"How does a charming, insecure girl from a troubled family become an evangelist for a Christian fundamentalist movement that seeks to govern her every thought and action? Gloria Beth Amodeo's book, "God's Ex-Girlfriend," is a wry, poignant, and unflinchingly honest memoir that unveils the cult-like operations of Campus Crusade for Christ. Now known as "Cru," the "parachurch" has been a formidable component of the Religious Right's political infrastructure. Amodeo's account shows how she was drawn into the movement, and how she finally broke free of its control into a fulfilling new life. "-Anne Nelson, author, Shadow Network: Media, Money, and the Secret Hub of the Radical Right
