    The Queen of New Age Movement | Doreen Virtue

    The Queen of New Age Movement | Doreen Virtue on The Jake Giffin Podcast For over 30 years, Doreen Virtue helped build the modern New Age movement. Best-selling author published in 38 languages. Psychic to celebrities. Regular guest on Oprah, CNN, The View, and Coast to Coast. Ranked among the top 15 most influential spiritual teachers in the world. If you've heard of angel cards, angel numbers, manifestation, spirit guides, or energy healing — Doreen helped make those ideas mainstream. Then, in 2017, she walked away from all of it. In this episode, Doreen sits down with Jake Giffin to expose the New Age movement from the inside. Not as an outside critic — as the woman who helped build it. She explains what the New Age actually is at its core (control), how it twists Scripture to convince people they're "little gods," and why it specifically targets women who've been hurt by the church. She breaks down the real origins of reiki, why meditation apps can be a gateway into darkness, why yoga cannot be "redeemed" as a Christian practice, and how a seemingly innocent anxiety meditation led one woman all the way to becoming a satanic high priestess. Doreen also shares her full testimony: how an Alistair Begg sermon on false teachers convicted her at 57 years old, the church-shopping journey that followed, the fallout of leaving a global New Age empire, the rumors New Agers spread to discredit her, and why — contrary to those rumors — she left the New Age broke and in debt. Plus: how to actually evangelize someone in the New Age (hint: start with peace), and why sharing the gospel is never wasted, even when it takes 20 years to bear fruit. Whether you're a Christian trying to reach a New Age loved one, someone questioning tarot, crystals, manifestation, or witchcraft, or you're curious how New Age philosophy quietly permeated Western culture — this conversation is essential.

Raised in New Thought churches for 33 years, she later became a psychotherapist specializing in women's issues and a globally touring New Age teacher. After the Holy Spirit convicted her while reading Deuteronomy 18:10–12, she repented, renounced her former work, and earned a Master's degree in Biblical and Theological Studies from Western Seminary (2021, highest honors). Today she exposes New Age deception, warns the church against spiritual counterfeits, and disciples women coming out of the New Age.

    Faithful and Wrong - When Seeking God Doesn't Go the Way You Planned

    FAITHFUL AND WRONG — WHEN SEEKING GOD DOESN'T GO THE WAY YOU PLANNED The Jake Giffin Podcast | Feat. Paul Granger  Most men have a version of faith that operates on expectation. They seek God sincerely, show up, stay faithful, and quietly assume that faithfulness produces a specific outcome. When it doesn't, the options are narrow: blame yourself, blame God, or quietly revise what you claimed to believe. Paul Granger has spent two decades in inner-city ministry in Richmond, Virginia — living on donated income, raising a family in one of the city's toughest neighborhoods, asking one question every single day: where did you see God? He doesn't ask it as a spiritual warm-up exercise. He asks it because the honest answer exposes whether you were actually looking — or whether you were looking for a very specific thing and calling that seeking. In this segment, the conversation gets uncomfortable. Not because the ideas are fragile. Because Paul is willing to follow them into the territory where they actually get tested — where faithful people do everything right and the outcome looks nothing like what they expected God to produce. Peter is the case study. Peter, who had a front-row seat to three years of miracles. Who saw nature obey. Who walked on water until he started thinking about it. Who pulled a sword in the garden because he was ready for a blaze of glory — and then denied Christ three times before sunrise because the actual unfolding of God's plan bore no resemblance to his theology. Peter's framework wasn't wrong because he was weak. It failed because he was still operating from a human metric of what faithfulness is supposed to look like. Jesus didn't have a perfect track record. Not by our metrics. He entered public ministry and died surrounded by fewer followers than he started with. His inner circle scattered. His most vocal defender denied him publicly. By every measurable standard, the conclusion is failure. What Paul confronts in this conversation is the discomfort of sitting with that observation — and why most men immediately explain it away rather than let it do its work. Because most men do explain it away. They build theology that insulates them from the gap between what they believe and what they observe. And when the gap gets too wide — when the situation refuses to resolve, when the wilderness year becomes two, when the door they prayed open stays closed — the theology doesn't hold. What they're left with isn't a crisis of circumstance. It's a crisis of identity. Proverbs 3:5-6 doesn't say trust God until it gets hard. It says trust with all your heart, do not lean on your own understanding, and in all your ways submit to him. Comprehensive, not seasonal. The steelman argument here is not that faith is irrational. It's that much of what men call faith is a transactional expectation with God's name on it. When the transaction doesn't close on their timeline, they either perform a crisis or perform a recovery — and neither is what Paul Granger is actually describing. What he's describing is releasing your grip on what God does with your faithfulness. Not just seeking God. Seeking God and then trusting the outcome entirely to him — including outcomes that look, by every external measure, like failure. That discipline is harder than the seeking. And this conversation doesn't soften it. This is Segment 2 of a three-part interview. Segment 3 is where the value transfers. If you haven't seen Segment 1, start there. Subscribe. Leave a review.

