Have you ever questioned God’s goodness in a season of waiting? Felt shame so deep you couldn’t pray? Believed a lie so subtle you didn’t even recognize it as deception?
In this powerful episode of Born to be a Butterfly, host Nina Pajonas dives deep into the tactics of the enemy—and how he uses distortion, isolation, and shame to lead us away from God. Drawing from Matthew 4:1–11 and the story of Jesus in the wilderness, Nina unpacks how Satan twists truth, targets our identity, and tempts us to doubt the Father’s love.
You’ll learn how to recognize spiritual manipulation and strengthen your discernment in a world full of lies. If you’ve ever felt spiritually confused, emotionally drained, or mentally trapped by negative thoughts, this episode is for you!
