Those who had not discovered our truth had Satan in their hearts.
We lived amongst them, but not with them, 'in the world, but not of
the world'. We were special. We were the disciples of the
Fellowship. When she was a child, Lindsey Rosa's every waking
moment was governed by the rules of an extreme separatist sect. It
controlled what she wore and what she ate; it forbade her to listen
to music, to cut her hair, to watch television, to use a computer.
The Fellowship said her family was special. Why would she believe
otherwise? Then, when Lindsey was seven, her elder brother was
caught listening to music and the family were expelled from the
sect. But Lindsey's parents knew nothing but the ways of the
Fellowship, so they remained in hope that they would be accepted
and continued to make the family live by the sect's strict rules -
cutting themselves off from their local community. But as Lindsey
grew, so too did her awareness of a world outside. And, feeling
increasingly isolated, she struggled with her own identity. Until
finally she was faced with a devastating choice: to continue to
live by the rules of the religious sect or to be brutally cast out
and leave the family she loved behind forever.
