What does bold faith look like when the cost is everything?In this powerful episode of the 55:11 Podcast, Dirk Smith and Brooke Kehl are joined by Lanny Tucker, Monty Tuttle, and Jim Black to reflect on their recent journey through the Baltics. Around kitchen tables and in quiet conversations, they heard testimonies of courage, exile, and hope—from a Belarusian family who risked it all to follow Christ, to local leaders once caught in addiction and despair, now shepherding others with the gospel, to a woman whose life was radically transformed from generational witchcraft to radiant faith in Jesus.These stories are raw, humbling, and unforgettable. They reveal not only the weight of persecution but the beauty of perseverance, and the unstoppable power of God's Word in the darkest places. If you've ever wondered what it really means to follow Jesus when it costs everything—or if you need encouragement to keep pressing on in your own walk of faith—this episode is for you.Download the Baltics Trip Report: https://www.eem.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Baltics-Trip-Report_Podcast-.pdf Follow us on: PRAY.COMShow Notes:Follow us on: PRAY.COMConnect with EEM:EEM WebsiteEEM FacebookEEM LinkedInEEM InstagramEEM Media

In this prophetic sermon, Pastor Scott exposes a deadly enemy connected to end time events. Leviathan is the destroyer of marriages, families, churches, and destinies. This sermon will expose Leviathan and equip you to overcome this spirit in your life and family! In this powerful message, we're confronted with the reality of spiritual warfare, particularly focusing on the spirit of Leviathan. Drawing from Isaiah 27 and Job 41, we're shown how this spirit operates through pride, twisting communication, and bringing cycles of destruction. The key to overcoming Leviathan isn't found in our own strength, but in deep humility and repentance. We're challenged to examine our hearts for any areas of pride, unforgiveness, or bitterness that might give this spirit a foothold. The message emphasizes the importance of putting on the full armor of God daily, especially the shield of faith, to protect ourselves from spiritual attacks. It's a sobering reminder that our battle isn't against flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers in the spiritual realm. As we humble ourselves and seek God's face, we can trust that He will wield His mighty sword against Leviathan and bring us to victory.

In this special Business of Woo-themed episode of The Skeptical Shaman podcast, host Rachel White (of TOTEM Readings) chats with Cardsy B (of the Hex and the City podcast) all about what life is really like as a full-time working witch in residence at one of Manhattan's premier boutique hotels.And, while there's some literal magic in Cardsy's workdays, there is also the reality of the Business of Woo: the increasing exertion required to maintain healthy client boundaries, navigate parasocial dynamics, and process untethered-- and often nasty-- criticism that cuts to the core of your character.The bottom line? You can't make everybody happy all of the time, so Woo-based business owners and full-time psychic practitioners need to establish codified "shop policies" that enable them to stay consistent while conserving their precious energy while working with the general public. In this episode, Rachel and Cardsy chat about what a psychic session is supposed to deliver. Spoiler alert: getting a tarot reading or psychic sessions isn't actually a good way to manage anxiety, nor can a reading or session actually shift the material reality of your life. It's just a diagnostic, and one that the client should come away from feeling empowered and ready to tackle the world of free will-- just with better data;)LINKS:Rachel's Website: https://www.totemreadings.comTOTEM Readings Substack: https://totemrach.substack.comRachel's Other Links: https://linktr.ee/totemrachPlease support the Sponsors of The Skeptical Shaman Podcast:The TOTEM Flower Essence Deck: https://a.co/d/gw16LsGThe TOTEM Tarot Deck:https://totemreadingsatx.etsy.com/listing/1492934343The TOTEM Flower Essences: https://www.etsy.com/shop/TotemReadingsATXCardsy B's LINKS:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cardsyb/Linktree: https://bio.cardsyb.com/Please note: The views and opinions expressed on The Skeptical Shaman do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of the podcast.

