In this episode, we delve into Bill Gothard’s troubling teachings from the IBLP Men’s Manual, where normal childhood behaviors are labeled as rebellion, and natural curiosity is framed as spiritual defiance. We start with Gothard’s “Early Signs of Rebellion” checklist, which misinterprets typical developmental stages as threats to parental authority. From there, we explore how Gothard uses graphic imagery, such as the raven and eagle analogy, to instill fear and manipulate obedience. His use of disturbing visuals—like a raven pecking at the eye of a cow—turns ordinary child development into a source of anxiety and control. Join me as we examine how these teachings contribute to a culture of fear, shame, and confusion in families
