Weaponized Religion: Pentecostalism To NAR traces how spiritual language can be turned into a tool of power. From early Pentecostal currents to Latter Rain and modern NAR networks, John Collins follows the ideas, leaders, and systems that reshape faith into influence campaigns, loyalty machines, and political projects. Each episode connects doctrine to outcomes: prophecy culture, spiritual warfare frameworks, dominion claims, "apostolic" authority, prosperity messaging, and the patterns of control that follow. Expect historical context, receipts, and plain-language analysis aimed at helping listeners recognize manipulation, protect their communities, and separate genuine belief from manufactured pressure.
