Mary Kumar
My friend, Mary Kumar shares her personal story and I know from my similar experience that she is telling the TRUTH. Whomever denies her truth is brainwashed (see Brainwashing) from that cult and really believes that God is working with the Hephzibah House's ministry. This YouTube video (below) hit home because she touched based on spiritual damage that happens in reform schools, wilderness programs, teen boot camps, conversion therapies etc. This is a different video she made regarding the Hephzibah House. Again, this boarding school for the wayward, is a sister program to Victory Christian Academy (where I was locked up into). These teachings of Christ are similar and ran by the same cult.
These cults are steering young children away from God and the church. It is definitely the wrong approach and Mary and myself are examples of the end result. I encourage other survivors to comment on how your program damaged you on a spiritual level.
The pastor running the program Victory Christian Academy, treated us the same and we were continuously alienated making us feel that we were "untouchables" not only to society but to God. We were conditioned everyday until, we believed it...
Personally, this so called man of God made me feel like an estranged woman and then I became one. I sought affection from relationships to fill that void because I felt so unloved. This remains a constant battle for me.
I can no longer enter into a church without experiencing PTSD. I want to be in the back. The associations with religious songs, a preacher yelling or any kind of praise to God is tantamount to an automatic machine gun going off in my mind.
Do you want this for your daughter or the helpless girls currently locked up in the Hephzibah House now? Yes, it's still open and a demonic sermon of something from a darker side is being preached from the pulpit. This doesn't include any of the physical abuse that goes on inside.
Please spread this around until, we get justice by saving these girls and prosecuting child abusers. Child abuse is illegal, right? #StopChildAbuseMary Kumar Ryjin Pearson Kara Poserina Meske Patrick Luganda Lucy PinonJodi Hobbs Jo Wright Jennifer Halter Tara Cummings Silvia Henry McMillanLorraine Kucuk Mark Levine CNN Kenneth T Fuchigami Tere Earl Teresa FryeTheresa Kent Rebecca Roy Thomas
