“Hearing the Voice of God” was a teaching that permeated everything that happened at YWAM. In this episode, we discuss how the concept of hearing the voice of God was twisted and used manipulatively among students and staff.

Let's back up and re-introduce ourselves. Join us as we share how this podcast came about and our heart behind it.

Maddie and Katie are joined once again by Daniel to discuss more of what relationships were like in YWAM. Daniel shares his experience as a school staff member and the systemic cycle of spiritual abuse.

Maddie and Katie are joined by Katie's husband Daniel to discuss what relationships were like in YWAM. Katie and Daniel share their experience as a couple in YWAM and what they witnessed among the staff and other students.

In the wake of the recent passing of YWAM founder Loren Cunningham, Maddie and Katie discuss the tendency to put spiritual leaders on a pedestal and the mentality that causes someone to do so.

In this episode, we discuss Katie's journey of joining YWAM and what draws young people to this ministry, as well as the definition of "reckless abandon", and the “high” of being a YWAMer.
