On this episode, I sit down with Dakota to unravel a chilling, drug-induced experience that went far beyond hallucination and into the realm of the supernatural. What began as an experimental night spiraled into a dark initiation ritual, complete with chanting, an unexplainable shift into another realm, and an encounter with a sinister goat-headed figure. As we dig into the events of that night, we uncover layers of spiritual manipulation, the lasting impact on Dakota and his brother, and how faith in Jesus Christ became the lifeline that pulled Dakota out of the darkness. This conversation is raw, gripping, and a sobering reminder of the unseen battle for our souls.
Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer. Your prayers make a difference!
