The Psychedelics Wave is Coming

"Biohacker" Bryan Johnson is live-streaming a "magic mushroom" trip with a cast of influencer all-stars... and I need to be moving faster.

My friend Dino

Profit and Purpose

just sent me a tweet from “biohacker” Bryan Johnson about a live-stream he’ll be doing on Sunday November 30, where he’ll be taking magic mushrooms in front of an international online audience.

To give you some idea of where Johnson is at, his X bio reads, “Conquering death will be humanity’s greatest achievement.” So he’s a fool destined for destruction—but he’s a wealthy, influential, and well-connected fool, nonetheless.

His folly reminded me that I need to be producing far more content in preparation for this impending spiritual disaster for the American evangelical church.

Check out his flyer:

Christians need to understand that the “attack vector” for these drugs will be through the field of psychology—particularly to help people “heal from childhood trauma.”

Psychedelics already have a long history of being marketed to veterans to help them heal from combat trauma. That case has been established at the highest level, particularly through the podcaster Shawn Ryan. He claims to be a professing Christian, and yet publicly promotes his own experience with psychedelics.

Once again, our wounded warriors are being used as guinea pigs for a larger social agenda. Because the logic will go like this: “If it’s good for veterans and their trauma, it must be good for my trauma, too!”

And with hundreds of millions of dollars of funding behind psychedelics research, and the imprimatur of RFK Jr. and the Trump administration….

… there’s no way to stop this wave from crashing over American society from the highest levels.

I have extensive experience with psychedelics—both synthetic and natural—from before I became a Christian. I speak the lingo, know the worldview, and remember literally dozens of experiences with substances of all kinds. I know what they do, what happens when things “go right,” and even what can happen when things go wrong.

Today I take an absolutist stance against them: hard no. Zero exceptions. People suffer all throughout Scripture—both personally and through loved ones—and never once do we see them taking drugs to deal with it. Even Christ rejected gall while on the cross. (Matthew 27:34)

Because suffering is redemptive. But our society has lost sight of that, as we’ve all become more comfortable, sedentary, and soft.

So has the church. Much of the American church doesn’t preach on sin and evil anymore. It avoids discussions of politics and right & wrong. It keeps believers entertained rather than edified. It gives people high-fructose corn syrup instead of meat—or even milk!

Now the country is facing a genuine D-Day Invasion of demons into the Body of Christ, traveling on a sacrament of drugs, as we all worship at an altar of psychology.

Personally, I don’t think the church is ready.

And I also know that I’m not doing enough to help.

Time to change that.
