·48 min·3 clips

Matt Slick describes a figure in a black hat appearing at his mother’s bedside and later at his crib.

1. Matt Slick Live on March 13, 2026 centers on Friday call-ins, a new article titled “Mary cannot hear your prayers a logical case from Scripture,” and repeated requests for questions at 877-207-2276. 2. Matt Slick is the host, and he presents himself as the founder and president of the Christian Apologetics Research Ministry, which explains his focus on Scripture and apologetics. 3. The episode asks whether Marian prayer, Catholic and Orthodox dogmas, demonic manifestations, and spiritual caution can be handled through biblical reasoning. 4. Matt Slick describes cleaning his house after his wife’s death, finding antique crystal, and deciding to sell it rather than keep it. 5. He says he went to an antiques shop, met Erin, learned she has leukemia, prayed for her in the store, and later spoke with her husband. 6. Matt Slick says Erin and her mother attend Calvary Chapel, and he treats the encounter as an opportunity to encourage believers. 7. Cody from Texas asks for the origins and dates of Marian dogmas in Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy. 8. Matt Slick names Theotokos at Ephesus in 431 and perpetual virginity in the 500s, then points to the 1054 AD schism between the Eastern Orthodox and Roman Catholic churches. 9. He also says he would need to separate later Catholic doctrines such as the immaculate conception and the assumption of Mary from Eastern Orthodox teaching. 10. Matt Slick links the question to Rachel Wilson’s book “Occult Feminism, The Secret History of Women’s Liberation” and to modern feminism as a separate historical movement. 11. He argues that marriage counseling often fails when it blames men by default, and he says he now tells couples that both spouses will be judged from Scripture. 12. Matt Slick says he developed a “theology of marriage” based on the Trinity and male-female distinctions, and he claims thirty-six couples he counseled were saved from divorce. 13. Peter from Texas asks about demonic manifestations and whether demons can attach to objects. 14. Matt Slick recounts his mother repeatedly seeing a man in a black hat, white rolled-up sleeves, and black slacks appear by her bed and later by his crib. 15. He says he experienced occult practices, a blue orb forming into a man and then a yellow cross, and physical sensations of pressure during a Buddhist convention chanting “Nomiho Renge Kyo.” 16. Matt Slick says his daughters have seen shadows and moving objects in the house, which led him to perform what he calls a cleansing. 17. He says fear of demonic activity is legitimate as caution, but he insists believers should pray, seek God’s protection, and avoid talking to demons or the devil. 18. Matt Slick’s tone mixes pastoral advice, personal testimony, and argumentative theology, and the format shifts quickly between monologue and caller interaction. 19. Listeners who debate Marian doctrine, marriage theology, or spiritual warfare will get the most from this episode. 20. Listeners who want a tightly edited, issue-specific program may skip the long detours and stories.
