An episode guaranteed to stop you in your tracks. Brandon and Lindsy sit down with Katie Asher, whose son Houston—a non-speaking autistic young man—opened a supernatural window into identity, frequency, faith, and healing. From vaccine injury to the mystery of the Hill, from church hurt to spiritual gifts most believers can’t even fathom, this is not just a testimony—it’s a paradigm shift. If you’ve ever questioned the nature of communication, healing, or what it means to believe God in the hardest places, don’t miss this one.Purchase book, The Book of Heaven https://a.co/d/54RdAGQFind recommended links on website https://www.asher.house/our-services-1Follow our social channels and learn more here https://linktr.ee/asherhousehopeTimestamps:01:20 Guest intro – Katie Asher02:00 Autism as spiritual imprisonment05:00 Developmental differences in sensory pruning07:30 Vaccine injury and inflammation10:00 Aluminum and cytokine storms12:00 Katie's faith journey14:30 Trauma, theology, and survival16:50 Houston’s early symptoms19:00 Medical discrimination against disabilities21:30 Abandonment by church community24:00 Theology of fatalism vs faith28:40 The cost of bad theology31:00 The pain of church exclusion33:30 Houston’s "turtle" prophetic moment35:30 Creation’s frequency and language38:00 Houston returns to church40:00 Frequency sensitivity explained42:00 The language of energy44:30 Biblical use of stones47:00 Katie's skeptical breakthrough50:20 Houston says “I love you”52:00 Houston's first full communication54:00 Houston hears thoughts57:10 Frequencies, healing, and truth59:30 Stones and the Word of God01:02:00 Energy discernment in spiritual spaces01:04:30 Intention and Christian authority01:06:45 The Enlightenment’s influence01:09:10 Telepathy in non-speakers01:13:00 IQ tests and their flaws01:16:30 Why letter boards are necessary01:20:00 Eugenics and the autism label01:23:20 Why aptitude matters more01:25:40 What is “The Hill”?01:28:00 Discernment vs spiritualism01:30:20 How to build faith01:32:40 Communion, frequency, and Christ01:34:50 Spirit-matter integration01:37:30 The three rulers in one body01:39:45 Most non-speakers intuitively know Jesus01:42:00 Grounding spiritually and physically01:44:30 Feminine nature and balance01:46:30 God’s intentionality in design01:49:20 Closing prayer

What happens when good intentions toward biblical faithfulness lead to legalistic bondage? In this episode, we’re unpacking MORE THAN JUST the growing trend of Torah-keeping, feast day observance, and dietary codes among modern believers. Our returning guest, Dr. R.L. Solberg, takes us deep into his new book The Law, The Christ, The Promise—a verse-by-verse apologetic study of Galatians that lays out the dangers of blending Old Covenant rituals with New Covenant freedom. From practical theology to table fellowship, from legalism to love, this conversation is rich, nuanced, and deeply encouraging for anyone wrestling with law, liberty, and living out their faith in Christ.Grab the book here-->https://amzn.to/3SDCcmhDr. R.L.

Brandon and Lindsy sit down with Michael Miller—pastor, teacher, and co-host of Remnant Radio—to tackle everything from charismatic excesses and cessationism to biblical boundaries and the power of intention.

What if the chaos in conspiracy communities was by design? In this thought-provoking conversation, we’re joined by a guest who's no stranger to the shadowy overlaps of fringe beliefs, government psyops, and the supernatural. We crack open the “Cass Sunstein Effect” and explore how psychological manipulation, social media echo chambers, and even the church contribute to a distorted search for truth. From demons to disinformation, from Crowley to cryptids, nothing’s off the table in this deep-dive into discernment, deception, and discernment again.

Let’s just say this isn’t your average history recap. In the final episode of our Operation Paperclip series, we connect the dots between Nazi scientists, modern surveillance, moral decay, and the spiritual consequences of trading ethics for technological progress. From Neuralink to data manipulation, we peel back the shiny lab coat to expose the sinister roots—and lasting legacy—of Paperclip. The crew gets raw about the church’s prophetic role, fifth-generation warfare, and whether we’re building the next Babel.

Get ready, folks, because we're diving deep into the shadowy world of Operation Paperclip—again! This time, it's Lindsy's turn to take the reins as we uncover the dark reality of N∆ℤ! war criminals and scientists who weren’t just brought over for their rocketry skills but were also deeply entangled in intelligence, chemical warfare, and Cold War espionage. From Klaus Barbie's twisted post-war career to the murky alliances forged under the guise of anti-communism, this episode exposes how far the U.S. was willing to go in the name of national security.

We’re diving back into the rabbit hole with the second installment of our Operation Paperclip deep dive. This week, we’re peeling back the layers of history’s biggest "science fair gone wrong," exposing how Nazi scientists were recruited by the U.S. government for rocket science, biological warfare, and psychological research. Was it all for the greater good, or just a convenient way to whitewash some seriously shady pasts? We tackle the ethics, the cover-ups, and the creepy connections between power and the occult.

Alright folks, buckle up, because this episode is diving headfirst into the deep and often heated debate about the age of the earth. Is it young? Is it old? Is there a middle ground? To help us navigate these theological and scientific waters, we brought back the brilliant Carey Griffel of Genesis Marks the Spot. We break down different perspectives—young earth, old earth, theistic evolution—and tackle how these views shape our understanding of Genesis, inspiration, and even God’s character. And of course, we sprinkle in some humor, some tinfoil-hat moments, and a whole lot of nerdy theological goodness. By the end, you might not have all the answers, but you’ll definitely have some new questions!https://www.genesismarksthespot.com/https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100012258279645Timestamps:01:19 Recap of previous discussion02:02 Overview of different views on the age of the earth02:32 How science and faith intersect03:24 The impact of one's view of inspiration04:22 Breaking down Young Earth Creationism05:48 Problems with a strict Young Earth perspective07:42 The literary structure of Genesis 109:07 The importance of Day Seven in creation10:48 Concordism and attempts to reconcile science and the Bible12:26 Ken Ham’s perspective and issues with dogmatic approaches14:19 Understanding ancient vs. modern views of history16:02 Genesis as polemic against ancient Near Eastern views18:25 Why Day Seven is the focal point of creation19:37 The theological importance of Genesis to the whole biblical narrative21:26 Old Earth Creationism explained23:10 The Bible as an ancient text with divine inspiration26:14 The role of story and history in biblical interpretation29:01 Defining Old Earth vs. Young Earth perspectives31:28 Theistic evolution and its theological challenges35:46 Science as a tool, not an ultimate authority38:01 The problem of scientism in theological debates41:04 Carey’s take on evolution and the age of the earth42:52 When does Theistic Evolution go too far?45:31 Apologetics: Should it be about defense or attack?46:43 The supernatural element missing in some perspectives48:56 Cosmic Temple theology and the significance of Genesis 1-252:39 Free will, chaos, and God's sovereignty57:55 Future hope and exploration in the new creation01:02:21 How Christians should handle conflicts between science and faith
