This is an updated post on some New Age doctors that CANA has warned about in the past (see the many resources listed at the end). What I and others have observed over the years is that health care has become infected with New Age and occult practices that initially were seen as alien but have now mainstreamed. Some practices are outright energy healing, like Reiki, while others are based on belief in these energies but appear more conventional. Shamanism has come to the health field, both in the culture and in the church, and the doctors examined here are part of that influence.
The Doctors
One of these doctors is Dr. Mehmet Oz who admits he is a follower of Emmanuel Swedenborg, grandfather of the New Thought movement, which was foundational to the New Age as well as propping up much of the pseudo-scientific healing practices today.
Another doctor is Dr. Daniel Amen who promotes and teaches an esoteric Hindu mediation technique and what is known in Hinduism as tantric sex.
A third doctor is Mark Hyman who works with Deepak Chopra and embraced a form of non-medicine called Functional Medicine based on spiritual beliefs and pseudo-science.
There is also Dr. Mercola, promoter of New Age practices and his own supplements, follower of conspiracy theories, and slavish fan of a spirit that comes via a psychic-channeler.
The last one is Dr. Andrew Weil, a New Age enthusiast of psychotropic plants.
These doctors are New Agers or embrace and promote New Age concepts. There are many more, not to mention the non-medical practitioners such as chiropractors, the naturopaths, and “natural healers” who are rooted in New Age thinking. Continue reading
“Media coverage of Trump’s National Guard call-out has all but ignored these incidents; they have become an unremarkable part of America’s urban fabric that now includes flash mobs, vicious and gratuitous pedestrian assaults, and mass looting.” 
“Newsom is hoping other Democrat-run states will follow. But many, like Illinois, have already gerrymandered their congressional maps to hurt Republicans, and so there are not many Republican seats left to seize.”
(Stephen Kruiser) Another day, another veritable trainload of projection from the Democrats. The political party whose theme movie is “The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind” continues to infuriate and amaze with its inability to have any historical frame of reference whatsoever. It’s an ignorance that is fueled by a chronic lack of self-awareness and an institutional tendency towards pathological lying. That toxic combination makes them “bagful of cats” crazy.
“Why are they doing this? Why take the most masculine sport in America and put it in heels and lip gloss? The answer is as gross as it is simple. Because corporate elites are so far removed from reality, they’re practically orbiting another planet. They’ve been catechized into the cult of social idealism—a new religion where the high priests preach that real masculinity is a disease and the cure is the modern sexual revolution.”
33 These things have I spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace: in the world ye shall have affliction, but be of good comfort: I have overcome the world. John 16:33 (1599 Geneva Bible) 
“After he left office, Obama continued to lie on multiple occasions that the Russians had hacked the 2016 election and influenced the outcome. Hillary Clinton did the same. Both know their claims are lies. Soon, they will know they did it in furtherance of a conspiracy when they get subpoenaed to speak to a grand jury in Florida, God willing.” 
“For some reason Protestants in recent decades have ceded much of the public space to Catholics. Right-wing Catholic political commentators like Jack Posobiec, Matt Walsh, and Michael Knowles have no trouble openly proselytizing for their denomination. Meanwhile, their Protestant peers are more reticent to talk about their Protestant faith in public…”
…people are really outraged about food stamps because they’ve been selling them, and that’s how they “normally buy weed, wigs, bundles (of drugs), get your nails done”…“And don’t say I’m lying because when y’all were receiving food stamps, you were selling the food stamps. You weren’t worried about feeding your children”

“Selecting songs for corporate worship is a profound privilege that deepens the connection between believers, both themselves and their Savior. This task requires careful adherence to biblical principles guiding music’s purpose and boundaries, while considering the congregation’s specific context and traditions…”
“FBI Director Kash Patel releases bombshell documents to Congress showing how agents traced classified leaks to sources but DOJ didn’t act.”
(John MacArthur) If we want to understand creation, if we want to understand origins, if we want to understand how the universe came into existence and everything that is in it, we have to look at theology, not science. And the source of theology is the Word of God in which God speaks. The Bible is not theory, the Bible is fact. The Bible is reality. The Bible is truth no matter what subject it addresses, but particularly with regard to origins since no one was here when God created, we have only His eyewitness account.
“Reformed Theological Seminary brought in John Perkins to talk about “redistribution and reconciliation.” Tim Keller, planting Redeemer in New York City, championed “mercy and justice”—not the biblical kind, but the Marxist, social kind—as central to the gospel mission…The language shifted, and with it, the theology bent like a reed in the wind.”
(Lifezette) Vice President J.D. Vance is 
“Travel agents in San Francisco are suggesting Mr. Trump go to hell, but that’s not nice. No Napa, either. Newsom hangs there.”
“The Reformers defined three marks of a true biblical church: Preaching the Word…Rightly administering the sacraments… Faithfully exercising church discipline”
“This news comes after it was revealed in May of 2025 that James was under FBI investigation for potential alleged mortgage fraud. She now faces multiple criminal investigations from federal law enforcement.”
“While they legislate sin and litigate righteousness, God has already made His move. He has already crowned His Son. Christ is King. Not will be. Is. And this world and its wickedness is already on borrowed time.”
(John Herring – American Reformer) Chip and Joanna Gaines made their Christian faith central to their public personas. Integrating faith and work is a move of integrity, reflecting the Reformation-era insight that all work is done to the glory of God. And yet what builds an audience is also what it takes to keep that same audience. Bud Light was built on an image of working-class masculinity; Target was supposed to be the family-friendly upscale version of Wal-Mart. When both engaged in overt LGBTQ+ marketing, their bases abandoned them. Both have since recovered their market share by going back to their original positions.
