Kim
“I was a shaman's assistant, taking ayahuasca in Italy, when demons tried to drag my soul out of my body — and I had no idea Jesus had been watching me the whole time.”

Before you watch
This testimony moves through 15 years of New Age and shamanic involvement, including graphic demonic encounters during ayahuasca ceremonies and a demon manifesting through Kim's sleeping partner. It is heavy content, but the conversion moment — a voice in a bath, a single word, and a homecoming at a church full of ex-reprobates — is one of the most specific and surprising in this library.
What this story teaches
People who are genuinely hungry for God can spend years in the wrong spiritual world — not because they are evil but because the counterfeits are convincing and the real thing was never clearly presented to them. The enemy targets the spiritually sensitive.

Sarah
I was a devoted Buddhist raised in strict Buddhism, then turned to Hinduism and witchcraft, praying to many gods across Thailand, India, and Switzerland. I was self-focused, doing everything for myself. I was always searching — from childhood I knew something was missing — but I couldn't find the answer.
Ron
I was a scrawny burnout hippie — Jewish by birth, Buddhist by practice, wannabe shaman — smoking two and a half packs a day, doing hallucinogenics, living on the road with a woman I had nothing in common with, and I couldn't hold a thought in a bucket.
Mike
I was a rock musician who nearly died of an overdose, then dropped out of college to search for God. I became a yoga guru with 300 students, teaching 14 hours a day, running an ashram, totally committed to the idea that all religions lead to the same ultimate reality.
Christa
I was a shamanic healer and love addict cobbling together an identity from tarot, spirit guides, and relationships with men. I was in pain all the time — like an open canker sore — and I was convinced I was working for the light while I was actually an agent of the enemy.
Jesse
I was a very miserable, angry person. My whole life was a trauma drama. I was into the New Age for 15 years, tried everything — Sufism, Buddhism, feminism, all of it — and none of it led me to truth or life. I had so much abuse, anger, hatred, and condemnation inside me.
Nathan
I was a drug dealer selling pounds of marijuana, cocaine, and MDMA, addicted to everything, going through the motions at church and yoga meetups, with no idea who I was. My whole life was a lie — nobody around me knew the real me.
Brian
I thought Christianity was the dumbest thing ever — a crutch for people who needed to lie to themselves. I was selling drugs, dabbling in the occult, trying to open my third eye to fight the demons that had followed me since infancy. I was a psychonaut who thought he was smarter than religion.
Chris
I was a software engineer and startup guy who rejected Christianity as antiquated, then spent years trying every psychedelic, energy healer, Buddhist retreat, and New Age practice I could find, convinced I could engineer my way to enlightenment and heal my grief on my own terms.
