John and Matt discuss growing up in Global Missions, a movement rooted in the Latter Rain revival, and how its doctrines of five-fold ministry, sonship, and prophetic authority shaped their lives. Matt shares what it was like to be born into this third-generation high-control group, his struggles with fear, dating, and suppressed critical thinking, and how he eventually found freedom through outside connections and careful study. Together, they explore how groups attempt to cover up their history, why reformation claims often fail, and how the same mechanisms of authoritarian control can appear in different denominations. The conversation also touches on William Branham’s influence, British Israelism, the connection to Jim Jones, and the challenges of trusting God versus human leaders. This heartfelt dialogue offers encouragement to those leaving similar movements and highlights the importance of grounding faith in Christ rather than cult structures.
