When spiritual authority crosses into control, how do you recognize it—and why is it so hard to name while you're inside it?

 
In this special edition of the Praying Christian Women podcast, Jaime and Alana take a break from the usual Prayer Through the Psalms series to share a deeply personal interview from their true crime podcast series, Christian True-Crime Junkies.

Coinciding with Spiritual Abuse Awareness Month, this is Part 1 of a 3-part conversation exploring Alana's harrowing experience in a Christian cult during her college years—a story she is sharing in depth for the first time.

What began as a faith community rooted in belonging and purpose slowly revealed patterns of manipulation, control, and spiritual abuse. Through Alana's firsthand account, we unpack how high-control religious environments form, why intelligent and faith-seeking young adults are especially vulnerable, and how Scripture, obedience, and "submission" can be weaponized to silence questions and override personal discernment. 

Whether you have experienced spiritual abuse yourself or simply want to protect your loved ones, we hope you'll join us as we learn to distinguish between a healthy church and a high-control group, ultimately pointing us back to the safety and freedom found in a genuine relationship with Jesus.

NOTE: Part 2 of this conversation will air on Tuesday, 1/20 on the Christian True-Crime Junkies! podcast, with Part 3 to follow!

Megyn Kelly is joined by Kristen Waggoner, president of Alliance Defending Freedom, to discuss what she saw while she was inside the Supreme Court watching the "trans" sports arguments today, the massive day for potentially protecting women’s sports, what Megyn believes the court will rule, why she's worried about what some of the more right-leaning justices were saying today, the disturbing use of incorrect pronouns and "cisgender" during the arguments by the justices, the leftist spin from the ACLU and other liberal Supreme Court justices on the "trans" sports issue, why it's crucial to protect girls in this moment, and more. Then The Daily Wire's Andrew Klavan, author of "After That, The Dark," joins to discuss the true dangers of the radical left being revealed after the Minnesota ICE shooting, the violent rhetoric and lies from the leftist media, the brilliant Scott Adams passing at age 68, the way People magazine and other corporate media outlets smeared him in their obituaries, his powerful final message, and more.
