I couldn't leave with 3 children. I had no money, no job, no education and he kept us isolated. After 23 yrs found a very small article in the newspaper stating if you did no have a high school diploma you could take a college entry exam - I started college the next day after taking the exam. I graduated with a degree in nursing. He had kicked me out with 1 semester left. Divorced 25 yrs. Never looked back. He died in 2022 - oh well!! Life is good!!
It's so terribly sad, that angry corrupt people hide behind God and religion to carry out their anger and corruption. This isn't about God. This is about an awful man. I'm so sorry, that you two beautiful ladies had to endure that. God Bless you both.
Mark, in the future please do not put the locations of where domestic abuse survivors are currently residing. Even just putting their current city is extremely dangerous for them. Their father has shown up to different places where they have been at before, you don’t know what these abusers are capable of. So their locations should be protected.
I watched this as a Christian in its entirety. I’m so offended that this creepy, godless man is still out there posing as a Christian. The part where he got “stimulated” while fiercely beating his little girl was especially loathesome and vile.
Hi, Many states now have Address Confidentiality Programs/Safe at Home for high-risk crime victims. I got CA's passed into law more than 25 yrs ago. It copies WA state's model law and program, the first state to do it. "Safe at Home :: California Secretary of State" www.sos.ca.gov/registries/safe-home
Massive respect to these two beautiful and intelligent women 👊🏼 Thank you for sharing your life story and traumatic experiences with us. In present day we are learning of the abuse Mica Miller suffered under her Pastor husband, so many abuse these positions of power across all religions unfortunately. May you both continue to go from strength to strength 🙏🏼
She is correct. In the south and in certain Pentecostal sects, women are taught that any man who is a “preacher”, whether a seminary graduate or just a self-anointed wannabe part time preacher, is to be put above any man who was not called to be a preacher simply because he is “a man of god.” A pathetic theology.
An amazing mom and daughter with such forgiving hearts. Sending prayers and continued healing to this family. Thank you Mark. The work you do is remarkable & much appreciated.
Beautiful people and thank you for this story. I hope a lot of people listen to there story. The mother has such a soft spoken voice . Congratulations Alesha
Npd abd psychopathic abusers need to be jailed for life. Laws need to change around this so that their behavior is criminal! Our society is un educated on this bigtime and being played by them.
My heart goes out to the mother and the daughter and of course the siblings that are not present. How many people do we know hide behind religion. I am so glad. The mother was finally able to break free both out of mentally and physically abusive marriage. I was in a verbally abusive marriage, which was going to turn physical and it is extremely hard to break free. I was in it almost 20 years.
I was in an abusive relationship for almost 15 years both verbally and physical abuse 24/7 ..everything was my fault..nothing ever was good enough..I was walking on eggshells constantly..no sleep at night because he was standing next to my bed and screaming for hours how horrible I am as a person ..with lots of prayers and gods help I am free after so many years 🙏🏼🎊🎊🎊
Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! The King James Bible warns about falsely professing "Christians" and ministers of Satan. There're many devils preaching in America's pulpits who are NOT born-again bondservants of Jesus Christ.
U betcha! My own brother is one! Preacher, liar, money hungry, embezzling over $250K in my brothers and I inheritance money and goes right beck to scream JESUS SAVES O RABABABA CHAKAKANNA A
Such a compelling interview with Gina and Alesha. It's fascinating to hear their perspectives and experiences as the family of a street preacher in Western Tennessee. Their strength and resilience really shine through. Thanks for sharing their story, Mark .
I COME FROM A SOUTHERN FAMILY....MY MOTHER ALSO WENT THREW THE SAME ABUSE, 50YRS....SHE HAD NO PLACE TO RUN BACK THEN. SHE DIED 3 WEEKS AFTER THERE 50TH wedding anniversary. AND MY FATHER LIVED ANOTHER 9YRS ALL ALONE AND WE NEVER SPOKE AGAIN. HE IS BURNING IN HELL AS WE SPEAK. KARMA A BITCH.
Reading your comment I am so sorry to hear your mother went through that. I think especially in times gone by society was different, men earned, ruled and what they said went leaving many women in hopeless situations. I hope you are in a happy place with people who value you and you can remember your mother with fondness. P.S I love what you say about Karma. Bought a big smile to my face!
@@bentheredonethat-lx6nh What reason is there to believe you and your book over someone else and their book? Have you verified yours through prayer? Do you have faith that it is correct and true? Are the prophecies of your book coming true? Is your god a mysterious god that can't be fully understood? Is there history that backs up the authenticity of your book? Have you witnessed events that confirm your beliefs as true? Does the spirit of your god speak to you? You and everybody else. Belief is one thing, but there is no way to know which, if any, claims of knowledge of the supernatural are true.
My heart hurt and I cried much listening to these beautiful ladies share about their pain. You’re very brave to speak publicly about your experiences. Thank you for sharing. I understood all too well what they’ve been through. I had a violent stepfather who beat me and our Mother among other vile things. Im 70 years old and have been through therapy, depression etc. but by the Grace of God married a wonderful man and raised two beautiful children. I still have triggers that pop up at times but not often. There is hope and healing - if you are in an abusive situation please, please get help.
How dare you judge this woman when she herself was abused and under this maniac’s control. You have no idea of how she too was suffering - fear has a way of emotionally crippling a woman- don’t judge her
@@J54. You are ignorant. Brainwashing is real. Spiritual abuse. Preachers are the worst at brainwashing and spiritual abuse. I hope you educate yourself.
