Faith on the Fringe

Leah used to throw the most coveted witches party in her city every Halloween.Leah and Malaine both drew hard lines around Halloween a year ago, and both of them have moved since. In this episode they talk through whether Christians should celebrate Halloween, what Leah saw happen on that night during her years in the occult, why she says the holiday has helped desensitize a generation to blood and horror, and how Malaine held her family’s conviction this year without making anyone else wrong for theirs. Then they take on the debate over horror movies, fantasy books and Harry Potter, and why Leah has picked her fantasy books back up. They close on what matters more than one night a year: the programming kids take in every single day, how to train a child’s discernment, and why Jesus said His disciples would be known by their love.

Don’t hate on them because they decided to hang up some cobwebs and you didn’t.” -Malaine Lea Butler Key Takeaways Why Malaine handled Halloween so differently this year, and the question a kid on her basketball team asked her. What Leah says happens on Halloween in the occult, from her own years inside it. Why bloodlines matter when you decide which doors your family opens. The difference between practicing witchcraft and being a witch, and why Leah wants you to know it. How Andy Elliott handled the comments after posting his son’s Halloween picture, and what Leah took from it. Why Leah changed her mind on fantasy books, and what she says Harry Potter can teach kids. What Malaine’s daughter told her about mermaids that made her loosen her grip. The previews Leah sat through at a family movie, and the bigger programming she says Halloween distracts from. What Leah did when Jax said there was something in the bathroom, and what she does now. Featured Scripture John 13:35 “By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.” (KJV) Application: Malaine quotes this one near the end, and it holds the whole conversation together. Jesus gave one marker for His disciples, and it was love, so whatever your family decided on Halloween, the way you treat the neighbor who decided differently is the part that shows whose you are. Take your convictions to Jesus, and carry them with love.

Jesus never once punished anyone for asking Him a question. Season two opens with Leah and Malaine questioning everything, starting with the label they just set down and what deconstructing Christianity has actually done to their walk with Jesus. They talk about the cost of leaving the New Age and the cost of this next step, the lifelong Protestant woman who just found out her King James Bible once held fourteen more books, the church councils and close votes behind doctrine people die on, and why forty five thousand denominations should make anybody pause. Malaine explains why Jesus taught in parables and what children already know about asking questions, then reads the Exodus story the way you would read any book for the first time. Leah brings the receipts on when inerrancy and infallibility were formally defined, Catholic and Protestant, and the one question she runs every belief through. They close on fruit, the warfare narrative, and where the show is headed this season, from the Nag Hammadi texts to the Dead Sea Scrolls. JOIN THE FRINGE COMMUNITY ON PATREON: https://patreon.com/Faithonthefringe JOIN OUR MONTHLY BIBLE STUDY HERE: https://supernaturalbiblesessions.com “If this thing I believed my whole entire life was a lie, who would benefit from me believing the lie?” -Leah Steele Barnett Key Takeaways The price Leah and Malaine already paid for leaving the New Age, and what this next step is costing them. What a lifelong Protestant woman learned about her King James Bible, and why it shook her. How close some of the votes behind church doctrine actually were. Why Malaine says Jesus taught in parables, and what every child already knows about questions. What happens when you read the Exodus story the way you would read any book for the first time. The dates Leah gives for when inerrancy and infallibility were formally defined, Catholic and Protestant. The book that first opened Leah’s heart to Jesus, and why she is telling that story now. The one question Leah runs every belief through, and where it usually points. How Malaine reads the fruit of her own life, and why she stopped calling every glitch spiritual warfare. Featured Scripture Matthew 18:3 “And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.” (KJV) Application: Malaine points out that children ask questions all day long, and every answer pulls them closer to the one they are asking. Jesus set the child in the middle of the disciples as the model for the kingdom, questions and all. Come to Him with yours this week. He has never once been threatened by an honest question.

After months of research for this show, Leah and Malaine are ready to say it out loud. They are disciples of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, and they no longer identify as Christians. In this episode they walk through how deconstructing Christianity brought them here, the doctrine they found was written by men far later than they were ever taught, and why Leah tried so hard to be the good Christian girl until the red letters would not let her. Malaine shares the moment a pastor offered to take her out of the system, and what she is building now with no box around it. They also cover where the word Christian came from, the infallible word of God question, original sin, the uproar over Paul, and why they expect the loudest pushback to come from people who already carry the same questions. They close on the joy that shows up when you live the way, the truth, and the life. JOIN THE FRINGE COMMUNITY ON PATREON: https://patreon.com/Faithonthefringe JOIN OUR MONTHLY BIBLE STUDY HERE: https://supernaturalbiblesessions.com “Everywhere I step, the kingdom of heaven is at hand. Because I am the light. I am carrying what he has asked me to carry.” -Malaine Lea Butler Key Takeaways Why Leah and Malaine say this decision brought them closer to Jesus, and the fruit they point to as proof. The freedom in Christ Leah was promised as a new believer, and what she says she actually found inside the religion. What Leah kept running into in Romans and Paul’s letters, and what she did with the questions she could not reconcile. Where the word Christian actually came from, and who first used it. The question Malaine’s pastor asked when she left her church, and why God put weight on her answer. What Leah’s husband told her about belief for two years, and why it used to make her so mad. The one group Leah expects to come after them for this episode, and why she has compassion for them. What stays exactly the same for Eden House and deliverance ministry, and the most peaceful session Malaine has ever had. How you can read someone’s prayer life by the way they respond to a person they disagree with. Featured Scripture John 14:6 “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” (KJV) Application: Leah and Malaine come back to the way, the truth, and the life more than any other phrase in this episode, and it sits underneath the whole decision. Jesus named Himself as the way, a road you walk with Him, and He is the one who brings you to the Father. This week, read the red letters again and ask Him where He wants to lead your next step.

