Paperback: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1735160962
Kindle: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DCGGZX3K
John invites Phil Duncalfe, a former member of New Frontiers, to discuss his experiences within the movement. Phil reflects on his varied religious background, detailing how he transitioned from growing up in a missionary family to joining New Frontiers during his university years. He shares insights into the community-oriented culture, its focus on leadership development, and the theological underpinnings of the movement. The discussion delves into the organization’s male-only eldership, charismatic worship practices, and the struggles some members face when leaving due to tightly knit communities.
The conversation shifts to more critical observations of New Frontiers, touching on issues like hierarchical structures, information control, and lack of accountability within leadership. Phil recounts his challenges as an elder, including navigating conflicts, concerns over transparency, and the movement’s evolving structure under multiple leaders. John and Phil discuss the parallels between New Frontiers and other movements with authoritarian tendencies, reflecting on the importance of questioning and accountability in religious organizations.
