In this episode, we sit down over a delicious Nigerian meal of pounded yam (Iyán) with ila Alasepo to share our Pentecostal church experiences, from funny church moments to truly scary church experiences that left a lasting impact. We dive into spiritual warfare testimonies, including intense casting out demons stories, and discuss how these moments shaped our faith. We also explore the Biblical view on praying against enemies, looking at Imprecatory Psalms in modern Christianity—do Old Testament calls for justice still apply today, and how do they align with Jesus' command to love our enemies? Join us as we unpack Pentecostal perspectives on spiritual manifestations, reflecting on the powerful, awe-inspiring, and sometimes shocking realities of faith.
