Welcome back to another compelling episode of God-sized Stories!
This week, we dive deep into a topic that has been subtly influencing the Christian community – the New Thought movement.
Our special guest, Melissa Dougherty, an astute YouTuber and author, joins us to shed light on how New Thought philosophies are creeping into our churches and everyday beliefs.
In this eye-opening conversation, Melissa and I explore:
- The difference between New Age and New Thought
- How New Thought teachings distort biblical scriptures
- Melissa’s personal journey of breaking free from New Thought entanglements
- The hidden dangers of prosperity gospel and affirmations
- Actionable steps to discern and protect ourselves from false teachings
Melissa’s latest book, Happy Lies: How a Movement You Probably Never Heard of, Shaped Our Self-Obsessed World, offers a well-researched and engaging exploration of these insidious teachings, arming Christians with the knowledge to counteract these deceptive beliefs.
