Really one eye-opener and head–scratcher of a book, seeing as David "Moses" Berg is literally a blood relative of the author as her grandfather.

The COG's (Children of God) new religious movement was introduced in the 1970's as an offshoot of the California centered "Jesus People Movement," but was far more radicalized for the time and place of origin where and when this new belief system was introduced.
Though no longer a hotbed of controversy in 2023, the group was once a prominent fixture on late night night television shows with the likes of (the now deceased) Barbara Walters, Hugh Downs, and 20/20 on the ABC television network.
At one time all the literature in association with the Children of God. (today simply regarded and known as "The Family," even following the demise and passIng of David "Moses" Berg as the original founder and. lifetime leader of this group) was uploaded in the form of the now so-called "Kult Komiks" for any and all individuals to read and simultaneously download by a group or groups of disgruntled and former members of "The Family."
Once widely known for casual and open policies on both polyamory and indiscreet behavior in sexual relations, "The Family" as an example of a "communal, Christ-centered, and Bible-based "Christian" cult or other New Religious Movement has all but disappeared.
