Off The Bench with Heidi St. JohnHow Can We Know If An Attack is Spiritual? | 937How do we know if something going on is spiritual in nature? How can we tell if we're under attack by evil? Many of you are asking me why I keep saying this current situation is from the enemy. Today, let's look at examples in the Word so that we can observe how the adversary works. We can see very specific, telltale signs that point to demonic attack. God says we must be on guard against the schemes of the devil and today, we'll put on the armor together!

Off The Bench with Heidi St. JohnChristianity in the Age of Corona | 929I’m actually speechless at the way that Christians are responding to a situation that is literally robbing us of freedom, potentially generational in nature. We could see a systemic loss of freedom in our nation, and we are being criticized for fighting for it. It is not wrong to value liberty, and to call it being “addicted to personal freedom” is mind-numbing to me. Yes, we need to be salt and light. We need to be wise as serpents and gentle as doves. We need not sacrifice our liberty to do it!
