Lacks journalistic skills - entertainment without accuracy
I really really had high hopes for these series since I have a similar background to Tara. I feel the need for well researched and truthful material that actually brings clarity and reform. These series were unfortunately just pieces of entertainment that lacked journalistic integrity and skill. Testimonies were not verified or fact checked which left the series full of half truths and misinformation. I personally knew many of the people in these stories and know that the producer couldn’t have made much effort to find stories from legit sources and instead picked the low hanging fruit which made for very skewed perspectives and therefore lacked the punch it really could have had.

Fantastic and well balanced pod. It was not condescending to the kind and well meaning participants, whilst critically analysing the ‘holy rollers’.

Can’t wait for the next episode!! A detailed and judgement-free investigation into the world of evangelical faith in the US. Listening to this woman’s experiences are helping me to understand my own, and uncovering memories long since buried. Very well done.

I grew up around TACF and other similar ministries (ohhh the stories you could tell about other charismatic ministries!). I’m currently binging this podcast and finding it very cathartic.
