A personal journey into the heart of a global megachurch.
Noemi Uribe was looking for a church where everyone is welcome and she thought she’d found it in Hillsong. But that was ‘the most expensive mistake I ever made’. Noemi’s story turned into one of rejection, despair, and a fight for justice. Hillsong used to be home, now for Noemi ‘it’s a dumpster fire’

Glad hillsong is finally being exposed
The severe lack of empathy in some of these reviews is staggering. Someone’s spiritual and religious journey is deeply personal, and organizations that exploit that do immeasurable harm to religious adherents.

Pastors like to think of themselves as “counselors,” but they have no mental health training. The “help” they offered Noemi was akin to the ... more
You went to a Christian church, volunteered too much of your time knowing you wouldn’t be paid and they didn’t accept your gay lifestyle sooooo that means life or death?

That’s not to negate the experience of Noemi and her guests, it’s just not what I thought this podcast would be.
