I just watched a powerful documentary, “I Escaped a Cult”, available on YouTube, as well as Netflix.

*** Trigger Warning: very honest and descriptive, including rape, sexual abuse, and explicit about mind-control techniques.

I found it personally disturbing because many of the ways the victims described their experiences were familiar to me. I had experienced many of the same things, including all the warfare talk, casting out of the spirit of rebellion, various kinds of deprivation, shunning, and many more things that happen in radical Christian communities.

It made me realize that I was a victim of many cult-like ideologies and activities.

Again: be warned. It is very honest and explicit.

Exercise: What specific things were mentioned in the video that you yourself experienced? Care to share?
