First, I must say I have been a little hesitant to share my journey. I have listened for awhile and can agree with much y’all discuss about the nonsense that goes within the name of “Fundamentalism.” But, I didn’t grow up in the hermetically...

I’m not sure how unique my story is, but I was saved in a staunchly KJVO church in upstate SC that also belonged to the SBC. The Pastor, who is unfortunately no longer in the ministry, had all of the characteristics of an IFB pastor yet could not stand IFB...

I would like to offer some advice from a difficult experience which I had in my church, which God used to greatly transform me, and to mold me into the man I have become today. But I’d like to share my testimony of salvation first. I’m a Christian of 30...

First, I’d like to thank the entire RFP family for your pursuit of exposing truth while highlighting God’s grace and love. I was born and raised in the IFB church and can relate to much of what Lois and Emily have already discussed pertaining to women specifically in...

Let me apologize up front for this being long but my journey was long. I will try to get it down to the “readers digest” version as best I can. First off, let me say, I cannot look back on my life in the IFB and completely regret it because I accepted...
