The Deliverance Ministry Trap- Trauma, Shame, And Spiritual Abuse

John and Frannie examine the world of deliverance ministry, spiritual warfare, and charismatic healing culture through personal experience, historical context, and concern for people wounded by fear-based religious systems. They discuss how trauma, anxiety, shame, depression, and unresolved pain can be reframed as demons, curses, witchcraft, or spiritual attacks, leaving people trapped in cycles of fear instead of finding real help. The conversation also explores William Branham, Gordon Lindsay, John Alexander Dowie, IHOPKC, Morningstar, Todd Bentley, Bob Jones, Rick Joyner, and the broader charismatic systems that normalized deliverance culture. John and Frannie ask whether ministries claiming to heal people have safeguards for trauma, whether untrained leaders should handle serious mental health struggles, and why therapy, stability, and honest care can become threatening inside high-control religious environments. ______________________ Weaponized Religion: From Christian Identity to the NAR: Paperback: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1735160962  Kindle: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DCGGZX3K  ______________________ - Support the channel: https://www.patreon.com/branham  - Visit the website: https://william-branham.org
