2 Timothy 3:6-7-"For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth."2 Timothy 3:13-"But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived."
Galatians 1:6-8-"I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed."
Acts 20:28-30-"Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them."
2 Tim 4:3-4-"For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables."

So says Tammy Anderson Ward, President of Hope Haven Events, who presents the "Christ-Centered Energy Healing Conferences." If Christ-centered energy healing sounds like an oxymoron, that's because it is. And all one needs to do is cruise around on the website to see that the nature of these conferences is blatantly New Age. But we'll get to that in a little bit. The group is reaching out to a broad audience and is being billed as "the world's largest Christ-centered energy healing conference;" but what caught the attention of Lighthouse Trails and author Ray Yungen more than anything is that they are reaching out to homeschool kids and parents, a traditionally conservative segment of the population. It's understandable that Tammy Anderson Ward is trying to reach homeschool families, she is a homeschool mom who has eight children, and we don't doubt that she loves her children very much and seems to be a person of good will. But when you hear what these events are promoting, we think you will agree that this should NOT be called "Christ Centered." In the video below, Tammy Anderson Ward explains how her family got involved with energy healing. (If you cannot view this video below, click here.)
Evangelical Christianity has always presented healing in a religious sense (i.e., we pray to God and ask Him to heal with His power, not a power within ourselves that we learn to manipulate and utilize). New Age healing is always presented in a therapeutic context. In other words, it's something you tap into or learn to do (which explains the need for conferences - you have to go there and learn to do it). Some may be thinking right now that perhaps Tammy Anderson Ward is merely calling her techniques energy healing but does not bring chakras into the picture. A study of speakers she invites to her conferences throws that assumption out the window. On the Christ Centered Energy Healing store site, there is a section selling products from past conferences. Here are some of the titles: Chakras and the Armor of God, Chakras: Know Your Energy Centers, The Spirit of the Chakras, Are Chi and Chakras for Christians? (no doubt, this speaker says yes), and Energy Healing: Dance to Heal Your Chakras. If you feel like you have just been read a list of New Age titles, we hope this news article we are writing will deeply concern you.
From Christ Centered Energy Healing website; used in accordance with the US Fair Use Act for the purpose of critique and review[/caption] This past March, Hope Haven held a "Christ Centered Energy Healing" conference in Mesa, Arizona. Some of the seminars that were offered were: Creating Health: The New Era, Healing Games to Play With Your Children, Crystal Connections: Another of Heaven's Tools, Group Energy Healing, The Peace & Power of BE-ing Present, and Sailing into the 5th Dimension, Gracefully. By the way, the 5th dimension is referring to the altered state of consciousness reached during deep meditation. Sheena Davis, one of the presenters at March's conference, taught a workshop called Healing Methods for everyone. The website describes the class:

There are many other manipulative techniques used by false teachers in the Christian Church, here are a few of them:
1- Lying by omission is when you leave out some of the truth to present your truth, this is also known as propaganda.
2- Laying a guilt trip is a favorite tactic used by most professional, yet false teachers in the Christian Church today. The manipulator suggests to the audience, that already is in a state of agreeableness (who typically want to please and be accepted) that they are selfish, do not care, or are spoiled. The result is usually one where the person feels bad or unworthy, leading to self doubt. Ultimately the victim will wind up in a position of submission to the teacher, thus allowing this control to continue.
3- Note that the submission is now towards a man (usually employing these tactics for power and financial control) who does not submit to others.
4- Subtle but effective shaming or put-downs are utilized to intensify the fear of ones actions as not being acceptable; the self doubt continues or grows to the point where there is now a dependency on the teacher. This technique is widely used especially when the leader is questioned on his authority or doctrines, and when money is required. At this point the subject can be led to accept control by other means.
5- Seduction is a favorite tool of the false teachers in the Christian Church, who are professional manipulators. They use their voice, stance, confidence and image to grab the attention of a crowd and keep it. With almost a magical charm they can allure or captivate the audience with a hypnotic like manipulation of the truth. This tool can be very profitable in dealing with inter personal relationships; the seducer becomes like a drug dealer. He has what you think you need. After the magic of charm has taken hold of an individual or group, flattery can be put into practice to lower their defenses. This will usually allow the manipulator to gain trust and possibly even loyalty, which is the goal.
6- The victim mentality method is used for pity, sympathy or concern about himself personally or his organization. False teachers in the Christian Church make claims that the ministry is in trouble, and without immediate financial contributions many will suffer. People do not like to see or hear of sufferings, and if they are made to feel responsible, it is usually fairly easy to get them to cooperate.
7- The ultimate and end game of this manipulation, is one in which the false teachers in the Christian Church are seen as having the role of being God’s ordained teachers, or prophets. Once they have obtained this cult like status, people no longer even think for themselves. As well they sometimes violently protect the belief system and the leader(s) that they unwittingly worship.
