Episodes

May 12, 2023 8 mins

In this episode, I talk about my new course of study - God's holy angels - and the reality of our personal guardian angel. I also talk about the direction this is taking in terms of my upcoming content and share a great resource for further study OpusAngelorum.org (I mistakenly said dot com in the video). 

Future episodes of the podcast will be focusing on what I'm learning about the holy angels, so please check back for more!

The Pope's Exorcist with Russell Crowe was a typical Hollywood movie with over the top special effects. But it did get some things about exorcism right, and was not a bad movie over all. In this podcast, I share my views on the movie and on exorcism and Fr. Gabriele Amorth, upon whom the film was loosely based.

In this episode I talk about how and why you should share your testimony about coming (or returning) to the Faith. I also share the four step model St. Paul used when he shared his testimony in Acts 22 and how you can adapt that model to your own story. Learning about St. Paul's method was timely for me because I am writing a short ebook about my experience in the New Age and occult but I believe that everyone has a story and that ...

This is a single word EVP recording that has not been manipulated or altered in any way. To most people, it sounds like the word 'good' pronounced with a German accent. What is interesting about this EVP, is that the voice (near the end of the recording) seems to commenting on the human conversation that precedes it. I found the quality of the voice telling, too. If I had to guess at how a demon might sound, this would be it. I wil...

On the surface the film Prey for the Devil is about exorcism and the (superior) power of a female exorcist but there are other subtler points made that are worth looking at. To me, there are other anti-Catholic themes in this movie that are almost subliminal in delivery. It's worth considering, in my opinion, why this is.

In this episode I talk about the concept of a Catholic "Rule of Life" and how that concept is directly opposed by the teachings of occultists like Aleister Crowley and Gerald Gardener.  Topics covered include what a Rule of Life is, how have a rule can help us withstand the many influences of popular culture.

In this episode I talk about the book The Anti-Mary Exposed by Carrie Gress and the topic of toxic femininity in my own experience. This book does a great job of presenting the dark history of feminism, the impact toxic femininity has had on our culture and the many issues with goddess worship. And I agree with all of it!

Crystals are hugely popular in New Age and occult circles. But while "working with" crystals may seem harmless or even silly, the truth is that crystals have real occult applications. In this video, I talk about the dark side of crystals and why I believe they are dangerous based on my own personal experience. Please note: I don't feel I explained this as well as I should have but promise to go into more detail in the ebook and pos...

In this episode I talk about how Catholicism is portrayed on two popular TV shows I've watched and how this helped convince me that Catholics SHOULD be involved in the entertainment industry. I also talk about how Catholic exorcist Monsignor Stephen Rossetti's recent deliverance prayer webinar helped me gain clarity.

Is holistic wellness compatible with the Catholic Faith? Or is it just another type of new age deception? In this video I share my perspective as a Catholic nurse and ex-new ager. PLEASE NOTE: I sometimes get a little rattled when I do videos (especially when my pup is barking at me through the door) and make mistakes. In this one I said hypotension instead of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) TWICE. I also said "most" toxic medicine ...

I decided to kick off my new podcast by sharing two podcasts from my old show - part one and two of my testimony.  This episode shares the 2nd half of my testimony about leaving the New Age and occult and returning to my Catholic faith.  Part 1 focuses a bit more about my background, while this part talks about how God brought me back to the faith.  Both parts share on modern day occultism.  My apologies for the audio on this podca...

I left the New Age and occult in 2017 but I didn't return to my Catholic Faith immediately.  Instead like many ex-new agers, I became involved in the Evangelical "New Age To Christianity" movement.  In this introductory episode I talk about why I began this podcast and some of the topics I'll be covering.

I decided to kick of my new podcast by sharing two podcasts from my old show - part one and two of my testimony.  Since I plan to talk about spiritual warfare and the occult in the podcast, I think that makes sense.  This is part one.  I recorded it when I was hosting my previous podcast in 2018.   In it, I talk about my experience in the New Age and occult and  my personal journey from modern day occultism to Christianity.  In Par...
