The Cult Next Door

Ep.11: "Pulling On A Thread" - Part 1


Listen Later



In the riveting first part of our two-part series, "Pulling On A Thread," hosts Ashleigh and Mattie embark on a deeply personal journey as they explore Ashleigh's profound experience of leaving The Living Church of God, a significant offshoot of the Worldwide Church of God. Like the delicate act of pulling on a thread in a sweater, what begins as a small revelation unravels into a transformative exploration of faith and self-discovery.

Ashleigh shares the intimate details of her time within The Living Church of God and the events that led to her eventual departure. Through candid conversations, the hosts delve into the intricacies of religious beliefs, community dynamics, and the emotional toll of questioning one's faith.

As the thread of Ashleigh's story is pulled, listeners witness the unraveling of deeply ingrained beliefs and the emergence of new perspectives. The episode captures the vulnerability and courage required to confront one's faith, challenging the status quo and embracing the uncertainty of a spiritual journey in uncharted territory.
