The gifts of the Holy Spirit were never meant to build our own platforms or make us into Christian superstars. They were given to strengthen, equip, and serve the Body of Christ. These gifts are meant to be shared, not kept for ourselves.In 1 Corinthians 12:7–11, Paul reminds us that the manifestation of the Spirit is given "for the common good." But what does that actually look like in ministry? What's the difference between a word of knowledge and a word of wisdom? What is the gift of prophecy? Why does Paul mention different gifts of healing? And how can tongues and the interpretation of tongues be used to minister to someone during a healing or deliverance session?In this episode, Grant and Kat unpack each of the gifts of the Spirit and explain how they work together in real-life healing and deliverance ministry. Through practical stories and ministry examples, they show how the Holy Spirit leads believers to minister with love, power, and wisdom as they flow in and out of these gifts.If you've ever wanted to better understand the gifts of the Spirit or grow in using them effectively, this episode will equip and encourage you. The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Our prayer is that this conversation will strengthen your faith and empower you to minister to others with greater confidence and dependence on the Holy Spirit.

Whether you're new to the podcast or have been with us from the start, we hope you love revisiting these classics, and we look forward to being back in August with all-new episodes!020 Doctrine of Demons (Part 1): The Lie of KarmaThe statement “I’m getting what I deserve” often comes from a place of shame, condemnation, or a distorted view of God’s justice. It assumes that pain, failure, or hardship are forms of divine punishment - or that we can somehow earn blessing and favor through our own effort. At its core, this lie partners with a demonic doctrine often referred to as karma.In this episode of Everyday Exorcist, Grant and Kat kick off a new series on the core lies believers often agree with - lies that can open doors to demonic attachment and oppression. They unpack the power of agreement, reminding us that whatever we agree with, we empower. God’s goodness is far greater than we realize, and freedom begins when we change the way we think, repent of false beliefs, and break agreement with the lies that keep us bound.This heartfelt conversation invites listeners to honestly ask: Am I partnering with the lie that I’m getting what I deserve? and to step into the full freedom and identity we have as sons and daughters of God.Originally released October 27, 2025Visit EverydayExorcist.com to share your questions and stories

What steps do you take when you realize the person you are praying for experienced a traumatic accident around their neck injury?As believers and followers of Jesus, one of the commissions Jesus gave us is to heal the sick. If it were as simple as "Be healed in Jesus' Name," then the whole church would walk in this gift confidently, but we know that's not true.In this episode, Grant and Kat talk about the Biblical model for healing today. Following the steps Jesus took in his ministry, they discuss the 5-step prayer model and unpack the importance and nuances of each step when you are praying for healing for those who are in need.Originally released February 12, 2025Visit EverydayExorcist.com to share your questions and stories

In this episode of Everyday Exorcist, Grant and Kat continue their series on common demonic strongholds by tackling one of the most subtle and destructive of them all: control.In previous episodes, they explored fear and lust. Today, they uncover how control quietly takes root in people's lives and often disguises itself as responsibility, success, perfectionism, people-pleasing, OCD, eating disorders, passive aggression, and even strong leadership. What begins as a desire for safety, stability, or peace in a chaotic environment can eventually become a prison that damages relationships, hinders intimacy with God, and leaves people exhausted trying to manage every outcome.Drawing from years of ministry experience, Grant and Kat discuss how control frequently originates in childhood wounds, trauma, or environments where individuals learned to rely on themselves rather than trust others. They explore the spiritual and emotional dynamics behind this stronghold, why it can be so difficult to recognize in ourselves, and how the enemy uses it to keep people trapped in cycles of anxiety, striving, and isolation.The conversation also dives into the relationship between inner healing and deliverance, the role of the Holy Spirit in uncovering root issues, the physical and emotional manifestations of control, and why true freedom often requires patience, surrender, and a willingness to revisit painful places with Jesus. They discuss the challenges of ministering to those caught in deep patterns of control and why healing cannot be forced but must be welcomed.Ultimately, this episode is an invitation to lay down the burden of managing everything ourselves. As believers, we were never meant to carry the weight of control. True peace is not found in controlling our circumstances but in trusting the One who holds all things together. When we surrender our need to control and yield to Jesus, we discover the refuge, freedom, and shalom our souls have been longing for all along.

