The Exorcist's Bestiary

In this returning episode of The Exorcist’s Bestiary, Jamin, Amity, and Tasha explore a question many people have asked: can demons reside in places? We discuss how to approach these unusual situations, what signs may call for further discernment, and the general steps we take when someone believes their home may be spiritually troubled.

In this episode of The Exorcist’s Bestiary, we talk about the mysterious overlap between deliverance and healing.

In the Gospels, Jesus sometimes cast out demons and physical symptoms disappeared with them. In passages like Gospel of Luke 13, a woman bent over for eighteen years is freed from a “spirit of infirmity.” In Gospel of Mark 9, a boy experiences seizures connected to a tormenting spirit.

But here’s the tension: not all sickness is caused by demons. Not all pain is spiritual warfare. And no one should feel less-than for being sick.

So how do we:

• Create space for inner healing?
• Stay open to physical healing?
• Avoid demonizing disability or chronic illness?
• Refuse both hyper-spiritualization and cold materialism?

We share stories from our own ministry experience, reflect on Scripture, and talk about the pastoral responsibility of holding hope without creating shame.

Season 3 continues as we explore the strange, misunderstood, and often polarizing gift of tongues.

In this episode of The Exorcist’s Bestiary, we talk about:

• The different Christian views on tongues
• Why people tend to go to extremes with this gift
• How someone might begin practicing it
• The theological purpose of tongues in Scripture
• How it functions in deliverance ministry
• How we’ve personally seen it bring clarity, breakthrough, and spiritual authority

From Acts of the Apostles to 1 Corinthians, tongues has always been both mysterious and practical—deeply spiritual yet grounded in the mission of the Church.

Whether you’re skeptical, curious, cautious, or already practicing the gift, this conversation invites you into a thoughtful and grounded exploration of one of Christianity’s most debated spiritual gifts.

This one is strange. Beautiful. Sometimes confusing. Often powerful.

Join us.

In this episode of The Exorcist’s Bestiary (Season 3, Episode 2), we explore how the spiritual gift of prophecy works alongside deliverance ministry—not as fortune-telling or hype, but as learning to hear the Holy Spirit and respond faithfully.

While not everyone is called to be a prophet, everyone who has the Holy Spirit has space to step into the prophetic. Prophecy, at its most simple, is hearing what the Spirit is saying and speaking or acting on it in love. And in deliverance ministry, that kind of Spirit-led awareness is essential.

In our sessions, we often rely on:

• Spiritual nudges and impressions
• Words or phrases that unexpectedly surface
• Holy Spirit-inspired daydreams or visions
• Quiet inner movements that guide prayer and care

Prophecy can get strange and unhealthy in some spaces—but when grounded in Scripture, humility, and love, it becomes a powerful way the Spirit guides healing and freedom.

In this episode, we sort through:

• What prophecy is (and what it isn’t)
• How the prophetic works in everyday believers
• What to pay attention to when listening to the Spirit
• Why prophecy is crucial in healthy deliverance ministry

As we begin season 3 of The Exorcist’s Bestiary, we’re stepping back to ask foundational questions:

What are spiritual gifts? Why do they matter? And how do they naturally overlap with deliverance ministry?

Deliverance doesn’t happen in a vacuum. It exists within a wider ecosystem of the Holy Spirit—one where discernment, wisdom, faith, mercy, prophecy, tongues, visions, and all the other spiritual gifts are just as important. In Scripture, spiritual gifts are given to the Church for healing, liberation, and building up the body of Christ.

In this opening episode, we discuss why spiritual gifts are important in deliverance ministry and encourage our listeners to remain open to them.

Deliverance ministry isn’t about losing control—it’s about restoring it.In this final episode of Season 2 of The Exorcist’s Bestiary, we explore self-control as the often-overlooked goal of deliverance and inner healing. When something has hijacked a person’s thoughts, emotions, or behaviors—whether spiritual, psychological, or traumatic—the work of freedom is about bringing those areas back under the gentle authority of the Holy Spirit.This episode wraps up our Fruit of the Spirit series by showing how self-control ties every other fruit together—and why true deliverance always increases a person’s agency, dignity, and peace.Keep up with us at https://exorcistbestiary.com/Thanks to the Fossores Chapter House for letting us record there!

Gentleness is often misunderstood as weakness—but in deliverance ministry, it may be the most powerful form of authority we carry.

In this episode of The Exorcist’s Bestiary, we continue our Fruit of the Spirit series by exploring gentleness and why it is essential in exorcism and inner healing work. Deliverance requires trust. People are entrusting you with their wounds, trauma, and darkest spiritual experiences. Without gentleness, real harm can be done.

On Christmas Day, we celebrate the arrival of Jesus—the One who brings light into darkness, healing into broken places, and freedom to the oppressed.

At The Exorcist’s Bestiary, our approach to deliverance is usually slow, relational, and rooted in inner healing over time. We believe freedom often comes after wounds are tended, lies are uncovered, and trust is rebuilt with the Holy Spirit.

But sometimes…

Something is already healed enough.

Something is already exposed enough.

And it’s not that the work hasn’t been done—it’s that no one has said, “You can go now.”

This short Christmas episode offers a gentle prayer—a gift, not a shortcut.

We pray that if the Holy Spirit discerns anything in you that is truly ready to leave, it would be removed in the authority and peace of Christ.

And if nothing happens? That’s okay. That simply means the next faithful step is still the inner-healing journey we talk about in all our other episodes.

No skipping the process. Just Emmanuel—God with us—even in the work of freedom.

🎄 Merry Christmas.

🕊️ And may the Prince of Peace guard your heart.

Important Note:

This prayer is not meant to replace inner healing, pastoral care, therapy, or the ongoing deliverance process. If nothing leaves during this prayer, that does not mean failure—it often means the Holy Spirit is inviting you to continue healing first. We strongly encourage walking through the full process we outline in other episodes.

What does faithfulness actually look like in the context of deliverance ministry?

In this episode of The Exorcist’s Bestiary, we explore the spiritual fruit of faithfulness—not as blind persistence or spiritual overreach, but as a steady, Spirit-led commitment to the deliverance process.

We discuss:
• What it looks like for participants to be faithful to their healing journey
• What it means for deliverance ministers to remain faithful without becoming controlling
• How to discern when faithfulness turns into overstepping
• Why deliverance and recovery processes require varying levels of commitment—and wisdom to navigate them
• How the Holy Spirit guides timing, pace, and responsibility in inner healing

Faithfulness is not about forcing outcomes or rushing transformation. It’s about staying aligned with God’s process, honoring human limits, and trusting that the Spirit is already at work—often beyond what we can see.

📌 The Exorcist’s Bestiary explores deliverance ministry through a holistic, pastoral, and theologically grounded lens—bridging spiritual warfare, inner healing, and discipleship.

In this episode of The Exorcist’s Bestiary, we continue our deep dive into the fruit of the Spirit and how they connect to deliverance and spirituality.

This time we explore goodness—a word some scholars say might be better translated as generosity. Deliverance often demands generosity: of time, emotion, and compassion. Whether helping someone heal to a place of generosity or overcoming fear to give freely, this fruit is vital for those walking others toward spiritual freedom.

Join us as we unpack what it means to be generous in ministry, how goodness manifests in deliverance work, and why a generous heart might be one of the strongest weapons against darkness.
