An ATI Education, Chapter 3: Thou Shalt Not Trap the Eye
![](https://www.recoveringgrace.org/media/blue-eye-1424183-1280x960-160x120.jpg)
“Ye are the light of the world; a city that is set on a hill cannot be hid.” According to Bill Gothard, this verse clearly directs women to avoid clothing with “eye traps” that might attract a man’s lustful attention. As a quick recap, my previous articles explained: 1. Bill Gothard set himself up as the final authority […]
The Brilliance of Bill Gothard
![](https://www.recoveringgrace.org/media/orchestra1-160x120.jpg)
Bill Gothard created a cult, and he did a fine job of it. He didn’t create a commune that physically isolated his followers from the rest of the world. He didn’t lead weird sessions with chanting and candles. He didn’t even come up with strange names for his teachings. He conducted his cult in the […]
The Truth About God’s Justice
![](https://www.recoveringgrace.org/media/RG-Hands-160x120.jpg)
I grew up afraid of God’s justice. Though my parents were well-balanced in meting out mercy and discipline (very well-balanced considering we went to a Gothardite church), I always imagined God coming down from heaven with a sword of justice in hand, ready to punish all of us for our sins. He had just enough […]
Resurrection Rhythms
![](https://www.recoveringgrace.org/media/Easter-tomb-160x120.jpg)
As Easter approaches with its commercialization of eggs and bunnies, the irony of new life is not lost upon those whose thoughts turn towards the events of Holy Week. In the first century a new faith came on the scene of the pagan Greco Roman world that literally turned that culture on its head. Its […]

The Dangers of Analogies Donald Simanek, physics professor at Lock Haven University, wrote and an excellent article on the dangers of analogies (click here to read). His perspective is from the field of physics, in which there are many concepts that are in the abstract and […]
ATI: Designed Around a False Education “Principle” (Part 1)
![](https://www.recoveringgrace.org/media/apple-orange-160x120.jpg)
by Myron Horst The Advanced Training Institute (ATI) curriculum was promoted and sold to pastors and homeschool parents as the best homeschool curriculum in the world. Instead of being the best, it has failed horribly in many ways. The ATI curriculum was produced by Bill Gothard and his Institute in Basic Life Principles (IBLP) and […]
Manipulation by Humiliation
![](https://www.recoveringgrace.org/media/girl-face-covered-160x120.jpg)
Every once in a while a light shines out revealing the truth of our surroundings. Sometimes it only lasts a moment, but we gain insights that change our understanding of the world. Suddenly, the explanation we have been looking for explodes like a flash of lightning. For several years we observed a phenomenon we struggled […]