    The Church Is Keeping Secrets from Men

    The Church Is Keeping Secrets from Men The Jake Giffin Podcast | ft. Mark Osborne Most men sitting in church pews on Sunday morning have never been told the full truth. They've been given grace without repentance. Forgiveness without accountability. A God who loves them but never one they should fear. The result is a generation of Christian men who are spiritually passive, morally drifting, and quietly wondering why nothing in their lives reflects the faith they claim to hold. This conversation changes that. Jake Giffin sits down with Mark Osborne — founder and host of The Valiant Forge Podcast — for a direct, unfiltered conversation about what biblical manhood actually costs and what the modern church has been too afraid to say out loud. Mark has spent decades working with Christian men, and his framework is built on one conviction that comfort-culture Christianity keeps trying to bury: men are not built through ease. They are forged through pressure, adversity, and the kind of fear of God that produces real obedience — not just Sunday morning attendance. This is not a motivational episode. It is a mirror. WHAT THIS EPISODE COVERS The conversation moves through six major areas that the modern church has either softened, ignored, or gotten completely backwards. The Fear of God vs. the Love of Jesus — Mark draws a sharp line between two things men tend to conflate. You can love Jesus and still not fear God. He walks through John Bevere's work on the awe of God and unpacks why reverence without accountability is not reverence at all. A man who stops fearing God doesn't stop believing — he just stops obeying. The consequences of that gap are everywhere. Grace Presumption — The cotton candy gospel has produced a generation of men who treat grace like a hall pass. Sin on Monday, confess on Sunday, repeat. Mark and Jake go after the theology behind that cycle and why repentance that doesn't include turning is not repentance at all. They reference Romans 6 and the Paul question directly: are we going to keep sinning so grace can abound? The answer has not changed. The Discipleship Gap — Mark shares his own 40-year wilderness story. Saved at 14, never properly discipled, and left to wander through decades of casual Christianity until God forced a reckoning. He connects his story to the broader failure of the institutional church to do what it was actually commissioned to do — make disciples, not just converts. Jake connects it to his own Calvary Chapel background and the model of showing up to services without the depth of real brotherhood. The Church Softness Problem — Both men take on the cultural feminization of church culture — not as a shot at women, but as an honest diagnosis of what happens when men stop leading. The result is a church that preaches to the least threatened instincts in the room. Comfort. Inclusion. Niceness. The men drift. The families follow. Leading vs. Bossing — One of the sharpest segments of the conversation. Biblical headship does not mean control. A man who has to tell his wife to follow him has already lost the plot. Real leadership is directional — you know where you're going, you've counted the cost, and the people around you trust you because you've proven it. Mark is transparent about his own failures as a husband and the work it took to earn that trust back. Get Up and Fight Back — The episode closes with a word to men who keep falling. Get back up. But at some point, getting back up is not enough. You have to start punching. Mark uses the boxing metaphor with precision — resilience without counterattack is just slow losing. The call is to stop tolerating the cycles and start fighting the actual enemy. CHAPTER MARKERS 00:00 — Introduction & Why Jake Was on Mark's Podcast First 01:00 — Mark Osborne Intro: Valiant Forge, Legacy, and Pressure-Built Men 02:00 — Finding Your Voice When You Hate Speaking in Front of People 04:00 — The Fear of God vs. Reverence: What John Bevere Got Right 06:00 — Grace Presumption and the Cotton Candy Gospel 08:00 — The Porn Problem and What the Church Keeps Avoiding 09:00 — Men Leading Church: What Wild at Heart Diagnosed Correctly 11:00 — Romans 6 and the Grace Abuse Cycle 13:00 — The 40-Year Wilderness: Mark's Discipleship Story 14:00 — Why Calvary Chapel and Seeker-Friendly Models Left Men Undiscipled 22:00 — Sin, Shame, and the Problem with Giving Advice You Haven't Lived 29:00 — Love Jesus, Fear God: The Jim Bakker Story from John Bevere's Book 31:00 — Revival Circus: Brownsville, Lions, and Signs Without Substance 40:00 — Biblical Headship: Leading Is Not Bossing 48:00 — Get Up, Fight Back, and Stop Falling: Final Word for Men in the Cycle 54:00 — Accountability, Theology That Matches Lifestyle, and Closing ABOUT THE GUEST — MARK OSBORNE Mark Osborne is the founder and host of The Valiant Forge Podcast, a weekly show built specifically for Christian men who want to leave a legacy that lasts. Mark is a husband, father, and grandfather whose content is shaped by four decades of lived experience — including a 40-year wilderness season as a casual Christian that ended with a sharp divine course correction. His show is not built on biography. It is built on the forge — the conviction that scars become wisdom when a man is willing to be honest about them. Mark is active in his local church, developing as a speaker and teacher, and consistently bringing on guests who are willing to have the conversations the comfortable church tends to skip.

