Raised and Redeemed

In today’s episode of the Raised & Redeemed Podcast, I’m joined by author and former New Ager Abigail Myatt, who shares her powerful journey from New Age to Christ. Abigail recently finished writing her memoir, I Manifested My Worst Nightmare, where she exposes how New Age spirituality promises healing and empowerment but ultimately leads to bondage, exploitation, and spiritual deception.

This honest conversation explores how Christ fills the deepest love voids we try to satisfy through relationships, spiritual practices, and identity outside of Him. We discuss the spiritual dangers of the New Age, its connection to sexual exploitation, and the freedom that comes through repentance, abstinence, and surrender to Jesus Christ.

In this episode, we cover:

What is the process of becoming Saints?

In this powerful and deeply pastoral conversation, Orthodox priest Fr. Photios Dumont shares what he has witnessed over 35 years of ministry: modern miracles, living holy people, and the ongoing healing work of God through His Saints.

This episode is especially for inquirers and new converts to Orthodox Christianity who want to understand:

✨ What a Saint truly is

✨ Why Orthodox Christians pray to Saints

✨ How Saints are recognized and proven

✨ Why Orthodoxy is fundamentally a theology of healing

✨ How spiritual warfare is fought in the Orthodox life

✨ And how ordinary people are called to becoming Saints

Fr. Photios shares extraordinary stories involving St. John of San Francisco, the Saint he turns to most often in prayer, along with reflections on St. Paisios of Mount Athos, Elder Ephraim of Arizona, Elder Aimilianos of Simonopetra, and other modern holy figures he personally encountered.

This episode addresses common Protestant objections with clarity and love, explores miracles before and after a Saint’s repose, and offers practical next steps for anyone seeking holiness, healing, and deeper union with Christ.

In this conversation, Fr. Ivan Shandra joins Michaela Nikolaenko to unpack one of the most important questions in the Christian life: how do we know what’s truly from God, and what isn’t?

Coming from a background in the occult and New Age spirituality, Michaela has witnessed firsthand how easily people mistake emotional or mystical experiences for the Holy Spirit. Even within Christianity, especially in charismatic movements, people often speak of hearing God’s voice, receiving prophetic messages, or having supernatural encounters. But how does Orthodox Christianity understand these experiences—and how can we discern truth from spiritual deception (prelest)?

Fr. Ivan, an Orthodox priest serving in Toronto and host of Orthodox Talks, offers profound Orthodox insight into the gifts of the Holy Spirit, the discernment of prophecy, speaking in tongues, casting out demons, and experiencing the true presence of God within the sacramental life of the Church.

Together, they contrast the Orthodox approach—rooted in humility, obedience, and community—with the emotional, individualistic spirituality often seen in charismatic settings.

If you’ve ever wondered whether your spiritual experiences are from God or from your own mind, this episode will help anchor you in the truth of the Holy Spirit’s work through the Church.

📖 Referenced Scriptures:

1 Corinthians 12 — The Gifts of the Spirit

1 John 4:1 — “Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits…”

Matthew 7:15–23 — “Beware of false prophets…”

John 16:13 — “When the Spirit of truth comes, He will guide you into all truth.”

💡 Key Takeaways:

- The Holy Spirit is a person, not just an energy or force.

- We receive the Holy Spirit through chrismation in the Orthodox Church.

- True discernment comes through humility and obedience, not emotional highs.

- Prophecy in Orthodoxy is about witnessing truth, not revealing new doctrine.

- The charismatic promise of instant transformation differs from the Orthodox path of repentance and theosis.

- The true presence of God is found in the liturgical and sacramental life of the Church.

Together, we explore:

👻 Can Christians really celebrate Halloween?

Today, Kara Mosher shares her journey from the occult to Orthodox Christianity and exposes psychedelic deception. Before encountering Christ, psychedelics were her god, yet never healed her or brought her peace. While she thought they were leading her to truth in the spirit realm, they were only leading her further into darkness and occult training.

In this episode of the Raised & Redeemed podcast, host Michaela Nikolaenko talks with Kara Mosher, author of Here Comes Trouble and host of the Let’s Be Friends Podcast, about her journey from psychedelic “enlightenment," mental illness, and demonic oppression to finding the true Light in Orthodox Christianity.

In this video, I’m responding to your comments from my recent post about Halloween. Many of you shared strong opinions—most against celebrating it—and I wanted to take a moment to address those thoughts with honesty, love, and discernment.

As someone who came from a past of extreme darkness—involved in things that truly glorified evil—I understand the concerns many Christians have. But I also know the difference between the demonic and the innocent, and I don’t believe that dressing up, walking with your family, or sharing candy with your community has to be sinful when done with clear boundaries and a heart that remains in Christ.

Let’s talk about how we, as Christians, can approach days like Halloween with spiritual wisdom rather than fear, and how to shine light—even on a night that’s often associated with darkness.

👇 Share your thoughts in the comments! I’d love to hear how your family approaches this day and how you keep your focus on what’s good and godly.

What does it mean to live liturgically as an Orthodox Christian? In this episode of the Raised & Redeemed podcast, I sit down with Fr. Christian Siskos, Assistant Priest at Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Cathedral in Charlotte, NC, and the voice behind Noetic Spring.

Together, we explore how Orthodox Christians can live out the faith daily through prayer, fasting, the feasts, and the sacraments—passing the beauty of Orthodoxy on to future generations.

We discuss the meaning of the Eucharist, the role of women in the Church, head coverings, beauty standards, and how Orthodox Christians can navigate cultural challenges like Halloween, yoga, and modern media. Fr. Christian also shares about his children’s curriculum Little Ascetics, designed to help families nurture faith in their homes.

If you’ve ever wondered how to live a liturgical life, how to participate in the Orthodox cycle of feasts and fasts, or how Orthodoxy responds to today’s hot-button issues—this conversation is for you.

✨ In this powerful Orthodox Christian testimony, I sit down with my friend Romy Scates to share her journey of faith—from growing up in the Assemblies of God, to falling away into New Age spirituality, to finally finding her way home to the Orthodox Church.

Raised in the church, Romy never fully forgot that Jesus Christ is Lord. But as she searched for truth, she found herself entangled in the deception of the New Age. Later, as she returned to Christianity, she discovered that many Protestant churches were teaching not only false doctrines but also exposing believers to spiritually dangerous practices.

Her story is one of discernment, repentance, and encountering the fear of the Lord. Ultimately, Romy and her husband found the Orthodox Christian faith, where they experienced the fullness of truth, reverence for God, and the unchanging teachings of the Early Church.

🙏 Whether you are:

~ A Protestant Christian curious about true Christian teachings

~ A seeker leaving the New Age movement

~ Or an Orthodox Christian interested in testimonies of converts…

This episode will inspire you and help you understand why people are finding their true home in the Orthodox Church.
