Maybe God

Raw Confessions of a Former Christian Exorcist

Maybe God

Show Notes

Bob DeWaay spent five years performing exorcisms, trying to free people, including Christians, from what he believed were demons. But today, he's speaking out—saying deliverance methods are not only harmful, but also a serious distraction from the true message of the gospel. In this powerful interview, Pastor Bob shares why he walked away from deliverance ministry, what he believes the Bible actually teaches about spiritual gifts and exorcism, and how obsession with casting out spirits can pull people away from Christ and the truth of Scripture.

What happens when artificial intelligence begins to sound human, discuss Scripture, offer prayers, and challenge the way we think about consciousness, faith, and the value of human life?

What if spiritual warfare isn't what you think it is? In Part 2 with Dr. Joel Muddamalle, we go deeper into the unseen realm—and into the very real ways spiritual realities intersect with our everyday lives. We talk about demons and angels, worship, evil systems, the role of the church, and why Jesus—not the darkness—is ultimately the center of the story. The conversation takes an unexpected turn when we talk about AI. What happens when technology starts offering us the things we were meant to find in God and in community? And what does it cost us when convenience replaces formation, reflection, and relationship?

What if there's an entire supernatural story behind the Bible that most of us have missed? In Part 1 of our conversation with theologian and "The Unseen Battle" author Dr. Joel Muddamalle, we explore the Bible's strange and often overlooked spiritual world—from Eden and the "sons of God" to the Nephilim, giants, the Tower of Babel, and the three cosmic rebellions of Genesis. Along the way, Joel explains why understanding the ancient world may completely change the way we read these stories—and why he believes the supernatural elements aren't embarrassing leftovers from an ancient worldview, but essential pieces of the Bible's larger story.

Former South African Satanic Church leader Riaan Swiegelaar is back on Maybe God. After his first conversation with Eric Huffman sparked an overwhelming response, Riaan returns to address some of the questions, criticisms, and controversy that followed—including comments about his sexuality and his conversion to Christianity. He also goes deeper into spiritual warfare, deliverance, the occult, and what he believes Christians misunderstand about the spiritual realm. Riaan shares why people wounded by the Church can become vulnerable to the occult, why followers of Jesus don't need to live in fear of darkness, and why no one is beyond the reach of God's grace.
