- Опубліковано 5 лют 2025
- After dedicating much of his life to Jehovah's Witnesses both as an elder and a bethelite, Matthew's doubts about the organization threatened to exile him from his cherished family. But he was to learn that most of them already felt the same.

Otherwise, please understand that my time is stretched between my work as an activist and my private life, including my responsibilities as a father and husband. As much as I would like to make myself available to each and every person who reaches out to me, this will only occasionally be possible. I very much appreciate your understanding.
This is my dad. It’s kinda surreal to see this interview. We’ve come so far. Love this so much. Thank you for giving my dad a chance to share his story Lloyd!!!
Thaise - you seem to have a very wise dad. It’s lovely that you have eachother. Keep going. You’re doing great.💕🌷
You seem like you have a great dad. ❤️
Parenting done right! Wonderful that you had the courage to come out to him. Love and strength to you all!
@@willinwoods Matthews son, her brother is who came out! She is the one in the family that first said to her dad "im done" with jw. Her part in the story is just as important as her brothers is.
I and my husband are PIMOs now and we want to trategically step out of the JW.
This is also my dad, I think a lot of those drives we went on. Don’t ever let anyone tell you that you can’t think for yourself, or even have a question. If you have a question, ask it, we should be able to do that without the fear of ostracism. ❤ I love the support I received over the last year and a half.♥️
You and your family sound like a truly healthy one. I'm so glad that your dad reacted this way, and that you have each other. ❤ No one should be able to make us hide who we are, when we're not hurting anyone. 🌈
So happy for you and your wonderful family ❤
I’m sure you will find a lot of people support you, but having your family’s support is the most important. Have pride in who you are, love who you love and always remember you were created this way, so how can that be sin? Take care ❤
Thank you for having Matthew on Lloyd. Great interview and I am so happy that he stands by his children and whole family for that matter. The number one phrase that I hear elders say that leave is "I just can't do this anymore." That tells me something. Thanks Lloyd and thanks Matthew for sharing your story.
MICH,
Indeed. It's all too easy for family relationships to disintegrate entirely when it comes to the Jehovah's Witness faith.
@@b.w.7588 its just so sad.
Love to Matthew! What an authentic, nice person. Thanks for sharing your story
This was so great! Thank you Matthew for sharing your story. We probably know some of the same people because I have JW family in the Kansas City area and I know JWs in Springville. Cheers to us that made it out at our age. My husband and I were 49 and 50 when we woke up last year. 🥂
🎉🎉🎉 So good to hear, thx for sharing 😊
One of the best types of critical jw videos is the personal testimony. This was a good example. Thank you.
Really enjoyed this interview! Wish I had a dad like this when coming out of the jw cult. my PIMI biological father hasn’t spoken to me in 8 years and now I consider him dead to me.
❤
Great interview 👏👏my husband and I left this cult October 2021 . Matthew williams welcome to freedom 👏👏
This interview will help wake up more people. Good job guys .
I pray that happens.
I told my JW mother I was done in early 1991. I was disfellowshipped a month later. I was 16 when I was baptized in 1983. I stopped attending meetings in 1985. I was able to fade until I was 24 in 1991. It was ironic that R.E.M.'s "Losing My Religion" was a big hit in 1991 too. It became my anthem, and still is to this day. The lyrics really fit me, and what this cult did to my relationship with my JW mother. I think it's a good song for all ex-JW's, IMO.
Me to.was it sstan?
1you are loved Lloyd.
@bunchlead Good For You Congratulations
I do a pretty mean cover of that song.. 😉😉😉
Love that song myself. Have you ever heard of a band called Mercy Me? They have a song titled Can Only Imagine. They play it pretty regularly at my church. You should give it a listen.
Pardon my expression...but that was one hell of a good interview! Mathew...you're a great person...a great parent and a great husband. May God continue to bless you & yours! Thank you too Lloyd for this interview. I do look forward to hearing from your daughter, son & wife in future interviews
I would rather eat a bowl of nails covered in hot sauce than go back to that cult. Thanks for yet another great interview, Lloyd!!
Hell yeah! This was a great interview. My spouse and I sat at dinner and listened to this. ❤️
Thank you so much for opportunity to listen to lovely person and his life experience ❤❤❤❤
This is an incredible father. My dad was the last one to know I was gay. And still doesn't know I'm no longer a Christian. I can't imagine the sort of openness he must have expressed with them their entire lives to foster that type of love and acceptance.
