Beyond BJU: Exposing Fundamentalism

I Never Belonged - Mary Hubbard


Listen Later

In this episode, we delve into the life of Mary Hubbard, who shares her experiences growing up at Dyer Baptist Church in the IFB movement. Dyer Baptist is an offshoot of FBC Hammond Baptist Church. She also shares her experiences attending BJU. She discusses the controversial events that led to her expulsion from BJU, including a relationship with a staff member and the aftermath, which involved counseling programs and harsh judgments. Mary also discusses her move to Lynchburg, VA, her marriage, and her experiences at Liberty University. Her journey of deconstructing evangelical Christianity, her current husband's struggle with mental health in the church, and their subsequent departure from organized religion provide a powerful perspective on faith and individualism. Listen to Mary's inspiring journey to freedom and self-discovery.
