My daughter and son in law both attend and work for James River. Glad that pastor lindell preached on this subject. http://www.jamesriver.tv
I was surprised and thankful today to see that a pastor in Missouri is warning his congregation of the demonic spirits of yoga. He is a brave man. I pray that the people of his congregation have ears to hear. — https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2018/11/12/james-river-pastor-yoga-demonic-roots/1975401002/
