- I needed this to heal from my experience. AMAZING!
I was apart of the Pentecostal UPC from 12 to 18 years old.
I have a lot of religious trauma- I have been trying to get back into church- but it’s hard after my cult experience. I prayed just this Sunday for a way to get past it. Then I found this podcast. Finding a fellow survivor helps it along. Thank you for putting this out there! ❤️❤️

I’m currently deconstructing my own theism and this podcast has a very direct but yet gentle way of having me question and think critically of some of my long held beliefs. Thanks for being the voice I needed to hear
