In this powerful episode of the Covenant Eyes Podcast, apologist and author Melissa Dougherty joins us live from NRB to expose a subtle but dangerous ideology sweeping through churches today. Melissa shares her personal journey from "New Thought Christianity" to solid biblical faith, and unpacks the disturbing ways New Thought beliefs like manifestation, positive affirmations, and self-glorifying theology have infiltrated Christian teaching.

🔥 Her new book, Happy Lies, is a must-read for anyone wanting to understand how culture and even some churches have adopted philosophies that sound Christian—but aren’t.

🔍 Learn how movements like the Law of Attraction, Prosperity Gospel, and self-help psychology have roots in metaphysical teachings that distort the gospel.

👀 Whether you're a parent, pastor, or just someone trying to navigate today’s spiritual confusion, this episode offers deep insight and biblical clarity.

📘 Grab Melissa’s book Happy Lies wherever books are sold, and be sure to follow her on YouTube and social media for solid, Christ-centered teaching!
