Most near-death experiencers see the light. Steve Kang went the other direction."There were demons everywhere. Three-to-four stories tall with capes and weapons. I knew they were in charge of this place called hell."
Raised Buddhist, dedicated to becoming a monk, praying eight hours daily—Steve had his spiritual life figured out. Then a laced drug at a party kept him awake for ten straight days. Buddhist artifacts started making poltergeist noises. A voice claiming to be his god offered a deal: kill yourself for a better afterlife. So he did.
During surgery after his suicide attempt, Steve landed in a place Buddhists don't believe exists: hell. Crowded. Dark with no sun. A purplish-red wasteland with massive demons and torture cages. And the certain knowledge: "I'm going to be here forever." 
But that wasn't the end of the story. As he was fighting for his life and experiencing the realities of hell, eight Christian ministers showed up to pray for a Buddhist kid they'd never met. In those moments, Steve shares how Jesus appeared to him in hell, offering love and rescue when he least deserved it. In this unbelievable story of salvation and redemption, Steve gets a second chance at life. His encounter became the turning point that not only saved him from death but also transformed his entire understanding of God, salvation, and purpose. Today, Steve shares his story as a testament to the reality of the afterlife and the radical love that pursues us even in our darkest moments.

"You're being manipulated, and you don't even know it." Jesse Carey, writer and producer of the new audio docuseries PSYOP hosted by Shawn Ryan, blows the whistle on the psychological operations shaping modern culture. The series examines how psyops function at scale, not just in government black ops but in everyday news, social media, and entertainment. These manipulations exploit how we process information: we're tribal, emotional, confirmation-bias-prone creatures who prefer narratives reinforcing our existing beliefs. Sophisticated operators craft messages that trigger specific responses, divide populations, and make people feel independent while following scripted patterns. From framed news stories to rage-inducing algorithms to normalizing entertainment, psyops constantly shape what we believe is true and acceptable.
Jesse breaks down how psyops work and why Christians are particularly vulnerable despite being commanded to test everything and renew our minds. We discuss specific tactics, including how intelligence agencies infiltrated the UFO community to create a false UFO religion, the development of new directed energy weapons with mind control-like abilities, how stories trigger emotions rather than inform, why certain narratives dominate while contradicting evidence disappears, and how "doing your own research" can lead deeper into controlled narratives. Drawing from the PSYOP series research, Jesse emphasizes that recognizing manipulation isn't about paranoia but about developing the discernment Scripture commands. Christians should be the hardest to manipulate, yet we're often the easiest targets because we mistake cultural programming for biblical conviction. This episode pulls back the curtain on the psychological operations, propaganda, and methodology used to control and divide the masses and will help you to recognize manipulation and think critically about what you're told to believe.

Artist Shane Wiggs shares his extraordinary journey through the paranormal and back to faith in this compelling Blurry Creatures members episode. From a childhood marked by supernatural encounters, including Ouija boards, a UFO sighting, and a haunting 3 AM encounter with an amber orb that followed his vehicle through trees, to psychedelic experiences and spiritual warfare, Shane's story touches on a multitude of aspects of the unseen realm. 

The conversation touches on everything from the prodigal son parable to the necessity of grace for those whose paths to faith wind through unconventional territory. Shane challenges the modern church's "truncated view of the supernatural," advocating for a more complete understanding that acknowledges the reality of entities, Mount Hermon's significance, and the ongoing spiritual warfare that manifests in paranormal encounters. His final triumph—finding a church home after 40 years of searching—offers hope to fellow travelers in the blurry spaces who've been told their experiences don't fit within acceptable Christian discourse. Shane's story reinforces that the journey back to God is often more complicated and grace-filled than religious communities typically acknowledge.

