Size: Paperback
A compelling and powerful account of the abuse and trauma experienced by Andrew LeCompte during his time in a spiritual community, based on the massively popular self-study book
A Course in Miracles.
"This gripping memoir demonstrates how an intelligent man can be gradually seduced by a cult."- Dr. STEVEN HASSAN
A lack of love in an authoritarian household sparked Andrew's lifelong search for love and belonging. His AA sponsor introduced him to A Course in Miracles, which Andrew studied deeply for twenty years. Then a celebrated spiritual teacher invited him to edit his first book and join his community. Andrew had been led to believe that he was chosen to find the Love of God. After a heart-rending parting from his family, he moved to Utah and joined the community.
He had some amazing early experiences while teaching the Course in Mexico, Spain, Hawaii, and Canada, some of them leading him to believe he that he was indeed finding the Love of God. But after six years of mistreatment, being coerced out of over $200,000, and emotional manipulation, Andrew found no real love, and certainly no miracles there.
He believed that he had burned all his bridges, but a loving message from his son helped Andrew to escape the cult and begin recovery. Tragically, he found his son dead on the floor a few years later. Andrew went through intense but highly effective mental health programs and emerged finally free of cultic mind control.
Ironically, he then experienced a miracle that brought him the love and happiness he hoped for.
This is a must-read first-hand account of a cult survivor who escaped a false spiritual program, based on a movement that has drawn millions of practitioners into its grasp.
