Nine years. One strip-mall church. A duffel bag full of cash, a freezing pool full of goldfish, and a pastor who convinced everyone he had a direct line to God.This week, Alisha takes us inside Church of the Harvest — a charismatic California congregation that promised purpose, purity, and a path to the pulpit… but delivered something far darker.Hazing disguised as holiness, unpaid labor disguised as “discipleship,” and extreme control disguised as dating.&nbsp;&nbsp;Because when your pastor asks you to “volunteer” full-time, pay tuition to do it, and maybe jump into a swamp at 3 a.m. to save metaphorical fish — you might just be in a cult.______________________FOLLOW USFor more cult content, behind-the-scenes chaos, and occasional sermons from our strip-mall pulpit:→&nbsp;<a href="https://www.instagram.com/wasiinacult" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@wasiinacult</a>&nbsp;on Instagram & TikTokSUPPORT THE SHOWThe best way to support our ministry of exposing culty bullshit?Rate, review, and share the pod — it’s free, legal, and no one will ask for your debit card “in faith.”If you do want to tithe a little, join us on <a href="https://www.patreon.com/wasiinacult" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Patreon</a> — we promise not to call it “tuition”.
