Brannon interviews Elizabeth Bryant, author of Snatched from the Jaws of the Lion: "Snatched From the Jaws of the Lion" chronicles the separate spiritual journeys of the author, a first generation Christian, and her mother, a second generation Medium (Channeler or Spiritist). It covers the different paths they chose, the struggles they had with one another, and how the mother miraculously accepted Christ as her Savior in the last year of her life. The story demonstrates God’s faithfulness to answer prayer and to liberate from the entangling past. Although primarily about the journey of these two women, this book also carefully examines the Christian validity of works such as "The Course in Miracles," "God Calling," and Sarah Young’s "Jesus Calling." These three books use the same New Age method of channeling (automatic writing) to communicate so-called Christian thoughts from a spirit guide they call 'Jesus.' After a radical conversion to Christianity, the author ran wholeheartedly away from the New Age channeling practices of her mother, only to discover that she slammed into the very same practices in Christian circles, channeling with a 'Christian' covering and a mixture of Scripture. She has written this book to tell her story of how she too was deceived into believing that she could actually write messages from God. She shares how she longed for intimacy with the Lord and began to write these messages in the same way "God Calling" described, and "Jesus Calling" and its sequels now emulate. The author questioned why other Christians did not seek God in this same way, and gradually she realized that the practice was not from God. She broke free of this addictive snare, and she now offers help and answers to others who are struggling to determine if this practice is in accordance with Scripture.
