I have answered questions about this before. First of all she's pretty disgusting, and not too smart. There is one thing I (somewhat) respect about what she says. Basically she is not willing to compromise, and the Bible is clear that the occult is a real evil (but it doesn't say in the Bible to act like her). I'd rather be around a christian who is serious about their faith than one who thinks it's ok to compromise. The only problem is that her hysteria is quite irrational and she makes other christians look bad. The other sad thing is that although on the show she said she didn't want any of the money, she ended up compromising. While she had good intentions, she ended up compromising anyway, and as C.S.Lewis says: The road to hell is paved with good intentions.
By the way, she has a website too.

The show is called "Trading Spouses" the british version s called Wife Swap..
That episode was bizarre.. I especially enjoyed watching Marguarite Perrin work herself into a frenzy in the car on the way home so she could have a complete meltdown on arrival..
I still LMAO when I watch her have her complete mental breakdown saying she won't take the money.. She not only took the money but appeared on a subsequent episode of the show trading places with another mother..

This behavior is what gives most Christians a bad image.
She was on the show twice. The second time she was WAAAAAYYY BETTER. The second time she was stuck with some ****** of a black man with an inferiority complex who was racist as well. His wife was awesome, but the guy was really mean to the Christian lady and she tried really hard to work with him.

She seems to be very paranoid about anything outside of Jesus. The fact that she was kicking the camera crew out cause they were "taited" shows that she seems so shallow to think that if you're not a Christian then you're evil and "dark-sided". I'm a Christain and I think that her view on her religion seems to be twisted cause as a Christain you should be loving to those around you regardless of their beliefs. The fact that she ended up taking the money was a joke as she proved that she is not as "warrior" as she said she was and doesn't seem to be appreciative or accepting of others. I felt bad for her children.

Watching that video made me feel so sad for her children. That is verbal and emotional abuse and nobody should have to live in such an environment. I think the woman needs professional help for depression or schizophrenia. Sorry to answer your question since I'm not Christian and you addressed it to Christians. I just wanted to share what I thought after seeing it.

That Lady was saved. She Confessed Jesus Christ come in the Flesh.
Now, she had been and still was being attacked by the devil.
She had been decieved in her mind (Soul) and her rationality had been undermined by satan.
Probably took years to get that way.
Some People (Children of GOD, Saved)Wrestle with the Scriptures to their Own Destruction--like Physical Death maybe?
BUT that dosen't mean that if they die they go to the "Bad Place".
When Children of GOD die, they always go to Heaven, no matter how long they get to live on the Earth AFTER they are SAVED.
That Lady (Child of GOD) Probably needed somebody to break off some demonic activity in her Soul (OPPRESSION, not Possession)
and then give her some SOUND TEACHING based on the Word of GOD, so she could HEAL the Damage done by the demons to her soul.
You have to Break the Power of the Main Demon, befor you can Undue the Damage.
She needed help.
Ditto.............but she was Saved

hahahahahahaha, yeah i saw that episode. hehehe, ok, as a christian, what can i say? she is high strung and really judgmental, but america only saw what the show let us see. plus you gotta admit that the show was "loaded" against her from the start, although her personality certainly didn't help matters for other christians. but i must say that she supplied the wood for the fire that the show used to burn her. hahaha, still it was a strange tv moment.

She's a TOTAL psycho and has Christianity all wrong. She's scaring her children, along with almost everyone else who saw that episode.
Not all of us are like that. It's a shame that the one's who are get all the press. It's like they say, one bad apple spoils the whole bunch. She's definitely given Christians a bad name.

The way of the world, Satan fools man into thinking, they are Godly. This woman is possessed by a demonic spirit. See the anger and the fierce way of her profession in God. She wanted to curse and yell. She was bond,by the spirit of deception. She said in the name of Jesus. Even Demons know God and abides by his command. 1 John 5:17-21. She attacked even her family. What is a Christian when God knows your heart? Soon what is in it comes out. That is anyone. Get them angry and critical then you will see. then we will see who is ashamed. It is in them to sin,God has nothing to do with it. We are tried on every side but not shaken. God forgives and often we learn from our mistakes,it hurts when one is purged. Oh by the way...fat has nothing to do with it.

she was definitely angry.......
i do not watch the show....i usually watch christian tv and no one acts like that on there.....
her response was a big extreme...if she was a warrior as she said, she would have handled the situation better...her exagerated response indicated she felt unable to handle the situation that was diagreeable to her....
if i were her, i would have taken the money and said i was not interested in being with witches again....if the other house was into witchcraft....i would have told the other household i was christian and was not interested in their activites....then i would have told them that Jesus loved them and would forgive them if they understood what they were doing was wrong and would repent...but i would do this nicely..since i would be in someone else's house
