#289 Should Christians Practice Deliverance Ministry? Pt. 1, with Doug Geivett and Richard Howe

Many churches today practice deliverance ministry, which seeks to free people from the oppression and possession of demonic spirits and influence. Deliverance can involve practices like prayer, naming and binding demons, breaking generational curses, taking authority over spirits, and identifying sin patterns that (according to deliverance ministers) give demons "legal rights" to oppress or demonize believers. In this new multi-part series, I'm joined by Doug Geivett and Richard Howe to pose some questions about the general category of "deliverance ministry" and pose some concerns about the lack of biblical basis for these practices. In part 1 of the series, we cover the heart behind this series, and cover the topics of oppression vs. demonization vs. possession, and the concept of the authority of the believer. ------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:SUMMITGive your kids a stronger foundation to embrace a biblical worldview.Go to www.summit.org (http://www.summit.org/) for more informationUse my code: ALISA25GOOD RANCHERSGood Meat DeliveredGo to www.goodranchers.com/alisa (http://www.goodranchers.com/alisa) for more information.Use my code: ALISASEVEN WEEKS COFFEETaste the Coffee that is Saving Lives.Go to www.sevenweekscoffee.com (http://www.sevenweekscoffee.com/) for more information.Use my code: ALISAFOUNDATION WORLDVIEWFoundation Worldview creates curriculum series that will empower your child to thinkBiblically in a deceptive world. Go to www.foundationworldview.com (http://www.foundationworldview.com/) for more information! Use my code: ALISA--------------------------------------------------------------------To Purchase the new CD, “Beauty from the Ash”, go to www.alisachilders.com/music (http://www.alisachilders.com/music)There you can get the CD, backing tracks, string charts, rhythm charts and stems.Support us on Patreon:  www.patreon.com/alisachilders (http://www.patreon.com/alisachilders)To order “Another Gospel”:  www.alisachilders.com/another-gospel/ (http://www.alisachilders.com/another-gospel/)To order “Live Your Truth":  www.alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/ (http://www.alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/)To order “The Deconstruction of Christianity”: https://alisachilders.com/the-deconstruction-of-christianity/ (https://alisachilders.com/the-deconstruction-of-christianity/)For Alisa's Merch: https://alisachilders.creator-spring.com (https://alisachilders.creator-spring.com/)To see what gear Alisa uses to record her podcast, go to:https://kit.co/alisachilders (https://kit.co/alisachilders)Potential Sponsors: https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/ (https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/)Product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something we'll receive a small commission.
