I'm also an ex-witch (Wiccan) who became Christian. Thank you for sharing your testimony, Sarah Anne!

I am starting my journey from New age stuff to Christianity. It is a whole new way of thinking. I am excited, and it feels right.

That was so encouraging! It really hit home when Sarah said Satan uses truth and distorts it! That is exactly how I got sucked in to the JW cult! It took me much longer to find Jesus than it did Sarah. I am 58 in 6 days and I was baptised 3 days ago on Easter Sunday. I am still in the healing stage but I feel the love and peace and I am finally free. God bless Sarah.

When my wife and i started dating, she was into new age stuff (i didnt know for a couple weeks in) but i was/am neck deep in michael heiser, chuck smith, walter martin etc … so i was well equipped to deal with it, when it reared its ugly head haha. I had been praying relentlessly for her the whole time, anyway. She showed me her tarot cards once (the night i realized she was into new age) and obviously that was a huge troubling red flag in my soul… but the still small voice said stay calm and tell her the truth. So i asked her if she did ouija … to which she said no way, thats evil and demonic…. So i replied… who do you think you’re talking to with those cards? Same demons. She got so sick looking and tossed all of her new age crap. I shared Jesus with her and she understood and repented and put her faith in Him and Him alone. That was about a year ago when she was born again, and her journey to the truth with me took about two months. God answers prayer, people.

My apartment neighbors are Trans and Wiccan. They have sage on their door to ward off evil. There are bells on the door knob, a couple pumpkins and an orange slice and a Wiccan calendar. They burn sage and make altars. My door has all the names of Jesus on it!

I met Sarah when we were in college and she was a new Christian. We enjoyed working together at an outdoor theater, and she still has the same beautiful smile. Thanks for sharing your testimony, Sarah!

It’s always so interesting to talk to a Wiccan and they’re like “But this works! I’m getting everything I want!” And I’m just like “Yah. That’s the idea. But it’s at the cost of your immortal soul.” They don’t understand that just because it makes you feel good, doesn’t mean it’s good for you. It’s a spiritual instant gratification addiction.

Thank you for this video. I’m currently going through what Sarah and the other lady on your channel spoke about founding God after practicing witchcraft. I’m a 17 year old and can’t explain the timing on founding your channel and these videos other then Gods timing. It feels like I have finally opened my eyes to see the truth.

This hits home. Growing up in a haunted house is an experience for sure. Most people think you're mad / a liar but it's so great when you meet somebody who also has had experiences.

I just saw a spell book in my local Michael’s Craft store. Evil isn’t hiding any longer.

I could listen to her for hours. I was never into witchcraft but I had a decade of severe mental illness that went away immediately through deliverance. I totally agree that suicidality is demon-related.

Thank you for your testimony. Too many Christians close their eyes and pretend this doesn't exist.

I would love to do an interview like this. Jesus saved my life and my soul! I used to believe in and practice new age and occult practices. Spell work and all of it. Until I was attacked. When I say there’s power in His very name! 🙌🏽 Thank you, Jesus.

SO GLAD Jesus revealed himself to me as a teenager. Jesus is my identity, and heaven is my destiny!

I loved the way she was so real, unrehearsed but in a very refreshing way. She was so eager to share her story that she went off on a tangent and then asked ‘what was I saying?” 🤣. That is so me! Loved this interview. Thank you Sarah for sharing your story and testimony with us.

I so identify with her story. Although not a witch, I was involved in the occult and Ouija boards. I understand her hesitation to tell her story because so many Christian’s get very weird about it which always leaves me baffled. My own parents discredit my conversion which happened through use of a oujia board. God used my blinded actions to coordinate a heavenly intervention that saved my life. Although my parents can’t discredit the change that happened in my life, they can’t accept the way it happened which is okay. It’s my story not theirs, but it is truly like the lights came on in my mind and I’ve never gone back. Jesus is all there is for me. He gave me back my life and I love Him dearly. I have to be cautious whom I share my story with. Christians who should get it the most, don’t always.

