The Enneagram has become a huge trend in the church…and it continues to gain traction. It is heavily marketed in Christian circles and endorsed by trusted leaders. However, the origins of the Enneagram are not ancient, psychology-based, or Christian. The following is a video by Marcia Montenegro (christiananswersforthenewage.org). She is an ex-astrologer and has become…

Spirit Guides and Channeled Material
In this post, I would like to share some information on spirit guides and channeled material (psychic readings, automatic or “divine” writing, etc…). As usual, I have had a difficult time trying to determine just how far down the “spiritual” rabbit hole I should go, so this post will actually be more of a compilation…
Where Did My Child Learn That?
Direct your children onto the right path, and when they are older, they will not leave it. Proverbs 22:6 NLT This post will probably not make me very popular; however, some disturbing things keep being brought to my attention and the longer I put off sharing them, the more unsettled I am. By the way, this…
The Dark Side of Meditation (What no one wants to talk about…)
I am finding that speaking negatively about meditation or yoga brings about a surprising amount of attack and vitriol…even from Christians. The fervor with which these practices are defended have led me to believe that the effects of meditation and yoga reach far beyond just “relaxation” and “exercise.” Could it be possible that there might…
Misunderstood Scripture in New Age/New Thought and Word of Faith
This is an EXCELLENT conversation on how New Age/New Thought/Law of Attraction and Word of Faith support their beliefs using Scripture out of context (this is not an exhaustive list)…and what those same passages mean IN CONTEXT. You may recognize many, if not all, of these verses. Have you ever used any of these verses…
The Gospel of Experience or The Gospel of Jesus Christ?
My heart is utterly grieved. I don’t even really know what to say. I have had to repent of SO MUCH, over the last couple of months. This isn’t the first time I have had the very foundation of what I believe in, shaken. When I turned from my New Age beliefs and returned to…
New Age or Christianity? Defining Our Terms
When trying to determine if something is Christianity or New Age, we need to understand what certain words and phrases mean. I’ve noticed that Satan likes to play with language to cause confusion and frustration (we see it in the news, everyday). As Christians, we are taught to disregard Satan’s lies and focus on the…
On the Rise – New Age Beliefs in the Church
I’m sharing something today, that I hope will begin some conversation about where we are as the Church – as the Body of Christ. While this post addresses issues found in the western church – North America, in particular – these beliefs and practices have a global reach. This is a video by Steven Bancarz…
Recent Changes and Future Plans
I’ve been away from both my blog, and social media, for a few months. It has been a season of change for me and my family, so a break was a necessary thing. I’m writing this as a quick update on what has been going on and to share a little about my plans for…
Poking the “Spiritual” Bear
I have started and stopped this post, what seems like a hundred times. There is so much I want to say, but I want to keep it clear and concise. I want to share what has been so heavy on my heart, but don’t want to go into too much detail, because that would actually…
