What happens when the person working behind the scenes of a Christian podcast has been praying for its host all along? In this episode of Kingdom Builders, I sit down with Cait, my longtime podcast producer, to talk about her journey in business and faith.

This conversation is a powerful reminder of how God moves through our work, relationships, and even the unexpected connections we make along the way.

How does someone go from casting spells in an occult temple to casting out demons in Jesus’ name? In this episode of Kingdom Builders, I’m joined by Jenny Joy, a full-time deliverance minister who knows firsthand what it’s like to be set free from deep spiritual bondage. After years of addiction, trauma, and full-blown involvement in witchcraft—including reiki, tarot, and even an underground occult temple—Jenny encountered Jesus and was delivered from over a thousand demons. We get into the nitty-gritty of how demonic oppression happens, why Christians aren’t immune, and the dangers lurking behind things like energy healing and manifestation. If you’ve ever dabbled in the New Age or wondered why deliverance is necessary, you don’t want to miss this one!

What happens when you let go of every healing technique and trust Jesus alone to restore you? In this episode of Kingdom Builders, I’m talking with Adeline, a former New Ager who found true freedom in Christ.

Adeline shares how New Age practices pulled her further from the truth and opened doors to spiritual warfare, chronic insomnia, and a deep sense of disconnection. She gets real about breaking soul ties, renouncing the spirit of lust, and how God completely restored her understanding of womanhood, relationships, and identity. If you’ve ever felt like something was off in your spiritual journey or wondered why healing methods outside of Jesus never seem to last, this episode is for you!

Is sex before marriage truly freeing, or is it actually keeping us in cycles of heartbreak and confusion? In this episode of Kingdom Builders, I share my journey from dismissing purity as outdated to being fully convicted by the Holy Spirit. I open up about how my past in the “feminine liberated” and New Age worlds shaped my views on sex, how meeting a godly man after my baptism challenged me, and how I came to see God’s design for sex as a blessing, not a restriction. I’m also discussing the clarity of dating without sex, the heartbreak of casual relationships, and how embracing God’s way transformed my desires for marriage and family. If you’ve wrestled with this topic, I pray this episode brings a fresh perspective and a deeper understanding of God’s love and protection.

Can faith in Christ in your darkest moments break the chains of addiction? In this episode, I sit down with my dear friend Keilani to hear her incredible testimony about leaving the New Age and finding Jesus.

Have you ever wondered if the healing methods you’ve been using are actually keeping you trapped? In this episode of Kingdom Builders, Haley and I talk about how she left New Age trauma therapy after realizing it was built on half-truths that kept people stuck instead of truly healed. As a therapist, she once relied on methods like meditation, sound baths, and self-love practices, but after encountering Jesus, Hayley saw how these approaches lacked real transformation and left the door open to deception. Haley talks about how God completely shifted her understanding of trauma therapy, leading her to rebuild her business and life on His truth. Hayley now helps others break free from worldly healing methods and find real freedom in Christ.

Could an old name, relationship, or identity be holding you back from God’s true calling? In this episode of Kingdom Builders, I’m sharing what it’s really like to walk through the wilderness season, when God strips away everything that can’t go with you into the next chapter. Over the past few months, I’ve experienced deep pruning: letting go of relationships, experiencing big business shifts, and even reclaiming my real name after realizing how the enemy uses name changes to alter our destiny. God convicted me about renouncing Elaina Ray–a name I took on in the New Age–and stepping back into the identity He gave me through my family, Elaina Giolando. If you’re feeling the weight of isolation, loss, or loneliness during your own wilderness season, hear this: God is preparing you for something greater. Stay faithful, because He is making a way.

How does God use discomfort and conviction to lead us back to Him? In this episode of Kingdom Builders, I sit down with Brittany to hear her incredible journey from living in the New Age community in Bali to finding true freedom in Jesus.

There, she had an overwhelming encounter with the Holy Spirit that completely transformed her life. We also explore how her baptism delivered her from old habits and ushered her into a year-long wilderness season in Georgia, where she embraced solitude, deepened her faith, and experienced profound spiritual renewal. Brittany’s testimony is a moving reminder of God’s power to redeem and restore, no matter how far we’ve wandered.

She also discusses the spiritual dangers of name changes and how they alter your destiny, plus her experience with how mediums disguise demons as loved ones, creating a false sense of comfort while allowing evil into our lives. Malaine’s story is a wake-up call about the spiritual traps of New Age practices and the life-changing freedom you can only find in Jesus.

What happens when the church, meant to be a place of refuge, becomes a source of pain? In this episode of Kingdom Builders, I talk with Taylor Simpson, founder of Untamed University, to explore her journey from church hurt and family heartbreak to discovering a true faith in Christ. Taylor shares her story of growing up as the daughter of a Lutheran pastor who built a thriving church from the ground up, until her father’s double life came to light.