In this episode, I talk with Tahverlee, the radiant force behind the Moon Temple Mystery School -- a true modern mystic, Priestess, and teacher of the sacred arts. Tahverlee carries the flame of ancient wisdom into the present, helping people awaken their own inner magic and reclaim their divine sovereignty.We explore what it truly means to be a good witch in today's world, not a caricature or fantasy, but a fully embodied being who walks in harmony with both the light and the shadow. Tahverlee shares her path of bridging the mystical and the mundane, showing how the old ways of ritual, earth connection, and energetic mastery still live and breathe within us.Our conversation dives into the meaning of sovereignty -- what it means to stand as a self-realized, empowered being in a world that often forgets the sacred. We talk about her practice of going into the underworld to heal people, and her thousands of clients a year she helps.. As we continue, we focus on what modern magic means, reclaiming our truth, and walking between worlds with intention and love.Through her work at the Moon Temple Mystery School, Tahverlee creates spaces where people can explore their spiritual gifts, face their shadows, and emerge more whole. She's not just a teacher; she's a guide for anyone ready to honor the wildness of their spirit and the depth of their humanity.This episode is a journey through the real magic — the kind that moves through your veins, reshapes your perceptions, and reconnects you to the infinite. It's a conversation about remembering who we truly are and standing in that light, fully awake and sovereign. Drop in!Visit moontempleschool.com and tahverlee.com to learn more about her powerful workTahverlee Bio:Tahverlee is the heart and High Priestess of the Moon Temple Mystery School, guiding seekers through the mystical landscapes of self-discovery, witchcraft, empowerment, and spiritual awakening. Rooted in ancient wisdom and aligned with the wild, she bridges the mundane and the magical, empowering others to embrace their full power and sovereignty.A true Priestess of the Wild, Tahverlee walks with the fire of Athena in her veins, weaving threads of ancient mysteries and modern-day magic. She is a conduit between the underworld and the cosmos, creating bold spaces for others to evolve their voices and expand their consciousness. As a Ritualist, Initiate of the Sacred Way and the Eleusinian Rites, and a practitioner of the Celtic Mysteries, she works alongside a wise circle of fellow guides to offer transformative experiences and practices.As a mother, grandmother, and eternal student of life, Tahverlee intimately understands the challenges and triumphs of the human journey. Through her books, courses, and events, she shares the wisdom and transformative tools that have shaped her path, encouraging others to ignite their spiritual growth, craft their realities, and live in power.

Known for her deep research and personal experiences, Pat shines a light on a culture rich with history, tradition, and supernatural lore that has been passed down for generations.   The Appalachian Mountains are more than just rolling hills and winding roads—they are alive with stories. Pat O'Keefe has spent years preserving these tales, especially those of the **granny witches**—wise women of the mountains who carried with them a blend of herbal knowledge, folk magic, and spiritual practices that bridged the gap between the physical and unseen worlds. In this episode, she shares her passion for uncovering these stories and explains why the traditions of Appalachian magic are so important to preserve in our fast-moving modern world.   We dive into the heart of Pat's work and talk about: * **The legacy of Appalachian granny witches** – who they were, what they believed, and how they healed both body and soul. * **The intersection of folklore and the paranormal** – from ghostly apparitions in mountain hollers to unexplained lights in the woods. * **Pat's documentary work** – capturing the voices of locals who grew up hearing stories of spells, cures, omens, and encounters that defy logic. * **The role of faith, superstition, and nature** in shaping Appalachian spiritual practices. * How these traditions influence paranormal investigators and researchers today.   What makes Pat's storytelling so powerful is her connection to the land and the people. She doesn't just collect stories—she honors them. With warmth and authenticity, she explains how folklore has always been a way for Appalachian families to pass down wisdom, cope with hardship, and stay connected to the mysteries of life and death. For our listeners who love ghost stories, Pat also shares chilling accounts of haunted cabins, spectral figures along mountain paths, and eerie experiences that leave even seasoned investigators at a loss for explanation. But beyond the chills, this episode opens up a deeper conversation about belief, tradition, and the ways humans make sense of the unknown. If you've ever been fascinated by folk magic, mountain mysteries, or the idea that the veil between worlds is just a little thinner in certain places, this is an episode you won't want to miss.   Pat O'Keefe reminds us that the paranormal isn't always about high-tech equipment or big investigations—it's about listening to the voices of those who came before us, and understanding how they saw the world. In doing so, we keep those stories alive and maybe even open ourselves to new experiences with the unexplained.   So grab your headphones, settle in, and join us as we journey into the Appalachian hills with Pat O'Keefe on this week's *222 Paranormal Podcast*.

