    Growing Up Fundie, Ep. 154: Lynn Daren on Discovering She Wasn't Alone
    2024/08/25

    Spiritually speaking, Lynn was raised as a devout Catholic, before her family later transitioned into a more Charismatic-leaning Christian church.

    As an adult, however, Lynn realized that (despite her actions and intentions growing up) she has actually been a non-believer for over 20 years. She has also been bi-sexual as well.

    Lynn is currently a lawyer-turned-freelance-editor who edits books, articles, screenplays, and everything in between. She is also a writer, and recently published a Bible fan fiction novel called “The Prophet Steven.”

    Hear her story in her own words on this episode of “Growing Up Fundie” and then check out her book, linked below:

  • Growing Up Fundie, Ep. 153: "Surviving Bill Gothard," Lindsey's Story

    Growing Up Fundie, Ep. 153: "Surviving Bill Gothard," Lindsey's Story
    2024/07/22

    View the visual version of this episode here:
    https://youtu.be/lZFazV_SdfU

    Lindsey grew up in a religious family that devoutly followed the now-infamous IBLP IBLP organization, or “The Institute in Basic Life Principles.”

    Made infamous by documentaries like “Shiny Happy People,” on Amazon Prime (which Lindsey was also featured in), this church was lead by Bill Gothard, a man who somehow convinced, and still convinces, people across the world to live by rules and values he somehow didn’t have to follow himself.

    In this episode, Lindsey tells us, in detail, her experience being one of the chosen “Gothard Girls,” and how spending time with Bill Gothard one-on-one shaped her young mind, and lead her to the crusade she now leads to spread awareness of his terrible legacy, and destroy the facade of “goodness” and “holiness” he managed to create.

  • Growing Up Fundie, Ep. 150: Darante' Lamar - A Former Pastor's Lessons on Not Backing Down

    Growing Up Fundie, Ep. 150: Darante' Lamar - A Former Pastor's Lessons on Not Backing Down
    2024/06/21

    Watch the visual version of this episode here: https://youtu.be/M3aVTqQkoss

    Darante’ Lamar was once the most devoutly religious person in his family.

    After finding God, and dedicating his life to being a pastor, he started to realize that even the people at the top of the food chain (who he considered to be mentors himself), still didn’t have all the answers. In fact, they didn’t appear to have very many answers at all.

    In his desire to seek guidance and reasoning, he began to uncover things he quickly understood he’d never be able to unsee. He also recognized that his entire life would likely never be the same again.

  • Growing Up Fundie, Ep. 148: Brett M on Being a Free-Thinking Christian

    Growing Up Fundie, Ep. 148: Brett M on Being a Free-Thinking Christian
    2024/06/07

    148 Brett M. considers himself a free-thinking Christian.

    He recognizes that in order to hang his hat on a belief system, and claim that he wants to follow a specific faith or religion, he has to feel as though he’s done as much research as he possibly can in order to feel comfortable calling himself a Christian.

    In this episode, Brett describes this experience, and how his thoughts and opinions are received by both atheists and Christians alike.

    https://youtu.be/FrRgKx1vaGg

    Danny B. was enrolled in Christian school until the 1st grade, after which he became homeschooled all the way through high school. Throughout this time, Danny was raised to believe that things like bad math skills, and being bullied at church camp, could only be resolved through prayer.

    After a tumultuous childhood involving accusations of demonic possession, food being withheld as punishment, and other symptoms of a high-control environment, Danny realized that figuring out who he was outside of religion and control depended on him, and seeking help from outside sources to unravel his past, and pave the way for his future.