I don't think this woman was in a healthy state of mind. When someone is unwell mentally, they don't think clearly. She couldn't think clearly enough to use her own values to make decisions. Reality is, neither her or the guy should have had children. I'm really happy the mom finally got some clarity for herself and has a good relationship with at least one of her kids now.
I’m from Northwest Tennessee myself. My mama, sissy, and myself all survived DV. Your story is somewhat eerily familiar. In our case having to hide it from everyone to the point convening myself that my life was normal and then going on to marry a man who I loved dearly and he worked for my family daily the same cycle continued. Again hiding it from everyone until after 16yr it was enough. I couldn’t take it anymore. It had started with a push and a slap to choking me unconscious to the point I urinated on myself only to wake on the kitchen floor and not even be allowed to get up. The bad thing is that was a mild episode. I was scared but I left he said he would not let anyone else have me and not let me leave. I went to my grandfathers house. Less than 1/4 a mile a way. I was safe!! But the ultimate revenge he killed hisself just a couple of weeks later in our family business. A place I grew up in and went everyday. Four generations worked there. 50plus yrs of business and I didn’t let it stop me from going back. I still love our good times and miss that part of him. I had to forgive so I could move on. But without Gods grace and my sister and grandfather I would have never made it!! So if You read this you can make it!!! May God Bless You and I’m pulling for you too!!!
I called the cops on a street preacher because he was causing a distraction on a major intersection and the guy actually would follow women up the street to scream at them.
@@kynathomas4809 that isn’t a true Christian. The word Christian defined means little Christ. Christ would not do this. Jesus is concerned about us and loves us like no one else can but HE is a gentleman he doesn’t force. Religion doesn’t save anyway. Nothing nobody saves except the relationship with Jesus Christ and spirit set apart/holy spirit.
God bless you Gina and your children. Alesha congratulations to you on your graduation. Your compassion and understanding of the folks you plan on helping, can be seen in this video. You will be such a a blessing in their lives.🙏🏾❤
Ah, the No True Scotsman fallacy. Thing is if God is so all-seeing and all-knowing, he knew that this abuse was going to happen, allowed it to happen and then forgave the perpetrator over and over again. If I had such power I would never have allowed such horrors to happen. That’s the difference between me and your god.
@@ponyboy2984 What is going on with people's ability to think? The OP said "no Christian man, if truly saved". The OP was saying he is not a Christian. smh
Thank you Alesha and Gina for sharing your story. It will help many. I am so glad you have each other through all your healing. Your strong women beautiful women. Sending lots of peace and love.
They did even better. They described the sign and the cross he carries. Better than any name can give warning to. If you see him, you can walk the other way.
Judge a person by their behaviour, not by their words. Words are cheap and meaningless, they hold no weight. Unfortunately our society has still not learned this lesson as many "important" people like Politicians still get away with meaningless promises and bad behaviour.
I had a family member.That married a man of god.... He was the most evil person i've ever met... He made the devil look like an angel.. He has passed on.. I've learned to forgive the man, but I will never forget.
Most of them are evil - it works like this … Atheists are the most close to God and their soul is on its last life and is basically having its morals tested, they are born and live without the idea of heaven or hell or reward and punishment and their life is test if the live morally without the idea of being rewarded for it if they pass they get into heaven , if they don’t then they come back for another life until they learn , now on the flip those who live their live trying to appease God are sinners in a previous life their souls are bad and confused they dedicate their life to God but still abuse they think that god is more interested in the appeasement instead of how they treat others and this is why these people fear and hate satan so much too ultimately satan punishes evil so anyone that fears him is actually evil their souls got shown hell before they were reincarnated so they live with that fear in life … the more someone has their tongue up Gods ass the more corrupt their soul is and their actions show this
I apologize, but you have chosen the wrong diction for this man. A man of the true God does not do this! A man of God does righteous deeds, even when they are at home, because a man of God isn't made by his good deeds, he is made from a good heart. Only Jesus can transform a man's heart to do good, and this man... he was not saved. And even though men of God sin, they repent and do not continue in sin. This was not indeed a man of God, because of the extremity of his sin, and the fact that he continued and did not repent, and delighted in it. I promise you. This man is of the false god, the devil. Because a true man of God knows that the kingdom of God is within, it is doing good from the heart to God people on and off the platform, by His Spirit and the power of His supernatural blood He shed alone. That's not to say men of God don't still sin. Only Jesus was perfect, and no man on this earth will ever be, until the new earth. But when true men of God, who have been saved by Jesus' sacrifice, fall into a sin, they are desperately sorry. And they are not sins that are outrageously disgusting, either. No one who walks with the Lord regularly harbors oceans of perversity or murder or any of those terrible sins in their hearts. And if they do have a slight lapse in character and do happen to lust or hate, they are not okay until they change. God is long-suffering... But He is also seriously just. And His Spirit will not always strive with man. That's why there is the sentence of hell for sin. See, you can do the church thing, but be totally perverse and wicked on the inside. But a true man of God has the living Spirit of God in him, and even the thought of doing something of this nature would destroy his heart. All this to say, a man of God's life goal is to keep himself from these things, and by the Lord's grace, he DOES.
@@seeyouinthegarden I'm not a Christian (duh, obviously, given my username! :), but I absolutely agree with you nonetheless. Thank you for your honesty, insight, and enlightened perspective...I hope it provides food for thought for those who need it most. Many blessings and much love to you.
