Confessions of a Jewish Cultbuster
Miriam and I would LOVE to invite you to Chabad of Clearwater's First Friday night dinner that will be held on Friday February 7th, at 5:45pm with noted Jewish Cult Buster Rabbi Shea Hecht of Brooklyn, NY will be making his first visit ever to Clearwater, Florida where he be the guest speaker at Chabad of Clearwater's Friday night dinner.
What is a cult? What kinds of people are involved in cults? What happens to people who join cults? Rabbi Hecht will answer those questions and share some of his hair-raising experiences, giving an insider’s glimpse at the warped cult lifestyle.
Hecht is the author of "Confessions of a Jewish Cultbuster" that revealed actual case histories of Jewish youngsters rescued from cults, deprogrammed and returned to their families. Originally published in 1985, Hecht has just re-released a completely revised and updated edition that contributes new stories while continuing the timeless message of the struggle of young Jews in search of identity amid a myriad of spiritual and emotional snares and smiling enemies. This honest, shocking, and challenging work arms every reader with a practical understanding of how to protect against soul snatchers.
Rabbi Shea Hecht is a member of a distinguished family of fourth generation American Jews, rabbis, and scholars. He is one of twelve children of the eminent Rabbi Jacob J. Hecht, ob”m, and Rebbitzen Chave Hecht. After several decades as a deprogrammer, Rabbi Shea broadened his focus to directing the multifaceted Jewish educational organization, N.C.F.J.E., and has become a major figure in the field of marriage and family counseling.