    #69 What's Living in Your Blood? Stan Kurtz on the Patterns Western Medicine Won't Look For

    What's Living in Your Blood? Stan Kurtz on the Patterns Western Medicine Won't Look For Most people are told what they have. Stan Kurtz wants to show you what's actually in your blood — and the difference between those two things might be the conversation that changes your health forever. Stan Kurtz is an independent researcher, inventor, and founder of Quantum Research & Development based in the Los Angeles area. He is not a doctor. He doesn't diagnose conditions, and he doesn't treat them. What he does — and has done for over 22 years — is look at blood under a microscope, identify patterns that correlate with poor health outcomes, and work to systematically clear those patterns using natural protocols, laser technology, and remedies that predate most of modern medicine. The results he documents are extraordinary. The approach is methodical. The logic is hard to dismiss. Stan's entry into this work wasn't academic. It was personal. His son was diagnosed with early autism — a condition he was told was irreversible. Stan refused that conclusion. He became obsessed with the science, the data, the motives behind the science, and the patterns nobody else was measuring. After helping his son recover, he turned that same obsessive, evidence-driven attention toward thousands of other families. What began as a parent's refusal to accept a label became a 22-year body of work that includes invented supplements, custom laser technologies, live blood analysis protocols, EEG documentation, and documented recovery cases across a wide range of chronic conditions. In this episode, Stan and Jake Giffin go deep on what live blood analysis actually reveals — including the spider-webbing structures Stan identifies in plasma, what they correlate with, and how removing them changes the way people feel. They talk about the difference between naming a disease and addressing what's actually in the body. They talk about what "science" actually means when you factor in the motives of who's funding the research. And they talk about why the most important tool in Stan's work isn't a laser, a remedy, or a microscope — it's the willingness to look at evidence without deciding what it has to say before you look. This is not a wellness episode. This is a conversation about how someone who cares more about outcomes than credentials built a methodology that has helped people a broken system had already given up on. Topics covered in this episode: Live blood analysis and what spider-webbing in plasma actually indicates Why Stan doesn't diagnose, treat, or use the word "treatment" — and what he does instead The difference between naming a condition and addressing root cause Why science is a language, not a verdict — and why understanding researcher motives changes how you read studies How hydrogen therapy, red light, and custom laser frequencies are applied based on what the blood shows EEG documentation of brain activity before and after protocols A 76-year-old with an Alzheimer's diagnosis — and what her blood looked like four hours later A 12-year-old cancer survivor whose blood, and face, changed completely in three days Why Stan believes there are things in human blood that evolution never built a defense against — and what that implies The role of parental motivation in research nobody else is willing to do   CONNECT WITH STAN KURTZ 🔗 All Links: https://linktr.ee/quantumhealingtech 📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stankurtz2/ 💼 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stankurtz/ 🌐 Website: www.stankurtz.org 🩸 Recovery Testimonials: http://Stansrecoveries.com 📅 Schedule a Session: Available via linktr.ee/quantumhealingtech Stan Kurtz is a researcher and inventor.

