New Age or Christianity?

Pastors Chad Moore and Robert Watson from Sun Valley Community Church in Arizona discuss New Age beliefs in this podcast linked below. They endeavor to help Christians discern the pitfalls of the New Age movement by covering what true Christianity is and how it differs from New Age.

Pastor Chad mentions that when he interacts with some Christians, he notices that they take New Age ideas and ‘throw a little Jesus on top.’ He said, “New Age is very common, it’s everywhere, and it’s a big deal in our society.” (1:20 minutes)

A couple of other quotes from Pastor Chad:

“New Age is– ‘I’m gonna get the universe to do what I want it to do.’ New Age at its core is a desire to be God.” (1:58 minutes)

“Biblical Christianity is–‘my life is not my own, it belongs to Jesus.’ And there is a beautiful, freeing, soul-satisfying thing that happens with that.” (24:12)
