That is where you can find freedom in your life.Eyes On The Right started when Amy first delved into conspiracy theories and made her first Instagram account.At that time, Amy had very conservative views politically. Now, she focuses on being biblically based and praying for the country's leaders.The "Right" part of the name is based on the Bible's symbolism of the right side.[08:38] How God Shifted Amy Back on the Right PathAmy grew up in a Christian home with a good family. However, during high school, she started down a path of rebellion away from God's plan for her.Through God's grace, she graduated, got a job, and began her career in teaching and ministry.However, Amy couldn't truly see the God-given blessings in her life and wasn't truly happy. She used alcohol to cope with the problems she faced.One day at the beach, she heard God's voice tell her to get up and go. Despite wanting to give up, Amy kept going until she got sober and let God renew her.Amy felt broken and hated her life. She thinks God pushed her back into the path He planned for her.[18:58] A Message For The StrugglingThe Enemy wants you alone, isolated, and struggling. However, that time will end, and you'll be able to move toward the life meant for you.[19:44] Amy: “But there comes a time when that ends and you need to get up and you need to start moving because you've got a life to live and God has a purpose for you. And those emotions and those feelings will catch up when you're obedient. God will get you there.”All you have to do is obey God and do what you can. Don't worry about the past or the future. Focus on today and keep your eyes on Him.God didn't create you to be a quitter. Don't give up.[21:25] How Amy Started Eyes On The RightEyes On The Right started when Amy's daughter encouraged her to create an Instagram page while getting sober.She started seeking “conspiracy theories,” patterns and truths hidden in the Bible. The first one she dived into was about biblical cosmology and the creation of Earth.As Amy dove deeper, she realized that there are many things in the world that Satan and his people use to manipulate others.Once you know this truth, you can see through these tricks and avoid falling for it. Amy chose to spread awareness about the Enemy's tricks to help others.[27:12] Reagan: “That's what the Enemy wants to do, steal, kill, and destroy our lives. And when we're aware of it, we can get our armor on and we can be protected from it as a fusion success.” [27:27] The Enemy In the Modern WorldYou need to be discerning and in a space where you can delve deeper into this truth. There has to be an internal conviction in Christ that can anchor us.There are secret societies like the Freemasons, the Templars, and more all over the world throughout biblical history.In today's world, many people in Hollywood continue to perpetuate the occult symbolism of secret societies. It was a way of mind control and idol worship for the public.Occult symbolism encourages the disobedience of God's word. It's visible in movies, concerts, and all over Hollywood and the nation.[32:09] Closing the Door On the EnemyThere are a lot of things happening that you can find on the internet, such as UFO sightings and secret projects. It's critical to be discerning about what's real and what isn't.One of these was the MK Ultra project, which focused on mind-controlling humans. These experiments were conducted on many people, including kids, prisoners, and more.At some level, everyone has been programmed and mind-controlled, which creates a door for the Enemy to come in and destroy our lives.[36:42] Amy: "Our society, and I'm sure many people listening can agree, has shifted dramatically. We are no longer discerning. We no longer are girded up and wise and, and sober-minded. We are the opposite of that."Many celebrities follow a pattern of starting as innocent and wholesome, then shifting slowly into occult symbolism.People who look up to them aren't aware of the shift and won't see the impact.[39:58] Choosing To Live Life From GodThe Enemy is holding you back from living the life God meant for you.We want to live a life that honors God and builds our relationship with Him. To do so, you must consistently do the work rather than only do what's convenient for you.Kids are more susceptible to occult symbolism.As the parent, it's up to you to be discerning and be aware to help protect them. Now that you know, do better.[44:08] The Scriptures as a FootholdAmy clings to the Scriptures as she lives her life. Many people may find them boring and difficult to read, but keeping an open mind is essential.She has recently finished reading Joshua and is currently studying Galatians.Verses from the Bible, especially Psalms and Proverbs, replenish Amy.[48:08] Amy's Plan Moving ForwardAmy feels like it's time to grow and nourish something new.Her focus is a niche. At the start, many people judged her work and the new information it brought forward. Amy simply stays patient.She wants to step away from symbolism and tie it back to God and the truth in His Word.About AmyAmy is an educator, counselor, speaker, and Bible teacher who helps others deepen their understanding of the Scripture. She is also the podcast host of Eyes On The Right, where she delves into and reveals the truth of secret societies, occult symbolism, Hollywood, and more in today's world.

Fr. Mike explains why all of us are called to listen to the prophets of the Old Testament, and why their role is so important in salvation history. Each of us is building some kind of life and picture of eternity: the question we must ask ourselves is are we building it with God or against him? Today's readings are 2 Kings 8, Hosea 8-10, and Psalm 108. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.

