Biblical Confession vs New Age Affirmations
In this episode of Set Free: Life After New Age, we explore the power of our words through the lens of Isaiah 55 and the difference between biblical faith declarations and New Age affirmations. The world teaches that words create reality through self-power and manifestation, but Scripture teaches that God's Word is the true seed that produces life, transformation, and fruit when planted in our hearts and spoken in faith. We'll unpack what it means to meditate on Scripture, hide God's Word in your heart, and speak truth from a place of surrender rather than control. This conversation will help you discern the difference between declaring God's promises in faith and trying to use words to manipulate outcomes. If you're coming out of manifestation culture, affirmation practices, or New Thought spirituality, this episode will bring clarity, healing, and a deeper understanding of the authority and purpose of God's Word.

How Covenant Makes Us Confident in God's Promises
In this episode of Set Free: Life After New Age, we dive into the powerful meaning of covenant and why understanding God's covenant changes the way we trust His promises. Looking closely at Genesis 15, we unpack the unconditional covenant God made with Abram and how it reveals His faithfulness, mercy, and commitment to fulfill what He speaks. So many believers struggle with fear, striving, and uncertainty—but covenant reminds us that God's promises are not built on human perfection, but on His unchanging character. We'll explore how covenant gives us confidence in seasons of waiting, strengthens our faith when circumstances feel impossible, and points us ultimately to Jesus and the fulfillment of God's redemptive plan. If you've ever questioned whether God will really come through for you, this episode will encourage you to anchor your hope in the faithfulness of God rather than your own ability.

Social Media Addiction, Doublemindedness, and God's Call to Step Away
In this episode of Set Free: Life After New Age, I share why I'm starting a social media fast inspired by The 40-Day Social Media Fast and how God convicted me about the subtle addiction of constant scrolling. I open up about how social media was draining my focus, dulling my creativity, and slowly shaping my thoughts more than I realized. We talk about God's call for believers to be thermostats, not thermometers — to set the spiritual temperature rather than absorb what the world is constantly offering. This conversation isn't about legalism or quitting social media forever, but about regaining clarity, creativity, and intimacy with the Lord. If you've felt distracted, creatively blocked, or spiritually numb, this episode may be an invitation to step back, refocus, and let God reset your heart.

New Thought 'God Qualities' vs Biblical Truth About God
In this episode of Set Free: Life After New Age, I unpack the major differences between Science of Mind "god qualities" and the God revealed in the Bible. New Thought teachings describe God as an impersonal force, energy, or universal principle that you can direct through thought. Scripture describes God as a personal, holy, sovereign Creator who cannot be manipulated and who invites us into relationship, not self-actualization. If you've ever been part of Science of Mind, New Thought, or manifestation-based spirituality, this episode will bring biblical clarity, expose subtle deception, and reveal the beauty of knowing the one true God.

From Manifestation to Prayer: Surrendering Control to God

Why Does the Battle Feel Worse After Getting Saved?
Have you ever wondered why life sometimes feels harder after you gave your life to Jesus? In this episode of Set Free: Life After the New Age, we unpack the spiritual reality behind the warfare that often intensifies when someone leaves deception and starts walking with Christ. Here's what you'll discover: The truth about spiritual battle — Why following Jesus places a target on your back and how Ephesians 6 reveals the armor God gives you to stand firm. The enemy's real mission — Satan only comes to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), and he will do everything he can to discourage new believers who just left his grip. Why Satan is a legalist — Understanding how the enemy looks for open doors, past agreements, or unrepented sin to gain access, and how you can close those doors through the authority of Christ. If you've been feeling attacked, overwhelmed, or confused since leaving the New Age, this episode will encourage you and equip you with biblical truth. The battle is real, but victory is guaranteed in Jesus. Website: www.anne-livingston.com IG: @savedbytheword

How Jesus set me free from the New Age
Here's my testimony from getting sucked into New Age spirituality through network marketing and professional development to getting saved by Jesus. I share some vulnerable moments of the rejection I experienced when first getting saved, the massive spiritual warfare, and how Jesus ultimately set me free and delievered me. I have had former New Agers come to me and share their struggles with me and feeling like no one understands what they are walking through once they get saved and the battles they face. If nothing else, I am here to share that you are not alone, the warfare is real, and there is true freedom in Christ available. Website YouTube Instagram
