Another Way : The IFB Church and Cult Mentality

Not happily ever after but definetly a period of growth and restructuring as my children and I reunite. Closing thoughts and the difference between churches and cults, faith and religion.

Mark flees to the north with a new 'wife'. Tatiana exposes the truth. She faces down her fears and learns to deal with her problems.

More court hearings, why Mark didn't go to jail, Gene begins work on the roof and Mark hunts for a replacement family.

Tatiana and Mark get caught up in the court system, How will Tatiana make it on her own? She breaks off her relationship with Mark and begins to live alone .

Tatiana speaks on how her upbringing may have had affected her understanding of healthy boundaries. Tatiana gets some unwanted information from one of her daughters. The children end up leaving their home,

Tatiana explains the doctrines of her faith and how that differed in 'real life.' She finds someone who admires her and throws her life into a spiral of confusion as she toys with the idea of leaving her life with Mark behind.

Mark's popularity draws a crowd but Tatiana and the children are slowly disappearing.

Mark drifted away from his family and Tatiana becomes depressed . The church becomes a place of bigotry and more of a hotbed of segregation between the sexes,

What can Mark learn from an IFB missionary? Are missions really about teaching God's love to better the lives of humanity or is it all about putting on a show? Does anyone gain from Mark's ministry? Tatiana begins to question her husband's intent.

I discuss some of the differences between the IFB church and how these differences began to affect our family life.
