Prisoners of Hope Series This podcast is not our norm, but if you’d like to hear how Becky’s latest series about a religious cult came about, take a listen. 😊 We talk about cults in general and how controlling groups around the world have much in common, from a family dominated by one individual to a huge organization dominated by a narcissist and his or her inner circle. Neither of us is an expert on the topic, yet we’ve learned from our research and hope our discussion helps listeners avoid high-demand groups. At the end, Becky reads from the first book in the series, "Shattered Dream."
