Is Seventh-Day Adventism a Cult?  Pastor’s Daughter Speaks Out

Is Seventh-Day Adventism a Cult? Pastor’s Daughter Speaks Out

Following our incredible interview with Melissa Duge Spiers, today we go LIVE to confront the question... Is Seventh-Day Adventism a Cult?

Melissa grew up in the shadow of control, silence, and secrets inside the insular fundamentalist sect, Seventh-Day Adventist Church. From being beaten for resisting a childhood home perm to seducing a forbidden public school athlete in her parents’ bed to reclaim her autonomy, Melissa’s early years were shaped by repression, shame, and religious programming. Her escape from the SDA church launched her into a life of risk. When Melissa learned that a family member was a serial chiId predator shielded by the church, her world imploded. But this revelation was only the beginning.
