In this episode of Everyday Exorcist, Grant and Kat tackle the question many Christians wrestle with but rarely talk about: Can a Christian have a demon? While both bring personal experience as practitioners, they’re clear that experience alone isn’t enough - everything must be filtered through the lens of Scripture.

Grant walks through 1 Corinthians 10, pointing out that even a Spirit-filled church like Corinth still needed correction. Paul warned them that participating in food sacrificed to idols meant they were, knowingly or unknowingly, entertaining (or hosting) demonic influence. From there, Grant and Kat unpack the difference between salvation and sanctification, explaining how the ongoing work of sanctification can often involve dealing with demonic footholds—doors opened through sin that don’t automatically close the moment someone becomes a believer. In many ways, salvation is just the beginning of the real work.

Kat shares her own powerful story of deliverance and how it awakened her to the need for more believers in the Body of Christ to be trained, equipped, and willing to step into this kind of ministry. The episode closes with a listener call-in question that brings clarity around the gift of tongues and opens a broader conversation about spiritual gifts—especially prophecy—and why these gifts aren’t reserved for a select few, but are available to all believers.

If you’re looking for a biblical framework for why Christians can experience demonic oppression, this episode offers one perspective on why it’s not only possible—but far more common than we often realize.
