Exposing IBLP: Bill Gothard’s Harmful Myths About Alcohol, Crime, and Thought Control | Episode 4

Bill Gothard and the IBLP have shaped how many Christians view alcohol, crime, and even people's thoughts—but do these teachings hold up to biblical truth? In this episode, we examine Gothard’s claims about alcoholism, where he portrays any use of alcohol as the "sin of drunkenness". We also explore his approach to crime and justice, which emphasizes strict authority and personal responsibility while overlooking deeper societal issues. Finally, we take a closer look at his teachings on thought control, which discourage questioning and critical thinking. Join us as we compare these ideas to Scripture and uncover the real impact of IBLP’s teachings.Umbrella Rebellion is a podcast where we share our experience in the ATI/IBLP and fundamental cults.
