-
- Documentary
Surviving Bob Jones University: A Christian Cult is a limited podcast by Andrew Pledger. The podcast is a thought-provoking series that delves into the history of BJU, the psychology of fundamentalism, the criteria for cults, and survivors’ experiences. BJU is a controversial fundamentalist Christian college, and this podcast sheds light on the experiences of those who have survived this high-control environment. The series features interviews with a diverse group of survivors, including queer people, BIPOC, women, and men who share their unique perspectives on the institution.
Through these interviews, listeners gain insight into the strict rules, culture, and leadership of Bob Jones University, and how it has impacted the lives of those who attended. The series also examines how the institution's fundamentalist beliefs have contributed to a toxic and damaging environment for many students. Listeners will hear powerful stories of resilience, healing, and growth from survivors who have overcome the trauma and abuse they experienced at the Christian college.
Surviving Bob Jones University: A Christian Cult is a must-listen for anyone interested in understanding the complex and often overlooked ways in which cults can harm vulnerable individuals and communities. The series provides a powerful and eye-opening exploration of one of the most notorious religious institutions in the country and its impact on survivors from all backgrounds.
