This is the remarkable story of a young woman's harrowing experience in a religious sect and how she overcame the devastating effects that sought to take control of her life. August, 1977, Faye Thomas was the fortunate recipient of a full scholarship to study abroad in Madrid, Spain. Anticipating the opportunity to soak up the culture and pursue her studies, Faye was unprepared for the two years of manipulation and mind control forced upon her and dozens of other women caught in the deceptive and destructive web of the Children of God. Today, many young adults will be introduced to religious cults. Cult members approach their victim by highlighting the supposed attributes of their organization, such as communal living, shared financial responsibilities and the freedom to dedicate one's life one hundred per cent to God by dropping out of school or society. Written from personal experience, this book will empower ex-cult members as they work to rebuild their life while educating the Christian believer to have a greater awareness of the signs of cultic activity within a religious organization. Compelling, informative, and thoughtfully written, The Children of God is a must read for anyone in need of a guiding light. Publisher's website: http://sbpra.com/FayeThomas