@@witchywoman4139 Hello. Thanks for your kind message! That kindness came from the Lord Jesus. Praise Him. I honestly hope you repent because witchcraft is trying to be god or get to God without God's prescribed ways, in your own way and works. It is not acceptable. He says only His Spirit can please Him. Do you think your witchcraft will bring you into a peaceable eternity? God forbid. He won't let man's darkness into His eternal sanctuary. There are testimonies out there of people seeking the truth and thinking they were a good witch only to see that it lead people to false hope and a Godless eternity. Witchcraft is done to make people powerful and prosperous in the here and now. Mankind doesn't need prosperity now, it needs to see that we are evil and headed to hell. But what Jesus did on the cross can save mankind from their perversity. One must accept it or deny, just in the same way one submits to the laws of witchcraft. And then, there is power unending, true and sacrificial love eternal, and freedom to be creative in an innocent way forever.
@@wesleyAlan9179She watched, she listened, just like I did, just like you did, and, she does know WTF she's talking about. Everyone has different experiences and thoughts so calm down Karen 👍
Thank you Mark for this interview. So sad what they went through. That male, cant call him a man, should have been put in jail, and got beaten every day with a board. Like he gave his poor child. When the mother said, she walked around on egg shells, i totally related to that and wonder if people who grew up in normal familys with no abuse in the house can understand how that feels. My dad use to hit our mother and he was 6ft 2, and 240 pounds. He punched my mom with those great big fists. I remember from 3 yrs old, laying in bed knots in my stomach, waiting for him to come home and was he going to punch our mom out tonight. My two brothers 4 and 5 yrs older then me, where laying awake in their rooms afraid of the same thing. It was the 1950s and there was no where for women to go. One morning after she got up and cooked him a nice breakfast at 5 am, he punced her out and shut both her eyes. We called the police. We were crying and so upset. The police said there is nothing we can do to him unless we ses him hit her. At least today, if she had that hapoen they will lock them up for punching women like that. My dad did not beat us kids. He stopped hitting my mother when my brothers became teens and were as big as him. To any female who reads my note, the first time your man, hits you, make it his last. Men who respect women never put their hands on a woman. If they do it once, they will do it again. Dont give them that chance. Best wishs to the mom and daughter who shared their story. God bless you both.
Thank you to these two courageous survivors for speaking about the horrific abuse that they suffered. I have worked in the criminal justice system for many years. I am frequently disappointed to see the lack of understanding that still exists in the court system regarding domestic violence. Judges need to start holding DV offenders accountable and keep them off the streets as long as possible-unless the offender goes through significant, comprehensive therapy. Repeat offenders should be harshly punished.
Grasping your daughters hand while slowly, painfully blinking all whilst taking in the recounts of her telling tales of horrific violence against her and her sisters. Yet you were right there. You saw it, heard it, smelled it.. and you didn't shed a tear. You failed miserably to protect your children. Domestic violence shelters have been around for over 50 years in every state. You failed to discover options via escape. Own that. It's not to late to have a positive impact from here on. Encourage them, and seek counseling yourself.
First of all, if he was abusing the children, what are the odds that he wasn’t abusing her as well? Yes, she should have protected her children. AND, it’s sometimes difficult to protect others when you can’t even protect yourself. Add on top of that that she was probably being told by everyone in her sphere that her role is to honor and obey her husband. She would be told that he is the leader of the house and her job is to submit to his will.If she reached out to these people for help, they would have told her SHE was the one in the wrong. Only a monster wants to hurt their children or see them hurt and I don’t believe this woman is a monster, so maybe grace would be better than judgement in this case.
@kare8502 never an excuse to let a man get aroused beating your child. She's not evil, but hopefully she does take ownership of allowing this to continue so long
An out of control sexual sadist with an obsessive addiction to rage, and absolutely no one could pick up on this in the wider community, even if they did move a lot. It’s amazing how skillfully these types of individuals can hide who they are. The youngest one is lucky to be alive. Highest respect and much love to the mother and daughter. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Forgiveness is not a gift to a victimizer. It’s a freedom from carrying an irreparable burden! Not forgiving takes a lot of wasted emotion. It is not self protection to not forgive. Forgiveness is not reconciliation. I don’t know how you put in 25 years I’m glad you finally got out. All the best to you and your children. The best is yet to come.
Gina & Alesha, thank you for sharing another horrific story. Alesha, congratulations! I send you both God's best! Katy *I will deliver you out of the hand of the wicked and redeem you from the grasp of the ruthless. Jeremiah 15:21
My uncle told me never marry a religious leader, police or a politician. They are all one in the same. I didn’t understand that until I grew up. I am a devout Christian but I understand his meaning. And it’s any religious leader because any religious leader carries power, respect and authority. Of course there are good ones but the point is these 3 professions often attract power hungry people.

Courageous!!! Mama's getting it done,,daughters getting it done, together and new Gen LISTEN,,,Lovingly !!! Learned, and kept what they loved pure!!! SHEROES!!!
Abuse can really do damage to your mental health. You end your not trusting yourself and it is hard to believe what is happening. You simply can’t think straight. I have been through abuse and it did a number on me. My ex was not directly abusive to my kids … if he had been, I believe I would have called the police… this woman was groomed and brainwashed… maybe she saw this kind of abuse growing up - to some degree. I was a part of a church for a while that some of the leadership believed that you could NOT get a divorce for domestic abuse … only adultery so, that woman may have been told that as well.
