I'm out, now what?

  • Find a healthy church, victims of cults often fall prey to another abusive church, read this post to prevent that from happening, and watch this video.
  • Read the Bible, now you no longer spend an average of 10 hours per week attending CFM activities, you have plenty of time to discover what the Bible really says.
  • Seek help, whether you think you’re fine or not, it may help to talk to a professional about your experiences at CFM.

What can I do to stop CFM?

  • Contact the police, a lot of what happened to you may be considered abuse by someone in a position of power, which is illegal.
  • Inform the government, Christian Fellowship Ministries is considered a charity, a Public Benefit Organisation, or in Dutch an ANBI. You can send the government a letter to inform them what happens behind closed doors.

Recommended books

We added this section for those who seek healing in their spiritual life, to discover what Christianity is actually supposed to be. This is in no way similar to the Wayman Mitchell recommended book list. These books are either to correct CFM’s doctrinal errors, or to recognize what made Potter’s House an abusive church. Many of those who leave an abusive church, sadly end up in one down the road. Reading these books helps prevent that.
