The 1960s are known for many things, like free love and Woodstock.  But for some; it meant control, sexual abuse, and the apocalypse. So turn up the volume my spooky friends.  You are about to hear the story of the Children of God cult, and how their message of hope turned into a nightmare for some of their followers.  But before we get started today; I want to give you all a heads up.  Today we will be speaking about physical, mental, and sexual abuse of both adults and children.  Listener discretion is advised.