@@tinam761 I hope you are now in a better place today and are healing. Thank you for sharing in your comment and about that leadership you mentioned. Unfortunately, the Bible itself isn't read and devoured as it should be to be able to truly decipher what "leadership" tells it's sheep. Leadership isn't even in the Bible, and is all just made up as time went on. Our leadership is the God of the Bible, God the Father, and he sent Jesus to show us how to live and when he departed he sent the Holy Spirit. These are our leaderships and that's it. We are to congregate, but whatever is in the Bible, that's the way it goes and not leadership. It looks like so many people just listen to other sinners around us whether friends or "leadership" and they are no more righteous than we. Be blessed in your future. I hope you are able these days to find the realness behind God's word and that alone to be rightfully divided for one scripture or two alone never works, but many scriptures together confirm.
Keep telling your story - the majority have no idea of narcissistic abuse and coercive control. You are both strong amazing women and will help future generations by your experience and strength to carry on.
Abusive people pick naiive, kind and forgiving people. They know who they are able to control and abuse without them going to the police. Thankfully, Gina finally smartened up and got out.
I am shocked! I knew them briefly. Gina is the sweetest lady. I told her i was alone an had no one to talk to. She told me i always have someone that listens, and that is God. When someone has you in a controlled relationship things are far different then a normal relationship. If you haven't been in a relationship that someone controlled you, you wont understand.
Just left my abuser...have been sheltered so much an no job in 9 years nobody will hire me I've reached out to my advocate who makes me feel like my 3 sons an I are a burden. But please don't tell where survivors live esp when abuser is not incarcerated
I saw a guy today on the highway headed to El Paso TX with a sign that read “Jesus Saves”. He was all alone. Nothing around. Just him and his sign. I immediately thought it may be the man they’re talking about.
I think Preacher was in the RV with his cop captain friend messing around and got caught, that's why he reacted so aggressively towards his family to distract with shock and awe.
My father used to beat me exactly how this woman described how her sister was beat. I am 50 years old now and that stuff does not go away. It says if it happened yesterday. My father is still alive today he is 74 now and he wonders why. I no longer speak to him.
Very interesting interview. These ladies have a clear understanding of what scripture teaches on several interrelated topics surrounding the family. Well done, Ladies. Well done, Mark. 👏
So so sorry to hear you beautiful ladies had to go through this horrendous abuse. That man is a demon. He was feeding on sweet angles. Where is this man? I hope he is in prison with his own kind. ❤❤
@@gregbrown-sz2vl oh , you were never mentioned in the interview! I would love to hear your story. I’m happy that you are doing well. I too was in an awful situation involving a church. Ni abuse from my family. He wasn’t a preacher
Mark, could you please update us?? These two women just outed this man and now he could see this video and find out where they are living. In March of last year, an article was published about him returning to Princeton, KY- not far from where they are located. I’m terrified these women could be on the news soon and not for a good reason. I’m a fan of yours but if he decides to take action and has their locations from this video their blood is partly on you. Please do something. Make sure they are protected.
Men such as these isolate their victims and keep them financially dependent. They will sabotage any job or opportunity their victim might accomplish. They also use getting their victims pregnant and dependent on them. In this case he also used her great faith in God and her conviction of never divorcing as a weapon to keep her in subjugation to him. Once she was able to work, behind his back and against his wishes, she was able to save enough to get out of the situation. Men such as these will also completely control all the money the wife might make that could help them to escape. Safe havens for women and their children to escape to are few and far between. Under funded. The most dangerous time for someone living with DV is when they are trying to get out. That's when in most cases the abuser will murder them deliberately. Their need to control is so great that they will not accept that their favorite target for their violence might get away from them.
"Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain. But a godly woman is worthy of praise" Yep, men like this charm, lie and manipulate everyone around them. I was married to such a man as this for 5 years. He would assault me and then run to whoever was important in our lives and tell them a great big lie. Then they would look at me like I was the problem. It was awful. Once I divorced him, I never looked back, never regretted divorcing him at all. And knew full well that God loved me too much to allow me to stay under and in the hands of a violent and agressive man.
As Alesha stated using God to justify the horrendous things you are doing is blasphemous and is taking the Lords name in vain. This is a special kind of evil - one that I cannot wrap my head around. So happy that these wonderful ladies are moving forward and living their lives free of this monster. And congratulations on your maters degree Alesha! Best wishes to you both ❤
Anybody who commits abuse, whether it be sexual mental or physical or all three cannot and should not be called people of God, they are not worthy to speak his name
This has me shook on a Sunday afternoon the amount of abuse this man put this family through is crazy. That divorce was a sign of rejection. I'm surprised he didn't try to come for her in a violent way.
You gals are such good listeners, and let the other talk without interrupting which is very rare. Im sure Probably from the abuse. Wish he didn't ask where you lived so that lying monster wouldn't find out!
She, the daughter, said "I still love God". Think about that statement. It's an admission that even though you weren't there to help and protect us, god, I still love you. Then we question why she, mom, stayed with him for 24 years?
Yet ANOTHER reason why, when asked the question if they'd rather run into a man in the woods or a bear, they choose the bear...because they say that the worst a bear could do is kill them.

My heart goes out to the mother and the daughter and of course the siblings that are not present. How many people do we know hide behind religion. I am so glad. The mother was finally able to break free both out of mentally and physically abusive marriage. I was in a verbally abusive marriage, which was going to turn physical and it is extremely hard to break free. I was in it almost 20 years.
I'm glad you broke free and I hope you are now surrounded by people who value you 💮🙏🏼
You are a survivor now!
I was in an abusive relationship for almost 15 years both verbally and physical abuse 24/7 ..everything was my fault..nothing ever was good enough..I was walking on eggshells constantly..no sleep at night because he was standing next to my bed and screaming for hours how horrible I am as a person ..with lots of prayers and gods help I am free after so many years 🙏🏼🎊🎊🎊
Some are wolves in sheeps clothing.
Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! The King James Bible warns about falsely professing "Christians" and ministers of Satan. There're many devils preaching in America's pulpits who are NOT born-again bondservants of Jesus Christ.
U betcha! My own brother is one! Preacher, liar, money hungry, embezzling over $250K in my brothers and I inheritance money and goes right beck to scream JESUS SAVES O RABABABA CHAKAKANNA A
MANY not just some. The greed and power takes over.
Yes. some are. Just like the Bible predicted.
@@user-ch4ex3yy4l Yep..."ministers of Satan" exactly as predicted.
Alesha is so well spoken. This has to be a terribly difficult story to tell and she does it so well. God bless you.
Such a compelling interview with Gina and Alesha. It's fascinating to hear their perspectives and experiences as the family of a street preacher in Western Tennessee. Their strength and resilience really shine through. Thanks for sharing their story, Mark .
This monster was nothing but a Savage sociopath
He needs to meet face to face with a male savage sociopath and being that same energy he brings to little girls
I COME FROM A SOUTHERN FAMILY....MY MOTHER ALSO WENT THREW THE SAME ABUSE, 50YRS....SHE HAD NO PLACE TO RUN BACK THEN. SHE DIED 3 WEEKS AFTER THERE 50TH wedding anniversary. AND MY FATHER LIVED ANOTHER 9YRS ALL ALONE AND WE NEVER SPOKE AGAIN. HE IS BURNING IN HELL AS WE SPEAK. KARMA A BITCH.
Reading your comment I am so sorry to hear your mother went through that. I think especially in times gone by society was different, men earned, ruled and what they said went leaving many women in hopeless situations. I hope you are in a happy place with people who value you and you can remember your mother with fondness.
P.S I love what you say about Karma. Bought a big smile to my face!
Well, your mother is resting in peace now 🕊️
I hope you are too ❣️
@@StevenStone-x5f Well, if you believe that I guess one day you will find out. We all have a Spirit, and that Spirit lives on once our body gives up.
@bentheredonethat-lx6nh be careful because free speech. 😊
@@bentheredonethat-lx6nh What reason is there to believe you and your book over someone else and their book? Have you verified yours through prayer? Do you have faith that it is correct and true? Are the prophecies of your book coming true? Is your god a mysterious god that can't be fully understood? Is there history that backs up the authenticity of your book? Have you witnessed events that confirm your beliefs as true? Does the spirit of your god speak to you?
You and everybody else.
Belief is one thing, but there is no way to know which, if any, claims of knowledge of the supernatural are true.
My heart hurt and I cried much listening to these beautiful ladies share about their pain. You’re very brave to speak publicly about your experiences. Thank you for sharing. I understood all too well what they’ve been through. I had a violent stepfather who beat me and our Mother among other vile things. Im 70 years old and have been through therapy, depression etc. but by the Grace of God married a wonderful man and raised two beautiful children. I still have triggers that pop up at times but not often. There is hope and healing - if you are in an abusive situation please, please get help.
How can you stand by and let a grown man abuse your children?
Yes!!!!
How dare you judge this woman when she herself was abused and under this maniac’s control. You have no idea of how she too was suffering - fear has a way of emotionally crippling a woman- don’t judge her
@@J54. You are ignorant. Brainwashing is real. Spiritual abuse. Preachers are the worst at brainwashing and spiritual abuse. I hope you educate yourself.
My thoughts exactly!! Always protect your children, no matter what!!
I don't think this woman was in a healthy state of mind. When someone is unwell mentally, they don't think clearly. She couldn't think clearly enough to use her own values to make decisions. Reality is, neither her or the guy should have had children. I'm really happy the mom finally got some clarity for herself and has a good relationship with at least one of her kids now.
Thank you ladies. Thankfully you escaped!!! 🍀
That was a beautiful still picture of them. It's something about their smiles that gives me relief. One of your best.
So sad i wish you and your children the best of futures. Congratulations on your graduation ❤❤
I’m from Northwest Tennessee myself. My mama, sissy, and myself all survived DV. Your story is somewhat eerily familiar. In our case having to hide it from everyone to the point convening myself that my life was normal and then going on to marry a man who I loved dearly and he worked for my family daily the same cycle continued. Again hiding it from everyone until after 16yr it was enough. I couldn’t take it anymore. It had started with a push and a slap to choking me unconscious to the point I urinated on myself only to wake on the kitchen floor and not even be allowed to get up. The bad thing is that was a mild episode. I was scared but I left he said he would not let anyone else have me and not let me leave. I went to my grandfathers house. Less than 1/4 a mile a way. I was safe!! But the ultimate revenge he killed hisself just a couple of weeks later in our family business. A place I grew up in and went everyday. Four generations worked there. 50plus yrs of business and I didn’t let it stop me from going back. I still love our good times and miss that part of him. I had to forgive so I could move on. But without Gods grace and my sister and grandfather I would have never made it!! So if You read this you can make it!!! May God Bless You and I’m pulling for you too!!!
How do you avoid a street preacher?
You keep on walking.
Thanks to that amazing tip, I have avoided many in my life. You are welcome everyone.
What a terrible person this guy was. Im glad yall are away from this narcissist.
Sadist: a person who derives pleasure, especially sexual gratification, from inflicting pain or humiliation on others.
1st red flag
you met him in the street.....should've kept on walking......
when she found out he was married she should have left then and all this things would have never happen to them
@@b4322558that's right
She knew him in her youth and bought his story. Could happen to any one of us.
