Note: This episode is not intended for younger audiences

What happens when deeply traumatic experiences intersect with claims of supernatural activity—and where should Christians draw the line between discernment, trauma, and spiritual warfare?

In this episode of Nessie & Nephilim, Tim sits down with Kelly Hawley, founder and executive director of Warrior Bride Ministries, for one of our most intense conversations yet.

Kelly has spent more than 19 years working with survivors of complex trauma, childhood abuse, trafficking, and what she describes as ritual abuse, mind control, and spiritual oppression.

She shares what she says she has encountered through years of ministry—and why she believes the Church needs to become better equipped to help people dealing with trauma, fragmentation, deliverance, and spiritual warfare.