Doug Van Dorn returns to explore one of the Bible's most mysterious creatures: Leviathan. What if the dragon isn't just a metaphor, but a multi-layered reality spanning physical creatures, angelic beings, and the very structure of time itself? Join us for a mind-bending journey through ancient serpent worship that will change how you read both Job and Revelation.
Moving far beyond the simple "dinosaur in Job" interpretation, Doug reveals how this chaos dragon connects ancient serpent worship, astronomical cycles, and occult symbolism in ways that will reshape your understanding of biblical cosmology. Starting with his discovery of a massive serpent mound in Israel (located exactly on the longitude line of Mount Hermon), Doug reveals how ancient cultures worldwide built identical serpent temples aligned to the constellation Draco—the dragon constellation that "moves the heavens." He explains the shocking mathematical connection between Satan's pentagrams and the 25,920-year cosmic cycle, and why the Church of Satan specifically uses the name "Leviathan" in their symbols.
From Mesopotamian chaos monsters to Greek Ouroboros symbols to modern occult practices, this episode exposes a sophisticated ancient religion that viewed the serpent as the controller of time itself—and how Christ's victory at the cross defeats not just sin, but the very chaos that threatens cosmic order.

"I was just out for a night jog when I ran past a field and saw something that shouldn't exist." Josh wasn't looking for trouble—he was running his usual route in the dark when he noticed lights and movement in an empty field. As he jogged closer, the scene became clear: people gathered in the darkness performing what was unmistakably an occult ritual. And in the midst of them stood the sheep girl—a figure in white, impossibly still, with features that were horrifyingly wrong even in the dim light. Sheep characteristics blended with human form in ways that defied every natural law. The malevolent presence radiating from the scene was so powerful that he felt it from the road. This wasn't some theatrical performance or costume party happening after dark. This was something entirely different.  What he happened upon that night has haunted him ever since.
Years later, he opened his own demonic doors by stealing a gravestone from an old cemetery—bringing immediate poltergeist activity that proved objects can carry spiritual attachments and curses. We discuss both encounters in depth: what led him to jog that route at night, what he that night in that field (number of participants, ritual setup, lighting sources, the moment he spotted the sheep girl), why her animal features were so disturbing even in darkness, what the spiritual atmosphere felt like, whether the participants or entity noticed him, why he knew immediately he had to run, why occult groups perform rituals at night (darkness provides both practical cover and symbolic power in spiritual warfare), what the sheep girl entity likely represents (Pan worship, territorial demons, ancient spirits invoked through pagan ceremonies), the gravestone poltergeist story, and how cursed objects function spiritually. Josh emphasizes that, while he wasn't seeking this encounter, stumbling into it still exposed him to spiritual realities most Christians deny exist. 
Join us for a mind-bending encounter that challenges even the most ardent skeptics to question the realities of the unknown in our world.

January 1692. Two girls wake up screaming with unexplained burns on their skin. Their bodies contort unnaturally. Doctors reach a chilling conclusion: they're "under an evil hand." What unfolds over the next nine months doesn't just claim 23 lives—it murders something far more profound: the Western world's faith in the supernatural itself.
PhD candidate Brian Dedmon has discovered why Salem—out of hundreds of witch trials that killed far more people—became the one everyone remembers. The answer is chilling: Salem happened at the precise moment Western civilization was poised to abandon God. The timing was devastating. Nineteen souls hanged. One man crushed slowly beneath stacking stones, gasping his final words: "More weight."
But here's the twist that changes everything: the guilty walked free while the innocent died. "Spectral evidence" allowed convictions based on dreams alone—no physical proof required. Wealthy families weaponized the hysteria to eliminate rivals. A minister quoted the Lord's Prayer perfectly at the gallows (something witches supposedly couldn't do) and was hanged anyway.By 1700, historians across every ideological spectrum agree: Western culture abandoned belief in the supernatural almost overnight. Salem became exhibit A that Christian faith breeds dangerous superstition. SThe real question facing us now: How do we reclaim biblical supernatural faith without triggering new witch hunts? How do we acknowledge spiritual warfare when most Christians treat it like embarrassing folklore? 
Salem's message echoes across three centuries: The church must remember what it lost after 1692—before what's coming makes us wish we had.

"In him we live and move and have our being." When Paul quoted the Greek poet Epimenides at Mars Hill in Acts 17, the Athenian philosophers weren't confused—they knew exactly what he was referencing. Their council of gods. In this LIVE from Blurry Con preview, Dr. Joel Muddamalle explains that Greek philosophy included a divine hierarchy ruling over nations and territories, strikingly similar to what Scripture describes in Deuteronomy 32:8. When God judged humanity at Babel, He didn't just scatter the nations—He disinherited them, assigning each to divine beings called "sons of God." These weren't decorative angels; they were governing authorities with real power over territories. The Greeks called them gods. The Hebrews understood them as rebellious divine council members. Paul, standing in the intellectual epicenter of the ancient world, used their own theology against them: "That council you worship? They're defeated rebels. The 'Unknown God' you acknowledge but don't know? That's Yahweh—and His Son Jesus Christ has authority over every power you've been serving."

