John invites Mystika Silverberg, A former member of a New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) church, Mystika Silverberg, to share her escape from the NAR. Mystika, a licensed mental health clinician and street preacher from Upstate New York, discusses her involvement in the NAR movement and the challenges she faced. She describes how she was drawn to the movement, believing it to be the true representation of the church. Mystika recounts how she was identified as an evangelist by a church leader and how this recognition made her feel valued and significant. She explains that her involvement in the movement led her to become deeply involved in deliverance ministry, where she dealt with people believed to be demon-possessed.
Mystika also discusses the fear-based environment of the NAR church, where members were constantly on guard against demons and witchcraft. She describes bizarre and unsettling incidents, such as a church leader manifesting a "python spirit" and the ensuing chaotic deliverance session. Despite the support and recognition she received, Mystika eventually began to question the teachings and practices of the NAR movement. Her growing doubts, combined with prayer and the support of concerned friends, helped her break free from the church. Mystika emphasizes the importance of personal Bible study and understanding scripture to avoid being misled by false teachings.
