John and Hannah Joy examine Elim College and its role within Pentecostal and charismatic history, tracing how Latter Rain, shepherding ideas, and modern revival culture intersected without forming a clear authoritarian hierarchy. Drawing from lived experience and historical parallels, they explore how closed religious ecosystems can reward behavior, discourage outside influence, and unintentionally foster spiritual abuse even without explicit top-down control.
The discussion addresses corporal punishment culture, insider libraries, favored speakers, mission programs built in-house, and the power of testimony over doctrine. Rather than offering simplistic labels, the conversation asks harder questions about accountability, community identity, and why some movements persist for decades while others collapse into open authoritarianism.
