To me it was always was more about the men. This is another example. They helped when it was the man who was ill... that if I remember correctly John Miller cared about this couple supposedly. I saw this over and over. Was John still there, at that point? I had left TLWF by then. Don't get me started on Bruce Larson. Those they could get things out of, they wined and dined but little did the wives know they were nothing. Get divorced and you are dropped... so many times I saw it. So many times I saw men being blessed when women needed attention... help. Problem was I didn't realize how bad...I wish I had known. I was born in this...it was frustrating being a girl and then a woman. I was told I was born a prophetess but when I spoke up about things I saw I was silenced. I'm so thankful to not have to worry about all that any more. I'm actually in a good place in my life. It's nice to just be me.
