L. Ron Hubbard reportedly told a science fiction conference that the surest way to make a million dollars was to start a religion. In 1954, he did exactly that. In this episode, Andrea Schwartz tells her own story of being recruited into Scientology as a nineteen-year-old, spending a decade selling its lies to others, and the providential path God used to bring her out. She unpacks what the cult actually teaches about man, sin, and salvation, why intelligent people are its prime target, and how the absence of biblical foundations leaves any soul vulnerable to deception. A sober warning and a testimony to the sufficiency of Christ. Listen now. KEYWORDS/TAGS Scientology, L.
