Hinduism isn't just a religion practiced halfway around the world — its core ideas have quietly worked their way into Western culture, and many Christians have unknowingly absorbed them without realizing it. In this episode, we break down the basics of Hindu belief: karma, reincarnation, the pursuit of moksha, and the role of gurus as spiritual guides. Then we turn the mirror on ourselves — examining how "good vibes only" karma-talk, guru-culture influencers, and meditation stripped of any object of worship have crept into everyday Christian thinking.

 In this episode, we take a look at the New Age movement and modern mysticism — a loosely connected set of beliefs and practices that includes things like energy healing, astrology, crystals, manifestation, tarot, and the idea that divinity exists within all things and all people. In this podcast episode we explore 1 Samuel 28  & what happens when we open the door for spiritual guidance that is not from the Lord.

 Islam is the world's second-largest religion, with over 2 billion adherents tracing their spiritual roots back to a 7th-century prophet named Muhammad and a sacred text called the Qur'an. In this episode, we explore the historical origins of Islam, its core beliefs — the Five Pillars, and where these beliefs intersect with and diverge from the gospel of Jesus Christ. We'll unpack key theological differences, particularly around the nature of God, sin, salvation, and the person of Jesus, who is honored in Islam as a prophet but not as Savior and Son of God.

 In this episode, we pause to intercede for our friends, neighbors, and family members in the LDS Church — not out of judgment, but out of love and a desire for them to know the Jesus of the Bible. We walk through some of the core differences between historic Christianity and LDS theology and the true hope that only the Gospel can offer.

 In this episode, we explore fasting not as a rigid rule to follow, but as a spiritual art form — a practice shaped by intention, humility, and hunger for God rather than performance. We trace fasting through Scripture, from Moses on the mountain to Jesus in the wilderness, and unpack why this ancient discipline still matters for believers today. We dig into the "why" behind fasting: it's not about earning God's approval or proving spiritual strength, but about clearing away distractions so we can hear Him more clearly.
