Merissa is my (David's) wife. 💕 She didn't grow up going to meetings but she professed before we got married. She shares her prospective as an outsider coming into meetings, and how subtle the indoctrination was.

I, David grew up in a legalistic group started in 1897 that denies the deity of Christ and strives in vain towards a worked based salvation. They claim no name, but are known as Meetings, The Truth, Friends & Workers, 2x2s, The Fellowship, The Way, etc. They claim to be a continuation of the 1st century church and the "ministers" or workers, are homeless and go in pairs. However, they stay in members homes known as the Friends. In '23 & '24 a lot of CSA and SA has been revealed in the leadership and members, so many of the Friends are leaving the group. You can find out more about them here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two_by_...

I was born and raised in meetings and left in 2013.
