Brisbane Christian Fellowship

-

From the outside it looks like any other Christian church, but former members claim the Brisbane Christian Fellowship has been tearing families apart for years.

Former follower Helen Pomery says church elders preach sacrifice and obedience. “I had to submit and be obedient to the church elders and I had to cut off my daughter,” she revealed in an interview in 2010.

Followers are taught that a woman’s body is her husband’s body, meaning he has the right to demand it whenever he chooses. And despite many ex-female members claiming they lived a life of servitude and

were forced to submit and be obedient to their husbands, the sect still has a significan­t following worldwide.
