What sucked me in here was the depiction of some very bizarre behavior as experienced from the inside, so that it all seems perfectly normal to the loonies doing it, even when it leads to cold-blooded murder.
The people here are, after all, devout Christians just doing their best to serve Lord Jesus. Even when it leads to adultery, lying, grinding others into the dirt, and, if it pleases Jesus, cold-blooded murder.
You probably have plenty of people just like these in your town. Heck, if you're in a red state, they're probably running your town, burning books, scheming to ruin the lives of perfect strangers, and otherwise staying busy while waiting for Lord Jesus to show up.
Perhaps you even have some of these people in your own family. Or...since the chances are 50-50 in America...maybe YOU are one of them.
Heaven help us.
