Welcome back to Living Free in Truth, where we pursue clarity in a culture of confusion and hold fast to God's Word in every area of life.
Today, we’re diving into a topic that’s become increasingly popular, even among believers, yet remains spiritually dangerous: crystal healing.
Maybe you’ve seen friends wearing crystal jewelry “for peace,” heard Christians talk about “cleansing energy,” or been offered a jade roller or rose quartz gift.
These things may seem harmless or even helpful, but what’s at the root?
Where did these practices come from, what do they actually mean spiritually, and most importantly, what does the Bible say? This isn’t about legalism, fear, or judgment. It’s about discernment, freedom, and loyalty to Jesus as our only true healer. If you’ve ever wondered, “What’s the harm?” or “Can’t I just use it for decoration?”, this episode is for you.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
