The town of Sellersburg had started leasing the building from Nolan in March, 2009 for $6,900 per month, but was unable to maintain the operating expenses. In 2010, Sellersburg reported a $10,823-per-month deficit on the Nolan Fieldhouse, with the annual income cited at $182,000 and expenditures at $312,000.
The same year in which Voice of God Recordings reported a $100 million dollar increase in assets and began moving assets into the Jehovah Jireh Foundation, the Nolan Fieldhouse was sold to the Branham movement. According to Clark County property records, the building was purchased for $1.65 million dollars. According to Nolan, the building would function as a private facility for children of the Branham movement, otherwise known as Young Foundations
Messages left with Voice of God Recordings and Branham Tabernacle were not returned. Nolan said he believed the fieldhouse will be used as a private facility for the children in the church.

Eventually, however, adult church services transitioned from the Branham Tabernacle in Jeffersonville to the building used by Young Foundations. Branham cult followers gather for services to listen to the 1947-1965 recorded sermons of William Branham, which have been banned in other countries after it was confirmed that Branham used brainwashing technique in his speech patterns.
In April of 2017, an examination by experts of St. Petersburg State University revealed that the texts contained "technics of neuro-linguistic programming" aimed to set up the spectre of an enemy and insult the feelings of certain religious believers and priests. The results of the expert examination served as the basis of the claim, according to the statement.
