Today we\u2019re joined by Jinger Duggar Vuolo, author of "Becoming Free Indeed: My Story of Disentangling Faith from Fear," and formerly of the "19 Kids and Counting" franchise. In her new book, Jinger shares her theological journey from following a fundamentalist leader to finding freedom in Christ. We discuss her upbringing under the teachings of Bill Gothard, who taught strict rules on modesty and behavior, and how these teachings were rooted in fear, superstition, and control and led Jinger to believe she needed to earn favor with God. We discuss her childhood growing up on TV (despite never watching TV), struggling with an eating disorder, and wrestling with the idea of attending a church outside her doctrine growing up. We discuss how Jinger met her husband, Jeremy, and how his theology helped shape hers. Jinger explains the difference between \u201cdeconstruction\u201d and \u201cdisentangling\u201d faith and why disentangling can lead to true restoration under biblical truth.\n\n---\n\nTimecodes:\n\n(01:09) Interview with Jinger begins / "Becoming Free Indeed"\n(02:00) Bill Gothard's teaching\n(08:58) Growing up on TV\n(14:50) Struggling with fear\n(19:30) Struggling with an eating disorder\n(22:00) Parental authority & gaining favor with God\n(27:30) Letting go of old theology\n(40:20) Deconstruction vs. disentanglement\n\n---\n\nToday's Sponsors:\n\nA'Del \u2014 go to adelnaturalcosmetics.com and enter promo code "ALLIE" for 25% off your first order!\n\nEdenPURE \u2014 get 3 Thunderstorm Air Purifiers for under $200 at EdenPureDeals.com, use promo code 'ALLIE3'!\n\nPatriot Mobile \u2014 go to PatriotMobile.com/ALLIE or call 878-PATRIOT and use promo code 'ALLIE' to get free activation!\n\n---\n\nRelevant Episodes:\n\nEp 176 | Jeremy Vuolo https://apple.co/3Dbh8fC\n\nEp 730 | When God Calls You to Tell Jokes | Guest: Joel Berry https://apple.co/3WFnw5L\n\n---\n\nBuy Allie's book, You're Not Enough (& That's Okay): Escaping the Toxic Culture of Self-Love: https://alliebethstuckey.com/book\n\nRelatable merchandise \u2013 use promo code 'ALLIE10' for a discount: https://shop.blazemedia.com/collections/allie-stuckey\nLearn more about your ad choices.