Your biggest cheerleaders will be the people holding the pitchforks. Leah and Malaine both spent years being platformed in the New Age, and both say what they're seeing in Christian celebrity culture right now goes further than anything they saw there. Nobody who ends up exposed online set out to start a cult. Good people with a heart for God get platformed and pedestaled, the work of maintaining the platform starts eating the time they used to spend with Him, pride finds an open door, and the same crowd that worshipped them shows up with pitchforks. Leah goes back to the affiliates she paid tens of thousands of dollars who turned on her hardest, and Malaine talks about the leaders who stop hearing the truth once everyone around them turns into a yes person. The second half turns to the whiplash of leaving the New Age for Jesus. Some swing into legalism and cessationism out of fear of being deceived again. Others land in hyper charismatic circles where the pedestals are even higher. Malaine tells the story of the nanny whose kindness led her to Jesus while she was still running New Age retreats, and Leah explains why it took her a full year to say yes to Him. So if Jesus stood next to you in church this Sunday, would He be thrilled with what He saw? JOIN THE FRINGE COMMUNITY ON PATREON: https://patreon.com/Faithonthefringe JOIN OUR MONTHLY BIBLE STUDY HERE: https://supernaturalbiblesessions.com "Throwing a pitchfork at somebody is not the kingdom of heaven. I'm pretty sure that's a different kingdom." -Leah Steele Barnett Key Takeaways Why nobody who gets exposed online starts out planning to manipulate the body of Christ. The warning Malaine got in the New Age about the woman idolizing her, and how it came true that same year. Why the people who platform you are usually the first to turn on you. How the work of maintaining a platform quietly replaces time with Jesus. What happens to a leader once the people around them become yes people. Why attacking someone online opens a door for you and activates a spirit of offense in them. The two directions ex-New Agers tend to swing: legalism and cessationism, or hyper charismatic circles. What fear of being deceived again looked like in Malaine's first season with Jesus. The nanny who never judged Malaine and ended up leading her to Jesus. Why staying curious and sitting in judgment can't happen at the same time. The one thing Leah was delivered of the moment she said yes to Jesus. Featured Scripture "Those who make them become like them; so do all who trust in them." Psalm 115:8 (ESV) Application: Malaine's point is that whatever we idolize, we start to resemble, deaf and blind to what's in front of us. That goes for a celebrity pastor as much as a carved image. Before you defend or attack anyone in the public eye this week, ask Jesus whether you've handed that person your discernment. Then take it to your prayer closet and let Him show you where your worship has drifted.

Leah had decided a pastor was blasphemous before she had watched a minute of his sermon. A guest cancelled, so this one is off the cuff, and it opens with Leah admitting she did the exact thing this show tells people not to do. She saw clips of Otha Turnbow's sermon on Jesus going to hell, felt the emotional charge, went looking for other people's reactions, and sealed his fate in her mind without going to the source. In this conversation she walks through the rebuke she got in her spirit, what she found when she finally watched the sermons, and why she says the short clip exists to deny you context and sell you a reaction instead. The second half turns toward the economy around all of it. Leah and Malaine cover celebrity Christian culture and who is monetizing what, the Judas spirit running through exposure ministry, how to tell a watchman from an accuser, the man who publicly gave Jenny Weaver seventy two hours to live, and why loyalty to a ministry turns into idolatry faster than anybody expects. They close on holding every ministry loosely, the spiritual covering language nobody can find in scripture, and Jesus inviting the question at the foot of Mount Hermon. JOIN THE FRINGE COMMUNITY ON PATREON: https://patreon.com/Faithonthefringe JOIN OUR MONTHLY BIBLE STUDY HERE: https://supernaturalbiblesessions.com "The truth doesn't need to hide from questioning. The only thing that needs to hide from questioning is deception." -Leah Steele Barnett Key Takeaways Leah walks through her own week of judging a sermon off a clip, and the rebuke that stopped her. Why the kingdom of darkness has an interest in keeping you off long form content, and what the three second hit is actually doing. What Otha Turnbow's sermon on Jesus and hell actually says once you sit through all three of them in full. Both hosts are monetizing, and they explain how an assignment from God and a Patreon can sit in the same hand. The Judas spirit in exposure ministry, and the test Leah uses on how she feels after watching one. How to tell a watchman from an accuser, including the one thing a watchman always does that an accuser never bothers with. The man who publicly gave Jenny Weaver seventy two hours to live, and what she was doing when the deadline passed. Why loyalty to a pastor or a platform turns into idolatry, and what Malaine says happens to your prophetic hearing once it does. The spiritual covering and spiritual father language that neither of them can find anywhere in scripture. Featured Scripture Proverbs 18:17 "He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his neighbour cometh and searcheth him." (KJV) Application: The first version of a story always sounds airtight, which is exactly why God put a second step in the verse. Somebody has to come and search it. A forty second clip is the first voice, and so is the reaction video stacked on top of it, and neither one has been searched by anybody. Leah ran into this in her own week and names it plainly in the episode. Before you form a verdict on a brother or sister, go be the neighbour who searches it, which usually means watching the whole thing and reading the whole chapter.
