Publisher's Synopsis
In 2016, I was a part of a cult.
At the time I didn't think it was a cult. I was told it was another Seventh-day Adventist church. After five years of attending and watching conspiracy theories, drama, intrigue being preached at the pulpit, I knew that something needed to be said. I wrote "Disrupting Adventism," but much was left out. This is the personal story behind that book. The Countryside Offshoot is the story of worship gone wrong. Of a self-proclaimed pastor's unchecked power. Of the idea that Jesuits control everything in the world. As I watched the health of family members plummet and anger grow, I knew that something was wrong with their religious experience. I just didn't know how to say it. When I wrote Disrupting Adventism, I was thrilled to see how well it was received by those in the Seventh-day Adventist church. I also was happy to see that many people were seeing how the extremism in various offshoots and Independent self-supporting ministries is detrimental. I wanted to change lives. That's why I wrote this book as a sequel. It's time to change more lives! This book explores the writings of "Bill Hughes," author of The Secret Terrorists, The Enemy Unmasked, and Three Angel's Over Africa. It tells why Jesuit conspiracy theories are not what God has in mind for a Sabbath service. It tells how talk of chemtrails and FEMA camps caused members to become depressed, sick, and lose the joy of the Lord. I believe that I was brought through this experience for a reason. These books were meant to be written! If you are wondering: "Why is there so much extremism in the Seventh-day Adventist church" or "why are there so many Seventh-day Adventist offshoots?" then this book is for you!
