Sharing Your Testimony: A 4 Step Model (EP 16)
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 we should all be sharing it. Whether you share your testimony in a book, a podcast, on YouTube, with your Church or simply with a friend, I encourage you to find your voice and do it. Witnessing about what God has done in our lives is never wasted!

EVP Clip Only
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 will doing a future episode on the topic of paranormal investigation but wanted to make the clip available as a single download.

Prey for the Devil - Movie Review (EP 13)
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.

Toxic Femininity: A Catholic Perspective (EP 9)
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!

Are Crystals Evil? (EP 7)
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 possibly on the blog as well.

Catholicism on TV, Genre Fiction & Deliverance Prayer (EP 6)
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.

Holistic Wellness: A Catholic Nurse’s Perspective (EP 5)
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 is based on herbs which is wrong, wrong, wrong. I meant to say "some" - which I suspect most people already know. Hopefully I will get better with this in time!

Returning to the Church: My Testimony Part 2 (EP 3)
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 podcast. It wasn't done 'in-studio' and you can tell.
Part 1 of my testimony is available here.

New Age To Catholic Intro (EP 2)
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.

From New Age to Christian: My Testimony Pt 1 (EP 1)
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 Part 2 I will be talking about how my journey eventually led me back home to the Catholic faith.
Part 2 of my testimony is available here.
Please note: Future episodes will continue to talk about the New Age and occult under the name New Age To Catholic.
