None other than Michael, the son of the fallen cult leader Gwen Shamblin Lara, approached us to share about his long, sad flight through the black skies of the Remnant Fellowship stratosphere. As one of its defacto leaders, Michael Shamblin - now going by his nom de guerre Michael S Black - he sat at ground zero to behold the conception, birth and mutation of his mother's cult into the monstrosity it became. The experience was almost beyond telling and frankly, this was a meeting that I don't think either of us ever imagined would ever happen. But it happened!
Our conversations ultimately became channeled into what has been one of the deepest dives into the deception I've ever done. Michael's work is a personal testimonial to just how black the depths of a cult can be and how it can so terribly impact a young man who was completely absorbed into it from the days of his youth onward. How he finally emerged from it is one of the most gripping personal reveries you'll ever hear. It is unsparing, direct, delivered without dramatic flair, intensively real and transparent. We invite you to tune in and are grateful to Michael's contribution to discernment shared out of his own unique and unenviable perspective.