The War Within | Battling TraditionIn this kickoff to our powerful new series The War Within, we dive into one of the most overlooked internal enemies: tradition. While tradition can bring stability, it can also keep us stuck — spiritually, emotionally, and mentally. When we make a decision to follow God fully, we will be challenged — not just externally, but within ourselves.Pastor Trevon teaches us how to recognize when our habits, routines, or inherited beliefs are no longer aligned with God's purpose — and how they can block our transformation. Learn how tradition can substitute ritual for relationship, stifle vision, mask hypocrisy, and resist the Holy Spirit. It's time to break free and fight back with the Word and Spirit of God.Foundational Scripture: 1 Peter 2:11Topics in this series: Tradition, Religion, Offense, Idolatry, WitchcraftDon't stay stuck. God has more for you — but you have to wage the war within to win it.#TheWarWithin #BreakTradition #FaithOverFamiliar #HopeCathedral #SpiritualGrowth #ChristianLiving

Megyn Kelly reported that the Jezebel website hired witches on Etsy to curse Charlie Kirk just days before he was assassinated. Two days before the assassination, Jezebel published an article detailing the reasons why they hated Charlie Kirk, how to find a witch to cast a curse, and then chronicled how they hired a witch who attempted to unleash the forces of darkness on Charlie. The witch proved the spell was cast and stated it was successful. The night before Charlie was shot, he and his wife Erika, deeply troubled by these reports, prayed together with a friend regarding their concerns. After the assassination, Jezebel claimed the article was satire and removed it from the site. Etsy similarly removed the spell store of Priestess Lilin, who is referenced in the article as casting a spell. The witch is now using the publicity for profit as a false prophet. Can you really buy a curse online? Are curses real? What does the Bible say about this? Can Christians be cursed? How should Christians respond to witches among us? In this episode of Seers See Podcast, Doug and Emily take a deep dive into the modern fascination with witchcraft and curses—yes, even the ease of purchasing them on sites like Etsy. We unpack Priestess Lilin's claims of taking “responsibility” for the effectiveness of her curses. We further explore Scripture's teaching on curses, including the ancient concept of the “Evil Eye." Then we look at Jesus' surprising teachings on curses and how to respond to witches and others who may hate Christians, which turn the power of curses on its head.

Hammer horror reaches peak gothic chills with The Plague of the Zombies (1966), a Hammer Film Productions classic that defines British horror cinema. Shot at Bray Studios from 28 July 1965 and filmed back-to-back with Hammer's The Reptile (see episode 19), it used the same eerie Cornish village set designed by Hammer's celebrated production designer Bernard Robinson. Director John Gilling – the so-called “gentleman pig farmer” behind The Shadow of the Cat and The Mummy's Shroud – stages a story of graveyards, curses and the undead that became a template for Hammer zombie horror. Writer Peter Bryan, who joined Hammer Film Productions in 1948 as a camera operator before turning to screenwriting, provided the script and left the studio shortly after completing A Challenge for Robin Hood in 1967. When The Plague of the Zombies was submitted to the BBFC it was heavily trimmed: André Morell's Sir James Forbes originally decapitated a zombie with four shovel blows in the graveyard sequence, reduced to one for the censors. Heatherden Hall at Pinewood Studios doubles as the Forbes mansion, better known to James Bond fans as SPECTRE Island from From Russia With Love. Diane Clare, cast as Sylvia, had been one of the best-paid child “film babies” of the 1940s, appearing in The Ghosts of Berkeley Square and The Silver Fleet before leading roles in Hammer horror such as The Haunting, Witchcraft and The Hand of the Night. Her entire performance in The Plague of the Zombies was dubbed by South African actress Olive Gregg without her knowledge, a practice Hammer repeated when re-voicing Ingrid Pitt in Countess Dracula. André Morell himself had turned down both The Quatermass Experiment and Quatermass II on television before finally playing Professor Bernard Quatermass in the BBC's Quatermass and the Pit. When Hammer Film Productions made the feature version the role went to Andrew Keir. Morell also played O'Brien opposite Peter Cushing's Winston Smith in Nineteen Eighty-Four, Dr Watson in Hammer's Hound of the Baskervilles, voiced Elrond in Ralph Bakshi's The Lord of the Rings and appeared in Doctor Who. Quiz fans: Morell appeared in three films nominated for the Best Picture Oscar – can you name them? John Carson, born in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), plays Clive Hamilton. He spent time in Australia and New Zealand before settling in Britain, later featuring in Doctor Who's Snakedance, Tales of the Unexpected and Hammer House of Horror. IMDb longlists even connect him to Tobe Hooper's Lifeforce (episode 39) though he got none of the roles. With this episode we complete a Hammer horror hat-trick of his films: Captain Kronos (episode 51), Taste the Blood of Dracula (episode 60) and now The Plague of the Zombies. He later emigrated to South Africa with his second wife, Luanshya Greer – formerly Pamela Greer, who became a TV writer for Dixon of Dock Green, Thriller and Triangle. Dr Peter Tompson is played by Brook Williams, a lifelong friend of Richard Burton who appeared with him in Where Eagles Dare, The Wild Geese and The Sea Wolves. Michael Ripper appears as Sergeant Swift; Hammer's most prolific supporting actor with 33 Hammer Film Productions credits, seven films alongside Peter Cushing and nine with #BigChrisLee. Ripper also starred in all four original St Trinian's films, . For a deeper dive into Jacqueline “Servalan” Pearce, check back to our episode on The Reptile (episode 19). This discussion of The Plague of the Zombies cements its place as one of Hammer horror's boldest British horror releases of the 1960sSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/general-witchfinders.

