It's actually pretty interesting and a nice diversion from the other huge parks. They have a pretty nice history of the bible attraction and museum. The gift shops have a lot of interesting stuff you can't find anywhere else. TBN took over it at one point and they expanded and added more buildings. The live drama plays of different biblical events are a bit over the top and cringe-worthy, but overall I give it a thumbs up if you want to do something a bit different in Orlando.

TLC came along and gave them money for that reason alone, the Duggar Brand started to pay off for JB and Meech. they got a TV show, they got a house built and furnished, they traveled. I did laugh at Jessa throwing some shade on how they used to dress in the video when she and Jing were sorting clothing in the garage closet. She said some of the clothes were really old and maybe worn on Noah's Ark or something like that. I think they were probably the old clown collar prairie dresses.

I think Michelle really got off on the pregnancy/childbirth thing, although she didn't have much "heart" for the infants after they got a little older. IMO if Gothard's doctrines hadn't aligned so well with her own inclinations, the Duggars wouldn't have become such avid followers. But it was a win-win, since Michelle not only got to keep pumping out babies, she got all this adoration as a godly mother of a super-sized brood. Gothard's doctrines also provided great cover for fobbing off the household management and schooling of children to the older daughters. A super-win for Meech! She got to bask in the glory of her fecundity while her daughters toiled away behind the scenes. They weren't nicknamed the J'Slaves for no reason. 11 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/7311-the-duggars-and-their-world-fashion-food-finance-schoolin%E2%80%99-and-child-rearin/page/91/#findComment-6588583

They talked about receiving many "love offerings" during the early years. I believe they lived for a time for free in a house a church owned. @emmawoodhouse knows more about those details, I believe. I don't think it's a coincidence that they started to "home church" right around the time that TLC first showed interest in them. Jim Bob was happy to accept the charity of his fellow church members when his huge family was crammed into a tiny house and living on food baskets dropped off on their doorstep. Of course, Jim Bob was never really poor (he had a quarter of a million dollars to blow on a vanity political campaign), but it would have been easy to present the picture of a Godly family struggling to make ends meet and deserving of assistance. Then the TLC gravy train came along and it would be hard for the Duggars to hide the fact that they were now very comfortable. It would be only natural for the church that had helped to support them for so long to expect them to "pay it forward" and share their good fortune with other church members in need. So Jim Bob, who has no intention of sharing anything with anybody, selfishly decides to withdraw from church membership and start a "home church", dressing it up, of course, in lofty spiritual reasons. I'm not saying that money was the only reason for the move (Jim Bob's desire to be the big cheese and not have to answer to a pastor and deacons was also a consideration), but I'll bet it played a big part.

rue721 February 6, 2021 Share February 6, 2021 Damn, I have enough trouble keeping up with my own laundry. That said, the neighbor probably did it because otherwise the kids wouldn't have clean clothes, and nobody wants to see a bunch of kids running around in dirty second-hand clothes. That the Duggars were relying on neighbors and their church to provide their home, keep their kids in clean underwear, etc, shows that life in that house was tragic. 10 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/7311-the-duggars-and-their-world-fashion-food-finance-schoolin%E2%80%99-and-child-rearin/page/91/#findComment-6589460

I think you made good points in your post. I also wonder if JB and Meech were happy to get away from the church where the membership (or at least the "elders") knew about Josh's molestations. Wasn't there some confession by Josh to the church, and some statement of forgiveness by the victims? I wonder if JB wanted to keep the TLC production company and crew well away from those church members in case anybody even inadvertently spilled the beans. I know TLC soft-pedaled the Dugg's religious activities but if they were regularly attending a (not home based) church I can't believe the producers wouldn't want to shoot some footage of that. It's all water under the bridge long ago, but reading this made me think about it. 4 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/7311-the-duggars-and-their-world-fashion-food-finance-schoolin%E2%80%99-and-child-rearin/page/91/#findComment-6589593
emmawoodhouse February 6, 2021 Share February 6, 2021 TLC did show the Duggars fellowshipping after home church back in the day, but they have never shown them at any of their churches since. I for one would be interested in hearing Pa Caldwell preach knowing we'd be getting a sanitized version of his usual fire, brimstone, and hate. 1 1 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/7311-the-duggars-and-their-world-fashion-food-finance-schoolin%E2%80%99-and-child-rearin/page/91/#findComment-6589607

floridamom February 6, 2021 Share February 6, 2021 Their piano teacher who was decades older than Michelle doing their laundry for 12 years goes to show you that from the get go Jim Bob and Michelle were and are 'takers'. There is no way that I would allow someone else to do my family's laundry for me; let alone for years and years. A curious thing is that when Michelle tells this store, she has NEVER said what SHE DID for this woman in return....that's because she did NOTHING to repay her. 1 17 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/7311-the-duggars-and-their-world-fashion-food-finance-schoolin%E2%80%99-and-child-rearin/page/91/#findComment-6589873

Well, their children keep marrying in a church so there must be some connection to it unless the pastor is using it for publicty/ outreach purposes. I am not familiar with Protestant church weddings, but our parish requires pre-marital counseling and some tie to the parish and it isn't free. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/7311-the-duggars-and-their-world-fashion-food-finance-schoolin%E2%80%99-and-child-rearin/page/91/#findComment-6590439
