Pauperized My Broken Cross: My Childhood in a Cult

William Smith grew up in a cult. He and others suffered sexual, verbal and mental abuse at the hands of the cult members. He dedicates this book to the children who were, and still are, victims of cults. It is especially dedicated those who now travel the same path of abuse and misery that his companions and he did on a daily basis.

This book includes many stories of the abuses and cruelty the author endured as a member of the cult he grew up in. The names have been changed to protect both the innocent and the not-so-innocent.

It is the author's hope that this book will give comfort to the broken-hearted, offer hope to the hopeless and give strength, courage and faith to you so that you may conquer your own battles of despair, sorry and anxiety. There is hope.