I called the cops on a street preacher because he was causing a distraction on a major intersection and the guy actually would follow women up the street to scream at them.
😲 THAT'S CRAZY!!!! He was literally harassing them with religion.
@@kynathomas4809 that isn’t a true Christian. The word Christian defined means little Christ. Christ would not do this. Jesus is concerned about us and loves us like no one else can but HE is a gentleman he doesn’t force. Religion doesn’t save anyway. Nothing nobody saves except the relationship with Jesus Christ and spirit set apart/holy spirit.
God bless you Gina and your children.
Alesha congratulations to you on your graduation. Your compassion and understanding of the folks you plan on helping, can be seen in this video. You will be such a a blessing in their lives.🙏🏾❤
No Christian man, if truly saved, would ever treat his wife and family like this.
How can you say that when you've just watched this video? Do you think she's lying? 😮
@@ponyboy2984 No, but he was!
I wonder what he told her about the kids from the other families, and why he didn't support or see them.
Ah, the No True Scotsman fallacy. Thing is if God is so all-seeing and all-knowing, he knew that this abuse was going to happen, allowed it to happen and then forgave the perpetrator over and over again.
If I had such power I would never have allowed such horrors to happen. That’s the difference between me and your god.
@@ponyboy2984 What is going on with people's ability to think? The OP said "no Christian man, if truly saved". The OP was saying he is not a Christian. smh

The things that go on behind closed doors to people you think live wholesome lives. I love that she got the strength and left this jerk.
Judge a person by their behaviour, not by their words. Words are cheap and meaningless, they hold no weight. Unfortunately our society has still not learned this lesson as many "important" people like Politicians still get away with meaningless promises and bad behaviour.
Amen!
I had a family member.That married a man of god.... He was the most evil person i've ever met... He made the devil look like an angel.. He has passed on.. I've learned to forgive the man, but I will never forget.
Most of them are evil - it works like this … Atheists are the most close to God and their soul is on its last life and is basically having its morals tested, they are born and live without the idea of heaven or hell or reward and punishment and their life is test if the live morally without the idea of being rewarded for it if they pass they get into heaven , if they don’t then they come back for another life until they learn , now on the flip those who live their live trying to appease God are sinners in a previous life their souls are bad and confused they dedicate their life to God but still abuse they think that god is more interested in the appeasement instead of how they treat others and this is why these people fear and hate satan so much too ultimately satan punishes evil so anyone that fears him is actually evil their souls got shown hell before they were reincarnated so they live with that fear in life … the more someone has their tongue up Gods ass the more corrupt their soul is and their actions show this
I apologize, but you have chosen the wrong diction for this man. A man of the true God does not do this! A man of God does righteous deeds, even when they are at home, because a man of God isn't made by his good deeds, he is made from a good heart. Only Jesus can transform a man's heart to do good, and this man... he was not saved. And even though men of God sin, they repent and do not continue in sin. This was not indeed a man of God, because of the extremity of his sin, and the fact that he continued and did not repent, and delighted in it. I promise you. This man is of the false god, the devil. Because a true man of God knows that the kingdom of God is within, it is doing good from the heart to God people on and off the platform, by His Spirit and the power of His supernatural blood He shed alone.
That's not to say men of God don't still sin. Only Jesus was perfect, and no man on this earth will ever be, until the new earth. But when true men of God, who have been saved by Jesus' sacrifice, fall into a sin, they are desperately sorry. And they are not sins that are outrageously disgusting, either. No one who walks with the Lord regularly harbors oceans of perversity or murder or any of those terrible sins in their hearts. And if they do have a slight lapse in character and do happen to lust or hate, they are not okay until they change. God is long-suffering... But He is also seriously just. And His Spirit will not always strive with man. That's why there is the sentence of hell for sin.
See, you can do the church thing, but be totally perverse and wicked on the inside. But a true man of God has the living Spirit of God in him, and even the thought of doing something of this nature would destroy his heart. All this to say, a man of God's life goal is to keep himself from these things, and by the Lord's grace, he DOES.
@@seeyouinthegarden I'm not a Christian (duh, obviously, given my username! :), but I absolutely agree with you nonetheless. Thank you for your honesty, insight, and enlightened perspective...I hope it provides food for thought for those who need it most. Many blessings and much love to you.
@@witchywoman4139 Hello. Thanks for your kind message! That kindness came from the Lord Jesus. Praise Him. I honestly hope you repent because witchcraft is trying to be god or get to God without God's prescribed ways, in your own way and works. It is not acceptable. He says only His Spirit can please Him. Do you think your witchcraft will bring you into a peaceable eternity? God forbid. He won't let man's darkness into His eternal sanctuary. There are testimonies out there of people seeking the truth and thinking they were a good witch only to see that it lead people to false hope and a Godless eternity. Witchcraft is done to make people powerful and prosperous in the here and now. Mankind doesn't need prosperity now, it needs to see that we are evil and headed to hell. But what Jesus did on the cross can save mankind from their perversity. One must accept it or deny, just in the same way one submits to the laws of witchcraft. And then, there is power unending, true and sacrificial love eternal, and freedom to be creative in an innocent way forever.
I can’t keep watching this. When the mother blatantly knows what is going on it’s disturbing. She is not a victim but an accomplice.

Apparently You have never been involved in an abusive relationship

So sorry your family had to go through this abuse ❤️ God and good friends blessings for the rest of your life!
