This is a question I have asked myself often in life. But I have definitely struggled with the fear, anxiety, and shame of this question since I left the Christian cult I was involved in for 6 years. In the decade I have been out of that cult, I have gotten a lot of healing in this area. But, I would be lying if I said I don't still wrestle with the anxiety from this unbiblical belief at times.

Today's episode addresses one out of many perspectives about this belief. There are so many more conversations we could have around this question and we will certainly make time to have them one day! I hope this episode at least provides some hope and assurance.

I am honored to have my parents on the podcast! Neither one of them have ever told their side of the story publicly. But, they have decided to do so now in hopes to help another parent who feels helpless.

We hope that hearing their story and hearing the three of us sit together and chat will bring hope, encouragement, wisdom, and peace to loved ones who know someone involved in a cult or religious abuse.

I must say that I am beyond proud of my parents and deeply thankful for their continued love and support.

My sister, Elaina, is back on the podcast! But this time, our conversation is very different from our last conversation.

Elaina shares her story about being the sibling of someone involved in a cult. She has never shared her story or perspective publicly and we believe that her story will provide wisdom and hope for other loved ones who know someone involved in a cultish environment.

Welcome to Season 3 of The Warriors Community Podcast! This year, we have decided to take a few important themes and turn them into monthly conversations. For the month of January, we are discussing family.

We don't hear much about what family members and loved ones go through when they know someone involved in a cultish environment. There are a lot of family members and loved ones who feel isolated and helpless. So, we have decided to provide some tools, resources, and stories that we believe we will help them in their healing journey.

Today's guest is a podcaster himself who uses his many years of military experience and research on spiritual warfare to teach others and equip them to do spiritual battle.

I met Roger Krickler through a podcasting Facebook page and he invited me to be a guest on his podcast. After having such a good conversation with him, I decided to invite him to speak about spiritual warfare on my podcast!

For anyone who has wrestled with what to believe, or not believe, about spiritual warfare, today's podcast will help you know where to start and how to unpack this topic.

After 2 years of hosting The Enough Series on The Warriors Community, we have chosen to end the series.

This decision was not an easy one and took months of evaluation, feedback, prayers, and consideration. However, we have concluded that The Enough Series has served its purpose and have turned out attention and focus toward providing tools and resources as well as community for anyone who has experienced religious abuse.

In today's episode, I explain the origin story of The Enough Series, the purpose it has served, and a vision for The Warriors Community in 2025, Season 3.

Have someone ever quoted scripture to you that just didn't sit right or feel right? Or maybe someone used Jesus' name to abuse you? Or, someone quote scripture with the best of intentions that actually caused harm or confusion? I think everyone can yes to one of those questions.

I got curious, and asked ChatGBT what the top 10 Bible verses were that usually get taken out of context and twisted. And I'm going to share those with you today along with a few options for anyone looking to better understand the Bible and how to read it.
