Title: Sectarian Song: Cult Escapist
Author: Michael Klein
Sentence Description
Sectarian Song is the compelling and often horrifying true story of one man's lost childhood in one of the most controversial religious sects in modern American history, the Nation of Yahweh.
Short Description
From its shocking opening sentences, Sectarian Song provides a terrifying first-hand look at life inside a cult, in this instance the infamous Nation of Yahweh. Michael Klein (not the author's real name) joined this offshoot of the Black Hebrew Israelites at the age of eleven, when his mother brought him and his three siblings with her into the group. For two years, until he left at the age of thirteen, Klein suffered abuse at the hands of the zealot cult members, targeted for being a child of mixed race. Even after he escaped, Klein suffered a psychological toll, bouncing between foster homes and psychiatrists, spending years of his life looking over his shoulder, haunted by fear. Despite its grim, often violent early passages, Klein's tale becomes one of hope and faith, an uplifting lesson in the power of the human spirit.

Extended Description
Born to a black, teenaged mother, and a white father, Michael Klein had a tough New York childhood. Nonetheless, he was a quiet, sensitive, and observant child, whose young mother's search for love and security brought a string of men usually unsuitable and occasionally abusive into her children's lives.
Klein's mother thought she'd finally found the acceptance she was looking for in the Temple of Love, run by an extreme offshoot of the Black Hebrew Israelites who called themselves the Nation of Yahweh. Led by Yahweh ben Yahweh, whom the Temple members believed to be the son of God, the group publicly preached a code of love, peace, and acceptance. What Klein found in their midst, however, was a horrifying existence of abuse and racism, sins committed in the name of God. His memories of the beatings he endured at the hands of the temple elders are searing and disturbing, yet they are eclipsed by the heartbreaking rejection of the boy by his own mother.
For two years, Klein endured the torments of cult life, finally escaping with his half-brother Brian. The boys were taken in by Brian's biological father, who saw their physical scars and immediately sought medical treatment. The exposure led to a police raid on the Temple and the beginning of what would be a long legal battle. Although Klein escaped the cult with his life, the psychological wounds he suffered haunted him for years; he bounced in and out of foster homes and psychiatrist's offices, and his eventual marriage was doomed by his traumatic experiences.
Eventually, Klein was able to gain control of his memories, coming to grips with his painful past in order to move forward and live a productive life. His is a story of great suffering relieved by time, faith, and hope.
Back Cover Text
Americans tend to watch news stories about religious cults in disbelief, wondering about the people who squirrel themselves away on a remote mountaintop or in a South American jungle. Michael Klein's harrowing story of life in the Nation of Yahweh cult shatters that illusion of distance: the two years he spent as a child at the notorious "Temple of Love" were lived in New York. Brought to the Temple by his mother when he was eleven, the accounts of the abuse and racism he suffered there are hard to stomach. Even after his daring escape, his memories and lingering fear haunted his adolescence and early adulthood, even destroying his marriage. But while Sectarian Song is a story of a lost childhood, it is more importantly a story of hope, faith, and healing, as one man comes to terms with his painful past so that he may fully embrace the future.
Alternate Cover Text
"Here I felt like a shell of a man, with just a battered and damaged soul, but I knew I had to decide if I wanted to continue to live a lie and in darknessÖor, live a great life filled with the wonder and majesty of what life had to offer."
After years of therapy and a failed marriage, Michael Klein faced a hard truth: he could continue living under the yoke of his traumatic past, or he could begin a new life, fueled by hope and faith. He chose the latter, no easy task considering the horrific two years he spent as a virtual prisoner in the Temple of Love, run by the contemporary cult group the Nation of Yahweh. This offshoot of the Black Hebrew Israelites sect preached peace, love, and acceptance, yet privately they brainwashed members like Klein's mother, and severely punished those who did not fall in line. From the age of eleven to thirteen, when he escaped, the boy suffered horrific abuse by the Temple elders and, worst of all, rejection by his own mother.
By reliving his own vivid memories, from early childhood to his time at the Temple and his struggle to find peace as an adult, Klein (who writes under a pseudonym for fear of retaliation) has crafted a must-read for anyone seeking to reclaim a loved one from a sect or cult. Sectarian Song is a moving and inspiring example of the power of the human spirit to overcome the greatest of odds.
Author Biography

