In this powerful episode of Discerning the Drift, Addie K. Miller exposes the escalating spiritual deception entering the church through contemplative prayer, kundalini yoga, and the emergent/postmodern movement. Continuing her review of Lighthouse Trails’ resources, Addie reveals how yoga’s “serpent power” (kundalini), Lectio Divina, silence-based meditation, and spiritual formation practices are rooted not in Christianity—but in Hinduism, occultism, and Eastern mysticism.

Addie dismantles the myth of “Christian yoga,” shows how contemplative prayer requires altered states of consciousness, and exposes the dangerous belief that normal prayer and Scripture are not enough. She documents the real manifestations of kundalini awakening—trances, shaking, spasms, emotional outbursts, psychic experiences—and draws undeniable parallels to hyper-charismatic “signs and wonders” movements. Finally, Addie begins unpacking the unbiblical teaching that God can only be found “in the silence,” highlighting how Scripture presents a God who speaks and works loudly, clearly, and without mystical techniques.

This episode is a thorough warning—and a call for believers to reject every occult technique masquerading as Christian spirituality.

Dive deep into scripture with Addie as current events, teachings in the modern church, testimonies, trends, important biblical teachings, and the sweeping drift away from the basic truths in the Bible across the modern-day Church are all brought to light to be tested only against the infallible, un-changing, Word of God on Discerning the Drift.

In this episode of Discerning the Drift, Addie K. Miller continues exposing the spiritual dangers of yoga and its complete incompatibility with biblical Christianity.

Drawing from Chris Lawson’s Yoga and Christianity—Are They Compatible?, Addie reveals the dark truth behind the many forms of yoga—karma, kundalini, tantra, and others—all rooted in Hinduism, paganism, and occultism. She explains the true meaning of “kundalini,” or serpent power, and how yoga is designed to awaken this demonic energy within the practitioner.

From “Christian yoga” classes to contemplative practices promoted by emergent leaders, Addie warns that these techniques are not physical exercises or relaxation tools—they are gateways to altered states of consciousness and spiritual deception. This is a sobering call to discernment in a culture that is embracing Eastern mysticism under the guise of wellness and spirituality.

In this episode of Discerning the Drift, Addie K. Miller exposes the unbiblical roots of contemplative prayer and its deep ties to Eastern mysticism.

Drawing from Lighthouse Trails resources by Lynn Lesby Pratt and Chris Lawson, Addie reveals how contemplative practices like Lectio Divina, breath prayer, and meditation techniques mirror Hinduism, Buddhism, and transcendental meditation—not biblical prayer. She also warns against the growing acceptance of “Christian Yoga,” explaining its true meaning as “yoking to the divine” and its roots in Hindu theology and occult philosophy.

From Thomas Merton and Richard Foster to modern church movements and yoga ministries, Addie makes it clear that these practices are leading believers away from Scripture and into spiritual deception.

In this episode of Discerning the Drift, Addie K. Miller uncovers the true nature and origins of Lectio Divina, a mystical practice increasingly promoted in evangelical circles as a form of “praying the Scriptures.”

Drawing from Lighthouse Trails’ research and the writings of mystics like Thomas Keating and Richard Foster, Addie reveals how Lectio Divina is rooted in Catholic monasticism, Eastern meditation, and occult techniques—not biblical study or prayer. She warns how this practice—endorsed by popular teachers such as Beth Moore, Priscilla Shirer, and others—leads believers into altered states of consciousness, self-focus, and spiritual deception.

This episode clearly contrasts biblical meditation, which fills the mind with God’s Word, against contemplative methods that empty the mind and open the door to counterfeit “divine” experiences.

In this revealing episode of Discerning the Drift, Addie K. Miller exposes the labyrinth as a mystical, occult practice falsely repackaged as a Christian “prayer walk.”

Using Carl Teichrib’s research from The Labyrinth Journey, Addie traces the labyrinth’s origins from ancient pagan rituals, esoteric mystery religions, and theosophical societies to its modern adoption by churches and seminaries. She explains how the practice promotes mysticism, self-divinization, and universalism rather than biblical prayer and worship.

From Grace Cathedral in San Francisco to denominational retreat centers worldwide, Addie warns how labyrinth walking has become a bridge for New Age spirituality and interfaith unity, leading believers away from the true gospel of Jesus Christ.

In this hard-hitting episode of Discerning the Drift, Addie K. Miller exposes the blasphemous redefinition of the cross within the postmodern and emergent church movements.

Drawing from Roger Oakland’s Atonement Rejected and other trusted resources, Addie reveals how influential leaders like Brian McLaren, Rob Bell, Alan Jones, Marcus Borg, and others have twisted the meaning of Christ’s sacrifice—calling the blood atonement “barbaric,” the cross “false advertising for God,” and Jesus merely a moral example. Addie contrasts these heretical teachings with the unchanging truth of Scripture: that without the shedding of blood, there is no remission of sin (Hebrews 9:22).

This episode exposes the heart of the emergent deception—its denial of sin, rejection of substitutionary atonement, and abandonment of the biblical gospel—and calls believers to stand firm on the truth of Calvary.

In this episode on the Emergent and Postmodern Church, Addie K. Miller uncovers how today’s so-called “new Christianity” has redefined the Kingdom of God, the Gospel, and even Jesus Himself.

Drawing from Elliot Nesch’s Hath God Said?, Addie exposes leaders like Brian McLaren, Rob Bell, Tony Campolo, and Bono—whose universalist theology replaces the biblical gospel of salvation with a social, political, and environmental agenda. She explains how the “emerging kingdom” is not the spiritual Kingdom of God described in Scripture but a man-made utopia rooted in humanism and mysticism.

Addie reminds listeners that Jesus came to free humanity from sin—not to establish a social movement—and warns that the Emergent Church’s “new gospel” is simply the old Gnosticism dressed in modern language.

🎧 On This Episode of Discerning the Drift 👀🔥📖✝️

Addie Miller examines the growing influence of mysticism and shamanistic practices infiltrating Christianity through hyper-charismatic teachers and emergent leaders.

Addie exposes the teachings of Hindu-turned-charismatic guru Sadhu Sundar Selvaraj, whose necromancy and “heaven tourism” echo the same dangerous extra-biblical revelations promoted by popular figures like Beth Moore, Priscilla Shirer, and New Apostolic leaders. Addie also unpacks how Rob Bell, Brian McLaren, Doug Pagitt, and Tony Campolo twist Scripture, cast doubt on the virgin birth, and replace the gospel of salvation with social justice, environmental utopianism, and universalism.

We are on the brink of mainstream redefinition of Christianity itself—away from the cross and into mysticism, works-based religion, and a counterfeit kingdom built by man rather than God. Christians today need to cling to the Word of God more than ever!
