Spiritual Disciplines Part 3: Spiritual Warfare with Joshua Spatha & TS Wright

In this powerful continuation of the Spiritual Disciplines series, T.S. Wright and Joshua Spatha dive deep into the biblical reality of spiritual warfare and why every believer must understand how to engage in it through humility, discernment, prayer, Scripture, and worship.

Joshua explains the importance of recognizing both physical and spiritual realities while avoiding the extremes of either dismissing spiritual warfare entirely or attributing everything to demonic activity. Together, they discuss biblical authority, discernment of spirits, regional strongholds, prophetic acts, and practical ways Christians can remain spiritually vigilant in everyday life.

This episode emphasizes that spiritual warfare is not about theatrics or emotional displays—it is about standing in the authority of Christ while remaining fully dependent on God’s power and guidance.

In This Episode

  • Why spiritual warfare is part of Christian discipline
  • The Western worldview vs. biblical spiritual awareness
  • Discernment: identifying spiritual vs. fleshly issues

  • The danger of spiritual pride and theatrics
  • Biblical perspectives on demonic oppression and attachment
  • Prayer, Scripture, and worship as spiritual weapons
  • Regional strongholds and spiritual atmospheres

Key Takeaways

  • Discernment is essential in identifying spiritual battles.
  • Worship, prayer, and Scripture are foundational spiritual weapons.
