Today, Spencer Dalke discusses with Jac Marino Chen her remarkable journey from New Age spirituality, occult practices, astrology, tarot, and ritual magic to faith in Jesus Christ. Drawing from her personal story, Chen explains how ideas like manifestation, the law of attraction, crystal healing, and spiritual awakening can deceive people into darkness, while highlighting the life-changing power of Scripture, the Gospel, and biblical truth. If you’ve ever wondered about the rise of New Age beliefs, the spiritual realities behind the occult, or how Christians can lovingly engage those searching for meaning, this compelling conversation offers insight, hope, and practical wisdom for navigating today’s spiritual landscape. What is New Age spirituality? Chen’s story finding and exiting the New Age movement. Following Christ from darkness into freedom and grace. “They used Bible verses in rituals. I thought, ‘I’m really getting to know God.’ That’s why I say this all the time: It’s so important to read the Bible for yourself and to be biblically literate.” “I started ravenously reading [Scripture] from Genesis to Revelation. In New Age [spirituality], it’s this endless quest for knowledge. I’m a seeker but never arriving. But in Christ, all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are hidden.” Featured work: Ensnared: Overcoming the Darkness of the New Age and Occult with the Light of God’s Truth Connect with Jac Marino Chen at JacMarino.com and on YouTube, Instagram, and more.
