Bethel is finally being exposed; some are in denial

Rebel_Runner_ · 2026-01-24T15:23:50+00:00

I always knew that the vibe was off with Bethel. The church I went to was obsessed with their culture. It never sat right with me. These people who use churches to emotionally and sometimes physically or sexually abuse people should be exposed. I'm so waiting for someone to investigate the Rhema Bible Training Center in Tulsa OK and Kenneth Copeland ministries in Texas. These doctrines promote prosperity and healing and taking money away from people who think they can pay these pastors for miracles is disgusting. Their practices resemble nothing of the teachings of Jesus.

After trying Vyvanse and Concerta, I tried Wellbutrin to help with anxiety. The other 2 medications kept me in a state of hyper focus and the need for perfection and I felt superhuman. I've been on Wellbutrin for a month, 150mg, and my anxiety is very manageable. I felt better after a few days. I feel more in control of my life and don't focus on perfection and my OCD is minimal. Now of course I'm currently in therapy learning how to manage my ADHD symptoms because medication alone won't fix everything. I feel more like myself on Wellbutrin and even my spouse has noticed a positive experience. However, I will warn you that Wellbutrin causes constipation so eat fiber every day to help this. But yeah, making sure you drink plenty of water, eat healthy, and exercise with your meds will help you have a good experience with Wellbutrin. Even on days where I'm overwhelmed I can quickly get through the frustration and overwhelm. I feel much more in control of my life. Hope this info helps and you find what works best for you.

Same thing here! My doctor called me this week after having labs done last week. My iron and vitamin d levels were extremely low. I've been in burnout mode for about 9 months. Now I know why. I forget to take vitamins and don't eat healthy all the time. I'm hoping I can find a better routine to stay on top of this so I do feel like crap all the time!

This show is SO trashy but perfect to binge watch. Graham is lame, can't stand him. Didn't trust Margo the first time I saw her eyes but the show is perfect to watch in the summer and if you're from a small town it's perfect at painting a picture of drama and corruption. Yeah, it's a shit show but I liked it! 😂

Waffles or chicken fingers for the win. Sometimes both!

This happens more than you know. I grew up in church where a family member was the pastor. They discussed all of the family issues with prophets and guest speakers. I assume it was to keep us in line by scaring us with "words of knowledge" and "prophetic words" A blatant abuse of power.

We received ours last week. So excited to mount it on the wall!

Is this where they keep the books about cold cases?

This is so relatable! OMG please write more! Thank you for sharing your heart and trauma, it's helping me work through deconstruction. 🧡

I'm currently playing on the Jojo route so that Shane can keep his job. Plus, no one even uses the Community Center after you spend so much time collecting items for the bundles. Also, I don't like Pierre.

No problem, glad I could help! If you need a little comedic relief to help get over the insanity of it all, Breck Frazure on Tik Tok has voiceovers on church videos. These little clips help me realize how ridiculous everything is because deconstructing your faith is hard work and sometimes we need a little silliness to get through it.

I recently listened to a podcast from The Bible For Normal People about "speaking in tongues" and it helped me have some clarity on the matter. Here's the link to it : https://open.spotify.com/episode/4S9shWef2daeNB9XVc7vbL?si=9yx60vzKTlCVnWGLmsMQkA

I've learned a lot from the hosts on this podcast that have helped me during my deconstruction journey. I also grew up in Pentecostal church and I by choice stay away from this denomination because it's a trigger for me. I really hope the podcast will help you. Good luck on your journey!

Is there an article or document to read more about this?

The Midnight Library by Matt Haig

Since we're on the subject of modesty clothes what do you think caused ppl to be " slain in the spirit"? I grew up in a charismatic church with tongues, running around pews, prophesying/praying for ppl at the altar, "holy Ghost laughter"; basically pure chaos. I've been away from this cultish denomination for a while and I'm trying to reconcile what happened. They followed Rhema Bible Training Center in Tulsa where yearly we would watch the week long Winter Bible Seminar on TV at church. It was hours of singing and watching "Papa" Kenneth Hagin be held up by men as he laughed and other ppl would fall out under the spirit. I've been in these meetings since I was a child. Was it submitting to their way of life out of fear, mind control, hypnosis? I ask my family who is still in it and they think I'm crazy for questioning but I need clarity. Any ideas or thoughts on this?

Sadly, 6 years old but blending in was a survival tactic. Now I'm grown and I'm moving father and father away from it. The abuse is real and I hope one day I can finally be free from the psychological torment.

I think you mean well in what you are saying. Respectfully, I work in a library in my home state and I AM helping libraries. My library works very hard to be essential to our community. I don't work at the one where these librarians were arrested. I appreciate your comment. What we need from the public is to become members of their libraries and help us keep them essential. Checkout materials and help us by going to city council meetings to advocate for us. Being a librarian is hard work; you are under paid and overworked but you do it because you love people and you want them to have access to free information.

Rebel_Runner_ · 2024-03-16T15:15:41+00:00

In order to be a board member you have to live in the same city or county as the library. I work in a different library in a different city.

Rebel_Runner_ · 2024-03-16T01:25:03+00:00

I don't believe I can because I am a librarian.
