Episode Description from the Publisher

They promised healing. They delivered a show. In this episode, we dive into the dark underbelly of faith healing—where staged miracles, emotional exploitation, and spiritual manipulation rake in millions. From televangelist theatrics to tent revival cons, we expose how desperate people are preyed upon in the name of God. This isn't just deception—it's a system built on false hope and fat wallets.We talk the grift, the guilt, and the god-complex behind miracle ministries—and why the truth is often buried under a mountain of money and microphones.Big Bob Tilton https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1IzpRSKqW2M(Excerpt ) Peter Popoff exposed in Aron Ranen's Documentary Film "Television Believers"https://youtu.be/IwfGRHINJUA?si=5gbfAdZEeq7mX_66Marjo Documentaryhttps://youtu.be/s-NwKD9laZw?si=5eqpCK5qNacgMp8s🎵 🎵 Opening music by The Demigs: ⁠⁠⁠Black Valley Fight⁠⁠⁠🎵 Closing music by The Demigs: ⁠⁠⁠Monochrome Blues⁠⁠⁠🌐 Resources:Adult Children of Alcoholics: ⁠⁠⁠https://adultchildren.org⁠⁠⁠ – for support, healing, and recoveryFreedom From Religion Foundation: ⁠⁠⁠https://ffrf.org⁠⁠⁠Paulogia Podcast: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/paulogia⁠⁠⁠Matt Dillahunty: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@SansDeity⁠⁠⁠#ReligiousTrauma #Exvangelical #SpiritualAbuse #Deconstruction #FaithHealing #ChurchHurt
