Unmasking the Horrors: Survivors Confront Bernard Chaney's Cult

And it's really hard because I grew up in a very toxic church and I experienced a lot of psychological and emotional abuse.
Picture a life where every aspect is controlled by a manipulative cult leader. In this gripping episode of 'Speaking Up with Andrew Pledger', Sonya Morris bravely recounts her harrowing experiences under Bernard Chaney, the pastor of 'Believers House Worldwide Ministries'. For years, Chaney wielded his power to inflict severe spiritual, physical, psychological, and sexual abuse on his followers.
Sonya's story is not just about her own suffering but also the torment her daughter endured at the church's school, 'Voice of Believers Academy'. Chaney's methods of control were insidious, using fear, guilt, and shame to keep members in line. He even went as far as controlling their finances and forcing them to eat filth. Survivors like Sonya are now seeking justice for the children who were sexually assaulted and are determined to see Chaney held accountable for his crimes.
This episode sheds light on the devastating impact of cults and the long road to healing from such profound trauma. It's a powerful testament to the resilience of those who have endured unimaginable abuse and are now courageously speaking out. If you're interested in understanding the dark side of religious manipulation and the strength it takes to break free, this episode is a must-listen.
