Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. There are many books on the cult phenomenon that bloomed in the wake of the social upheaval of the 1960s, and many discuss the abuses of cult leaders; the physical, mental, and emotional challenges of breaking free; and the lived experiences of those who manage to leave and begin to heal. With Mama Said: A Daughters Escape from the Alamo Christian Foundation, we get a unique anglewhat the daughter of a cult leader could see from the inside.Christhiaon Coie grew up Little Susie, the daughter of Susan Alamo and stepdaughter of Tony Alamo, founders of the Alamo Christian Foundation. Coie continued to embrace the faith as she got older, but she was not a little girl anymore and began to realize that people dont go to church and leave with the offering. She did not embrace the faith her mother was peddling, and she saw the financial grift that exploited the vulnerable followers. This is a story about the complex, unremitting relationship between a daughter and her abusive mother. Coie shares insight into Susan Alamo before her foundation days and reveals what it was like to grow up as her daughter between the 1950s and early 1970s. Across thirty-six chapters, she chronicles life within the Alamo cult and the twisted mother-daughter dynamic that persisted through it all. As Coies story unfolds, we see Little Susie transform into Christhiaon, navigating a manipulative mother and the distorted biblical teachings enlisted to her cause. With a foreword from noted Alamo cult historian Debby Schriver, Coies gritty memoir is a true survivor story. What she survived, however, was not the cult only but the cruel double bind of what mama said. There are many books on the cult phenomenon that bloomed in the wake of the social upheaval of the 1960s. Many discuss the abuses of cult leaders; the challenges of breaking free; and the experiences of those who manage to leave and begin to heal. With this book, we get a unique angle - what the daughter of a cult leader could see from the inside.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'This book provides a firsthand account of Christhiaon Coie's relationship with the Alamo Christian Foundation and particularly her mother, Susan Alamo. It sheds light on the early years of the group as a noteworthy type of new religious movement growing out of the social turmoil of the late 1960s. Even as a young person, Coie rarely came under the sway of Susan and Tony, and she could spot a grift when she saw one. Consequently, her relationship with her mother and stepfather became fraught and dangerous for her, as she was difficult to control and, in Susan and Tony's eyes, had the makings of a whistleblower on the business of the church. The memoir focuses fairly closely on the years up to Susan Alamo's death and the harrowing events that occur shortly after'. Seller Inventory # 9781621907305
