Explicit content warning

06/24/23 • 55 min

For the next few episodes, we will update the listeners on general themes in Christianity. How do we feel about the Bible? Is it the Word of God? How should we treat it or understand it based on the realities of how it came to be?

Like all other topics, we invite your opinion and encourage you to think for yourself. We don’t claim to know the answer to everything, but we realize that just because we did something for a long time doesn’t necessarily make it right for this age.

269 – Karl & Laura – Church and the Duggars

In this episode, we review the mini-series called “Shiny, Happy People,” which exposes the Dugger family and Bill Gothard’s IBLP group. To us, this ties in well with our experience and how we feel about organized religion.

271 – Lauren Rose – From Survivor to Thriver

As a survivor (now thriver), Lauren Rose advocates for women who are victims of coercive control, domestic abuse, and sexual abuse. Her desire for truth and justice led her to become Jane Doe IV in the lawsuit against Bill Gothard. She currently works full-time for Called to Peace Ministries, a domestic abuse advocacy, as Communications Coordinator, where she loves providing education, support, hope, and peace for those impacted by abuse. “Abuse and coercion may have been part of my story, but it isn’t the end. What I’ve experienced now drives me to use my voice, knowledge, and understanding to let others know it doesn’t have to be the end of your story either.”
