    Ep 93 | Why Survivors of Ritual Abuse Stay Silent with Jamie Walden & Joshua Collins

    Some stories are difficult to hear—but necessary to confront if we want to understand the reality of evil and the hope of redemption. In this episode, Jay is joined by Jamie Walden and Joshua Collins for a sobering conversation about spiritual warfare, justice, and the reality of satanic ritual abuse. Joshua courageously shares part of his story of experiencing satanic ritualistic abuse as a child and explains why many survivors never speak about what happened to them. The conversation explores trauma-based mind control, the long-term effects of severe trauma, and why these topics are often misunderstood or dismissed. Jamie Walden also shares about his mission for justice and why Christians must take both spiritual warfare and human suffering seriously. Together they discuss how these realities connect to broader cultural conversations, including the Epstein files, and what believers need to understand about the reality of Satanism and spiritual darkness in the world. This episode is not meant to sensationalize evil, but to expose darkness, pursue truth, and point people toward the freedom and healing that Christ offers.

    Ep 92 | Spiritual Warfare in the Church with Dean Vander Mey

    This is a repost of one of our most important and challenging conversations—because the questions it raises are still being asked, and the Church still needs honest, biblical clarity on spiritual warfare. In this episode, Jay sits down with Dean Vander Mey for a raw, grounded, and deeply biblical conversation about demonization, repentance, and spiritual oppression—topics that are often avoided or misunderstood in modern Christianity. Together, they unpack what Scripture actually teaches about spiritual darkness, the reality of the demonic, and how the enemy still works in the lives of believers today.Dean shares powerful firsthand stories from ministry, including encounters in Africa and with families involved in witchcraft, revealing how access is gained, how deception operates, and how the gospel calls believers to stand in truth and freedom. The conversation also addresses one of the most important tensions in spiritual care: discerning the difference between mental health struggles and spiritual oppression, and why both require wisdom, humility, and compassion. If you’ve ever wrestled with questions about deliverance, oppression, or spiritual warfare, this conversation will challenge and strengthen your faith. ***CHAPTERS*** (0:00) Episode Preview (0:41) Podcast Intro (1:06) Picking back up on Deliverance from Evil Spirits / Oppression (2:34) 2 Kingdoms in a War (5:09) Christians Are Not Prepared (6:44) Demons in the Bible and Today (8:48) The Demonized Man in Africa (11:08) A Family of Witch Doctors - Little Susie (13:49) Can Christians be Demonized?

    Ep 88 | How the Enemy Uses Fear to Neutralize Believers with Jamie Walden

    In this episode of the Rules & Tools Podcast, Jay Fettig welcomes back Jamie Walden, author of Omega Dynamics, for a sobering and timely conversation on fear. Together, they explore how fear operates as the primary currency of spiritual warfare, from the fall of Adam to modern culture, and why fear is ultimately rooted in unbelief that God is truly good. Jamie draws on his background in the military and ministry to unpack how fear manifests as pride, self-preservation, and fear of man, and how a shallow gospel often leaves believers vulnerable to bondage. Jay and Jamie share personal testimonies, discuss fear within marriage and leadership, and point listeners back to the freedom found in trusting God’s love and placing our fear rightly in the Lord alone. This episode reminds us that the good fight of faith is choosing belief, trust, and identity in Christ over fear.
