Unknowingly Under Demonic Forces: Why Christians Must Stop Practicing Yoga - Michal Russo 29.05.2026 27min

When she was left jobless, homeless, and abandoned nearly overnight, Michal Russo realized that she had been ignoring some serious red flags about her lifestyle. God got her attention in a major way, and she promised to cast off all the stumbling blocks in her life, including her daily practice of yoga. Michal is the marketing director for TCT Network, and shares her powerful testimony - a trial by fire that opened her eyes to the dangers of mysticism, eastern religions, and the insidious influence of bloodthirsty, destructive false gods. She opens up about why she ignored yoga’s red flags and the justification behind it, how God called her out of this false religion, and why it’s so easy to get sucked into yoga practices. If you’re currently practicing yoga, it may be hard to stop, but it’s much more painful to suffer under the thumb of demonic forces.

Ex Yogini Warns Yoga Deeply Rooted in Worship of False Gods, Divination - Michal Russo 28.05.2026 27min

Michal Russo was a pastor’s daughter and an athletic college swimmer when she discovered yoga. Squeaky clean and hardworking, she wasn’t the rebellious type, but yoga, she says, opened the door to dark and oppressive forces in her life. Today, Michal is the marketing director for TCT Network and the author of How Yoga Harms: A Love Letter for Understanding Yoga From a Christian Perspective. She explains key teachings and practices of yoga, which are deeply rooted in the worship of false gods and divination. Michal also highlights a startling but convicting truth: when you open up your mind to something in spirit and in truth, you’re worshiping it, whether you want to admit it or not! Don’t worship the false gods of yoga, look to Christ as your Savior.

Link Between Swastika’s Four Paths of Yoga and Hitler’s Nazi Ideology - Dr. Alana Arguello 27.05.2026 27min

The yoga practices of ancient times are the same yoga practices that are used today. Dr. Alana Arguello discusses this dangerous philosophy that produces various forms and practices, not always called yoga, but all of which are sorcery, aka mind magic, word magic, and body magic. Alana is a scholar, author, and podcast host of The Returning Raven. She breaks down the meaning behind yoga hand signals, phrases, and poses. Everything about yoga is designed to push you closer toward accepting yourself as a “god” and to change you into its worldview, which is a panentheistic eastern false view of god, one that is a direct counter against the biblically described true God. The music and repetitious nature of yoga are also designed to halt critical thinking and induce an altered state of consciousness.

Yoga’s Roots, Practices is Today’s Modern Church ‘Snake in the Grass’ - Dr. Alana Arguello 26.05.2026 27min

Yoga. Is it a simple stretching routine, or is it something far more sinister? Dr. Alana Arguello describes yoga as a “snake in the grass” or a “sniper” waiting to strike. Alana is a highly educated author and apologist who has spent years studying the ancient roots of yoga, which predates the birth of Hinduism. She says the deception about yoga is much bigger than most people realize. It causes many spiritual side effects, like anxiety, depression, and dissociation. It is not a harmless exercise but rather a deceptive spiritual practice rooted in panentheism and idolatrous paganism, Alana argues. She explains how the seemingly harmless practice of yoga has been sold to Americans, particularly women, through the elite Luciferian occult, healing arts, and the entertainment industry.

God has always had a plan to redeem humanity, and you can read all about it in the Bible! The Word of God is a beautiful and continuous story that begins in the Garden of Eden and culminates with the prophetic return of Christ. This singular storyline is often misunderstood when the Bible is broken up into tiny, separate stories. This confusion is a mess that Marian Jordan Ellis has sought to clarify and make easier for the believer to understand. In her devotional, Garden to Garden: Through the Bible from Eden to Eternal Paradise, she beautifully takes readers on a 30-day journey that explains how each piece of the Bible fits together to form a beautiful portrait of God’s redemption story. Marian was inspired to write this devotional after seeing so many new Christians struggle with the enormity and perceived complexity of studying the Bible.

Immersing Yourself in Scripture Brings Deep Renewal and Spiritual Strength - Susan Lim 20.05.2026 27min

You’ve heard it said a thousand times: read your Bible! The question that many Christians may have, even after hearing this instruction from the pulpit repeatedly, is why? Susan Lim, a highly educated historian and writer, has the answer. We cannot be like Jesus if we don’t spend time with Him. We will never progress on our journey of sanctification - becoming more Christlike - if we don’t study His Word for ourselves. Susan decries the dangers of a results-driven society and why it’s so important to make the time to study Scripture, as it is the guiding light of the Christian life and the lens through which every believer should view the world. God will come through for you in ways you could never imagine! Susan also tackles pressing questions like: Is the Bible totally authoritative? What is a Biblical canon? And how can we read the Bible if we don’t understand everything in it?