Most Christians unknowingly wrestle with the belief that they'll always struggle with sin. That victory is impossible and defeat is inevitable. But what if that belief isn't biblical at all?In this episode of Everyday Exorcist, Grant and Kat expose one of the most common lies believers partner with: "I'll never be free from sin." Together, they unpack how this mindset can become a spiritual stronghold, keeping Christians trapped in shame, condemnation, and cycles of defeat.Scripture teaches that through the cross, Jesus not only forgave sin. He broke its power. Your old self was crucified with Christ, and your identity is no longer that of a sinner striving for victory, but a redeemed son or daughter living from victory. Grant and Kat explore what it means to be a new creation, how to renew your mind with the truth of the Gospel, and why believers are called to put sin to death through the power of the Holy Spirit.If you're tired of the shame cycle, struggling with recurring sin, or wondering whether lasting freedom is really possible, this episode will challenge your perspective and encourage you to embrace the freedom Jesus purchased for you.Victory over sin isn't just a future promise - it's a present reality in Jesus.

In this episode of Everyday Exorcist, Grant and Kat are joined by Nate Henry and Luke Rodgers from the Blurry Creatures podcast - a show that began with conversations about Bigfoot and the unexplained, but quickly evolved into deep theological discussions about the unseen realm, spiritual warfare, and the mysteries most people spend their lives ignoring.As Nate and Luke have leaned into conversations surrounding the supernatural, they’ve found themselves face-to-face with the very real clash between good and evil. Together, the crew shares incredible stories of divine encounters, unexpected miracles, spiritual awakening, and the ways the Holy Spirit breaks into ordinary life with extraordinary power.This conversation dives deep into how intertwined the spiritual realm truly is with our everyday existence—and why understanding it changes the way we see faith, fear, authority, and the Kingdom of God.Ignoring the supernatural leaves believers unequipped to confront darkness—and blind to the power and presence of God available to them right now. Whether you’re new to faith, curious about spiritual warfare, wrestling with unexplained experiences, or have followed Jesus for decades, this episode will challenge your assumptions, stretch your imagination, and ignite your faith.If you love Blurry Creatures, are fascinated by the unseen realm, or are hungry for authentic encounters with God, this episode is for you.The supernatural is not dead. The Spirit is still moving. And the stories in this episode may completely redefine the way you see the world around you.

John Paul shares honestly about failure, humility, and the beauty of being real before God instead of pretending to have it all together.This conversation demystifies the supernatural and reminds us that ministry isn’t just for the “super spiritual” it’s for everyday believers willing to say yes to Jesus.

This week, Katherine and Grant unpack powerful stories and key takeaways from recent ministry trips - sharing prophetic moments, healing testimonies, deliverance insights, and practical wisdom for everyday believers learning to minister in the power of the Holy Spirit.Grant shares a compelling testimony involving prayer for someone battling MS, and how spiritual strongholds connected to a past involvement with Islam can sometimes continue to affect the body even after someone comes to Christ. They discuss how certain “open doors” and unresolved spiritual ties can create ongoing oppression - and the authority believers have in Jesus to bring freedom.Kat reflects on what she learned while observing other healing and deliverance sessions, including a fascinating conversation around prolonged, unrighteous grief and how deep heartbreak can sometimes become a foothold for the enemy - especially within family systems and generational patterns.Together they explore why generational roots, inherited brokenness, and spiritual attachments are often connected to the deeper issues people face - and why discernment, compassion, and listening to the Holy Spirit are essential in helping people walk into lasting freedom.This episode is full of practical ministry insight, real stories, and honest conversation about healing, deliverance, grief, generational strongholds, and the transforming power of Jesus.

In this episode of Everyday Exorcist, Grant and Kat share a powerful ministry debrief from Grant’s recent trip to Argentina - highlighting what happens when you speak simple, truth-filled language about the demonic and how it can lead to real manifestation and freedom.They unpack how demons often respond when truth is spoken clearly - just like in Scripture when Jesus spoke in the temple and unclean spirits cried out—and why keeping things practical (not sensational) actually leads to greater breakthrough in deliverance ministry.Then they dive into listener call-in questions, covering topics like:What do deliverance dreams mean spiritually?How do generational sin patterns or “curses” actually work and how do you break them?How can you hear the voice of God more clearly?What’s the difference between body, soul, and spirit?How do you create an environment where kids can encounter God?This episode is full of practical teaching on deliverance, spiritual authority, and everyday ways the Kingdom of God shows up in real life.It closes with a powerful testimony of deliverance, forgiveness, and the restoration of a marriage - a real picture of what freedom in Jesus can look like.
