    S2E11: Jewish Obsession in American Cults Pt. 1

    This episode explores the origins of Israeli obsession in evangelical culture and begins to uncover the occult origins of Mormonism. Be sure to join in for our next episode as we move deeper into Mormonism, outlining its own reliance on Hebrew identity, and look at another distinctly American cult, the black Hebrew Israelites. How are they all related? And what was the cultural context of the time? Discover the magical practices of Joseph Smith and his family and the mysterious visions of Margaret McDonald and the Irvingite movement, and why Darby and Scofield shaped so much of your life.

    S2E10: Benjamin Boyce Gets A Voice

    Explore a different take as Coleman interviews Calmversations host, Benjamin Boyce. While he is used to doing the interviewing with folks like Jonathan Pageau, Andrew Isker, Joe Rigney, and hundreds of others of a more eclectic strip, the interviewer turns interviewee as Coleman asks the questions and Benjamin gets the mic.

One from Exodus 17 where water is given from the rock and fills the valley. The other from Exodus 15 where bitter waters are made sweet. They come together to say essentially what I presented, but corrections where corrections are due. Links to both sermons below.

    S2E9: My Choctaw Heritage

    Delve into the spiritual crossroads of "Pagan America" in this personal podcast episode, exploring Coleman’s mixed Choctaw and European heritage. Uncover the rich tapestry of Choctaw mythology, from the sacred Nanih Waiya mound to animistic beliefs in Hashtali and Nalusa Chito, rooted in Mississippian mound-building cultures. Contrast this with the Christian gospel’s impact on Native American lands, examining covenantal blessings, curses, and redemption. As a ¼ Choctaw Christian, Coleman reflects on spiritual warfare, sleep paralysis encounters, and the Southeastern Ceremonial Complex’s “Southern Death Cult.” Discover how Native traditions clash with European Christian heritage, offering insights into faith, culture, and personal identity. Perfect for listeners interested in Native American history, biblical perspectives, and spiritual journeys.