    #68 Rick Lynch: The Constitution Is Already Dead

    Rick Lynch: The Constitution Is Already Dead What if everything you thought you knew about the U.S. Constitution was wrong? In this episode, Jake sits down with constitutional researcher and author Rick Lynch — veteran D.C. speechwriter and author of Money and Liberty — to unpack four things almost nobody knows about the founding document that still governs every American life. Rick argues that the Bill of Rights didn't protect the Constitution — it destroyed it. The men who actually wrote the Constitution voted it down, called it dangerous, and had a completely different system in mind. That system has been buried for over two centuries, and in this conversation, Rick pulls it all the way to the surface. What you'll hear in this episode: Why the Framers unanimously rejected the Bill of Rights — and why that matters right now The enumeration: the part of the Constitution nobody talks about but everyone should How paper money and America's first welfare program triggered the entire Constitutional Convention Why your property rights are mentioned 17x more often in the Federalist Papers than free speech, religion, and the press combined The real purpose of checks and balances — and it's not what your civics class taught you Why Rick says, plainly: the Constitution is dead This one will rewire how you think about government, liberty, and the money they take from you every year.

    #67 The Victorious Underdog: From Streets to Purpose with Roosevelt Sergeant

    What does it actually take to go from chaos to clarity… from survival mode to purpose? In this episode, Roosevelt Sergeant breaks down the mindset, identity shift, and raw truth behind becoming what he calls a "Victorious Underdog." This isn't a polished, sanitized story. It's real—gritty, uncomfortable, and honest. From growing up surrounded by instability to finding direction through faith, Roosevelt walks through the internal transformation most people avoid. This conversation goes beyond inspiration. It challenges the belief systems that keep people stuck. You'll hear the difference between being an underdog and being undisciplined, why most people never change their situation, and how exposure, proximity, and mindset determine your future. We also get into: Why a fixed mindset keeps you trapped How a growth mindset is actually built (not just talked about) The role of identity in long-term change Why some people stay stuck while others break out The reality of faith lived out in imperfect people If you've ever felt like the odds were stacked against you—or you've been using that as an excuse—this episode will confront that directly. This is not motivation. This is responsibility.

    #66 People Are Having Sex in Their Sleep… Here's Why w Dr Ben Long

    People Are Having Sex in Their Sleep… Here's Why What sounds like a headline designed for shock value is actually a real, clinically documented sleep disorder. In this episode, Dr. Ben Long breaks down the science behind parasomnias — a category of sleep disorders that includes sleepwalking, night terrors… and yes, sexsomnia. But this conversation goes far beyond strange behaviors at night. We dive into what sleep actually is, why your brain never truly "turns off," and how sleep deprivation begins to rewire your decision-making, emotional control, and long-term health. You'll learn: What's actually happening in the brain during sleep Why you can wake up exhausted after 8 hours The difference between real sleep and being "knocked out" Why sleep medications don't fix the root problem How sleep impacts memory, learning, and behavior The connection between sleep, stress, and identity Dr. Long also explores something most people never consider — the limits of science when it comes to consciousness, dreams, and the human experience. This isn't just about sleep. It's about control, awareness, and what's really happening beneath the surface of your life. 👤 Guest: Dr. Ben Long Dr. Ben Long is a sleep physician specializing in the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders including insomnia, sleep apnea, narcolepsy, and parasomnias. With a background in pediatrics and ongoing theological studies, his work explores both the biological and philosophical dimensions of sleep. 🎙️ Host: Jake Giffin Jake Giffin is an entrepreneur, coach, and podcast host focused on helping men build discipline, clarity, and purpose through biblical principles and psychological frameworks. 🌐 Website: https://www.jakegiffin.com 📱 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thejakegiffin 📱 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thejakegiffin 🎧 Listen to the Full Podcast Available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and all major platforms. 🔔 Subscribe for More Conversations If you want conversations that challenge how you think, not just what you think — subscribe and turn on notifications.
