What if true healing isn't found in chasing spiritual experiences—but in deeply knowing Christ?

In this episode, Heidi sits down with Psychologist Dr. Anita Marchesani to explore her journey from charismatic Protestant spaces into the historic faith of the Eastern Orthodox Church.

Together, they unpack spiritual discernment in a time when supernatural experiences are increasing—and often misunderstood. This conversation brings clarity to what's truly from God, and how humility, suffering, and surrender shape real transformation.

This conversation opens the door to important questions about how we interpret Scripture, pursue healing, and stay grounded in truth.

In this episode, you'll learn:

Why discernment matters in spiritual experiences
The risks of New Age influence in Christian spaces
The deeper meaning of communion and early Church practices
How true healing is formed through humility and surrender

"Be still, and know that I am God." — Psalm 46:10