Thank you Mark for this interview. So sad what they went through. That male, cant call him a man, should have been put in jail, and got beaten every day with a board. Like he gave his poor child. When the mother said, she walked around on egg shells, i totally related to that and wonder if people who grew up in normal familys with no abuse in the house can understand how that feels. My dad use to hit our mother and he was 6ft 2, and 240 pounds. He punched my mom with those great big fists. I remember from 3 yrs old, laying in bed knots in my stomach, waiting for him to come home and was he going to punch our mom out tonight. My two brothers 4 and 5 yrs older then me, where laying awake in their rooms afraid of the same thing. It was the 1950s and there was no where for women to go. One morning after she got up and cooked him a nice breakfast at 5 am, he punced her out and shut both her eyes. We called the police. We were crying and so upset. The police said there is nothing we can do to him unless we ses him hit her. At least today, if she had that hapoen they will lock them up for punching women like that. My dad did not beat us kids. He stopped hitting my mother when my brothers became teens and were as big as him. To any female who reads my note, the first time your man, hits you, make it his last. Men who respect women never put their hands on a woman. If they do it once, they will do it again. Dont give them that chance. Best wishs to the mom and daughter who shared their story. God bless you both.

Thank you mark I hope you are doing well thank you for all you do to help people share their stories 😊❤
Thank you ladies for sharing your story. I believe there is a lot of religious abuse going on. Happy you were able to get away from the man.
Thank you to these two courageous survivors for speaking about the horrific abuse that they suffered. I have worked in the criminal justice system for many years. I am frequently disappointed to see the lack of understanding that still exists in the court system regarding domestic violence. Judges need to start holding DV offenders accountable and keep them off the streets as long as possible-unless the offender goes through significant, comprehensive therapy. Repeat offenders should be harshly punished.
MY HEART GOES OUT TO BOTH OF YOU, PEOPLE FAIL US BUT THE LORD NEVER WILL. BE KIND TO YOURSELF, AND KNOW YOU ARE PRECIOUS AND LOVED
Grasping your daughters hand while slowly, painfully blinking all whilst taking in the recounts of her telling tales of horrific violence against her and her sisters.
Yet you were right there. You saw it, heard it, smelled it.. and you didn't shed a tear.
You failed miserably to protect your children.
Domestic violence shelters have been around for over 50 years in every state.
You failed to discover options via escape.
Own that.
It's not to late to have a positive impact from here on.
Encourage them, and seek counseling yourself.
I struggle with this too, I find it hard to not judge her. But fear and god knows what else kept her there.
First of all, if he was abusing the children, what are the odds that he wasn’t abusing her as well? Yes, she should have protected her children. AND, it’s sometimes difficult to protect others when you can’t even protect yourself. Add on top of that that she was probably being told by everyone in her sphere that her role is to honor and obey her husband. She would be told that he is the leader of the house and her job is to submit to his will.If she reached out to these people for help, they would have told her SHE was the one in the wrong. Only a monster wants to hurt their children or see them hurt and I don’t believe this woman is a monster, so maybe grace would be better than judgement in this case.
Disassociation is a trauma and survival response. Please don’t judge what you don’t know.
You own he fact that you are a person who has no empathy for other humans and are truly judgmental.
@kare8502 never an excuse to let a man get aroused beating your child. She's not evil, but hopefully she does take ownership of allowing this to continue so long
An out of control sexual sadist with an obsessive addiction to rage, and absolutely no one could pick up on this in the wider community, even if they did move a lot.
It’s amazing how skillfully these types of individuals can hide who they are. The youngest one is lucky to be alive.
Highest respect and much love to the mother and daughter.

Forgiveness is not a gift to a victimizer. It’s a freedom from carrying an irreparable burden!
Not forgiving takes a lot of wasted emotion. It is not self protection to not forgive. Forgiveness is not reconciliation.
I don’t know how you put in 25 years I’m glad you finally got out.
All the best to you and your children. The best is yet to come.

I agree😔
Haggard, Falwell, Copeland, et al. They are all in-the-closet.
My uncle told me never marry a religious leader, police or a politician. They are all one in the same. I didn’t understand that until I grew up. I am a devout Christian but I understand his meaning. And it’s any religious leader because any religious leader carries power, respect and authority. Of course there are good ones but the point is these 3 professions often attract power hungry people.

“She knew what was going on but didn’t say anything “……wow
That is what religion does to you.
Denial
Abuse can really do damage to your mental health. You end your not trusting yourself and it is hard to believe what is happening. You simply can’t think straight.
I have been through abuse and it did a number on me. My ex was not directly abusive to my kids … if he had been, I believe I would have called the police… this woman was groomed and brainwashed… maybe she saw this kind of abuse growing up - to some degree.
I was a part of a church for a while that some of the leadership believed that you could NOT get a divorce for domestic abuse … only adultery so, that woman may have been told that as well.
@@tinam761 I hope you are now in a better place today and are healing. Thank you for sharing in your comment and about that leadership you mentioned. Unfortunately, the Bible itself isn't read and devoured as it should be to be able to truly decipher what "leadership" tells it's sheep. Leadership isn't even in the Bible, and is all just made up as time went on. Our leadership is the God of the Bible, God the Father, and he sent Jesus to show us how to live and when he departed he sent the Holy Spirit. These are our leaderships and that's it. We are to congregate, but whatever is in the Bible, that's the way it goes and not leadership. It looks like so many people just listen to other sinners around us whether friends or "leadership" and they are no more righteous than we. Be blessed in your future. I hope you are able these days to find the realness behind God's word and that alone to be rightfully divided for one scripture or two alone never works, but many scriptures together confirm.
Exactly why I don’t like religion ! Best of luck to you two lovely ladies!