Emily,
It has to be hard to come out as LGBT+ and then as an ex-member of a parent's religion. Matthew must have been one of those rare JW parents or guardians that you don't see too often.
30 years ago, I was appointed by the Circuit Overseer to serve on an Appeal Committee. The Original Congregation had Disfellowshiped a young man on circumstantial evidence. He had sat up all night with a young woman. He said they talked and listened to music and had no Sexual contact. We upheld the decision of the original judicial committee and Disfellowshipped the young man. I can still see that young man crying so hard he had snot pouring all on his suit jacket. It was terrible what we did to people following Watchtower's instructions. 😢
Meine jüngste Tochter wurde zweimal ausgeschlossen . Beim zweiten mal brach sie zusammen , bettelte und weinte , dass es ihr leid tut , man entzog ihr trotzdem die Gemeinschaft ,
Ein Ältester rief uns an , wir sollten unsre Tochter abholen kommen , weil sie nicht mehr in der Lage war , mit ihrem Auto heimzufahren ( der königreichssaal war fünf Autominuten weg von unsrem haus , aber niemand wollte sie heim fahren . Als wir hinkamen , stand sie allein im Foyer uns weinte . Mein Mann und ich schleiften sie aus dem Saal , ein Ältester stand daneben und ging dann weg ,als wir kamen.
Man erkannte keine Reue Jehova gegenüber , so wurde ihr Ausschluss begründet.
Ich bin Pimo , mein Mann leider immer noch stark involviert und steht hinter dieser kranken Lehre ...
Es ist schwer , den entscheidenden Schritt des verlassens der Gemeinschaft zu gehen ,aber ich werde es tun.. meine Tochter ist ebenfalls Pimo , weil sie weis, dass ihr Vater dann nicht mehr mit ihr reden würde ... das alles ist sehr belastend...
Ich kann nur sagen: ich hasse das Geheuchel und Getue sehr , und wünschte mein Mann würde endlich aufwachen😔
@Angelika Rothfuchs Thank you for sharing your situation. I was on about a dozen judicial committees that did not end well. Some of them involved very close Brother's and Sisters. It was one of the reasons I quit. I couldn't keep hurting people and devastating families. 😢
Krass
Great interview, Lloyd. You had me definitely relating to Mr. Williams.
That’s horrible!
Great interview and I hope you have more like these in store. I also binge listen to your channel and you were instrumental in freeing me mentally years after being df and feeling like I was walking around with a bullseye on my chest for a lightening bolt at Armageddon. Thanks for all you do Loyd, you really do make difference in so many peoples lives.
What a nice, down-to-earth guy. Great to hear from him.
Lloyd you legend keep up the great work
Great interview Lloyd! Thanks for sharing your story Matthew! Each and every voice matters!
What a great interview, in both my judicial cases it ended up those elders had been up to no good and were df not long after.
Allways made me wonder how an earth did they make a decision on my case if supposedly they had jehovahs spirit..it did not make sense to me ..slowely i started to waken after that.
Such an interesting case and conversation! Thank you for sharing.
Great interview, Matt! So proud of you, and I'm honored to call you a friend and a fellow activist!! (Soon to be) 😅
Matthew, you are an amazing and compassionate human being!
Amazing!
I also found you here. I had already faded away plus moved away. That helped me to think for myself. Your information and the stories blow me away. What a stress reliever getting out.
I love this episode. I lived in NW AR for 20 years. Especially now in AR with the religious and political extremism, I can’t imagine how difficult it is to be public about all of this.
I hope we get to hear from Matthew again, really appreciated this interview. You guys really hit it off, so if your on a good thing stick to it!
This was a great Interview. Matt seems like a really great role model of a dad
When a JW came to me to return to Jehovah in 2016, I told her about the pedophiles being the reason I quit six years before. She told me I could still have eternal life by going to another hall. I actually wasted a moment picturing that horror and the triggers. Pedophiles bounce from one congregation to the next. Even if I didn't see them there, it wouldn't be okay to sit in another hall with hidden criminals. I wouldn't feel better just because I didn't know them and the children the elders tortured to protect the Watchtower.
