  <title>She Asked Her Dead Mother About Jesus: Steve Dabbs on Spiritual Warfare | DDG E77</title>
  <description>&amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;Steve Dabbs says a grieving woman was visited by something wearing her dead mother's face.&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;When she asked it about Jesus, he says the skin peeled away and a hideous creature began blaspheming Christ.&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;Dabbs says he spent 35 years in the military and retired as a senior chaplain. He now takes spiritual warfare cases from around the world, and he argues that practices many people consider harmless can invite something dangerous before they understand the risk.&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;His warning reaches from meditation, tarot, and psychedelics to occult practices passed through families, curses, and attempts to contact the dead.&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;The episode gets into one of the most controversial questions in demonology: where psychiatric illness ends and demonic possession begins. Dabbs describes voices medication did not stop, a psychiatrist who contacted him after a disturbing intake, and cases he believes changed after prayer. The conversation also confronts sleep paralysis, psychological explanations, and how anyone can tell the difference.&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;The conversation eventually becomes personal. Scott talks about losing his father, and the debate about demons gives way to grief, faith, and the kind of answer a chaplain offers when no explanation can make a loss easier.&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;lt;b&amp;amp;gt;CHAPTERS:&amp;amp;lt;/b&amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;00:00:00 The Doorway Question&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;00:00:38 Scott's Summer Message&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;00:04:44 Meet Steve Dabbs&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;00:11:29 How His Spiritual Warfare Began&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;00:25:31 Can Christians Be Demonically Attacked?&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;00:29:03 Possession vs. Demonization&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;00:41:04 Meditation and Spiritual Doorways&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;00:45:35 Psychedelics, Spirits, and Aliens&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;00:50:43 Contacting the Dead&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;00:53:14 The Psychiatrist Who Called Him&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;00:55:59 Generational Doorways&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;00:58:21 Can Loved Ones Return?&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;01:06:26 Why Attacks Happen at Night&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;01:10:31 What Demonization Looks Like&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;01:17:28 Who Should Confront Evil Spirits?&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;01:21:03 Curses and Cracked Doors&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;01:29:46 Occult Curiosity and Meaning&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;01:32:35 The New Orleans Hotel Prayer&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;01:34:39 Suffering, Grief, and Faith&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt; &amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;gt;Disclosure: Some of the links below are affiliate links, which means I may earn a small commission if you purchase through them at no additional cost to you.