A spiritual experience is closer to many than they might think — especially for the faithful. As the spiritual realm gains traction in both pop culture and faith circles, believers are increasingly asking: Is this stuff real, and how do I discern truth from fiction? While some dismiss demons, exorcism, deliverance, and the supernatural as outdated myths, countless Christians continue to share real stories of both oppression and miraculous freedom. In a world where Ouija boards are marketed as toys and TikTok teems with spiritual influencers, navigating truth from deception isn't just cultural—it's deeply personal, often painful, and undeniably hopeful.In this episode of Revelations Podcast, host Reagan Kramer sits down with Ryan Bethea, producer and host of The Exorcist Files, as well as co-host of the new podcast Heaven Meets Earth. Ryan's exploration into Catholic exorcisms and modern-day miracles offers an unparalleled look into how spiritual warfare manifests today. As a Protestant gaining insights from Catholic traditions, and through deeply researched narrative storytelling, Ryan brings humility, humor, and serious theological weight to one of the most misunderstood and scarcely discussed topics in Christianity.Be equipped with a fresh, Spirit-led perspective and practical tools to understand the realities of spiritual warfare, what deliverance looks like in real life, and how God still works through miracles today. This episode is for curious skeptics, discerning believers, and anyone hungering for more of God's power and presence.Here are three reasons why you should listen to this episode:Explore real-life encounters with demonic forces and the process of exorcism in both Catholic and Protestant contexts through the lens of spiritual warfare.Gain insight into how miraculous healing and supernatural intervention point to God's faithfulness through a spiritual experience in the modern day.Reflect on how to discern spiritual attack from psychological or circumstantial hardship—and find wisdom for your own spiritual battles.Become Part of Our Mission!

A spiritual experience can happen to anyone who believes.[05:50] Reagan's Personal Story and Connection to "The Exorcist"Reagan shares her personal story, revealing that her name is from the movie "The Exorcist."Reagan was scared when she watched the movie, but eventually became an evangelist.God uses various means to bring people to Him. The spiritual experience leading you to God may be through a movie or a personal experience.Ryan mentions the book "The Exorcist Files," which captures the gaslighting experienced by exorcists, and how it mirrors the themes in their podcast.[08:52] Exorcisms and Spiritual WarfareRyan shares his witness to a colleague's overt manifestation in a ministry setting, describing it as a strange and rare experience.There is, however, plausible deniability in miracles. God leaves room for faith.Recognizing the attacks of the Enemy can be challenging, which amplifies the importance of discernment in spiritual warfare.[15:25] Ryan: “Paul's constantly reminding us, Hey, you have an Adversary. Don't be scared, but be alert.”[19:10] The Role of Prayer and Spiritual DiscernmentRyan's co-host Abby takes a spirit-led approach to life and decision-making, including praying about everyday choices.Abby's posture of prayer and discernment inspired him to submit more of his decisions to God."Lead with Prayer" by Ryan Skoog highlights the importance of prayer in making decisions.As Christians, we must trust God's timing and be open to His guidance in all aspects of life.[21:1] Ryan: “You hear all these stories; miracles happen. They're rare by definition. They're miracles. These are not common experiences, and they take all shapes and sizes.”[24:37] Heaven Meets Earth: A Spiritual Experience“Heaven Meets Earth” had diverse guests from different faiths, which gave them a broad perspective. However, the focus was on miracles and spiritual experiences."Heaven Meets Earth" podcast had a powerful and positive impact, and even helped heal or encourage its listeners through difficult times.It would help people to normalize spiritual experiences and provide a platform for people to share their stories.Miracles happen all the time — even today in our lives. We just have to be open to God's work.[31:08] Mary and Spiritual ApparitionsGod is not the sole source of spiritual encounters. Mary also comes to people with spiritual experiences and apparitions.Ryan shares a story about a friend who received a message from Mary during a difficult time, which brought her comfort and healing.Marian apparitions have great historical significance, such as Lady of Guadalupe and Fatima. Their impact on the faith of people worldwide is undeniable.It's critical that we remain open to spiritual experiences and the role of the saints in interceding for us.[37:12] Spiritual Experience in the Modern EraTrust God's timing and be open to His guidance in all aspects of life.Spiritual experiences can come from anywhere — even a podcast.[44:54] Ryan: “Keep your eyes open, see what God's up to. He's always sneakily doing something.”We must continue to share our faith and experiences to those open to hearing.About Ryan BetheaRyan Bethea is a dynamic storyteller, media producer, and spiritual investigator whose work bridges the worlds of faith, mystery, and modern-day miracles. As the creator and host of The Exorcist Files and co-host of Heaven Meets Earth with Abigail Robertson, Ryan brings biblical insight and narrative excellence to the frontlines of spiritual warfare and deliverance.

Fr. Mike emphasizes the importance of knowing God and knowing his love for us as we read about the devastation of war and the lack of faith displayed by Israel. Without a deeper knowledge of God, not only can we struggle for hope in God's plan, but we can also fall into the temptation of losing faith in him altogether. Today's readings are 2 Kings 6-7, Hosea 4-7, and Psalm 103. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.