Great interview, thank you❤
What a great story and thanks to both of you!!
Great interview! Thanks for coming forward and sharing Matthew J Williams. I would like to connect with you. Much of what you shared in the way of feelings, I can relate to. I am not out yet, and like you did, I currently worry about my family going forward. I would love it if some would surprise me one day with similar responses; "I can't do this anymore". Feel free to send me a message.
Congratulations on your mental freedom! that alone makes me feel proud of myself, although it is not an easy journey, specially the first year. knowing that you are playing the game and see things with eagles' eye is so satisfying. Be patient & kind w your family, plant seeds & make sincere subtle questions to make them reason. Remember that confrontation makes any jw shut down and not listen anymore, they go on panic mode. Good luck .
Incredible interview. Matthew seems like a great guy. :)
Mathew Williams your a real father and a real man. Thank you for letting us know that..
Watchtower agenda has destroyed thousands and thousands of people personal and families lives ..
I'm learning so much! This was really good.
Lost my mother to the No Transfusion rule. The HLC are merchants of death. They got another notch on their belt with my mom's life.
You speak well Matthew. Really interesting listen. Thx
I remember asking my brother if a friend of mine who was homeless living on the beach and streets of this man came to the kingdom Hall would he be accepted even though his clothes are dirty and not a suit. My brother said that he would buy the man a suit and he can change into it at the kingdom Hall before the meeting. Because I reminded him if he gave him a suit he wouldn't be able to put it anywhere. Anyway, I thought that was awful because my friend would feel like he wasn't good enough and would make him even more embarrassed. Of course my brother didn't understand so I gave up. It's just sad especially for women who end up with a whole closet full of clothes just for the meeting. It's expensive and demeaning that you aren't accepted the way you are.
I’m hoping that one of PIMO’s at bethel can spill the tea as to what happened with Tony tight pants…
This man must be the best father ever!!! 😊
Great interview Lloyd; you should have Mr Williams on again. He gave a lot of himself for his congregants, he truly looked after the best interest of faithful. All that and for what? To be thrown to the curb. 1:02:59
This is what I have suspected for a while; families living in fear of losing one another if they speak their doubts. May they all find the courage and know the true God of love and freedom.🙏
At first I was actually scared to read or watch opposing opinions regarding JWs …I wanted to prove to myself that this was the real deal “The Truth …so as I researched I discovered the man behind the curtain was all smoke n mirrors and the spell was broken I encourage anyone who is on the fence to read and listen to other’s testimonies and not be afraid to ask questions 🙌🏻thank you for the interview 🙌🏻
Great interview 🍺🍺
You can be sure, that the elders are still hoping that Matthew's wife will be able to bring Matthew and the kids, back to the fold, so to speak. Stay strong Matthew, you are a great person, and I wish you and your daughter, and your son all the luck in the world, as you move forward with your lives.
He's obviously a good person, and I just want to mention that his beard looks great! It's so cool and neat and dignified with the greying - and somehow having it wouldn't be allowed in the Organization.
Great conversation, brave souls
Love what you said to your wife ❤ I still have a foot in the door with a close family friend who is an elder and close to my 3 kids he hates the injustice and helping my kids deal with which their mum being dubbed an apostate for exposing to them CSA and the lies. I’ve done nothing wrong and they know it. I’ve told them I’m done and they are scared.
Great interview 👍
What a brave, honest and loving man!
Hey I'm from Missouri too. I'm from St Louis, but have traveled to Columbia and Kansas City a few times for talks. I was in the Spanish congregation here in STL from 2015 until I left in 2021. Nice to see another individual waking up. Cheers
Thank you Lloyd for this interview and Mathew you are and incredible human being wish you the best with your activism. ❤
My husband of 28 years is seriously considering becoming a baptized JW member. He was raised as one, but never was baptized. Both his parents are deceased and when I met him he promised me that he would NEVER join that organization. Idk what to do. I am devastated. He has heart disease, so he is afraid and scared right now, and recently started attending bible study and Sunday services. I have talked with him about the shunning policy, and he says that it is a lie. I am a licensed mental health therapist, so I know that it is true, as I have had to counsel people who have been hurt by this organization. I told him that I believe their goal would be to separate us. He says it is not true. I need to know more. Please help me.
Great interview!
