We’re a bit overdue in talking about supernatural experiences! I’s time to dive more into demon possession, oppression, or suppression, whatever you want to call it…some say it’s just the way the mind works. Others say it’s spiritual warfare. Either way, it’s not fun, and if demonic oppression is real, it’s not from God.
We welcome Connie Lawson, host of the Weeds Seeds and Beautiful Things podcast, a hard, hope-filled, humorous show that seeks to help you walk in radical faith. Connie is a Christian speaker who has the ability to mix hard truths with honesty, experience, and compassion while giving practical advice and steps for improvement, all while making you laugh. Connie has an intense story and she wanted to be part of the Miracles & Atheists podcast because she believes our listeners would benefit from hearing what the Lord has done in her life.
We’re also pleased to welcome Nick’s friend, Carol Lynn Rivera. Carol Lynn is a CEO, writer, marketer, project manager and podcaster. She enjoys entrepreneurial life and owns multiple businesses including several startups and a marketing company, and Carol Lynn is an atheist, only for the sake of a label (because it’s not her favorite). Carol Lynn wanted to be on the show because she thinks the more we can talk to people with different viewpoints the more we learn to understand, accept and respect them. It’s important for us to be able to learn from each other and even disagree without harboring ill feelings and sowing division.
So have fun digging in MAC (Miracles & Atheists Community)…we’re diving deep today!
