Episode 119: Mediums, the Bible & Faith Online - Johanna Liana, Part 2

Christa Season 1 Episode 119

In Part 2 of our conversation with Johanna, we explore her journey of untangling New Age beliefs after coming to know Jesus. She opens up about visiting a medium out of desperation to connect with her late brother - something she now sees as spiritually dangerous.

We talk about how she began growing in her faith, learning to read the Bible using tools like the SOAP method, and how The Chosen helped her understand Scripture in a fresh way. Johanna also shares the cost of coming out as a Christian online, the potential of loosing followers, and the new boldness she’s found through her podcast Let Go & Let God.

Whether you're new to faith or navigating spiritual confusion, Johanna’s honesty and clarity will encourage you to pursue truth and live it out in IRL and online - even if it costs.
