How Distracted Are You? Is This The Biggest Problem Today?
What if the greatest threat to your faith isn’t fear—but distraction? Candace, JP, and Lev unpack how the enemy uses busyness, noise, and even our own thoughts to keep us from intimacy with God.
JP shares the emotional story of a dying man whose final words—"Don’t wait like I did"—remind us how easily we can miss what matters most. From golden calves to glowing screens, the team exposes how distraction can become modern-day idolatry and explains why the mind is the primary battleground in spiritual warfare. Candace also opens up about the mental exhaustion of spinning too many plates and how she’s fighting to reclaim peace, focus, and rest.
You’ll walk away with practical strategies to identify your biggest distractions and learn how to redirect your attention back to Jesus. Because if the enemy can’t destroy you—he’ll try to distract you.

Can Demons Hear Your Prayers? The Truth About a Real Question - Jonathan Pokluda
What if the devil knew your weaknesses better than you did? In this episode, JP explains how the enemy studies our habits, patterns, and even family history—like a coach analyzing game film—to find ways to destroy us. But the good news? God equips us with everything we need to stand strong.
Candace, Lev, and JP open up about spiritual warfare in everyday life—from the arguments in a young marriage to the pressure of working in the public eye. They talk about how demons can't read our minds but can observe our words, habits, and bloodline to wage a targeted attack. JP explains what Scripture means when it talks about generational strongholds and how geography, culture, and even well-meaning Christians can unknowingly become instruments of discouragement.
They also dive into what it means to put on the armor of God, how spiritual warfare isn't always loud or cinematic, and why prayer is the key to staying grounded. You’ll also hear a powerful listener question from a woman facing chronic illness while raising a young family—and the hope that comes from remembering this truth: you're not home yet, but God is with you every step of the way.

Demons at the Country Club- Jonathan Pokluda
What happens when a casual conversation at a Utah country club turns into a full-on demonic encounter? In this stunning episode, JP shares a first-person story of deliverance that confirmed his conviction that spiritual warfare is real. But it’s not just something that happens somewhere else, to other people, in foreign countries —it can happen in a golf clubhouse too.
Candace, Lev, and JP break down what authors in the Bible write about angels, demons, and strongholds. They also discuss the idea of sin opening people to demonic oppression, the Biblical model for spiritual authority, and how to discern God’s voice from the enemy’s lies. This one will make you laugh, think, and maybe think about your local golf course a little differently!

Is This Spiritual Warfare… or Just a Dead Battery?
Episode Summary: Do demons really mess with car batteries… or is that just coincidence?
In the premiere episode of Season 10 of The Candace Cameron Bure Podcast, Candace is joined by Pastor Jonathan “JP” Pokluda and her son, Lev Bure, to kick off a series of bold conversations about spiritual warfare—what it is, why most Christians avoid talking about it, and how it’s affecting our lives more than we realize.
JP shares his own journey from skepticism to deep Biblical study, breaking down what’s written in scripture about Satan, demons, and the unseen realm. Lev reflects on his upbringing and real-life moments that made him question whether something more was happening behind the scenes. Together, the trio explores how our experiences, media, and theology often distort the truth—and how Jesus offers clarity, peace, and protection in the middle of the battle.
From hilarious childhood snake stories to sobering truths about temptation and fear, this episode invites you to open your eyes to the invisible war around us—and lean on the God who wins.
It’s not about living in fear. It’s about living in awareness.

Listener Question: “I'd like to better understand evil and why it's allowed to exist among us.” JP gives a powerful response about why evil is not a thing—but rather the absence of God’s goodness.
