from RISE RADIO – Christian Faith Discussions & Social Narratives · host rseonline.org

Tonight we are joined by Doreen Virtue, who spent 20 years working as a 'New Age Guru' and appeared on TV shows such as Oprah, CNN and The View. After writing 50 books on new thought and spiritualism, Doreen became a household name and mentor to many.During this time of her life, Doreen believed she was communicating with an "Angel of Light" called Michael, and became deeply involved in the occult, divination, mediumship, reiki healing, tarot cards, and was the author of the first book on Angel Numbers (which some celebrities such as Katy Perry and Lady Gaga still use today).But something profound happened in Doreen Virtue's life in 2014, when she read the Bible and heard the Gospel preached on the radio.For the first time she felt a conviction and discernment that what she was involved in was 'serious sin' and turned her back on everything that her brought her fame and fortune for so many years. She threw away her new age paraphernalia, and urged her followers to burn the books she had written.This sent shockwaves in the new age community. But with some women also abandoning their involvement in occult practises after seeing Doreen's transformation and testimony.In this episode of RISE Radio Podcast we cover:- Doreen's experiences in Hollywood- What 'New Age Religion' really means- Different forms of satanic practises in false spirituality- Why many people get involved in the False Light- What changed Doreen's mind about Jesus- Social narratives in our cultureFor more information, please read the FREE ebook, “From Counterfeit to Christ” at the Kindle Unlimited store for FREE at https://a.co/d/bzlSCinSend a text to the RISE PodcastSubscribe to Rise Radio on your favourite podcast platform for regular episodes which look into the end times, world events, discernment of spiritual agendas, guest interviews and Biblical truth.Support the show