"Mother Ramona" Torres was born in the 1960s in a Kalon campsite in Realengo, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Raised in a traditional Kalon Evoriana family, Ramona embodies the role of a Shuvanni—a spiritual guide, storyteller, and keeper of Romani magic and culture. Passionate about literature and mysticism from an early age, she began preserving her heritage through writing and teaching. Deeply devoted to Ramasordé—the spiritual path of her people—Ramona offers rituals, readings, and ceremonies rooted in Kalon wisdom. She began teaching at a time when sharing Romani magic publicly was rare, and became a respected figure in holistic and esoteric spaces across Brazil. With eloquence and vision, she invites others to honor Romani culture through love, celebration, and connection to the sacred. Ramona lives for the Ramasordé, which she sees as both her calling and her joy, and runs the spiritual center, Confraria Universalista ViAurum.Follow @luzdeevora on Instagram and Confraria Universalista ViAurum on Facebook.

As summer wanes and the nights grow long, we turn to tales of witches, curses, and the old ways that never truly died. For centuries, harvest time has carried its own magic: charms for fields, blessings for homes, and darker stories of those who bent nature to their will.This September, we step into that threshold where folklore meets fear. From ancient curses to infamous trials, from haunted ground to witches said still to walk among us… welcome to the Season of the Witch.In this episode, we share four creepy Reddit stories.The BOOKBY US A COFFEEJoin Sarah's new FACEBOOK GROUPSubscribe to our PATREONEMAIL us your storiesFollow us on YOUTUBEJoin us on INSTAGRAMJoin us on TWITTERJoin us on FACEBOOKVisit our WEBSITEStories:https://www.reddit.com/r/BackwoodsCreepy/s/kqbvjYfUo8https://www.reddit.com/r/BackwoodsCreepy/s/6suFbPRaDWhttps://www.reddit.com/r/skinwalkers/s/yBnKLpqDShttps://www.reddit.com/r/skinwalkers/s/DIdyN8zv9rThanks so much for listening, and we'll catch up with you again tomorrow!Sarah and Tobie xx"Spacial Winds" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/SURVEY Hosted on Acast.

In 1695, a small rural, farming community of southwest Scotland was shaken by strange events at the farmhouse of Ringcroft of Stocking. What began with the shuffling around of livestock, soon escalated into unexplained noises, stones thrown through the air and voices that no one could trace. Neighbors and ministers all flocked to witness the disturbances, but none could find a cause and no amount of prayers could bring peace to the household, who lived under siege for almost an entire month, before, as suddenly as it started, the disturbances stopped, leaving nothing but unanswered questions and a pile of smouldering ashes.SOURCES Telfair, Alexander (1695) A true relation of an apparition, expressions, and actings of a spirit which infested the house of Andrew Mackie, in Ringcroft of Stocking… .
