by Tracey and Sharon
<p>Feet of Clay – Confessions of the Cult Sisters – What's it like to live in a Christian cult commune? How the hell do smart people get brainwashed into crazy beliefs and behaviors? Tracey & Sharon share their parallel journeys into and out of Last Days Ministries, led by Christian music super-star Keith Green (and later his wife Melody Green). Plus they interview others who also got out of high-control groups and toxic churches. Arranged marriages? Purity culture virgins? Religious trauma? Submission of women and misogyny? Child abuse? Sexual assault? Power hungry patriarchy? Heinous homophobia? Christian nationalism and politics? Yep, we touch on it all. Hear stories of escaping evangelicalism, surviving spiritual manipulation, deconstructing fundamentalism and so much more! Former cult sisters, now turned Exvangelical, tell all with humor and healing, compassion and comedy. Bi-weekly. </p>

In a former life, he was a high-profile Pentecostal preacher, in Australia’s megachurches such as Hillsong. His autobiography, ‘A Life of Unlearning’, became a bestseller and now in its third edition. The memoir details Anthony’s rise to prominence and his several decades long struggle with homosexuality including constant prayer, counselling, fasting, conversion “therapy”, exorcisms and marriage, trying NOT to be gay. A chance encounter shattered the wall of denial he’d built and thrust him through a maze of public scandal, rejection, isolation, and trauma. People often say it’s a miracle he survived.</p><p>Since 2004, his book, writing and organisations have been a source of resolution and healing. Anthony has worked with over 4,000 conversion “therapy” survivors and many more individuals experiencing faith/sexuality conflict.</p><p>Anthony is the founder and CEO of Ambassadors & Bridge Builders International. He has been recognised for his contribution several times, including being twice voted one of the 25 Most Influential Gay and Lesbian Australians and in 2020 was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia for his service to the LGBTQ community.</p><p>Another claim to fame is that in 2008, along with Heath Ledger, Darren Hayes and Peter Allen, Anthony was named one of Australia’s Poster Children for Sin by the infamous Rev Fred Phelps from the Westboro (God Hates Fags) Baptist Church.</p><p>Much of Anthony’s work came together recently when he worked with survivors and the state government to see legislation pass banning conversion "therapy". </p><p><br/><br/></p><p><br/><br/></p><p><a href='https://www.instagram.com/feetofclay.cultsisters/'>https://www.instagram.com/feetofclay.cultsisters</a><br/><a href='https://feetofclayconfessionsofthecultsisters.buzzsprout.com'>https://feetofclayconfessionsofthecultsisters.buzzsprout.com</a><br/><br/>We love acronyms -- and we aren't afraid to use them!
