Why this conversation, why now

The one difference they can point to

Leah's timeline, August 2023 to July 2024

White paper on the floor in Porto

Malaine at the Supernatural Jesus Conference

The band aid and how fast healing comes

The legalistic season and why it mattered

Visioning, and what Jesus said about it

Which teachers to watch and when

The 70/30 rule

Yoga, and why it cannot be made holy

Astrology and the times and seasons

Familiar spirits and the accuracy trap

The New Age works. It runs on principles God wrote, used without Him.

Leah and Malaine had the crystals, the Buddhas, the tarot decks, and two businesses built on top of new age and occult practices, with clients still paying and a year of commitments to wind down. Leah cried out to God from the floor of an apartment in Porto in August 2023, surrounded by sheets of white paper with every part of her life written on them, and heard two instructions back. Malaine spent the same year being pursued, cleared every crystal and Buddha out of the house, and held onto the Human Design business until January 2024. Both of them put everything down at once, and they think that is why the restoration came fast.

In this episode they work through the questions filling their inboxes. Whether a Christian can do yoga, and why the origin of the poses settles it. Astrology as divination, the magi who followed a star, and why Leah put the whole subject down for years before Jesus reopened it. Muscle testing, Reiki, and the single question of intent that decides what is redeemable. Which online teachers to watch in the first year, the 70/30 rule they run on all of them, Nebuchadnezzar's restoration in Daniel 4, and why an accurate reading from a familiar spirit proves nothing at all.

"Just because something is accurate does not mean it is rooted in the kingdom of heaven."

-Malaine Lea Butler

Key Takeaways
Why two former practitioners who built businesses on tarot, astrology and Human Design put all of it down in the same year, and what they say it cost them.
What happened on the floor of an apartment in Porto in August 2023, and the two instructions Leah heard back from God.
Why Malaine threw out every crystal and Buddha in the house and kept the Human Design business, and what finally moved it.
What ripping a band aid off fast has to do with how quickly God restores a life.
Why yoga cannot be made holy no matter what word gets put in front of it, and the bloodline reason it lands harder on some people.
How the magi found Jesus, and why Leah put astrology down for years before Jesus reopened the subject.
What decides whether muscle testing or Reiki is redeemable, and the question Jesus asked Malaine on a school run.
The 70/30 rule Leah and Malaine run on every teacher they follow, and why it started at 80/20.
How a familiar spirit on your family line produces an accurate reading, and why accuracy is the bait.

 

Featured Scripture

Proverbs 25:2

"It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter."

Application: This is the verse Leah and Malaine come back to constantly, and it is the whole method of this episode. God conceals things on purpose, and the concealing is an invitation with your name on it. The honour sits in the searching, which makes the questions people are afraid to ask about yoga or astrology or muscle testing the assignment itself. It also sets the pace. A king searches a matter out slowly, with counsel, in the word, over as long as it takes. Put the thing down while you search, and let Him keep it hidden for as long as He wants to.

The Bible is stranger, darker, and more glorious than you were taught. Let's talk about it.

Faith on the Fringe Podcast is where Leah Steele Barnett and Malaine Lea Butler explore the supernatural biblical worldview that most modern churches have quietly shelved. Spirit-Filled. Bible-Obsessed. Slightly Unhinged.

The Divine Council. Fallen Watchers. The Nephilim. Pre-flood history. Spiritual warfare with real teeth. We bring the scholarship, the Spirit, and zero religious performance.

We are not doom-scrolling through Revelation or building bunkers. This is a Kingdom-forward conversation rooted in the belief that God's story is bigger, wilder, and more victorious than mainstream theology has made room for.

For the believers who never stopped asking questions. For the Christ-followers who want the whole Bible, not just the comfortable parts.



MEET THE HOSTS OF FAITH ON THE FRINGE

LEAH STEELE BARNETT

Faith-led cultural commentator, AI educator, and host of The Culture Cast operating at the intersection of technology, culture, and Kingdom stewardship. She examines cultural deception, belief systems, and power structures through a biblical lens. She is pattern-oriented, allergic to hype, and built for the kind of theology that doesn't flinch. On The Fringe, she brings the research, the receipts, and a refusal to let comfortable doctrine go unchallenged.

MALAINE LEA BUTLER

Deliverance-driven disciple of Jesus Christ who walked out of the New Age and into radical transformation through the power of the Gospel. Host of Kingdom Talk and founder of Eden House, she creates space for raw, deep, and confrontational conversations that call hearts into full surrender and freedom in Christ. On The Fringe, she brings fire, spiritual authority, and zero tolerance for religious performance.
