Is reincarnation real? Do our souls return again and again to “heal” and “evolve” — or is this a lie that keeps us from the truth of the Gospel?

In this episode of The Illuminated Woman, we pull back the veil on one of the New Age’s most enticing beliefs: reincarnation. You’ll learn how it subtly undermines the cross, keeps women trapped in cycles of self-effort, and contradicts the clear teaching of Scripture. We’ll also explore what the Bible says about eternal life — including a listener Q&A about what “the resurrection of the body” in the Apostles’ Creed really means (hint: it’s not reincarnation).

You’ll discover:

  • The New Age view of reincarnation and why it feels comforting at first — especially for those seeking meaning in suffering
  • The key Bible verses that refute past lives, including Hebrews 9:27 and 2 Corinthians 5:8
  • How reincarnation delays salvation and shifts the focus from Christ’s finished work to our own spiritual “progress”
  • The Biblical promise of the resurrection of the body — a one-time, eternal event that points to Christ’s victory over death

If you’ve believed in reincarnation or been drawn to ideas of past lives, this episode offers clarity, compassion, and the unshakable hope of the Gospel.

🎧 Listen now and share with another woman walking out of New Age beliefs who needs to hear the truth about reincarnation and the eternal life promised in Christ.

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
