These so-called Church of God leaders exhibit a chilling indifference to the devastation their doctrines unleash on families, relationships, and sacred bonds of marriage. They prioritize their own opulent, privileged lifestyles—lavishly funded by the blind devotion of their exploited followers—over the human suffering they cause, as long as the money keeps flowing in.
Thankfully, a growing wave of awakening is eroding these toxic groups, with membership plummeting as people reclaim their freedom. Yet, we cannot ignore the tragic legacy: a trail of shattered dreams, broken hearts, and ruined lives that demands we expose and dismantle these cults before they claim even more victims. If you've been touched by this nightmare, know that escape is possible—seek truth, support, and justice now.

RCG Has Ruined My Marriage and Life:
October 1, 2025
When I married my husband, he was an atheist (he said). About 10 years into the marriage, he proclaimed that he was going to join this strange “church” called the Restored Church of God. He had been reading their garbage online and had convinced himself that this was the “one true church.” Over the next few years, he proved that he was unable to separate truth from fantasy by listening to those crazy sermons almost nonstop.
From that day on, my life and my marriage have been pretty much taken over by RCG. They demand money we don’t have, they insist that he attend their “church services” every Saturday (no vacations), and they demand that he attend their feast every fall. My husband has given them thousands of dollars, and every year this feast puts us further in debt. He decided he wanted to retire at 62, and he gives RCG every dime of his Social Security, leaving me to work and pay all the bills. No holidays can be celebrated because of this “church,” so he has alienated his family and mine.
He believes now that everyone else besides himself and his “church” friends is stupid (including me), and he has no problem calling every woman not in his “church” a whore (including me). It is impossible to have a conversation with him without listening to his “church” nonsense. He openly degrades everyone not from his “church” and picks apart everything he hears to make it comply with the obscene sermons of that madman, David Pack.
He has always been gullible, but the people at this “church” feed his ego and pick his pocket every chance they get.
RCG is all about the money, and they want to isolate everyone so that all they have is their horrible cult. –[name withheld]
