Colleen and Nikki are so inspiring!

I look forward to going through the Bible every week with these two!! I love hearing about the contrasts they share on the Adventist world views and the Christian true gospel world-view! Amen! Former Adventist or not you will be fed the word and led to Christ Jesus! Love you both!

Wow! Such great souls sharing TRUTH!

I think any denomination that puts any emphasis on anything other than the Bible is so sad. So many souls are searching for answers that can be found in the scriptures. Not scripture + (prophets) These ladies help break down Adventist beliefs so well and point out their false teachings. This podcast will answer any questions one wondering if they’re in one of these False teaching churches. We can have confidence knowing that we have more than enough in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

CC is unhappy ,

I’m a Christian now!

I was a 3rd generation SDA. I always loathed EGW growing up because of the inconsistency with which my parents applied her writings to our lives. The dos and don’ts were applied only as they saw fit. Some things we had to adhere to emphatically, while others not so much. It was a religion I grew weary of many years ago. While I quit going to church for a very long time I still considered myself an SDA. I finally decided I needed to start getting my heart right and wanted to start studying my Bible again and ultimately start going back to church. After talking to my daughter about the large amount of plagiarism that EGW had done I knew I had to learn more. I am so thankful that my daughter directed me to your podcasts as I was studying my way out of adventism. I started listening to your podcasts in 2020 during Covid. I actually went back to episode 1 and binge listened until I caught up. There are so many things I have had to unpack about what I thought I knew to be true and your podcasts have helped me through this so much! I finally made the last and final step this past June when I sent a letter to the Georgia Cumberland Conference office asking them to pull my name from their membership. That was amazingly easy! Within 2 weeks I had a response confirming that they had removed my name.

Thank you! thank you! thank you!
