Welcome to Heaven & Healing Podcast. Formerly known as Moon and Back Podcast, this was once a place of astrology, yoga, new age spirituality and self-healing. In October 2021, I opened my heart to Jesus Christ and accepted Him as my Lord and Savior later that year. By December, I was convicted by the Holy Spirit to rebrand my podcast and denounce new age spirituality as I officially declared my identity in Christianity. On February 22, 2022, Heaven & Healing was officially born. On Heaven & Healing, I share testimonies from others who have been saved by Christ – from other former new agers, to former witches, former addicts, former atheists and so much more. I also bring on Biblical scholars to share knowledge of the history, context, and meaning of Scripture. Additionally discussed are experiences from my own life, political commentary and cultural discourse as it all relates to God and His Word. For any believer or non-believer, this podcast is for you, in Jesus’ name. Amen!
Episode 5 of Heaven & Healing Podcast features my beloved sister in Christ, Naela Rose. Naela is an ex-occultist with a background in womb worship, menstrual magic, psychic mediumship, yoga and goddess work both personally and professionally before Jesus saved her from the deception she was living in. She pulled a complete 180 and gave up her business over a year ago, and has lived in stewardship to the Lord ever since.
In this conversation, Naela shares her coming-to-Christ testimony, leading us into discussion of the God-shaped hole in all of us. We talk about how every person on this planet has an innate longing within for God because He designed us to need Him; however, we live in a secular, global society that benefits and profits from convincing the masses that this longing can be self-fulfilled with what the world has to offer. Consequently, us humans attempt to fill the void with sex, sport, food, drugs, alcohol, intellectualism, porn, music, personal-actualization, or new-age spirituality as Naela and both fell victim to.
God created every being that has ever or will ever live. We are made in His image, in His likeness, in His love, and therefore we need Him, as children of the Heavenly Father. But because God’s love is unconditional, He will never force us to accept this truth. He has declared free will for His children, and therefore we have been given the personal responsibility to recognize that need for Him.
Because we are designed to need, love and serve Him — for He loves and delights in us — we are inherently programmed to worship something. Therefore, if it’s not God we rightfully choose, we will try fitting square pegs into round holes and find something to worship. We are wired that way. So without God, we become obsessed with or addicted to things, people, and relationships that we think will quench the internal thirst, only to be continually left high and dry because God is the Living Water.
Many modalities of self-worship to idol-worship that we reach for in an attempt to fill the void that only God can fulfill within us, because He is the one who put it there.