Sectarian Song: Cult Escapist
by Michael Klein
Reviewed by Don Bacue, Executive Editor
International Features Syndicate
Imagine a young boy, just barely into his teens, living in a world that is dysfunctional from its very core on out, only to discover that the abnormality of his reality was about to change forever. For the worse.
At 13, Michael Klein experienced just that.
Klein was born to a black mother and a white father, a successful Irish Jew whom his mother eventually fell out of love with and divorced. After a long and ever changing string of men in her life, Klein's mother remarried--this time, she wed a Jamaican-born hot-headed gadabout who turned out to be a wife beater and child abuser. Between the constant strife at home, a strained life at school, a marginal life in the ghetto, and being charged with caring for his siblings, Klein had no time to himself, no time to be a child, no time to grow up.
That's when his mother made the decision: She had found the Lord, the true Son of God. She found him not on her knees in the neighborhood church and not in the pages of the Holy Bible but on the face of a flyer that fell into her hands. The flyer featured the image of Yahweh Ben Yahweh, self-proclaimed black messiah whose role in life was to return the black race to the position of power and prominence it rightfully deserved. Finally, for the Klein family, everything would be well again once his mother left her husband and joined the mysterious Temple of Love.
That's the beginning of the story that leads the reader through some of the darkest and most insidious revelations imaginable. Through beatings and torture, physical and psychological subjugation, sexual abuse, and physical imprisonment, the temple leaders worked their way into the minds and lives of their followers--one of the most eager of whose turned out to be Klein's mother. Anxious for redemption, desperate to find a better way for herself and her children, she committed everything to the temple and ended up losing just as much and more.
As with all successful cults everywhere, the leaders of the Temple of Love learned early how to control, manipulate, and brainwash its new arrivals, and they wasted little time in stripping the Klein family's pride down to nothing. When young Mahmood, Klein's baby brother, failed to say "Praise Yaweh" at Elder Obadiah's command, switches were handed out to the congregation, who led the child off into a room to learn the meaning of obedience. The other children, hungry and aching for sustenance, were forced out into the streets of New York to beg for $10 apiece for the day's food. Six hours later, when Klein returned, he was horrified to find his brother still in the room. When the young boy finally emerged, Kiein couldn't believe the welt marks from the whips, "all over his body, from his neck down to his ankles."
The warning worked: the family quickly learned to fear--and obey--the Elders and Sisters of the Temple who wielded all the power.
Despite the fear, or perhaps because of it, Klein remained a keen observer, a challenger of the concepts being forced into the followers' minds--even if in subdued silence. As the days moved into months, he noticed that the newcomers entered not from a single socio-economic group, but from all walks of life. "The members consisted of professional football players, lawyers, and doctors. They all started believing [Yaweh Ben Yaweh] was truly God himself and would unselfishly give up their worldly possessions and freedom to be led by this man. They would do anything for him. They would even kill for him if he asked them to."
Little did young master Klein realize it at the time, but that is precisely what the cult leader would eventually charge them to do.
Sectarian Song: Cult Escapist is a hauntingly real memoir from someone who obviously experienced the worst that life--and its practitioners--has to offer. He tells his tale from the eyes and ears of a young teenaged boy still trapped in the horror, still struggling to this very day to survive outside the Temple in the real world.
To his benefit, Michael Klein--who is obviously not a professional writer nor even someone skilled in those most basic areas of the English language, in the teaching of which our schools and educational system are supposed to excel--recounts with truth and bravery everything that happened. Despite its mechanical weaknesses, the author's story shines through as genuine, touching, heartwarming, frightening, and eventually cautionary.
From his earliest years in the ghetto, through his tormented teens, to his eventual escape with his younger brother to safety (only after the intervention of a genuine Guardian Angel) and word that Jaweh Ben Jaweh and six of his disciples had been convicted in 1992 of conspiracy to commit murder in Federal District Court in Fort Lauderdale, Michael Klein tells a good, gripping, fast-moving story.
Sadly, it is all real.

