    There Are Angels Living Among Us — The Crown, The Calling, and the Handbook

    There are angels living among us—and most people don’t even realize it. In this episode of Angels & Side Quests, I share one of the deepest revelations God has ever shown me: that angels are not just in heaven or moving invisibly around us… but present on earth, living among people, walking in everyday life—often without even knowing who they are. Rooted in scripture, including Bible passages like Genesis 6, Colossians 1:16–17, and Hebrews 13:2, this episode explores the reality of angels on earth, the difference between fallen beings and those sent by God, and what it means for how we see the people around us. But it doesn’t stop there. I also share a life-changing encounter with an angel who revealed something called the Crown of Angels—a moment that redefined my identity, my calling, and my spiritual authority. In this episode, we explore: The truth about angels living among usThe biblical foundation for angels on earthThe difference between the fallen (Nephilim) and those sent by GodWhy God would place angels among peopleThe revelation of the Crown of Angels and what it meansHow God prepares His people for purpose in the last daysThe arrival of two seraphim and the introduction to The Handbook of the AngelsYou’ll also hear how the Handbook reveals: How heaven actually movesWhat activates angelsWhy praise is more powerful than most people realizeAnd why God is allowing things to shake in this seasonThis isn’t just about angels.

    Angels Over the Nations — What They Revealed About What’s Coming

    I met angels assigned to different regions of the world—and their message was the same. In this episode of Angels & Side Quests, I share a powerful encounter with angels who watch over the nations of the earth, each sent with a message about the state of the world and what God is calling His people to do right now. These weren’t vague impressions. They were direct. Specific. And deeply consistent across every region. From the United States to Europe, Asia, South America, and Africa, each angel revealed the same core truth: God has been present. God has been protecting. But now… God is calling people back to Him. We are living in a time where: nations are shakingtruth is being challengedfear is amplifiedand uncertainty is everywhereBut this episode isn’t about fear. It’s about understanding the purpose of the shaking and learning how to stand firm when everything around you feels unstable. In this episode, I cover: Encounters with angels assigned to regions of the worldThe repeated message heaven is sending to the nationsWhy God allows shaking—and what it revealsA conversation with the angel Michael about shaking the foundationsA warning from the angel Rafael about global change and instabilityWhat it means to stand firm in uncertain timesHow to stay grounded in truth when everything is shiftingThis message is not about panic. It’s about preparation. Because the same God who allows shaking… is the God who holds you steady.

    Your Passion Isn’t Random — The Cherubim and Your Assignment

    Some angels care about peace. Some care about weather. Some care about childbirth, animals, or love. And what I was shown… changes how you see yourself. In this episode of Angels & Side Quests, I share encounters with cherubim — the angels who execute the will of God — and what they revealed about how heaven actually works. Cherubim are not random. They are assigned. Focused. Purposeful. And according to what I was shown… so are you. We often think our passions are just personality traits — things we happen to care about. But what if they’re not random at all? What if the things that pull at your heart… the things that bother you when they’re wrong, or excite you when they’re right… are actually connected to your assignment? In this episode, I walk through: The role of cherubim and how they carry out God’s willThe three types of cherubim and what they doEncounters with angels assigned to peace, weather, childbirth, animals, and loveHow angels respond to obedience (including the fall of Jericho)The connection between spiritual gifts and purposeWhy your passion may be the clearest indicator of your callingWe are living in a time of uncertainty — politically, emotionally, and spiritually. But heaven is not confused. God is still assigning purpose. And angels are still moving. If you’ve ever wondered why certain things matter so deeply to you… this episode will help you see it differently. Because maybe your passion isn’t random. Maybe it’s your assignment. Listen, reflect, and ask God how what He placed inside you can be used. If this episode spoke to you, share it with someone who’s searching for purpose.

    I Met The Devil One Night

    In this episode of Angels & Side Quests, Angela Crystal shares a deeply personal story from her spiritual journey — the night she was awakened by violent commotion in her bedroom and later learned that a spiritual battle had taken place. Through encounters with angels like Mario, Rayleo, Cryshantante, and Shakanstante, Angela reflects on what it means to stand firm in faith when intimidation, deception, and fear try to take control. The experience revealed a powerful truth: evil survives on intimidation, but it collapses when confronted with the authority of God. This episode explores the spiritual concept of “the Sword of Righteousness,” the power in the name of Jesus, and why truth is the greatest weapon against fear, lies, and spiritual warfare. Angela also connects this lesson to the uncertainty many people feel today — from global conflict to cultural confusion — and explains why learning to recognize and resist spiritual intimidation matters now more than ever. This is not a story about fear. It’s a story about exposure, authority, and the truth that God’s will cannot be stopped. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by fear, doubt, or the noise of the world around you, this episode will remind you that truth is still the strongest weapon you have. Topics in this episode: Spiritual warfare and faith Angel encounters and divine protection The power of the name of Jesus Standing firm in uncertain times Truth vs deception Christian spiritual authority