Lovely guy , and so interesting to listen to.
I can't wait!!!!
Great interview! Thanks Matthew for sharing your story!
Great interview, what an intense story!
Matthew J. Williams seems like a lovely man. I'm sure his family are also lovely people, too. This was a very enjoyable interview.
What an amazing dad. I never had one but if I did, I’d want this one
Great interview! I would love to know if Matthew Williams has a way I can follow him. His story resonated with me and he may know some old friends of mine who were serving at bethel when he was.
Excellent interview; welcome to the real world Matthew. I’m glad you got away from the ‘enemy of happiness’ cult..😂😂😊
when I got baptized what struck me was all the young women checking us out as we came out. I felt weird in my swimming trunks and tee-shirt being eyeballed. There was one that was cute I remember. What a crazy world.
Women will look ! Guys don’t like to think of us as sexual beings because of centuries of toxic religious sexual repression
Very interesting testimony , I am a Christian but struggle with Noahs, Ark too. Very interesting to hear stories within the JW, and why people leave
Is there a link the the Mark ODonnell interview??
Great interview
Matthew.... if you see this.... I'm where you are. Thank ou for telling your story!
Thank you for this nterview. Most jw elders are arrogant and gets turned on with controlling the sheep.
Great interview! I really hope Matthews wife isn't getting pressure from inside the Congo. They get in people's ears. I'm sorry she is still indoctrinated 😥
She will see them again. I have learned so much.
My brother Keith is that elder, only he didn’t apply his BS rules to himself. Just everyone else. If he were alive in Jesus day he would have been one of the Pharisees certainly not a follower of Jesus. I jokingly say that if Jesus were alive today he would be telling him that’s not how you walk on water, that’s not how you heal the blind. He preached about how it’s our Christian duty and to clean the assembly hall and then publishers will go up to my other brother and say “where’s Keith? He went on this tirade about cleaning and yet he’s not here” and all my brother could do was shrug. He’s an awful awful human being, he treated our parents abominably, bully them, threaten them, but to the congregation he was this wonderful person always willing to help, and because my mom was awesome would snort and tell them to be thankful they aren’t related to him. I have told many people still close to me that I won’t be part of a religion where he is looked at as being in good standing and I’m a loser, and if paradise is going to be filled with people like him and his equally vile wife, then no thanks, I’d rather be dead. I told my other elder brothers the same and I think they are now realizing what kind of impact he has had on my life. Nothing I ever did was good enough, I have never had so much as even a thank you when I basically raised his 3 kids for him, bought ALL their clothes and what I got was that dress wasn’t long enough, or too low cut, which it NEVER was. No surprise his 3 children have nothing to do with him and moved far away from him and their step-monster.
ssf Heather,
Your brother sounds like he's very egotistical. If I had to guess, serving as a Jehovah's Witness Elder must give him a power trip. It sounds me like most of your Witness relatives don't even want anything to do with him. When you have people who act like that, why would anyone ever want to live on a Paradise Earth with them for all of eternity? To me, that would Hell.
@@b.w.7588 very much so, he’s a narcissist as his wife and together they are just horrific. And no my other brothers don’t want to have anything to do with them. Keith spent the last 20 years hell bent on destroying us because we had the audacity to tell him he was making a mistake with his 2nd wife, she was reinstated on Thursday and their first date was that Saturday. He used her brother to get in with her and then dumped him and his kids for her, and we said that what he was doing was going to destroy his kids and he didn’t care and now they have nothing to do with him. He wasn’t allowed to get married in the KH because of how they got together. But of course they fail to mention that tidbit. Our parents died last year within 5 months of each other and 30 days after mom died he wanted to know where HIS money is, and had the audacity to complain that our parents spent too much of HIS money. He thought that he was going to boss our mom around after dad died and that just shows how mush he didn’t know who his mom was, or me, because anytime they bullied her mommy called me to handle it, and I put him and his bitch wife in their place. If I wrote a book critics would say that his character was unrealistic, but nope…all true!! No one child or adult alike wants someone basically saying do as I say not as I do. He would 1 million % would have been a Pharisee in Jesus day.
Wasn't it Rudyard Kipling that said "Always to thine own self be true"?
