In 1995 my husband and I attended Bill Gothard’s Advanced Seminar. I do not agree with everything put out by IBLP (Two of my concerns are, a different understanding concerning Bible translations and dress standards); but the best thing in the seminar for us was an understanding we gained concerning what motivates people.
