Rejecting Legalism, Bill Gothard, and the Theology of Her Childhood w/ Jinger Duggar Vuolo

Growing up in a family with 19 kids and living most of her childhood on reality TV, Jinger Duggar Vuolo has a unique life to say the least. Millions of people loved watching the 19 Kids and Counting show, but often wondered why the Duggars had such strict rules about modesty, romantic relationships, and music. Most people had never heard of a man named Bill Gothard, but behind the scenes, his teachings were the driving force behind the Duggar’s ultra-conservative lifestyle.

As an adult now, Jinger has been on a journey of her own, questioning the rules and theology of her childhood. Rather than throwing out her faith altogether, she’s seeking to disentangle the lies from the truth. Today, we get to chat with Jinger firsthand and ask her all about her new book, Becoming Free Indeed: My Story of Disentangling Faith From Fear.
