For as long as I can remember I have grown up in an IFB church. I made my first profession of faith when I was 7, and then another time when I was about 10 or 11, and had some more professions of faith between 13-18, and then finally had is settled at 19 years old....

I grew up in IFB. I went to the church, worked the bus ministry for 8 years from age 10-18, went to the Christian school at the church for 4 years, then did a year of Bible college because that’s what I was “supposed to do” as a young church kid. I even joined the...

I cannot believe I’m even typing this right now. My heart is racing, and my stomach is turning.   I grew up in the IFB. The KJV was the only Bible, southern Gospel was the only music allowed, and knee length skirts and covered shoulders were the norm. Oh, yeah,...

I grew up my whole life in an IFB church. I felt the Lord’s call on my life to serve Him in a full-time capacity when I was 16 years old. I attended a Baptist Bible College and graduated with a Bachelor’s in Pastoral Theology. Upon graduation I got married and my wife...

JC, Nathan, and Brian, I cannot tell you how much of a blessing it has been to have listened to your podcast. It is very professional, enlightening, uplifting, and entertaining. I pastor a small IFB church in South Louisiana. I grew up in a KJV only, hell hating,...

I was raised in an IFB home, school and church. I went to an IFB Bible College. Served for a few years at an IFB church. I started to see inconsistency within the IFB from my church, my friends church and others on social media. I saw how they placed tradition over...

I am binge listening to your podcast.  Just discovered you guys last week. Thank you so much for doing this! Today I listened to the interview with Craig Edwards. I can relate to him so much when he says his biggest regret with his time in the IFB movement was what it...

I grew up, was saved in, and now pastor an IFB church. It wasn’t until I found this podcast that I began to realize that what I was preaching and teaching was not doctrine but manipulation. I did not preach the freedom of Christ, but I was preaching the “movements”...

The journey started as a church plant with two other friends. We all graduated from different IFB Bible colleges but still managed to get along :). Not going to lie, we held to IFB traditions when things first started. It is ironic that the traditional IFB Baptist...
