The legacy of Remnant Fellowship, as Michael S. Black has been sharing, is that it has become a demonic haunt of unclean birds as vividly depicted by he and Steve Lomas for his FallenChurch.com site in this graphic. It is a congregation of vicious pecking orders. false teaching, and abusive socialization all under the gleeful control of Elizabeth Kauffman, his sister and heir apparent to their late mother.

In this concluding episode to our Spiritwatch conversations, Michael shares with us how he exited the cultic movement, his personal and ongoing transition out of a lifetime of cultism and a razor sharp retrospective on the future of Remnant 2.0 as he puts it. This is an illuminating episode of over 2 hours length. If you are a victim of the deceptions of Remnant, confidential and compassionate sharing and counsel are available.

Our ongoing conversation with Michael S. Black now proceeds into sharing about the darkest days yet in his life and those of the cultic Remnant Fellowship church created by Gwen Shamblin Lara, Aware of an upcoming HBO Max documentary on their sect and pursuing a new political passion leading them to more gullible souls, Gwen, Joe and their retinue instead met their Maker beneath six feet of water in Percy Priest Lake after a 300 plus mph entrance on May 29 2021.

An event no one expected, the crash of their jet sent shock waves throughout the Remnant culture which Michael tried to ride for the good of all, only to realize what a futile juggling act it had become.

During 2018 and beyond, the years that changed everything in the Remnant Fellowship cult, Michael did his best to weather the firestorms of transformation which Gwen Shamblin Lara had been stoking for years. Her marital missteps became her cues for stoking a Remnant congregational conflagration as she socially reengineered the Remnant culture to an unimaginable degree. Our conversation is a gripping look into their nose-down descent into an authoritarian anarchy.

Michael's painful narrative continues as life in the Remnant Fellowship cult continued to pile a lot on his plate. Then in 2017, everything changed: when Gwen Met Joe. Her carnal deviance into her libidinous self-delusion and how it escalated the already heightened megalomania and religious abuse of the movement is unsparingly recounted here.

We continue our discussion with Michael S. Black as he continues a painful reverie of how his time in Remnant Fellowship became completely orchestrated by his mother Gwen Shamblin Lara. He recounts how Gwen's connection with reality began to be lost as she became what she preached against, and how the encroaching socialization within the cult further poisoned the lives of his sister Elizabeth and father David.

Michael S Black's conversations with Reverend Rafael Martinez continue about how life in the hothouse of the Remnant Fellowship inner circle of cultic leadership became a gilded cage he fought in vain to escape. A 90 minute episode, it traces one of the darkest fields of brokenness Michael was compelled to cross.

Michael S. Black continues his unflinching retrospective look back at his time as a leader of the Remnant Fellowship cult founded by his late mother, Gwen Shamblin Lara. As the movement's social boundaries hardened by self-deceptive excess and inner immorality, Michael's struggles to know the difference between right and wrong intensified.

Our conversation with Michael S. Black continues, as he shared how, from a place of privilege respected by thousands as a leader of the Remnant Fellowship cult, the cracks in the walls of the New Jerusalem became impossible to ignore. His disillusionment with the hypocrisy, abuse and exploitation of those within his movement became a cognitive dissonance he could not ignore any longer.
