In God's Name: An Unseen Cult

With over 75 established sister churches, none of which took a name, Geftakys flew under the radar for decades while establishing abusive systems of control over his flock, all in the name of God. This podcast will show listeners what life inside this cult was like, as told exclusively by former members.
