Growing up at IHOP the word “cult” was more common than you’d probably think. This is not the first time that IHOP has been called a cult. It’s been called one since day one. My friends and I would always make jokes about it. But it did become a pattern.
I always look forward to your posts, Chloe. Please do continue to write and process. One of the virtues is “Right Intention.” Whether or not you were raised in a cult, I know positively that your parents raised you with pure and right intention…
Thank you Art. I look forward to your kind comments. I agree, the intention of the heart makes a big difference. I am very thankful for the way my parents raised my siblings and I to seek the Lord.
Your insight is profound. I know there was a lot of good fruit that came out of Sovereign Grace Ministries and Covenant life church. But there was a lot of bad counsel. There were some liberties that were taken that shouldn’t have been. I wish it could be all good or all bad. But life’s not like that and neither is ministry.
