Children of God S*X CULT: My Grandfather Was the Founding Prophet (ft. Faith Jones)

Raised primarily in rural China, Faith Jones went a myriad of ab*ses before finally escaping The Children of God cult to pursue higher education. The cult is known for its far too liberal views on s*xuality which ended up being forced polyamory and free love, even extending to the young members of the communes. She grew up singing on the streets or performing in restaurants to make money for “the family” as none of the adults had jobs. Once she left, she was able to become a lawyer and now speaks on the moral principles that primarily focus on the property rights of self. She’s written two books which you can find on her websites below.
