Counting On Alum Jinger Duggar Slams Bill Gothard – Derick Dillard Approves

Counting On alum Jinger Vuolo is very busy promoting her book, “Becoming Free Indeed.” In it, she slammed Bill Gothard from the Institute in Basic Life Principles (IBLP.) This week, she shared some lines from the book on Instagram. Her hard-hitting extract got the approval of Derick Dillard when he liked the post.

Counting On Fans Started Slapping at Jinger Duggar

Before her new book, “Becoming Free Indeed” even went on pre-order, TLC trolls slapped at Jinger. However, she explained that her book would reveal why she started questioning her religious upbringing. While she remains religious, she changed from living the way that Gothard insisted was the only way. Actually, it already seems as if the book will do well. Even mainstream media started talking about it.

Counting On fans suspected for years, that Jeremy Vuolo and his father-in-law, Jim Bob Duggar don’t get along. That could relate to the fact that they belong to different Christian churches. Actually, Ben and Jessa Seewald also opted for a different church than Jim Bob. So, when fans saw that Jinger slammed the leader of the church that Jim Bob admires, they wondered if he’d disown his daughter.  But there seems to be some support from Jill and Derick Dillard as well as Jessa and Joy-Anna Forsyth

Counting On Alum Jinger Hits At Jim Gothard

On January 27, just four days ahead of the launch of “Becoming Free Indeed,” Jinger shared an extract from the book. On a card she wrote, “True righteous living comes from a heart that has been transformed. But Gothard missed this. And the consequences were devastating.” Next, she wrote a long caption and cited page 175 from her book.

The Counting On alum elaborated about Bill Gothard, saying, “he told us what clothes we had to wear, what our homes had to look like, and how long our hair needed to be.” Then she pointed out that “he gave us lists for how to earn God’s favor financially, physically, and relationally. He had the keys to success in the kingdom of God. Or so he thought. “

Calling Out The IBLP

Counting On fans also saw that Jinger Duggar Vuolo slammed Bill Giothard. She wrote, “But he couldn’t tell us how to truly live a life that honored God because man-made principles are a cheap substitute for true religion.”

In the comments section of the post, one follower, Without A Crystal Ball said, “It is beyond refreshing to see Gothard called out in such a methodical way. It is refreshing to see you acknowledge the error of the teachings in such a public way. I hope this will shake up the remaining loyalists and help wake up those trapped inside.”

Lots of other comments arrived. But, Derick Dillard didn’t need to say anything. Just liking the post was enough for his many fans.