How the Names and Attributes of God Transform Your Relationship With Him - Ava Pennington 19.05.2026 27min

Who is God? The nature and the character of God form the foundation of how we view Him, so it is integral that we, as Christians, understand what God says about Himself. Ava Pennington says that without understanding this, a Christian’s foundation is shaky and runs the risk of moving in the wrong direction. Ava is a Bible teacher, author, and speaker who has spent tremendous time studying the many names and attributes of God. She emphasizes studying who God says He is, not what the world says He is or who we think He should be. In her devotional, Reflections on the Name of God, she asks three key questions: what does God say about Himself, how do God’s attributes change our relationship with Him, and how does it change our relationships with other people?

Unlocking the Supernatural Secrets of God’s Spiritual Universe - Joel Muddamalle 08.05.2026 27min

When was the last time you heard a sermon preached about the Divine Council or the angelic stewards of ancient times? Chances are, you haven’t. These supernatural elements within the Bible are often skipped or dodged by modern churches, but not by Dr. Joel Muddamalle, a theologian and author. He discusses Deuteronomy 32, as well as other references to angels, the Divine Council, and God’s scattering of the human nations. Joel connects the dots between the Old Testament and the New Testament, clearly giving explanations about angels, demons, and more by digging into the Word of God. Joel also issues a warning about exploring spiritual topics: keep Christ at the center of everything and remain sober-minded (1 Peter 5:8).

Spiritual Realm, Dark Powers and the Real Reason for Global Division - Joel Muddamalle 07.05.2026 27min

An unseen battle rages all around us: a spiritual war between the two families within God’s house. Dr. Joel Muddamalle carefully explains this Biblical cosmic worldview, cutting through the noise of conspiracies, in his theological book, The Unseen Battle: Spiritual Warfare, the Three Rebellions, and Christ’s Victory Over Dark Powers. Based heavily on his dissertation at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, Joel’s book was overseen by the famed Dr. Michael Heiser. In it, Joel discusses the reality of the spiritual realm, moving it from the hypothetical to the forefront of everyday life. Christians have the answers to burning spiritual questions in today’s confused society, Joel says. Spirits? Supernatural events? Cosmic phenomenon? The Bible explains everything, and we must be prepared to give an answer.

Extensive Research Suggests Amorites Built Ancient Ohio Burial Mounds - Fritz Zimmerman 06.05.2026 27min

In the Bible, the Amorites are an ancient, Canaanite people, described as extremely powerful warriors who clashed often with the Israelites in the Old Testament. Believe it or not, the Amorites may have had a settlement beyond the Middle East. According to Fritz Zimmerman, an explorer and writer, the Amorites were likely the advanced tribe behind the mysterious and extremely complex Ohio Mounds and earthworks, thought to be thousands of years old. These ancient burial mounds have been found to hold skeletons, as well as cremated remains. Fritz describes the advanced mathematics that would have gone into creating these earthworks. He also compares unusual human skulls found in Stonehenge to seemingly identical skulls found in Ohio. How did the Amorites end up in North America? Some were scattered there after the Flood, Fritz notes, and absorbed into the Dakota, a Native American tribe within the broader Sioux.

Tennessee Town Takes Stand Against Telecom Giants and Stops 5G Rollout - Mike Mitchell 29.04.2026 27min

When the small town of Farragut, Tennessee, was threatened with a corporate tidal wave of deadly 5G cell towers in their front yards, the citizens fought back. Mike Mitchell led the charge, even as the mayor and vice mayor of the city refused to allow citizens inside the Town Hall to voice their protestations. Mayor Ron Williams closed the Farragut town hall using Covid as an excuse, refused to let residents speak at all, and restricted them to email communication only. Mike and his fellow citizens didn’t give up! He worked with the Environmental Health Trust, a non-profit organization dedicated to identifying emerging environmental hazards and fighting to protect safe communities. Together, they were able to halt the onslaught of 5G and its harmful radiation, but Farragut’s local tyranny remains.

5G Cell Towers Emit Deadly, DNA-Altering Radiation, Says Telecoms Expert - Odette Wilkins 28.04.2026 1min

5G cell towers are rapidly spreading, promising increased speed of wireless telecommunications and supposedly tightening worldwide wireless pathways. But there is a dark side to this technology - it’s not really meant for communication between humans! “5G is meant for industrial use and machine-to-machine communication,” says Odette Wilkens, President & General Counsel of Wired Broadband, Inc. Odette explains the ever-searching, invisible radiation beams of 5G and how wireless technology, including 5G, harmfully intersect with the human body. This technology is so dangerous, in fact, that it is currently used as a military weapon, called “Active Denial” as a form of crowd control. Additionally, wireless radiation, such as from 5G, reacts with any metals in the body, including medical implants, such as a pacemaker.
