Crunchy Christians Avoiding New Age Deception
Why are so many Christians now embracing the crunchy culture? In this video, you’ll learn what crunchiness means and why this healthful lifestyle can sometimes involve new age practices and teachings.
Angela Mitchell of Raising Apologists and Ashley Sheatz of @WildFedMama on Instagram are joined by Doreen Virtue to discuss some new age pitfalls in the crunchy world, including teachings about frequencies, life force, healing methods, yoga, and eastern meditation.
The video also shows how some companies marketed as clean health brands (such as Method and Young Living) promote occult and new age teachings like divination and astrology.
You’ll learn why some women who are desperate for healing can inadvertently fall into the New Age rabbit hole, and why it’s important to avoid these false teachings.
Ashley and Angela emphasize that everyone’s needs and bodies are different, so there’s no one-size-fits-all formula for healthful living. They both emphasize being grounded in Scripture and avoiding perfectionism. They also discuss raising children with healthful food and how to eat healthfully on a budget. Doreen talks about how she did a “plastic detox” and the positive benefits she has experienced from wearing natural fibers and staying away from synthetics such as polyester.
