Summary

Join us for a deep dive into the world of Tony Robbins—the world-renowned self-help guru whose influence reaches millions. We’re asking the hard questions: 👉 Are there spiritually dangerous aspects to Tony Robbins’ teachings? 👉 What exactly is NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), and how should Christians think about it? 👉 How does all of this align—or conflict—with a biblical worldview? We’re interviewing the Kraken—Marcia Montenegro, a former astrologer and New Ager turned Christian —who brings clarity, insight, and firsthand experience to the infamous self-help movement. You don’t want to miss this one. Partner With Us: HERE Marcia's Website: HERE NLP Article: HERE Marcia's Article on Tony: HERE
