Ep 1298 | She Left a Movement She Once Believed Was Christian … Millions Still Belong

from Unashamed with the Robertson Family · host The Robertson Family

Jase, Al, and Zach on the growing cultural obsession with self-affirmation, “manifesting,” and the idea that truth comes from within, warning how these popular beliefs subtly replace God with self. They’re joined by author and Christian apologist Melissa Doherty, who shares her journey out of the New Thought movement and explains how feel-good spirituality can distort the Gospel while still sounding Christian. The guys relive their chaotic crawfish business that ended in blood poisoning and helped redirect their lives. They land on a powerful contrast between self-made truth and the light of Jesus, challenging listeners to consider whether they’re drawn to the light—or avoiding it.
