Chuck Smith to Potter's House: A Survivor Speaks Out

John talks with Joel Crosby, a former member of Potter's House / The Door, about growing up inside a high-control religious environment, the pressure to conform, and the painful effects on family, friendships, dating, and mental health. Joel shares how pastoral authority, fear of losing salvation, and group loyalty shaped his childhood and young adult life.

Joel also explains how disturbing allegations, church leadership responses, and his own research led him to question the system he had trusted. The conversation explores Potter's House, Wayman Mitchell, Chuck Smith, Prescott, the New Apostolic Reformation, religious control, cult recovery, and how former members rebuild life after leaving.
