This is part 2 of Rachel Free’s testimony of overcoming abuse, both at the hands of her father and under church leadership. This is a crucial episode not only because of Rachel’s testimony, but also its lesson for our current moment. The word warns us of false prophets and leaders who will perform miracles, signs, and wonders seemingly in the name of Jesus, only to be told at judgment, “'I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness'” (Matthew 21:23).

Everyone who claims Christ is not operating in the Holy Spirit. Wheat and tares anyone?! There are counterfeit spirits and counterfeit gospels, and many are being deceived. It’s time to wake up and outgrow our Christian naiveté. We pray that Rachel’s story will aid in that.

I recently visited Ffald y Brenin, a residential prayer center in Wales that is known for being a "thin place" — meaning it’s a place where the boundary between the physical and the spiritual is minimal, and where people often encounter the Lord in profound ways. SPOILER: it's true!