Hello! Sharon here from South Africa 🇿🇦. Thank you for your platform! I just discovered it today. So good to see that, even though there's so much dark activity- the heat is certainly turned up higher in these days (satan isn't hiding anymore). There's a lady, Portia Mohau, who's now a pastor and she was very deep into witchcraft (was a sangoma) + a satanist in her past. In one of her testimonies, she describes how some people came for her; ery mad at her, out of the blue, telling her to put her renovations to a halt. It turned out that she was disrupting a hidden demonic "nest" that had been built under the house many yrs ago. There was an entire hall linked to the kingdom of darkness that was active right under her house. That was very interesting and shocking! Thanks again, and may God bless you and cover you as you expose darkness.🙏🏾

Great interview. Sarah Ann describes witchcraft, demons and the work of the enemy in a way that makes me also understand what most of us see on TV and life as paranormal phenomena, ghosts, tarot cards, and mediums with messages. Yes it is all real, and it’s to be avoided. Thank you.

I spoke to a friend in college about my demonic experience as a teen and she looked at me very crazy… I don’t think she believed me one bit 😂 but if it weren’t for those experiences my belief in Jesus Christ would not be as strong as it is today! God uses everything for His glory in the end! ❤️ I really related to what she said in the beginning about how a-lot of Christians( or people in general) don’t want to think about how REAL and sometimes scary the supernatural realm is…

God is just sooooooo good. He can pull us up out of the darkest depths and reclaim us as His own. We are HIS and NOTHING can seperate us from Him

They’re not attached only to people, there are territorial demons. That is why some cities are horrific, because the principalities ‘in charge’ of that locale are wreaking havoc over everything. That is the same reason that familiar spirits ‘haunt’ locations. They’re assigned regions to disrupt as much as possible.

So informative and moving! "The sheep hear his voice." I was especially touched by the prayer Sarah prayed when she gave her life to God. So many lessons to glean from how God transformed Sarah's life!!!!!

This is fascinating. Thank you for having this conversation. My brother is involved in New Age stuff so I found this very informative. New Age is all over where I live. Please talk to more ex-new agers about that. Thank you!

I had a friend who is Wiccan and I cut off our friendship after visiting her one time. Her and her friends all believed the same stuff and it was like “The Immortal Instruments” book series (there was one movie too). She believed she had and her friends had powers, even though they didn’t really work around me, and it was like they were living out their own personal DnD campaign, where each person kept layering on more and more story. It was both creepy and intellectually fascinating at the same time. I hope that they all got away from that stuff, but I honestly want nothing to do with any of it. Great discussion, and keep up the awesome work you’re doing Dr. McDowell.

When I was a freshmen in high school my family moved from LA to Fresno. The house we moved into was definitely haunted because the previous owners would practice witchcraft. Our neighbors told us and one day we found those star looking thing with a circle on the roof. I would walk to my school bus and on the way one day an old lady stopped me and she invited me in and I went in and she made me a sandwich and then she asked me if I called Jesus into my life I said no and she told me to close my eyes and repeat a prayer calling Jesus into my life. She was a old woman I know she probably has passed but I am forever thankful for her because that was crazy out of a group of kids she stopped me and at the time I felt like I was being tormented from sounds and just over all fear was becoming over baring.

Thank you for such an honest interview. And for exposing witchcraft for what it really is

Please pray for my daughter. I just found out that she is practicing the occult. It's breaking my heart and it has been hidden for over a year . Thank you and God bless all of our "STOLEN" children. I blame myself for not encouraging her to attend church after her father /my husband passed away. I believe that there's a lot anger there. Please intercede with me to the Lord our God for her salvation.

Thank you for covering this very real and impactful topic and thanks to Sarah for sharing her story and testimony.

This woman is a real jewel, so smart and interesting , I just love her! Glad she is on our team

Great conversation between Dr. Sean and Sister Sarah Anne. There seems little to add right now, except to point out that the most powerful spell is the God-spell, which is shortened to Gospel. God bless!

