Practicing Witch And Husband Encounter Christ After Devastating Industrial Accident

Worship leader Sean Feucht shared what he called one of the "wildest" testimonies he has ever heard at a Let Us Worship event in Branson, Missouri, featuring Shauna, a practicing witch, and her husband James, who both came to faith in Christ after a near deadly industrial accident.

Feucht, founder of the pandemic era Let Us Worship movement and a former worship leader at Bethel Church in Redding, California, took to social media Tuesday to share the story of Shauna and James, who took the stage to recount how years immersed in the occult gave way to a profound encounter with Jesus Christ.

"I am here in Branson, Missouri and I got one of the wildest testimonies you guys got to hear," Feucht said in the Tuesday video.

"I'm here with Shauna and James, and Shauna used to be a practicing witch. James had a crazy, crazy accident that happened."

James recounted the horrifying moment that changed everything. "I was crushed by a 2,500 pound tire working down into the docks at Long Beach, California," he said. "I got squished like a bug, crushed my head, ripped my backside off my body."

Ten months after the accident, tragedy struck again. "Ten months later, he had a status epilepticus seizure, which means they didn't stop," Shauna explained. "They had to put him in a medically induced coma."

In that critical moment, as James fought for his life, Shauna, still entrenched in her witchcraft practices, said she received a direct message in which -

"God very clearly spoke to me and said, How many more miracles do I have to show you before you believe?"

When she began driving to the hospital to be with James, she said she encountered a sign. "It wasn't raining that day, but there was a rainbow in the sky," she said, describing the moment when her occult worldview began to crumble. "When I walked into James' ICU room, he was coming out of his coma."

"She was a witch, and God encountered her right after this crazy accident," Feucht said. "God saved his life. He's totally and completely walking, breathing, worshipping with us tonight. Is God not good?"

Feucht is a controversial figure who rose to national prominence for his public worship events in defiance of California's stringent lockdown rules during the coronavirus emergency in 2020. He has also been accused by former ministry associates of moral, ethical, and financial failures with Burn 24/7 and other groups he launched in the early 2000s.

The former workers allege that in 2020, Feucht's ministry experienced a substantial revenue increase of $5.3 million. Two years later, in 2022, the ministry reclassified its IRS status to be recognized as a church, which removed financial reporting requirements and created significant transparency issues, the accusers contend.

The group pointed to the complex organizational structure of Feucht's various ministries, which seem to overlap in their business activities despite being separate legal entities, along with his questionable real estate holdings in multiple states that they say raise questions about the proportion of non profit funds directed towards real estate rather than program activities.

THE CRUSADER'S OPINION

God breaks through darkness.

A witch serving demons encountered the one true God.

Her husband crushed and near death, yet God raised him up.

The occult promises power but delivers only bondage.

Christ offers freedom and resurrection life.

This testimony proves no one is beyond God's reach.

From witchcraft to worship. From death to life.

This is the Gospel's power.
