Have you ever dreamed of a Christian utopia where everybody agrees? Do you strive to have others you fellowship with agree with your doctrines? What is the end result if you are successful? Such a unity comes at a cost, and the authority and discipline doctrines required to have near perfect unity contain within themselves the seeds of destruction. This novel details at a very personal level such a group that succeeded for nearly eighty years, resulting in a closely knit fellowship spread across the United States in which relationships reigned supreme. But as the destructive doctrines began to destroy the author's lifelong friendships, and families began to crumble under an evil influence, Rhett no longer believed his family was safe. This novel starts just before the fundamental Bible-based group suffers a sudden hostile takeover, as mind control techniques are deployed by a long standing minister who had recently retired from his mysterious job at a government weapons development center. It is the most disturbing time of Rhett's life as the group fragments and lifelong relationships are destroyed, but he receives unexpected rewards in his allegiance to Christ. So how would you know if you are the unknowing victim of very subtle mind control techniques that are putting you under the subconscious influence of those who just feign love and compassion, and will ultimately attempt to destroy you without remorse? Truth is indeed stranger than fiction.