Wow! I’m 60 and I can name a few of my peers when I was growing who were just like this. I saw demons when I was 9 and called on Jesus and they left. But, I saw this around me. I’m so sad to hear about Sarah’s dad.

Sean almost did not have to talk; he could have just started the conversation, sat back, and enjoyed his show. It was well done, and the interviewee was refreshing to listen to.

Thank you Sarah. So important to be honest and open about these things.

So love these stories! Another really good one!

I would love to see a discussion between an evangelical deliverance minister and a catholic exorcist. Isiah Saldivar and Vincent Lampert for example 🙏 I think we can learn a lot from them sharing their experiences.

I was 12 when I asked Jesus to give me powers to levitate people whom I felt were tormenting me at girlscout camp. It was our last day. But instead, they miraculously left me alone.

I lived in a haunted house my self when I was a child I can only remember things from 6 to about 8 years old that happened to me in that house. When I got older I became a paranormal investigator and started my own team. I am a Christian now but it was quite the journey lol.

Thank you! Your testimony is wonderful. So true; “there is no love in witchcraft, it’s all divination and power.” ✨💖💪✝️🕊️💖✨

She mentioned "thin space". Its also an expression used in Celtic Christianity.😃 Great interview.

Wow!!! What a testimony and dynamic speaker. It'd be awesome to have her back to discuss other issues she struggled with..

Yes, she is right about Christians, even pastors not wanting to speak about demons or witchcraft or many other things that are in the Bible. We are not to pick and choose what we want to talk about in the Bible.

Thank you for sharing this powerful testimony.❤❤❤

Thank you for sharing! What a powerful testimony.

To anyone that might be reading this, I wish that whatever is hurting you or whatever you are constantly stressing about gets better. I wanted to give some positivity out to anyone that might need it since I'm going through a very dark time myself now. Whoever is willing to read this, just do: May the dark thoughts, the overthinking, the doubt exit your mind right now. May clarity replace confusion. May peace and calmness fill your life... even tho current times are challenging and some of you might go through tough times now I sincerely wish everyone that happiness enters your hearts and let all the stress and sadness vanish out of your life...as you know nothing in life is ever easy, but what's important is that you keep going! you're worthy of love and happiness, never allow anyone to tell you otherwise! It can be extra hard sometimes but stay strong and hang in there, your life matters, no one can replace you, I'm thankful you're born and I'm sure your struggles will pass soon! I wish all of you plenty of health and strength during any current tough times you face. Remember you are strong, you got this! never forget that! sending much love over towards all of you, May Jesus or what ever you might believe in bless you the way you need it to! ♥️🌟

Thank you both, great interview.

Wow thank you so much for this testimony! This was really helpful to me. I was struggling because I believe I was delivered from the spirit of suicide, but so many others say you can’t have a demon after you’ve been saved. And I’ve been saved for years and for years I was tormented by this thing. Telling me to end myself and told me different ways to do it. I never even recognized that it was demonic until finally out of desperation I went to a deliverance service. Nothing extreme happened except I wailed and sobbed when the spirit of suicide was being cast out. Afterwards I felt lighter like a weight was literally off my shoulders. And those voices telling me to end myself were gone. I believe it was possible that it was a generational curse or something. Suicide runs in my family. I just really appreciate Sarah’s testimony and she and I share the same first and middle name and I believe I was led to watch this! God bless you all and praise Jesus that demons still flee from His name!

My mum went to a witch one time and that night we heard the sound of marbles rolling onto the floor in our bathroom.

Awesome interview

Thank you for sharing so we can get a better education and share with the younger people

This was so good and she’s so genuine!

Loved the testimony thanks

Thank you. So important to understand how the occult is playing out in current culture. Also, beautiful how Christ seeks out and finds the lost. All of us that!

Super interesting.. thank you 😇💓💓💓

Beautiful sharing!

Great testimony!! May God continue to bless and cover her!

