Karma, Yoga, and New Age Practices in the Church

Karma, yoga, angel numbers, “good vibes,” manifesting, crystals, and “the universe” are everywhere in our culture, but are these New Age practices compatible with following Jesus, or are they quietly reshaping the church? In this episode of Rethink Revive, David Leake and Jordan Kolarik unpack the dangers of syncretism, how Hindu and New Age ideas slip into Christian language, and how to biblically “test the spirits.” If you’ve ever wondered whether things like karma, yoga, energy, frequencies, and manifestation are harmless or spiritually harmful, this conversation will help you discern what leads to freedom in Christ and what leads to deception.👉 Subscribe for weekly conversations on faith and cultureRethink Revive is a podcast where we carry on Pastor Jeff Leake’s legacy by having honest conversations about faith, leadership, grief, and navigating change in a rapidly shifting world. Whether we’re addressing cultural trends, spiritual questions, or everyday challenges of faith, our goal is simple: to help you think deeply, live faithfully, and experience renewal in God’s presence.
