How do I know if a pastor is a false teacher? What are red flags of false teaching in church? Can Christians call out false teachers or is that wrong? In this episode, Christian apologist Melissa Dougherty joins us to talk about spiritual deception, how false teaching spreads, and why so many people are drawn in without realizing it. We dive into practical ways to test what you hear, the dangers of equating results with truth, and how to stay grounded in God’s Word without becoming cynical or judgmental. If you’ve ever wondered how to spot a false teacher—or if someone you follow might be one—this conversation will help you think clearly, biblically, and with love for the truth.
