There's a scattering happening - and it's not just political division. Christians are fracturing against Christians, conservatives against conservatives, liberals against liberals. We're weaker when we're disconnected this way. And into that chaos, the enemy is offering counterfeits that look like enlightenment, empowerment, and spiritual exploration.
I'm watching believers casually engage in tarot, crystals, moon rituals, and manifestation practices - thinking it's harmless, thinking it's "just fun." But make no mistake: this is strategic enemy warfare, not cultural drift.
In this episode, we're talking about:
This one's convicting. But I hope it's also clarifying and empowering. Because when you're rooted in Christ, you don't have to fear the storm.
PLUS: I'm announcing the podcast rebrand! Beginning of December, we're officially becoming The Wednesday Podcast: Faith, Mind & Mystery. Same heart, new name.

Is it the Holy Spirit, anxiety, or trauma? How do you tell the difference between spiritual discernment and hypervigilance? Between a word from God and intrusive thoughts? This week Christina tackles the question everyone's asking but few are answering honestly: how do we discern what our bodies are telling us when we're both biological beings AND spiritual beings? Drawing from her background as a mental health professional and EMDR practitioner, and sharing vulnerably from her own journey of needing BOTH spiritual healing and clinical support, she offers a both/and framework that honors the complexity of being human. No easy answers, no pat formulas - just practical tools for discernment, permission to be complex, and hope that God meets you in the mess.
Topics: Somatic wisdom, spiritual gifts, mental health discernment, trauma and the body, EMDR, the Holy Spirit, anxiety vs. spiritual warfare, therapy and deliverance, body as temple
It's October 31st. While darkness gathers, so do we. This is your 10-minute call to arms—a guided prayer and encouragement to send you out as the warrior you were called to be. You're not alone. Thousands of believers are waking up to the same call. Together, we're unified. Together, we're taking ground. You have authority. Now go use it.
Topics: Halloween prayer, spiritual warfare, taking authority, unified prayer, spiritual battle, intercession, protection prayer, spiritual covering, authority in Jesus' name
October 31st isn't just about candy and costumes. While actual evil gathers—real witches, real spells, real spiritual warfare—where is the church? Christina breaks down what's actually happening on Halloween, why Christians have been lulled to sleep, and the urgent call to stop sitting on the sidelines. This isn't a debate about trunk-or-treats. This is a call to arms. You have authority. It's time to use it.

What if the enemy is lulling you to sleep spiritually so he can attack you when you're physically asleep?
Sleep paralysis. Shadow figures. The hat man. Night terrors. Are they neurological or spiritual—or both?
Christina shares her teen experience with demonic harassment and how worship and authority in Jesus' name brought freedom. This episode explores why the enemy targets sleep, what "surrendering to darkness" gets wrong, and the practical tools you need to take spiritual authority over your rest.
You don't have to live in fear of the dark. You carry the name of Jesus. You have authority. It's time to use it.
We are in a war—but the victory is already won.

The enemy's best lies look like truth. They promise healing, wholeness, and connection to the divine - which is exactly why so many people, including believers, end up walking straight into deception. This week Christina exposes how ancient demons have rebranded for the modern age: spirit guides, goddess worship, kundalini awakening, and the "divine feminine" movement. Drawing from Dr. Michael Heiser's framework and biblical demonology, showing you exactly how they operate today. From therapy offices to TikTok to church, these entities are active and they're deceptive. But here's the good news: once you know the patterns, you can't unsee them. Expect challenging truth, practical discernment tools, and a firm charge to guard your gates.
Topics: The slippery slope into New Age, territorial spirits vs. demons, naming Baal/Molech/Lilith/Asherah/Jezebel, spirit guides exposed, testing spirits, guarding your heart.
What if everything you thought you knew about ghosts was wrong? This week Christina tackles one of the most misunderstood topics in both Christian and secular circles: what are people actually encountering when they experience "hauntings," shadow figures, or visits from deceased loved ones? Drawing from Scripture and even the Catholic Church's exorcism protocols, we're exploring the line between familiar spirits and mental health crises. Spoiler: it's not Grandma. Expect biblical depth, clinical nuance, and a whole lot of discernment. Plus: why believers have nothing to fear.
Topics: Ghosts vs. demons, Nephilim origins, the nature of demons, mental health vs. spiritual oppression, and why Romans 1 explains everything.

What if worship isn't just singing songs on Sunday - what if it's actually rewiring your brain and fighting spiritual battles? This week Christina dives into the fascinating intersection of neuroscience and spiritual warfare, exploring what happens in your brain during sustained worship and prayer. From endorphins to theta waves, from the throne room of heaven to the battlefield we're standing on - this episode unpacks why the Lord inhabits the praise of His people and what that means for how we fight.
Topics covered: the neurochemistry of worship, optimal prayer times for maximum benefit, how worship creates space for God's presence, biblical examples of worship as warfare, testing spirits and discerning angels, and why we might need to reclaim worship from comfortable Sunday routines back to its raw, powerful roots.
Challenge: Spend 20 minutes in sustained worship this week and watch what shifts.
In this episode, Christina reintroduces herself and dives deep into two crucial topics for believers today: discerning what we consume spiritually and understanding God's mysterious revelations about the end times.
We're exploring why testing the spirits of our media consumption is more critical than ever, especially as cultural trauma reveals the spiritual battle happening around us. Christina shares the hidden genius behind Revelation's symbolic language and why John had to write it in code to protect the message from Roman authorities. You'll discover how mindless scrolling is actually spiritual warfare and what it means to feed your soul with truth instead of digital poison.
The episode also covers insights about Mystery Babylon, the legal boundaries that even Satan must operate within, and God's incredible move in today's youth. Christina reminds us that we were chosen to be here at this exact moment in history for a purpose, and she'll ignite your excitement about what God is revealing in these last days.
This episode will challenge how you think about current events, encourage you to examine what you're feeding your soul, and help you understand that Revelation is the only book in the Bible that promises a blessing just for reading it.
Scripture Focus: John 15:5, Joel 2:28, Revelation 1:3
