#14 - Christian Zionism, Church Abuse & the War for Your Soul with Kevin Cease

What happens when a man is delivered from demonic torment, gives his life to Jesus Christ… and ends up in a church that looks more like a military cult than the Bride of Christ?

In this explosive conversation, Leah is joined by Kevin Cease - a former Satanist, New Ager, and evangelical Protestant who shares his unfiltered journey into supernatural deliverance, spiritual abuse, and his radical conviction to leave Zionist, dispensationalist Christianity behind for the Catholic Church.

From demonic encounters during Buddhist retreats and ayahuasca ceremonies to guns, nationalism, and “bomb Iran” sermons from the pulpit - this episode exposes what happens when the Church is hijacked by political agendas and counterfeit theology.

Kevin doesn’t hold back. And neither do we.

“I didn’t want to become Catholic. I was crying - but everything pointed there. And when I prayed, ‘God, I just want the truth,’ He answered. It wrecked me and rebuilt me.” - Kevin Cease

🔍 Key Takeaways

• Christian Zionism is a political deception weaponizing Scripture to drive endless war and blind allegiance to a secular state.

• Spiritual abuse is alive in the modern church - from gaslighting pastors to pulpits preaching politics over the Gospel.

• New Age spirituality is a gateway for demons, and Kevin’s story proves only Jesus can shut the doors opened by occult practice.

• Sola Scriptura is a house of cards - Kevin's deep dive into church history led him to question everything he’d been taught in evangelicalism.

• Theology has consequences - including how we vote, how we war, and who we follow. What you believe shapes how you live and what you’ll fall for.
