Gloriavale - or Gloriafail: The infamous New Zealand cult has been in the courts and in the headlines recently. For how much longer can it keep going?
In this powerful episode of Decult Talks, Liz Gregory from the Gloriavale Leavers’ Support Trust hosts a moving panel with lawyer Dennis Gates and Gloriavale survivors Pearl Valor and Virginia Courage. Together, they explore the complex legal, emotional and social challenges faced by those rebuilding their lives after leaving the fundamentalist Christian community.
Recorded live at the first Decult Conference in Christchurch, New Zealand, and produced as a podcast by Plains Media.
Tune in for a heart-wrenching yet hopeful discussion about survival, justice, and the journey to freedom.
