In this powerful episode, we sit down with Christa Black, a former Christian recording artist who toured with Michael W. Smith and the Jonas Brothers for over a decade. Christa shares her shocking journey from representing the global bride of Christ at "The Call" stadium event to losing everything in Costa Rica through plant medicine ceremonies.After years as a successful Christian author and speaker, Christa found herself drawn into the New Age world through seemingly innocent concepts like manifestation and energy healing. What began with small compromises eventually led to ayahuasca and wachuma ceremonies, where she encountered false spirits, including a being claiming to be Satan who asked her to "advocate for him before the Father."Christa reveals the sophisticated deception tactics of the enemy, how plant medicine creates spiritual "loans" that must eventually be repaid, and the legal authority given to dark entities through these practices. She explains the difference between legitimate spiritual gifts and their New Age counterfeits, and how fallen angel technology has been downloaded through indigenous plant ceremonies.Most importantly, Christa shares her dramatic rescue story - how God orchestrated her return to faith through a 16-year-old bracelet and the very songs from her wedding day. Now back in relationship with Jesus, she uses her authority from having been "in their camps" to pray for others trapped in deception.This episode serves as both a warning about the growing mainstream acceptance of psychedelics and a testimony of God's relentless pursuit of His people, no matter how far they've fallen.
