Ep. 239 - Former New Age Guru Doreen Virtue Divulges Danger of Practicing Yoga & Eastern Meditation

The New Age is a “spiritual buffet” that merges facets of mysticism, Native American spirituality, Roman Catholicism, polytheism and countless other practices. Doreen Virtue is a former famous psychic medium and New Age guru who made and spent millions encouraging people to trust in themselves and channel angels and deities to live their best lives. Doreen came to Christ in 2017 and immediately left the New Age and now gives key examples of the dangerous demonic influences behind popular trends like yoga. Doreen also says that many well-meaning people end up getting hooked into the New Age deception for innocent reasons like health and wellness, but reminds us that the New Age religion is a progressive disease that eventually takes us to a deep level of depravity.
