Some of the other questions fans had for Joy-Anna Duggar Forsyth and Austin Forsyth were a little tougher. Because Joy’s parents were members of the controversial Institute in Basic Life Principles (IBLP), followers wanted to know if she and her husband still belong to the group, and if not, which church they belong to now. Joy and Austin were quick to disassociate with the problematic church ministry, explaining they stopped associating with the IBLP immediately after they were married. The Forsyths currently attend a traditional Baptist church. “We follow Jesus alone,” Joy said.
One of Joy’s sisters, Jill Duggar Dillard, just released a tell-all book, “Counting the Cost.” It denounces not only the IBLP, but also many of the things their father, Jim Bob, did for the sake of staying on the air. An Insta fan asked whether the Forsyths plan to read it. Joy said yes: “I read Jinger [Duggar Vuolo]’s book, I’ll read Jill’s book. …I want to know what it’s about, I want to know what she has to say.” Chimed in Austin, “If your family member wrote a book about your family, would you read it? Duh. The answer’s in the question.” It might be worth noting, however, that Joy has yet to “like” any of Jill’s Instagram preview posts about “Counting the Cost.” It remains to be seen whether the next vlog installment will include Joy’s review of her sister’s book.
