Named a Best Book of 2021 by multiple outlets, this memoir tells the inspiring story of liberation from the Children of God, an extremist religious cult. Faith Jones was raised on a secluded farm in Macau, where she was groomed to be part of a religious army preparing for the End Times. Her upbringing involved hours of prayer and reading prophecies from her grandfather, the cult's founder. As a celebrated figure within the cult, Faith faced both special treatment and harsh punishment, reminding her of her place. The Children of God evolved into a notorious international organization known for alarming sexual practices and abuse allegations. Despite these challenges, Faith demonstrated remarkable resilience, teaching herself high school subjects by pilfering books. At twenty-three, driven by a desire for knowledge and freedom, she broke away from the only life she knew to carve her own path in America. Blending a complex family narrative with a deeply personal coming-of-age story, this memoir sheds light on societal norms of oppression and abuse while exploring themes of spiritual manipulation and bodily autonomy. Honest and eye-opening, it reveals a hidden world that is both alien and surprisingly relatable.
