You formed the words I have struggled to…

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...

Should I even write this…?

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,...

IFB NO MORE

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...

Thank you!

Hi Guys! I want to thank you for all that you have allowed the Lord to do through you. I am currently 21 years old and grew up in the IFB the majority of my life. My journey starts at 17 when I wanted to get away from legalism. But quickly turned into a study about...

I feel I harmed my children with IFB

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...
