Same evil, different "church"!

Posted by on January 20, 2006 at 11:49:52

The following is from a cults/apologetics newsletter I subscribe to. After the intro is a URL for the transcript of yesterday's Paula Zahn show on CNN. It seems that a "mega-church" in Atlanta, GA has encountered a problem of spiritual abuse similar to TF.

Here's part of the intro:

"To: AR - talkers:

I was able to record the Earl Paulk scandal on CNN - Paula Zahn segment (1/19/06). Dr. Paul Martin, Ph.D, Director of Wellspring and David Clark gave a special weekend healing and recovery workshop in the Atlanta, Georgia area. There were approximately 200 former members which included Paulk's church that believed their experience was very similar to recovering from a cultlike group phenomenon in the early 1990's. This took place after the Paulk's previous public sex scandal that happened then."

Apparently, the mega-church has a leader similar to DBB.


Here's the URL for the entire transcript:
