Fleeing in the Night: Roberta’s Harrowing Childhood Inside the WCG and Her Journey to Healing

 

Roberta was born into a nightmare—and raised in the Worldwide Church of God, a religious group with deep cultic control. In this raw, unfiltered interview, she recounts her earliest memories of violence and terror inside both her home and the WCG environment. From surviving extreme family abuse and escaping into the woods with her mother and siblings, to experiencing racism as a young mother and eventually finding healing through contemplation and therapy—Roberta’s journey is a powerful testament to survival, rebellion, and renewal. This is a story for anyone who has faced religious trauma, spiritual abuse, racism in faith communities, or family systems rooted in control and silence. Through the pain, there’s a message of hope, healing, and transformation. Watch as Roberta shares what it meant to reclaim her voice after decades of silence. 👇 If this story resonates, please like, comment, and share. 🔔 Subscribe for more survivor stories and cult recovery conversations. 👍 Like, Subscribe, & Hit the Bell to support our work!
