipping Point. After Covid, people are looking for a better way to live a life. We must elevate our consciousness. Through meditation and mindful acts, we can all connect to guides and angels and talk with them to get answers.  So many people are still experiencing low-level frequencies of early childhood trauma. We are reacting to this. But there is a way to operate through connectedness and consciousness. Self-compassion is key. Be in the possibility. The inside doesn't get healed until we take time for self-compassion. This is Part 2 of the interview. Info and Free programs are available at HumanitysTeam.org.

CONspirituality - It's a big CON job on the by the dark lord, the god of this world who seeks to copy all things and pervert God and His Holy Word."But evil men and impostors shall wax worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived." [2 Timothy 3:13]At best, the conspirituality movement attacks public health efforts in times of crisis. At worst, it fronts and recruits for the fever-dream of QAnon.As the alt-right and New Age horseshoe toward each other in a blur of disinformation, clear discourse, and good intentions get smothered. Charismatic influencers exploit their followers by co-opting conspiracy theories on a spectrum of intensity ranging from vaccines to child trafficking. Quickly putting themselves as the good guys... Otherwise known as controlled opposition. To what? The New Age, and that means the Old Order must go to make way for the New?Ultimately the NA will be successful through a myriad of Mystical Practices that are all poisoned by the Snake. Mystic and New Age Priestess Alice Bailey stated..."The Christian church in its many branches can serve as a St. John the Baptist, as a voice crying in the wilderness, and as a nucleus through which world illumination may be accomplished.""Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ. [Colossians 2:8]As mentioned in the Video: Film by Chris WhiteDavid Icke Fully Debunked - This film closely examines David Icke's history and beliefs.

Religious pluralism tells us that all roads lead to God, and all religions are equally valid and true.

Many church leaders believe that Antichrist is alive and well and in the world today. But what is being left out of the discussion is how this coming false “Christ” has already mainstreamed his New Age Gospel and New Spirituality into the world and into the church. Using best-selling books and authors that have been popularized by media favorites like Oprah Winfrey and Larry King, the mystical teachings of this false New Age “Christ” state:-A crucified Christ has no meaning.-Humanity saves itself by recognizing its own divinity – the “God” and “Christ” within.-World peace is dependent upon the understanding that humanity is divine.-The only “Satan” is not believing that man is “God.”-World peace will be attained by eliminating biblical Christianity and all of its followers.-A deadly “selection process” will be instituted as part of Antichrist's final solution.Just as Hitler telegraphed his plans in Mein Kampf, so Antichrist has telegraphed his plans through his designated false teachers. Author Warren B. Smith is a former follower of this New Age “Christ.” False Christ Coming—Does Anybody Care? describes the deceptive teachings that undergird Antichrist's deceptive Peace Plan. This book is a wake-up call to a church that remains strangely silent and in deep denial about the very deception that Jesus warned would come in His name (Matthew 24:3-5). Become aware of what's happening, and then warn your friends and family (2 Corinthians 2:11).Video Speaker Warren B. Smith:https://www.newagetoamazinggrace.com/articles-by-warren-b-smith.html

Adam and Sara discuss New Spirituality, and its influence on churches and homes.

The life of the mind is dying! More and more, we are battered everyday by cultural lies that distract us from the truth and deceive our understand. It's time the #TruthBeTold! Listen as we learn from God's word how to recognize the lies, live in the truth, and walk in the light.

With spirituality as a new form of cultural practice Casper ter Kuile, author of The Power of Ritual, and Liane Al Ghusain, content creator and writer at The Scribes and Abaih World, are exploring how to turn everyday practices in life at work into sacred rituals and how spiritual tourism has become a new form of business.

In this episode, we think about how John the Baptist pointed the way to a new spirituality, embodied in Jesus.

