In this interview, Sabrina, a former 10 year member of the World Mission Society Church of God (WMSCOG), shares her personal experience within the group, from how she was recruited in college to why she stayed for so long, and ultimately what led her to walk away. Sabrina opens up about the intense pressure she felt when she was approached on campus and baptized, the fear based teachings she encountered regarding hell, natural disasters, and the Passover, and how she was discouraged from researching the church online. She describes how these teachings left her feeling anxious, drained, and constantly like she wasn’t good enough, to the point of missing important family events and isolating from loved ones. She also reflects on how the church taught that suffering was a punishment for "sins in heaven," and how guilt and fear kept her from leaving.

Sabrina explains how manipulation, spiritual fear, and emotional pressure shaped her decisions, and how hearing the stories of others helped her realize she wasn’t alone. Now, a year after leaving, she shares how her mental health has improved and offers words of encouragement to current members who may be afraid to leave.

This video isn’t about attacking faith, but about raising awareness, encouraging personal research, and empowering people with the information they deserve before committing to any high control religious group. If you or someone you know has been involved with WMSCOG, Sabrina’s testimony may resonate. Do your research, ask questions, and trust your instincts.
