Ex Pastor of The Universal Church- Tony’s Story (Part 2): In the Thick of High-Demand Religion

In Part 2 of Tony’s story, he takes us deeper into his experience within the church—where the abuse didn’t stop, it only evolved.


After years of being conditioned to accept suffering as love, Tony stepped into the class where he was met with relentless control, emotional and psychological abuse, and the crushing weight of expectations designed to break him and those like him. The same system that once made him feel wanted now used him, manipulated him, and drained him of everything he had to give.


From spiritual coercion to pressure and punishment for questioning authority, Tony’s journey exposes the dark reality behind the pulpit. His story is a powerful reminder of how these organizations trap not just followers, but also those who serve within them.