Caryl Matrisciana is the featured speaker: topic - The New Spirituality

Born in 1926, Dave enjoyed the advantages of a godly upbringing, and placed his trust in Jesus Christ as his personal Savior and Lord in his early teens. He received a degree in mathematics from U.C.L.A. Marriage to his wife, Ruth, was followed by the birth of four children, a career as CPA/management consultant and, later, the management of several corporations. Along with church-related activities, Dave initiated and became involved in numerous campus ministries and meetings in his home, with a special outreach to Jewish young people and foreign students. Since 1973 Dave's desire for fulltime ministry has found fulfillment through authorship of books dealing with the incursion, into Western culture and the church itself, of Eastern, psychological and selfist philosophies, ecumenism, and other unbiblical teachings. Concern over Islamic politics and religion are reflected in current articles, lectures and interviews. At least 4 million copies of his books have been sold and have been translated into more than 50 languages. They include: The Cult Explosion, The God Makers, The New Spirituality, The Seduction of Christianity, Global Peace and the Rise of Antichrist, Occult Invasion, A Cup of Trembling, In Defense of the Faith, An Urgent Call to a Serious Faith, What Love Is This?, Countdown to the Second Coming, Seeking and Finding God, Honest Doubts, Judgment Day! Islam, Israel, and the Nations,Yoga and the Body of Christ, and his latest book, Cosmos, Creator and Human Destiny. His video, Israel, Islam & Armageddon has become a tremendous tool for churches and others interested in helping spread the truth about events prior to and since the attack on the World Trade Center. Dave's impeccable research and recognized scholarship are based on in depth studies of original documents and publications, interviews with key experts from around the world, and extensive travel—including to South America, Australia, Europe and throughout the Middle East. Friday, April 5, 2013, Dave Hunt drew his final breath and entered into the presence of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. His beloved wife Ruth was at his side. About Kerugma Productions Kerugma Productions is a faith mission which depends solely upon the Lord's provision through his children for everything that is necessary. It was in this manner that the Lord provided in an amazing way, so enabling us to buy one of the first broadcast-quality digital cameras soon after Kerugma was founded. Shortly after that someone mentioned to us that the well-known American Christian author, Dave Hunt, would be visiting South Africa. As we were living in Cape Town at the time, I emailed Dave Hunt to ask if it would be possible to film the messages he would deliver in this city upon his visit to our country. He responded by inviting me to film every message of his prolonged tour. It was arranged for him to preach during July and August 1999, beginning in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe and on to Johannesburg, Welkom, Pietermaritzburg, Durban and along the coast down to Port Elizabeth and then Cape Town. After that, the concluding message would be in Pretoria. I was pleasantly surprised and very grateful for his invitation and benevolence. Very few international speakers would welcome those unknown to them to oversee the filming and production of DVD's of their messages. However, when I started to budget for this filming I soon realized that it wouldn't be possible to film all of the messages. The DVCAM cassettes used for the camera, alone, would have cost a small fortune to purchase. Then one would also have had to take into account the flight tickets, accommodation and other travel costs. However, at the time that Dave Hunt would have been in Johannesburg, I had to go to Johannesburg for the demonstration of an edit suite. It would have been impossible to not have had an edit suite with which to edit all the filming. This was at the beginning of the digital era. At that stage there was still only one edit suite in the world that could effectively edit the DVCAM footage of this camera. But this edit station was very expensive. The company that marketed it, informed us that another edit suite, less than half the price of that one, had just been released by a new manufacturer. The Lord provided through a wonderful donation from one of his children so that we were in a position to apply for the necessary financing for this unit. Thus it was arranged that I could attend a video exposition where this edit suite would be demonstrated during the time that Dave Hunt would be presenting his services in Johannesburg. The person who drove Dave Hunt and his wife from Johannesburg to Welkom, offered me a lift with them. And so the Lord provided for me to also film the messages there. During the trip to Welkom I had the opportunity to learn to know Dave and Ruth better. Dave by occupation, was a chartered accountant. During his vacations he often took part in outreaches at university campuses. While they were living in Paris, France, they smuggled Bibles into communist countries to the persecuted church with the ministry of Brother Andrew, Open Doors. In this way they used every possible opportunity to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ. For him it was just normal that a child of God would always be busy obeying the commandment of our Lord Jesus in Matthew 28:19. With reference to his upbringing, he said that his father held family devotions twice every day. When I asked about all the Christian books that