Your body isn’t God: Jen Hatmaker’s New Age lies exposed



Jen Hatmaker’s new book, “Awake,” dives into the tragic breakdown of her marriage — but what BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey finds even more tragic is that it covers the disintegration of her Christianity.

“She has now decided to worship the god of self rather than the God of Scripture. And that is not freedom. That’s not fulfillment. That’s not satisfaction. That will lead to a dead end, but she has exchanged Christianity for these New Age beliefs that, of course, Oprah herself has represented for a very long time,” Stuckey says on “Relatable.”

Hatmaker asserted in her book that her body holds infinite wisdom, explaining that women especially “contain a deep wisdom that not only leads us well but could heal the earth.”

“When my internalized misogyny asserts its conditioned response to defend abusive systems, my body overrides it immediately. She knows. She tells me the truth. She always tells me the truth,” Hatmaker said.


Stuckey points out the absurdity of the idea that a woman’s body is always telling the truth.

“Sometimes my body, my hormones, my hunger, my lack of sleep, the million things that go on in the world that affect our bodies tell us things that are not true. ... They give us cues that don’t actually point us in the right direction,” Stuckey says.

“Our body is not a source of truth. Our bodies are made in the image of God, but they are not like God. Now, gosh, what did the serpent say to Eve in the Garden of Eden? ‘You can be like God. ... You will not surely die if you take a bite of the fruit of this tree which the God who created you and loves you strictly forbade you from eating,’” she continues.

“Jen Hatmaker has taken a bite of the apple, and she believes that her body is like God, has this kind of gnostic, transcendent knowledge,” she adds.

Hatmaker goes on to say, “Our life’s work is to reject those capitalistic, patriarchal narrative systems that have conspired to keep us at war with our bodies.”

“If we hate how we look, these systems own us. If we hate what we want, they dominate us. If we hate what we crave, they control us. They get to master us with impunity when we despise ourselves; we do their dirty work and, in so doing, become their most powerful co-conspirators,” she writes.

While Stuckey notes that Hatmaker “sounds really eloquent” and “catchy” because the “pacing is right and the cadence is right,” but it doesn’t actually mean anything.

“That’s actually the hallmark of really good propaganda, of effective propaganda,” Stuckey says, noting that Hatmaker has also been 100% supportive of transgenderism, even in children.

“She’s been outspoken about this: ‘Protect trans kids.’ People who are mutilating their bodies through hormone blockers, puberty blockers, and cross-sex hormones and double mastectomies — that is literally bloody war with your body,” Stuckey says.

“So, she doesn’t even agree with what she’s saying,” she adds.

The ‘demonically influenced’ seek out those suffering. Here’s how to stop them.



We’ve been told our whole lives to “trust the experts,” but what happens when those experts — even the religious ones — lead us astray?

In a recent segment of "Ask Deace Anything” on the “Steve Deace Show,” one man came to BlazeTV host Steve Deace with this question after his girlfriend, who has PTSD and bipolar disorder, was hospitalized during a bad episode.

While his girlfriend was in the hospital’s care, the hospital chaplain told her she was an “empath” and had “psychic abilities,” before going on to baptize her.

She not only feels “spiritually empowered” and has “doubled down on New Age mysticism,” but refuses to listen to criticism since it came from a chaplain — someone she sees as a religious authority.


“That’s demonic,” Deace responds. “The most important thing that you could do, if you’re not doing it already, is to get yourself, and her with you if you can, into a faithfully witnessing, Bible-believing and -preaching church.”

“That is the most important thing that you could do,” he continues.

“This heretic gave her an idol, and because that idol gave her meaning in her suffering that, whatever her church experience up until this point, sadly has not offered for her.”

“And we greatly need and desire to have meaning in our suffering, purpose in it. And unfortunately, much of the modern Christian church will teach you suffering is to be avoided, frankly, or worse, will play into victimology,” he adds.

This, Deace explains, turns the one suffering into “a mark for the one who comes along and finds purpose and meaning for her in her suffering.”

“So you need to get the two of you, but at least you, into a church that teaches the full counsel of God. Because ultimately,” Deace continues, “your relationship will not survive a question of authority between you and this occultic guru, demonically influenced individual.”

“You’re going to lose, because this individual gave her something you can’t ever give her: purpose in her suffering,” he adds.

Crunchy to cultish: The deconstruction of 'Rose Uncharted'



Questioning authority has proven to be generally good in the age of modern politics and health care — but sometimes those who question take it a bridge too far.

One of them, a crunchy mom influencer known as “Rose Uncharted” on Instagram, recently deconstructed from Christianity and began sharing New Age ideas and beliefs to her 165,000 followers on the social media platform.

“This is not an attack on this individual person. I’m not trying to even focus on this one individual, but the content that she has publicly produced and published on her Instagram is a really good example of false teaching that Christians need to be really aware of, especially the demographic in my audience,” Allie Beth Stuckey of “Relatable” explains.


“The Christian on the crunchy side mom that tends to question authority and question the government and push back against the arbitrary rules — all of those things are great,” she continues, noting that this can lead to being “attracted to certain forms of false teaching” and “perversions of Christianity.”

While these women believe it to be “thinking outside of the box,” Stuckey says that it’s “really just the work of the devil” and an “anti-Christ philosophy.”

“Rose Uncharted” became extremely popular during COVID for pushing back against many of the regulations that didn’t make sense and were clearly restricting our freedoms — like mask and vaccine mandates.

She’s also very vocal about taking a holistic, natural approach to medicine and birth, and she asks a lot of questions about typical Western medicine. Now, she’s begun to become vocal about deconstructing.

“Now, if you don’t know what deconstruction is, I would say it’s a very polite euphemism to describe the process that a Christian goes through when they no longer believe what the Bible teaches about a lot of things in general,” Stuckey says.

In her initial announcement that she was deconstructing, "Rose Uncharted" wrote, “Stepping out of religion feels like stepping out of a room that was never built for me in the first place. It was never about truth — it was about pledging allegiance to the Bible, not as something to seek and wrestle with, but as something already decided for you, imposed upon you, interpreted for you by men through the ages with a variety of intentions, good and bad.”

“I’ve come to believe Christianity is a corrupt and flawed man-made system designed to keep us afraid of ourselves, afraid of our own instincts, afraid of wanting more, afraid of our very own hearts,” she continued. “Now, the unknown is no longer a threat to me — it’s an invitation.”

“She’s saying that outside of religion she has been able to really find God, find God for herself,” Stuckey explains, noting that this February, the influencer made a Western versus Eastern comparison.

“I see this so much in progressive circles. The demonization of the Western lens and the Western mentality, as if Western civilization, because of Christianity, isn’t responsible for the concept of human rights,” she continues, adding, “I loathe that.”
