Summary
In this powerful episode of the Preacher Boys Podcast, I sit down with Beth White, a survivor of a harrowing marriage defined by abuse, gaslighting, and spiritual manipulation. Beth courageously opens up about her ex-husband Justin White's shocking transformation after an ayahuasca trip, where he claimed he was no longer alive but instead inhabited by higher beings.
Beth says that, at times, Justin said he was God; other times, he denied God's existence entirely. He alternated between claiming to be Jesus, an angel of light, or something else altogether. This dangerous delusion culminated in a horrifying act: Justin drugged Beth and their young children in an attempt to bring them into his twisted spiritual visions.
Today, Justin calls himself "Justin Love" and claims to be a spiritual healer.
Beth shares the dark truth about their marriage and the abuse she endured in this gripping conversation. Her bravery in recounting these events sheds light on the devastating impact of spiritual abuse and manipulation.
This episode also revisits prior coverage of Fellowship Baptist Church in Michigan, including interviews with victims and former members, shedding light on a disturbing culture of abuse, cover-ups, and silencing.✖️✖️✖️

| 1:17.5 | he was God, sometimes God wasn't real, sometimes he was Jesus, sometimes he was this angel of |
| 1:21.8 | lights. He was just always something different. The horrifying conclusion of this story was that |