he had written, he said that he had walked into a Christian book store at the age of 40, for the first time in his life. Although he started writing earlier, he only fully committed himself to his writing career after his retirement. And that, not because he just wanted to write books, but because he felt that the Lord wanted him to address certain very pertinent issues in the church. Out of his dedication came the book, “Seduction of Christianity” which is possibly one of his most well-known writings. Because of his books he was asked to speak in churches and at conferences and other gatherings all over the world. He also said that Dr. Andrew Murray was his favourite Christian writer. At one stage of his life he had a deep hunger to know more about the work of the Holy Spirit in the life of a believer. That led him to the reading of the works of a sixteenth century writer, William Law. This made such an impression on him that he wanted to share what he read with others. The problem was that the old English that Law used, as well as his writing style, made his works inaccessible to the modern reader. Therefore he wrote and published William Law's book in modern language, in 1967 as “The Power of the Spirit” by William Law, Edited by Dave Hunt (Christian Literature Crusade). But then he discovered that the South African author, Andrew Murray, had also translated William Law's book into modern English, in 1896. And so he discovered the book: “The Power of the Spirit” Selections from the Writings of William Law and edited by Andrew Murray (Bethany Fellowship, Inc). The two books were basically identical. That inevitably led Dave to read more of Andrew Murray's books. My personal impression of Dave Hunt was that, next to Richard Wurmbrand, he was certainly the most humble man I ever met. When I asked him if I could not film his personal testimony of how he learned to know the Lord Jesus to add to one of the DVDs, he became very quiet. He just said that it should never be about him or his personal experience, but only about the Lord Jesus Christ. He waived the idea by saying that we must rather speak about the Lord Jesus and not about him that people should be drawn to Jesus through him rather than to write about him. After filming the services in Welkom, I returned to Cape Town to wait there for him for the services to begin in Cape Town. When we met again he told me about one of the services they had led in the coastal areas. He stated that of all the services scheduled to be filmed, that one should have been the one. While in Cape Town he and his wife referred time and again to that service and every time said that they wished that one had been filmed. During the services in Cape Town I had the opportunity to introduce Marina and our three children to the Hunts. At this time Ruth asked me if I am following them to Pretoria for the concluding service. I then explained to her that I would very much like to do so, but sadly it would not be financially possible. After that she approached me again about it. I really felt embarrassed but although I really wanted to go, there was just no way that I could afford it. Should I have to explain to her that I had no salary, pension or any other income? Was it not enough to say that our family lived by faith and the Lord did not provide for this? Marina and I of course prayed much about it, but it was not possible and we just had to accept it. Someone who attended that service phoned me afterwards to tell what a wonderful service it was. That person then said, “You should have been here to film it!” Up until today I regret that I had not had the opportunity to film that meeting. It feels as though the opportunity has been lost forever. Thus there are many things that we do not understand. Through the years there were so many opportunities like this for filming that we just could not afford to do. Currently there are many archaeological tours in Bible countries that, were we able to visit, we could film for the enjoyment of many viewers. We do not fully know the reasons why, but we are rested in the assurance that God knows all things and so we trust in His provision for our every need. At this stage it is enough for us to know that our lives and finances are in His hands. Thus there are different projects that we started off during the years that are still incomplete because of financial shortages.

REBROADCAST - An interview with Marianne Williamson on the America Meditating Radio Show. Marianne Williamson, internationally acclaimed author and lecturer, has been a popular guest on television programs such as Oprah, Good Morning America and Charlie Rose, to name a few.  Six of her ten published books have been New York Times bestsellers. Her books include A Return to Love, The Law of Divine Compensation, A Woman's Worth and her newest release, Tears to Triumph - The Spiritual Journey from Suffering to Enlightenment.

Those of us who are Pagan and/or Wiccan are fortunate: Some of our most important holidays have mundane equivalents on different days, and it means we have two chances at some things.  The mundane New Year's Day is like that because of its parallels to Samhain.  Not only do both celebrate endings and beginnings, it is an opportunity to help beginnings with resolutions.  One resolution that I am making is to strengthen my spiritual life.Your spiritual life is your own and private, with the only exceptions being if you have a teacher for that area, and for those activities done in a group, such as group rituals.  Other than ant, it's yours and your business.  And on that note, we can explore.Blessed Be!
