About this listen

 Let's explore the often-overlooked connection between spiritual warfare & mental health. In this episode, Kristin and Dr. Natalie Atwell—counselor, educator, and long-time advocate for trauma survivors— shine light on the unseen battles many believers face, especially those carrying deep childhood wounds, walking through betrayal trauma, or struggling with destructive sexual patterns.

Dr. Atwell shares the sobering rise she’s seen in her practice of clients entangled in darkness—through trauma, pornography, and even human trafficking—and how these openings can fuel emotional chaos, compulsive behavior, and distorted thinking. She also offers compelling insight into how lies planted in childhood can become spiritual footholds in adulthood… and how Jesus meets us right in those places with truth, power, and freedom.

You’ll hear:
  • Why spiritual warfare can masquerade as mental-health symptoms
  • How trauma makes us vulnerable to lies—and how those lies can be broken
  • The subtle ways the enemy gains influence through culture, coping strategies, and popular practices
  • How deliverance, counseling, and trauma-informed care work together
  • What hope looks like for betrayed partners who feel crushed under the enemy’s attempts to steal, kill, and destroy
  • Why God’s heart is fiercely protective of the vulnerable—and how He restores what darkness tried to ruin

Whether you’re battling unwanted sexual behavior, healing from betrayal, or simply trying to understand the spiritual dynamics beneath today’s struggles, this episode offers clarity, compassion, and deep encouragement.

Jesus is stronger than every force that comes against you—and even in the ashes, He is already rebuilding.
