I have never watched this TLC show, but this is good. I have sat with people who have come out of the IBLP and similar cults. I have companioned wives who have been abused through the teaching, children who have been given a distorted view of God and are still deprogramming, and parents who have grieved ever getting involved with IBLP (and similar cult-like teaching) when they have seen the long-term effects on their children. Picking up this book was hearing a very familiar story. Jill and her husband have come out of this with such grace and love. This is a worthwhile read.
"What makes the desert beautiful is that somewhere it hides a well" (The Little Prince by de Saint-Exupéry). One woman's journey to wellness through a well-adjusted heart, well-watered soul, well-educated mind, and well-tuned body. "Love the Lord your God with all your HEART, and with all your SOUL, and with all your MIND, and with all your STRENGTH" (Mark 12:30-31).
