The False Ministry of Christalignment
READING TIME: 5 MINUTES
The following is some information on a group from Australia, falsely labeled as a Christian ministry, called Christalignment. At the bottom of these notes are some Facebook posts of a recent event in which they were involved.
This is from their facebook page and is entitled “Our Story”: Christalignment is a team of highly trained spiritual consultants. We are seers and healers, able to hear from the higher third heaven realm. We use only Christ Spirit as our guide and reference point and all readers can access him.
What we offer: accurate Destiny Readings, entity Cleansing, Physical Healing using Divine Energy, Dream Interpretation (using the Hebraic method) Spiritual Alignment, Recovery from trauma & Relationship healing. In our Destiny Readings, all life questions are answered. We make sure that we have heard an answer to your need. (https://www.facebook.com/Christalignment/posts/1712741995431800?hc_location=ufi) (Well, we recognize the new age sound of much of this quite easily).
Here is a video of Jen Hodges, the founder, describing Christalignment: (https://videos.files.wordpress.com/AHTtyT6i/christalignment-not-about-salvation_dvd.mp4)
(Just to note there is a sign that says, “Destiny Reading $10.”And then concerning the video, she says, “we’re able to give people massive God encounters.” That this team of people is trained in prophetic evangelism. However, 1 Cor. 12 is about spiritual gifts and these gifts are given, not purchased, not obtained by reading books, or listening to a DVD set some huckster is trying to sell on Sid Roth’s “It’s Supernatural” program, for example. Verse 10 of 1 Cor. 12 specifically mentions the gift of prophecy so one has to receive this gift from God, not attend some training seminar. Then she says they had two salvations the last day they were there, but the aim isn’t actually salvation, but the aim is to get them into a brand new relationship with God, to give them their very first glimpse of God, which is so important before they are able to come to Jesus. But, she has this turned around so we know they are having false encounters. God’s Word clearly says Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life and no man comes to the Father, but by Him. Then, she says they are seeing many Hindus and many Muslims and they’re able to spend a long time with them and to pray with them, but she doesn’t say they are sharing the gospel of salvation with them. And, then she says they have developed a system where they are able to release encounter onto people using a word of knowledge which just sounds scary).
Once some discernment ministries got wind of the practices of Christalignment, Jen Hodges went into defense mode. I will include the link to a short message she posted on Facebook where she mentions several times that they don’t use tarot cards. She says they use a prophetic set of cards where the artist has written his own prophetic meaning of a painting on the back of cards which she says is not different than going to church and seeing a prophetic painting and artist telling you what it means. (And, in case someone has never heard of this, Bethel Redding church and others similar to them, actually allow “prophetic artists” to paint pictures during the services). Jen Hodges says when they go to places where others are using tarot cards they want to be there as a light. And, many have been saved through the cards alone. The cards start a discussion and result in the Spirit of Truth being able to speak to them. (https://www.facebook.com/jenny.hodge.92/posts/1875041285857429) (However, at the Christalignment website the word tarot did originally appear in at least two places: One place it said: We “believe they are more predictive and higher than most tarot, and can address a current life question that you may have.” Another one said: “Psalm readings are similar to tarot in that cards are counted out according to your birth date date & year.” The word tarot has now been replaced by the phrase, “other card readings.” Here is a link that shows the previous wording).

Jen Hodges’ son, Ben Fitzgerald, head of Awakening Europe and Awakening Australia, made the following Facebook video in support of his mom and her work: (https://www.facebook.com/benfitzgeraldandJesus/videos/1929031337111589/)
Here is some of what he said: “I just need to speak into it, because I’ve had enough of it. And seeing the stuff I’m seeing in the last two weeks, it’s just enough is enough. And so, if you’re a believer and you’re watching this, even if you’re a non-Christian and you’re watching this, you could learn from what I’m about to say. Because we need to be, the Bible really commands us to walk like Jesus, which means we need to walk in love. And when we don’t have love, we have nothing. And so this week, the last two weeks actually, my whole family has been under attack, severely.”
“So for those who may not know, there was a big accusation that went around the world now. So far around the world that it started getting to Christian radio stations, and all sorts of craziness. People doing YouTube blogs, all sorts of stupid stuff about my family. And the thing they were doing the most, is they were attacking them saying, ‘your family is witches, they do tarot cards’. (And, he goes on for a while defending his mom, but people had a right to be concerned and to warn. We know that people often pull out the “oh, you’re judging card” when someone warns about a ministry they like, and we know we need to continue to warn even though this happens).
