Deliverance Ministry - Alisa Childers
Many churches today practice deliverance ministry, which seeks to free people from the oppression and possession of demonic spirits and influence. Deliverance can involve practices like prayer, naming and binding demons, breaking generational curses, taking authority over spirits, and identifying sin patterns that (according to deliverance ministers) give demons "legal rights" to oppress or demonize believers. In this new multi-part series, Alisa is joined by Doug Geivett, Richard Howe and others to pose some questions about the general category of "deliverance ministry" and pose some concerns about the lack of biblical basis for these practices.