Two very strong women. I hope life continues to get better for you both.
Keep telling your story - the majority have no idea of narcissistic abuse and coercive control. You are both strong amazing women and will help future generations by your experience and strength to carry on.
The most evil things happen “under the name of God”. This is heart breaking but not all surprising.
Abusive people pick naiive, kind and forgiving people. They know who they are able to control and abuse without them going to the police. Thankfully, Gina finally smartened up and got out.
The beating scenario made me cry😢
Special women that have a clearly strong bond due to the abuse they endured. Wishing you both strength and healing x
Love Gina and aleshas are now speaking out on RUclips!
I am shocked! I knew them briefly. Gina is the sweetest lady. I told her i was alone an had no one to talk to. She told me i always have someone that listens, and that is God. When someone has you in a controlled relationship things are far different then a normal relationship. If you haven't been in a relationship that someone controlled you, you wont understand.
I wish this was longer😢
Just left my abuser...have been sheltered so much an no job in 9 years nobody will hire me I've reached out to my advocate who makes me feel like my 3 sons an I are a burden. But please don't tell where survivors live esp when abuser is not incarcerated
I saw a guy today on the highway headed to El Paso TX with a sign that read “Jesus Saves”. He was all alone. Nothing around. Just him and his sign. I immediately thought it may be the man they’re talking about.

What a story. What a terrible thing to live through. May God keep them and protect them always.
My father used to beat me exactly how this woman described how her sister was beat. I am 50 years old now and that stuff does not go away. It says if it happened yesterday. My father is still alive today he is 74 now and he wonders why. I no longer speak to him.
That’s some real PTSD type stuff. I hope you’re doing well and living a better life now.
Reminds me of the book, The Poisonwood Bible. Wild story.
Sick man. Disgusting what he did to them
Where was the mother wildest animal was beating her child???
Have some compassion and educate yourself on domestic violence survivors.
Religion as a weapon. I wish churches would give these women a platform to educate others in similar situations.
These women have endured so much. I know they inspire other women being abused that they can get help to become free.
Very interesting interview. These ladies have a clear understanding of what scripture teaches on several interrelated topics surrounding the family. Well done, Ladies. Well done, Mark. 👏

Mark, could you please update us?? These two women just outed this man and now he could see this video and find out where they are living. In March of last year, an article was published about him returning to Princeton, KY- not far from where they are located. I’m terrified these women could be on the news soon and not for a good reason. I’m a fan of yours but if he decides to take action and has their locations from this video their blood is partly on you. Please do something. Make sure they are protected.
The mom is just as guiltily!! Mom subjected her children to this monster for 24 years!!
Men such as these isolate their victims and keep them financially dependent. They will sabotage any job or opportunity their victim might accomplish. They also use getting their victims pregnant and dependent on them. In this case he also used her great faith in God and her conviction of never divorcing as a weapon to keep her in subjugation to him. Once she was able to work, behind his back and against his wishes, she was able to save enough to get out of the situation. Men such as these will also completely control all the money the wife might make that could help them to escape.
Safe havens for women and their children to escape to are few and far between. Under funded. The most dangerous time for someone living with DV is when they are trying to get out. That's when in most cases the abuser will murder them deliberately. Their need to control is so great that they will not accept that their favorite target for their violence might get away from them.
Let's not blame the abused but rather the abuser
Two beautiful strong women. Thanks for sharing your stories.
I am so thankful that we don't have street "preachers" in my country!
Duane Lyon The street preacher! That’s who this man is, very violent but acts charming
"Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain. But a godly woman is worthy of praise" Yep, men like this charm, lie and manipulate everyone around them. I was married to such a man as this for 5 years. He would assault me and then run to whoever was important in our lives and tell them a great big lie. Then they would look at me like I was the problem. It was awful. Once I divorced him, I never looked back, never regretted divorcing him at all. And knew full well that God loved me too much to allow me to stay under and in the hands of a violent and agressive man.
People who stood by and didn't say anything is just as guilty as the liars
As Alesha stated using God to justify the horrendous things you are doing is blasphemous and is taking the Lords name in vain. This is a special kind of evil - one that I cannot wrap my head around. So happy that these wonderful ladies are moving forward and living their lives free of this monster. And congratulations on your maters degree Alesha! Best wishes to you both ❤
Try to get your back child support when he files for social security. I'm so sorry to hear what you all went through. God bless you!
Anybody who commits abuse, whether it be sexual mental or physical or all three cannot and should not be called people of God, they are not worthy to speak his name
Why would you broadcast their location like that?! Wish you hadn't asked where they live.
I agree. Such a dumb thing to do. Wtf.
This has me shook on a Sunday afternoon the amount of abuse this man put this family through is crazy. That divorce was a sign of rejection. I'm surprised he didn't try to come for her in a violent way.
You gals are such good listeners, and let the other talk without interrupting which is very rare. Im sure Probably from the abuse.
Wish he didn't ask where you lived so that lying monster wouldn't find out!
She, the daughter, said "I still love God". Think about that statement. It's an admission that even though you weren't there to help and protect us, god, I still love you. Then we question why she, mom, stayed with him for 24 years?
Well, you missed the point. If indigenous peoples speak of The Creator, and have faced evil, does that mean The Creator doesn't exist?
“Man will never be free until the last king is strangled with the entrails of the last priest.” -Denis Diderot
Yet ANOTHER reason why, when asked the question if they'd rather run into a man in the woods or a bear, they choose the bear...because they say that the worst a bear could do is kill them.
Stupidest analogy ever