Awesome and amazing both of you.👍👍🙏🛐✝️ Please have her back again.

❤loved your testimony ❤ Sarah

Incredible story. God bless you, Sarah!

Thanks for sharing the truth about demons towards the end .

Sean - youre a great listener

Amazing!

demons do attach to locales and objects. principalities are mentioned in scripture

Interesting to hear you say that people need deliverance from demons regularly! Sounds like Michael Heiser, who says it is a regular thing in parts of Africa. What I mean is, he’s mentioned that it’s actually part of church services, and/or learning in seminary.

Just founf yout channel today and i love your content, especially the ex witch stories

we all as a society have to work on not oversing the word "like"

I tried hard to listen to this interview, but I got lost in her continuous talking and rambling. I made it 25 minutes, but the interview didn't seem to be going anywhere so I threw in the towel. Maybe timestamps in the description would help so we could go to specific sections? 🤷🏻‍♀️ Just a thought.

Thank you sean and sarah anne.

Fascinating! What a beautiful and wise woman. I’m Catholic, so within our tradition we always have a priest bless a new home and clean it out, so to speak. And if any crazy stuff is going on in a house, you call an exorcist priest! We have a good friend that is an exorcist priest that makes house calls for Protestant pastors all the time. You would be surprised how common it is.

Ah, looking forward to this, especially after your post! If you read this Sean, would you consider changing the notification settings for your channel for when you premier new videos so we can choose to add them to Watch Later on the notifications? Other channels have such options, but I can only choose to swipe away the notification or tap on it to watch now when I get new video notifications for your channel. I want to see pretty much all of your new content! Keep up the good work!

I sat here and listened to her full story glory be to God ❤

Can we get a part 2 on this? I literally just sub'd to your channel because of this video. Thank you

Love your personalety, God bless you in Jesus Name❤thankyou for sharing Sarah and Sean for your channel

Part two please

Really encouraging

Also good resources on these topics are the channels for Melissa Dougherty, Doreen Virtue, and Angela Ucci of the Heaven & Healing Podcast channel. Great video! I love these testimonies from the dark to the Light.

Sarah, I really hope you write your autobiography and share with the world🙏❤️

There are a flood of kid and teen witch shows right now. Even the adults show 'The Good Witch' is on. Makes me sick and so angry that these shows are targeting kids!

Oujia boards are really useful things! They make such wonderful kindling.

i went in a haunted house halloween 2005 and there was this person that was dressed like a demon that just stared at me. Nobody with me saw them. i think it was a real one.

Wow, don't hear about this very often! Sure to be good

God Bless this woman! Listening to her I can't help thinking about the teachings of Dr. Michael Heiser who wrote The Unseen Realm! Sadly, he recently passed away, but his teachings have very much opened the reality of the spiritual world going on around us! He was a magnificent man of God & the world is worse for his loss. But he now rests in the arms of Jesus whom he loved so much. 💔 ❤

I was never a witch or practiced witchcraft, but I have had minor experiences with spirits and the supernatural. There was a time when I was 15/16, when I wanted to believe that I had "power" of some kind. I would walk to school, and wish that I could change the color of the stoplights along the way, so that I could walk across the street without needing to stop at the light, that it would be a walk sign, instead of a no walk sign. So in my mind, I would focus, sort of go into a cleared mind state, and try snapping my fingers. The first couple weeks, nothing happened, but I kept trying, and then after a while, it started to actually work, and pretty consistently. I can look back now and figure that it's quite possible that something demonic came across me wanting to do this thing, and that he wanted me to believe that I had power. So he would maybe cause the light change to happen on my behalf. And that maybe he hoped that I would subsequently seek out more power, and get pulled into things that are demonic in nature. Fortunately, God had a plan much different for me. I praise His foresight, His mercy, and His love for me. It was still many years before I got saved, but I'm incredibly grateful of the Lord, for His sacrifice, and for His blessings in my life. I now have the Source of all power watching over me, protecting me, and giving me new, perfected life after this one is over. I will always praise Him for what He's done in my life. Anyway, I appreciated her story, even if I believe that the majority of "deliverance ministry" is a bunch of hooey. I don't believe the vast majority of people need deliverance, especially don't need it "on a regular basis" as deliverance ministry often teaches. While Jesus definitely did cast out demons, and later His disciples were also given that authority, there is nothing biblical about the idea that it needs to be done again and again on the same people because the demons keep coming back, or some other similar idea. However, I think some people certainly need deliverance when first coming to Christianity, especially those coming from a background that involves witchcraft, satanism, or other forms of paganism. I do believe in attachments, and that demonic spirits can attach to anyone, even to Christians, and even while I believe that Christians can't be possessed. I believe attachments and possession are two different things.

