Cultish: Ground Zero Jonestown

Join us for the premiere episode of the much-anticipated new program from the creators at Apologia Studios: Ground Zero Jonestown. In this episode, our hosts play through some of the actual audio from the day of the largest mass-suicide in modern history. Over 900-lives were lost (over 300 were children) under the leadership of a very complicated and dangerous cult-leader.
Jim Jones was a confused and dangerous man. He started his work as a professing Christian and as a Christian minister. However, later in his life, he distanced himself from the Judeo-Christian faith and worldview and embraced and promoted a militant Communist and Socialist vision. Jones was known for his passionate pleas for a Communist vision of the world. He was a zealous and passionate speaker who used his abilities and perversion of the Christian bible to lead hundreds to drink poisonous Kool-Aid as an act of “revolutionary suicide”.
Listen-in as Jeremiah Roberts and Pastor Jeff Durbin talk through the worldview and history of one of the most compelling stories of abuse and manipulation in history.
