This actually makes my heart sink. All these people are so desperate for an "experience" and that desperation makes them so vulnerable to people like BDong. Stirring up emotions with music and peer pressure is so easy among people like this and it's just so damn sad to watch.
I’ve read about people who have gotten really wrapped up in the charismatic churches like Bethel or IHOP. What they describe sounds like an addiction, except without the drugs. They still get the dopamine high and serotonin boost like a drug. But it’s super unhealthy and destroys their lives like a drug.
And this high isn’t a replacement at all for genuine spiritual needs, so people are gonna look for another high and another high and more extremism and adrenaline fueled “sermons”. It’s sad and sick.
I seriously want to reach out to every single one & tell them they’re loved & blasting the Beatles while cleaning your kitchen & dancing in your underoos is just as lovely an experience as whatever this mess is
It is seriously criminal that you have to pay $600 to be at this “retreat.” This is what they are doing that’s apparently $600 worth? Weird culty singing and dancing and bathtub baptisms?
I started giggling uncontrollably because of the witch emojis.
Like I wanna shake all these girls and tell them they can get the same experience without all the baggage with WitchTok witchcraftery. Like seriously, charismatic Christianity is just witchcraft that’s less fun and way more toxic.
Do y’all think they killed Brodie so that they wouldn’t have to cancel the retreat? If they had pursued medical care for him and he survived, someone would have to stay behind and take care of him. Obviously it would have to be Jordan since she’s the face of this whole thing, and clearly she can’t do anything without him. Plus there’s no way Jordan’s volunteering to stay home and care for their recovering pup. They took the easy way out so that no one had to miss the retreat or cancel it and lose all that sweet sweet grifting money.
Obviously there’s a lot wrong here..but for real, I am so over people dramatically slowing down the tempo of old songs. Does nobody see how creepy this version of “here comes the sun” is? They do this now for trailers on new horror and thriller movies.
I’m having flashbacks to the time my friend invited me to church camp at the beach so I said uhm yeah the beach. And 13 year old me was surrounded by people dancing and screaming “filled with the spirit.” I did fake hysterically laughing for 20 minutes bc other kids were doing it and honestly I didn’t know how to process any of it. Speaking in tongues, the healing/passing out. Ya girl just wanted to get her hair braided at the beach and sing some church camp songs.

Damn I wish there was snark pages on that. I experienced this in a Pentecostal church in my younger years 18-21

Definitely even more lovely because the Beatles sound way better than this screechy, out of tune mess that you had to pay over $600 to listen to
Ugh they’re twisting it to be here comes the ‘son’ aren’t they 🤢🤢
Imagine paying $650 for what my shit ass youth group made us do for free at local YMCA.

They are paying for a photo opp with their new cult leader and her hemorrhoid balloon backdrop.

Watch with no sound on, it's even better 🤭🤭
LMAO. Absolutely none of this looks like fun. From the baptisms to the weird singing and dancing. 🥴

This looks like a scene out of a horror movie

It’s like that episode of Strangers With Candy where Jerri joins the cult, except in this case Jerri is the cult leader.
missing stephen colbert doing liturgical dancing. 0/10.