Joel walks through how Paul's Mars Hill sermon connects to the entire biblical narrative of spiritual warfare: the serpent's Eden rebellion, Babel's cosmic judgment, Mount Hermon where divine beings (Watchers) descended and corrupted the nations they were supposed to steward, and ultimately Christ's victory reclaiming all territory and authority. This is why Paul could confidently quote Greek poets—he wasn't compromising truth, he was revealing it through a framework the Greeks already understood. Joel explains what the divine council is, why geography matters in spiritual warfare, where demons originate (not fallen angels—Scripture doesn't teach that), how territorial spirits function, and why missions and prayer look different when you understand cosmic geography. The Greeks believed in a council of gods ruling over territories. Paul said: You're right about the structure, but wrong about who's in charge. Christ has defeated them all and reclaimed His rightful dominion. This conversation bridges ancient philosophy, Hebrew theology, and practical spiritual warfare—showing they're not contradictory but complementary when understood correctly. Whether you're trying to make sense of Ephesians 6, understand missions strategy, or grasp what Christ actually accomplished, Joel provides the framework Scripture assumes but Western rationalism has stripped away.

Tennessee's forests hide something most people refuse to acknowledge: tall white beings that appear, watch, and vanish. Matt Larson knows—he encountered them. Walking through remote woods, he came across entities that defied explanation: humanoid figures, impossibly tall and pale, with features that were almost human but disturbingly wrong. They weren't animals. They weren't people. They were something else entirely, and they were watching him with clear intelligence. The encounter lasted only moments, but the implications have haunted him ever since. Who—or what—are the tall whites? Why do they appear in forests? Are they the same entities reported by military personnel at classified facilities, or something different? And why do so many people across America report nearly identical experiences in wooded areas—tall, pale figures that seem to phase in and out of visibility?
In this members-only exclusive, we unpack Matt's decades of experience with the abduction phenomenon—greys, missing time, medical examinations—gave him unique context for understanding this woods encounter. After years of torment and research, he discovered these entities, including the tall whites, immediately cease when confronted with Christ's authority. During encounters, calling on Jesus caused them to react with visceral hatred and flee. This wasn't theory—it was repeatable, demonstrable spiritual warfare. We discuss the nature of tall white beings, why they manifest in remote forests, how they relate to other cryptid and UFO encounters, whether they're physical or interdimensional (or both), the mechanics of how demonic entities can appear in seemingly solid form, and why mainstream researchers avoid the spiritual component. Matt also addresses practical questions: How do you protect yourself in the woods? What should you do if you encounter these beings? Why are sightings increasing? This episode connects the dots between UFO abductions, forest cryptids, and spiritual warfare—revealing they may all be connected to the same deceptive enemy operating under different disguises.

What if the cure for cancer, diabetes, and chronic disease has been hiding in Scripture all along—not as metaphor, but as literal medicine growing in your backyard? What if the Bible has laid out the best practices for our nutrition?
Dr. Josh Axe (bestselling author and functional medicine practitioner) and Jordan Rubin (founder of Garden of Life, author of The Maker's Diet) join us to discuss their groundbreaking book The Biblio Diet, which synthesizes 6,000 years of biblical nutrition into practical health wisdom for modern Christians. Both men survived death-defying diagnoses—Jordan overcame terminal Crohn's disease and metastatic cancer, while Josh recovered from a spinal infection that doctors said would permanently disable him.
We discuss what Solomon actually ate (spoiler: bread and red meat—things no modern diet recommends), why the food pyramid is inverted, how Big Pharma's "sorcery" (pharmakeia in Greek) has deceived nations, and why pork and shellfish aren't in God's definition of "food."
But the revelation that changes everything? Ezekiel 47:12 and Revelation 22:2 both describe the Tree of Life's leaves as medicine for healing nations. Not metaphorically. Literally. Join us for a journey deep into the scriptures, offering a remarkable deep dive into ancient truths for modern bodies in need of restoration.
