Thank all of you who have responded and have been praying for our family!

Our daughter has been indoctrinated with Lee's ideas for over a year now. I am sad to admit that my husband and I were not diligent in our questioning because we were just excited about her zeal for "pursuing the Lord". We did warn her numerous times about reading the same author and expressed our concern with her Recovery Bible, but she assured us she was using multiple translations for study.

Her relationship with a particular family (especially the mother) has been hurting my heart for quite some time, but I misread my discernment for pride and jealousy. She says the woman is her best friend....talks to her late into the evening, numerous bible studies throughout the week and weekends, weekend trips.

We have seen and heard SO MANY of the things I have read on this forum....she refuses to admit the LC is like any other church as it recovered all of the truths that have been lost over the centuries. Calling on the Lord, waking up every morning at 5 or 6am(not a bad thing) to study, studying at lunch at work, reading nightly over the phone. She says her life us just too busy and she can't fit it all in(she lives with us and works, and does LC....that's it). I have told her that Jesus says His burden is light....it shouldn't be this hard to love & follow Christ. Despite her intense study she insists she knows nothing about the Bible and needs FTTA to "increase her portion". We have always been a practicing Christian family as have our parents....our daughter continually tells me that she doesn't know even some if the most basic spiritual truths even though her older and younger siblings say, "we HAVE INDEED been taught these".

So many red flags....oh how I wish we would have interfered last year!

Thank you for your continued prayers!
Merry & blessed Christmas to all!
