Charisse and Marco share their harrowing experiences with the occult and New Age beliefs, culminating in a transformative encounter with Jesus Christ.
What if your search for spiritual enlightenment opened the door to something far more terrifying than you ever imagined? Tony Merkel sits down with Charisse and her husband Marco as they share an extraordinary testimony of growing up in a family influenced by the occult before years of immersion in New Age beliefs led to a frightening battle with unseen spiritual forces. After exploring practices that promised healing and personal power, Charisse found herself facing disturbing supernatural encounters that pushed her to the brink. Marco reveals what it was like to witness the chaos firsthand as their home, marriage, and family came under relentless spiritual attack. Together, they discuss the generational influence of Freemasonry in Charisse's family, her decades immersed in Wicca, Reiki, and spirit guides, the reality of deliverance, and the life-changing encounter that brought her to Jesus Christ. This powerful testimony explores the realities of spiritual warfare while ultimately pointing to the hope, freedom, and restoration found in Christ.
