Vyckie Garrison started No Longer Quivering to tell the story of her “escape” from the Quiverfull movement.
Over time, NLQ has developed into a valuable resource of information regarding the deceptions and dangers of the Quiverfull philosophy and lifestyle. Several more former QF adherents are now contributing their stories to NLQ and our collective voice makes these Quiverfull warnings impossible to dismiss or ignore.
NLQ is a gathering place for women escaping and recovering from spiritual abuse.
Listen to Vyckie's Story now:
Michelle says, Never enough babies!
What the quiverfull movement doesn't have is satisfaction. It casts itself as only looking for "blessing" but in many cases it seems to go far beyond that to reach the collectors' mentality which bespeaks more of greed, grabbing for every child you can, and if you don't do that, you fail spiritually. It's an insidious teaching and my only regret in accepting my atheism is knowing that there will be no ultimate reckoning where those who promoted and gained from this teaching do not face what they have created and see it for what it really is. The quiverful movement claims to welcome every child, but it never allows you to be happy with just what you have already. Satiety and peace are foreign to it.

CNN can’t be expected to much right. Remember their major blunder with ANderson Cooper and Dr. Gupta covering the hoax called Amanda Baggs? Yep, CNN has NEVER corrected this colossal media f up. Nor has Gupta apologized for his error in being DUPED by amanda baggs. CNN’s Anderson Cooper never fereted Baggs. Never even took time to look at her simple open background to see she’s a drug induced psychogenic case of someone who thinks she has autism. She clamis to have been diagnosed at 20, yet the American psychiatric associtaion states, “Autism spectrum disorder is a neurodevelopmental disorder and must be present from infancy or early childhood…” Sometimes kids are diagnosed a bit later, but certainly not in 20′s and certainly not after you discover Baggs did tons of drugs and was in a mental ward in her teens, never showing signs of autism. Of course CNN didn’t bother to uncover that part of story. Way to go Dr. Gupta, Anderson Cooper and CNN. Of course Cooper is interesting in his connection with Baggs, after all Baggs, the alleged autistic woman also claims she’s GAY! Wow, what a connection. How sick and twisted is the media these days. It seems truth doesn’t matter and whoever is hosting show finds and fondles anyone who has the same agenda he/she does. Just putrid. ANderson cooper is a fraud.
