When I left the GRC with its destructive ministry, it took some time to recover my TRUE self and it was achieved mainly through research and Faith.
The following is a list of books that can be purchased in good bookstores in Australia and overseas, some are available in "christian" bookstores ( God will not strike you down if you walk into one of these) and best of all they can be purchased on the internet through Amazon.com !!!!!
They are not listed in any particular order:
Churches that Abuse by Ron Enroth
Recovering From Churches That Abuse by Ron Enroth
Combating Cult Mind Control by Steven Hassan
The Suptle Power of Spiritual Abuse by Johnson and Van Vonderon
Healing Spiritual Abue by Ken Blue
Captive Hearts Captive Minds by M Tobias & J Lalich
Dangerous Persuaders by Louise Samways
The Cultic Phenomenon by Dan L Markam
Thought Reform and the Psychology of Totalismby Robert J Lifton
Recovery From Cults: Help For Victims Of Psychological And Spirirual Abuse by Michael D Langone
Take Back Your Life: Recovering From Cults And Abusive Relationships by J Lalich & M Tobias
The books listed are just a few that are available to helpyou unravel just what did happen to you over the years and why it happened. As I said before, I found them to be a wonderful tool to help with my recovery and you can get them on the internet along with many, many more that deal with the topic ofspiritual abuse and abusive pastoring and churches.
Happy reading and recovery,Glad
