BEYOND THE VEIL: Dr Christine - Cult Expert - shares personal story of trafficking, survival and transformation

Dr Christine shares her courageous personal story of survival, trafficking and transformation. An interview with a cult expert who has her own harrowing story of being taken by a false prophet. She shares her personal and instructive story relevant to the Daybell case, and the FLDS members who once followed Warren Jeffs. Dr Christine is the founder of Voices for Dignity, a non-profit in Hildale, Utah that helps survivors of trafficking, coercive control and oppression. Dr Christine and Lauren explore some of the founding beliefs of Mormonism to provide a picture of how offshoot cults among believing members of the LDS church can transpire and evolve.