I was listening to this particular testimony during an early morning workout away from my house. A few days afterward, I had an experience that left me speechless and "shook." I often wonder if the two events were/are related. I am sure that Sean will not see this, but I could explain further if he was interested. Blessings,

Omgosh she could be my sister ( except my mom was the Wiccan ) we too had masons and Eastern Star folks .. but I was sent to Mormon churches growing up .. yeah sooo can relate ! My mom would “ cast “ bad spells … wishing harm on others .

Fantastic conversation! Thank you both!

Part 2!

Wow God bless you Sarah🙏

Great testimony. I recently listened to an episode on a haunted house in the Podcast THE EXORCIST FILES. Great dramatized series of people affected by demons and the way out. In that episode it is also explained what things really are.

Thanks for this interview. Honestly to myself too I still cant share my past as a testimony to anyone except my wife about me doing cards and i call it numerology that accurately predicts each persons personality. I ask thr Lord for His right timing for me if I have to share it to anyone and I know His purpose is to help that person if that happens

step by step like the conquest

I’m having trouble following her train of thought…ahhhh

It's an unfortunate thing that she says Christians get weird about the supernatural. When this subject is evident throughout scripture. I mean, God is spirit. He IS supernatural and those that worship HIM, must worship in Spirit and Truth. Also, our very real enemy and his companions are spirit, supernatural beings. Paul tells us we do not wrestle against flesh and blood. So on and so forth. Funny thing is that non believers generally have no problems believing in Ghosts and spirit entities. They even worship them and submit to their power and authority.

Thats was a beautiful testimony! Praise God for his son Jesus for saving us from so many sins and things we done ❤️God bless you Sarah ❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👍

My memories are so messed up. Some I know I experienced, (NEVER EVER USE A OUIJA BOARD), other memories are just flashes the rest is just blank.

Sir McDowell 🙏 the patience of Job

I am always so dissapointed in the thinking of an either/or existence rather than the possibility of both existing at the same time .

great show...my birthday is also 4/26....synchronicity? been wondering how being a Christian and right hand magic was possible.

I was watching this on my tv and seen something at 10:08 start looking on the table behind her. You need to look good starting at 10:08

I just wanna add that childhood trauma also create deep wounds in the spirit where demons may attach to, easily. I have unresolved childhood trauma that plagued most of my life and my conversion to christianity didn’t make these wounds go away like magic. Not even forgiveness. My passive suicide ideation is still often with me, and I ask God for forgiveness because of this, because I know its wrong. But God is Great and He is my Father. Recently, after a big crisis in my life, I got a breakthrough in taking care of these old wounds that came to the surface to be tended to. God knows what we need for healing. It’s easier with God in our lives, but it takes awareness of where these wounds and destructive life patterns come from, and a great deal of prayer and work to break away from these. Sarah has a great deal of childhood trauma from both her parents. Hopefully she healed 100%, or not (because this is a lifelong recovery), so I just wanted to bring this into attention, its not all about demons on their own and our own sin. When it comes to childhood trauma wounds we are innocent and we must take care of these with the help of our Beloved Father and the Lord Jesus, so that we don’t sin from our wounds and pass on trauma to other people or our own kids.

Interesting interview if a little hard to follow bc of tangents. Still, she's very engaging.