Oh wow the entire family was dipped at the same time. I feel for you but you are out now? I was baptized during a district convention and they bussed us to green point assembly hall in queens all the way from Nassau colosseum. It was horrible and at the ripe of 15 I brainwashed enough that it was everything to me. I was committed to making it work and I was prepared to sacrifice my future by giving up on college and going to a Fast technical school so I could have a job that would allow me to be a witness an elder and raise a family. Now I look back I realize just how brainwashed I was , how much time I wasted and my future ruined. I could’ve gone to college and built a better future for me and my family. 😢😢
You're not alone. It's tragic. Many lives not lived, people not pursuing what they were meant to career wise, not developing into perhaps the "person" they could have become and accomplishing valued and worthwhile interests and goals.
I "lost" 40 years.
What a lovely guy.
The key difference lies between a real submissive faith in Jesus Christ vs "submission to an organization"
Yes and Amen!
What’s Matthew’s UA-cam channel?
Bethel is almost a kin to military service
Nice , just nice 👍
Jesus is the Life and the Resurrection!! Whoever believes in Him will live forever!!
Yes.
It has to me one of the hardest things in the world to do, to come out as a "doubting Thomas" about the JW faith, and then for Matthew's son to come as gay, that opens a whole other can of worms. Coming out as LGBT, I'm sure, isn't easy either. I imagine that when you're an Elder, you probably don't think about the possibility of your kids identifying as LGBT and cannot imagine them being disfellowshipped or choosing to leave the faith of their own volition. The idea of their children questioning their parents or guardians' religion has to seem almost unfathomable to a JW Elder. Maybe that has to do with the whole Preacher's Kid phenomenon. Children of religious leaders are expected to be highly devout, even more so than your average lay member of a church. They're expected to adhere to a higher standard. And when they don't live up to that standard, it's going to come as huge shock most likely.
Atheists, Agnostics, and fanatics of all Religions KNOW and are fully aware that thousands of years and nothing has changed....

Matthew, I sure hope that we are cousins!!
ACK! Run away! It's the JW organization slayer! 😉
If you were an elder and disfellowshipped someone that new light says that is not a disfellowshipping offense how would you feel.
If you were an elder that told a young girl that you don’t have two witnesses to your molestations and you later found out that person later raped and molested more children how would you feel.
There was no way I will tell a friend to not allow a blood transfusion for your child. If I am an elder no doubt I would get those type of phone call even from close friends.
If I see a dad being like the prodigals dad I would not sit that man before a Judicial committee.
When the GB admitted they are not spirit directed nearly all JW’s believe that somehow they are spirt directed.
In a recent talk by Kenneth Cooke he is saying, you should look at them as spirt directed. His talk also debunks what Jeffery Jackson said about it would be presumptuous to say that they are Gods one and only Channel.
I was babtized April 1990 in Germany ☺️
I feel it's silly when people say that the ark doesn't make sense because Noah couldn't logically feed the animals. But, they believe that Jesus fed thousands with a few fish and pieces of bread.
Jesus _and_ Moses spent 40 days without food. Why is Noah's Ark so different?
Spoiler Alert: I'm an atheist.

Indeed, why would God need to flood the world at all? Couldn't he just click his fingers and destroy what he needed to in an instant. The whole Bible thing is such a human made, human centric weave of superstitious nonsense, to us atheists.

It’s very simple…god magic.
But on the point of fasting there are modern day examples of people water fasting for 40 days for health/other reasons. I watched one podcast with a doctor saying that water fasting for 40 days is the limit most people can fast without long term damage to their bodies. I’m sure different doctors have different opinions but a 40 day fast is possible.
@@dksndnndsjsndndn7875 - That's my point. If anyone believes that God can perform magic, I mean miracles, why is it so hard for them to accept Noah's story? Where does a Bible fundamentalist draw the line?
👍👍👍
It's sad that satan messed us up but it's time to repent.dont you agree?That's my feelings.i been out since the 9o's.
No. Obviously you haven't come to the conclusion this is a high control group. A cult. Life is too short to be involved in something like this.
Now to go watch the Mark McDonnell episode. 😂
Matthew Williams do you have a UA-cam Channel? please share
He doesn’t! I’m trying to convince him to make one tho 🤣

Nightmare!
