Beyond Just ChristianEp. 50: Why I No Longer Believe in GhostsEpisode Description: In this episode of Beyond Just Christian Podcast, Brenna discusses why she no longer believes in ghosts. Today, she believes that demons pretend to be our deceased loved ones to fool us. In the book of Genesis, we learn that Satan led other angels against the Lord, so as their punishment, God sentenced them to earth.
