Why do so many Pentecostal pastors think yelling at their congregation is no big deal? Today’s episode exposes the loudmouth preachers who’ve confused verbal abuse with “anointing”. SPOILER ALERT:intimidation-filled screaming and guilt-tripping people into obedience isn’t biblical. Justin and Tiffany unpack how this aggressive preaching style manipulates listeners through fear and control, all while being passed off as"passion." If you’re tired of being spiritually bullied from the pulpit, tune in—it’s time to call this nonsense what it is - abuse - and reclaim your peace.

Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; - 1 Corinthians 13:4-5
