There have been many conflicting and murky stories about Youth With A mission (YWAM).
Their rulling body is dynastically appointed by it's Founder(s). It appears to be a loosely bound organization yet firmly controlled from the Top.
The rising concerns stem from the fact that they are dealing with young adults at their most impressionable ages and some of the dogma inculcated is peculiar to that organization according to their version of "Phrophets" who espouse things like "Cultural Redemption" (?) and propagate and crusade for these concepts??.
They operate from "Bases around the world with little or no supervision from a Central source of accountablity.
The local Base Leadership can range from a rigid control type to a loose and relaxed environment.
Their "courses" i.e., on "Cultural Redemption" have been accused of being riddled with complete unverifable statements regarding Cultural Anthropology and Ancient History and the Bible.
Is YWAM on Cult status?

I know some discerning teens that have gone on some mission trips with them, and they didn't say anything like that.