Do u know as a permanently disabled person who is unbaptised and still believing in the paradise hope and end to this wicked system of things after watching all these videos shattered me and driving me to deeper depression. Are you all saying paradise hope is fake and then what am I living for? I pray Jehovah will do something about this and the governing body to correct all these mistakes made. I still believe in Jehovah. Do any other religions give better hope? I'm very disturbed now
Legenda por favor!
Matthew, Do you still believe in God?
Yah, but was she done with bloviate abscesses? Happy Karma!
That is why many Jehovah's Witnesses remain slaves to the governing body! Many dissidents become "atheists", ... and begin to criticize the Holy Bible! Now, if the Holy Bible is not holy, what do you have to offer me to "guide" my faith in this dark, iniquitous and rotten world we live in? If you no longer believe in the Holy Bible, then you are denying the law of Christ, you are denying the teaching of Christ, for Christ BELIEVED in the Holy Bible! 2nd John 7 - 11, Matthew 4 : 1- 10
Tradução para o Português :
Por isso que muitas testemunhas de Jeová continuam escravas do corpo governante! Muitos dissidentes se tornam " ateus",.. e passam a criticar a Bíblia Sagrada !
Ora, se a Bíblia Sagrada não for sagrada, o que você tem a me oferecer para " guiar " a minha fé neste mundo tenebroso , iníquo e podre em que vivemos ? Se você não crê mais na Bíblia Sagrada , então você está negando a lei de Cristo, você está negando o ensino de Cristo, pois Cristo ACREDITAVA na Bíblia Sagrada ! 2ª João 7 - 11, Mateus 4 : 1- 10
The TRUTH is very important to the Creator and his Christ.
The lives, welfare, dignities, and existence of imperfect, suffering, and dying human beings on earth depend on TRUTH.
The TRUTH about the authority and teachings of Jesus Christ -
What is the Creator's will and purpose for imperfect, suffering, and dying human beings?
ANSWER -
The loving, kind, and merciful Creator wants all imperfect, suffering, and dying human beings to submit to the authority of his Christ as his Chosen King and Ruler of the heavens and the earth and believe his teachings about the "Kingdom of God" and "Resurrection of the Dead" so they can be favored, honored, and rewarded with ETERNAL LIFE and existence without sufferings, pains, griefs, miseries, sickness, and deaths on a safe, secure, and peaceful earth without arrogant, cruel, hateful, and merciless persons, without liars, slanderers, deceivers, hypocrites, murderers, criminals, and terrorists.
What is the "Resurrection of the Dead" for?
ANSWER -
The teaching of Jesus Christ about the "Resurrection of the Dead" is the Creator's guarantee that all loving, kind, and respectful human beings who died even thousands of years ago like Abel, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, King David, Jesus Christ's disciples, and many others will be resurrected back to life in the Creator's own right time so that all loving, kind, and respectful human beings can happily and abundantly live and exist on earth forever as submissive and obedient subjects of the "Kingdom of God" and fully enjoy the eternal love, kindness, goodness, generosities, compassions, favors, and blessings of the Creator and his Christ for eternity under the loving and kind rulership of the Creator's Chosen King and Ruler of the heavens and the earth.
The TRUTH about Atheism, Agnosticism, and Religious Fanaticism
Atheists, Agnostics, and Fanatics of all Christian and non-Christian Religions in the world KNOW and are fully aware that they rejected what the Creator wants for human beings and fill the world instead with the lies and false teachings of Satan's anti-Christs about "Armageddon", "Trinity", "heaven and hellfire", rapture, and "reincarnation".
All the great, superior, and powerful Atheists, Agnostics, and fanatics of all Christian and non-Christian Religions KNOW and understand the TRUTH that they rejected the Creator's favor and reward of ETERNAL LIFE and existence on earth without sufferings, pains, griefs, sickness, and deaths and chose instead ETERNAL DEATHS, just turn into worthless and useless dusts on earth forever after their inescapable deaths.
Wait, your evidence that the Bible is inspired is at least partly “they call it the Holy Bible”?
@@LloydEvans 1st John 5:7; John 8: 1-11; Mark 16:9-20, .. These are texts that do not appear in the best Greek manuscripts of the New Testament. The rest of the 66 books of the Holy Bible do not contain anything serious that makes it impossible for us to accept them as inspired by God. 2nd Timothy 3: 16, 17
