Manifestation. The Law of Attraction. The Cosmic Christ. The idea that we’re all divine. These aren’t just trending ideas – they’re rooted in the New Thought movement, and according to @MelissaDougherty they’re quietly making their way into the church.
In this interview, Melissa shares her journey from being fully immersed in New Thought beliefs to becoming a bold voice calling them out. She breaks down how these teachings disguise themselves as Christianity – and why so many believers don’t even notice.
She also talks about her brand-new children’s book on the resurrection of Jesus, "The Day That Made The Way" – what inspired it and why teaching kids biblical truth from the start has never been more important.
