AUB Prophet’s Daughter & Husband Share Their Journey Out of Polygamy

AUB Prophet’s Daughter & Husband Share Their Journey Out of Polygamy

In this powerful interview, Sam and Melissa sit down with Melanie and Cory, a couple who bravely left the polygamous AUB (Apostolic United Brethren) church. Melanie, the daughter of the current prophet of the AUB, shares her harrowing experience of being married as a child bride within the church, and how she found the courage to escape in adulthood.


In this emotional conversation, Melanie opens up about the pressure of growing up under her father's leadership, the challenges of living in a polygamous community, and the pain of breaking free from a coerced marriage. Cory shares his own perspectives and how they've built a new life after leaving the AUB.