From its shocking opening sentences, Sectarian Song provides a terrifying first-hand look at life inside a cult, in this instance the infamous Nation of Yahweh. Michael Klein (not the author's real name) joined this offshoot of the Black Hebrew Israelites at the age of eleven, when his mother brought him and his three siblings with her into the group. For two years, until he left at the age of thirteen, Klein suffered abuse at the hands of the zealot cult members, targeted for being a child of mixed race. Even after he escaped, Klein suffered a psychological toll, bouncing between foster homes and psychiatrists, spending years of his life looking over his shoulder, haunted by fear.
Despite its grim, often violent early passages, Klein's tale becomes one of hope and faith, an uplifting lesson in the power of the human spirit. Available Now on Amazon.com.

Sectarian Song: Cult Escapist - Reviews
"Absolutely incredible. The author is not the best writer in the world, but the story is so powerful, real and personal that it easily makes up for any lack of style or grammar; the book is completely engrossing, stunning and heartbreaking.
Best wishes to the author... I hope he finds the peace he seeks."
-Adrew Stankevich
"This story is told through the mind of a young lad named Michael. He starts the story about his life at a very young age and leads us through his years as a forced member of the Nation of Yahweh. Michael talks about the torture he, his brothers and sister experienced from the elders of the cult. We learn how the children were forced to go out and beg for money on the street, and what would happen to them if they did not bring in their allotment.
As you read this book you will experience the emotions of horror and hatred for the child abusers, to the hope of survival for the children as they find scraps of food and a possibility of escape. I hope that there will be a day when this type of story will happen only in fiction and never in reality."
-Rseifert
"In our world of technology and advancements, it is sometimes hard to envision mankind choosing to remain in the "dark ages". The "Sectarian Song" formally introduces the reader to those who would rather poison the minds and souls of its followers, than nurture growth or change. As a child, he along with his two brothers and one sister, we forced to join the "Nation of Yahweh" at the behest of their mother. They believed they were leaving a bad situation for a better life, only to discover that this "life" was really a well disguised hell on earth. This discovery was made almost daily by these poor children and the tyranny and battering they received was horrifying. Although author Michael Klein managed to physically escape the terror he was accosted by as a child, he is still haunted by the psychological effects today. His heroic effort to expose the many forms of abuse suffered by the members of the so called "Temple of Love" still shows the fear ingrained within his being, as he wrote this work under a pseudonym to protect himself. These many years later, with the leader "Yahweh Ben Yahweh", a self-proclaimed "messiah", dead and gone, his unfortunate legacy lives on within the survivors. Every step they make toward self-healing and acceptance, making them a step closer to sponging his stain from their souls.
For a look within the shadowed lives held by many cult victims, and the darkness that can seep from mankind's soul when led with hate instead of love, read this harrowing tale and aim to "make good" in the lives you touch."

"michael kleins oustanding thriller is back chilling and will leave you in complete awe on the way he was abused in this sickening yahweh cult as a child and how he learned to conquer his fear and stand up to the cult escaping and surviving. i highly recommend this book and hope it becomes a best seller.
-A. Grossi
"Wow! this story is creepy, scary and inspiring. Michael Klein (not his real name) was unlucky enough to find himself in a cult (thanks to his mother) the cult: the Nation of Yahweh.
I am so impressed by the courage Klein had in detailing his story. I would like to believe that his telling of his story has helped him a little bit more in his spiritual quest to be the person that he was robbed of in his youth.
The descriptions of abuse at the hands of this cult are absolutely horrendous. I cannot believe that anybody would actually tolerate their children being treated this way. The years Klein spent in this cult must have seemed absolutely endless to him. He talks bravely and with great emotion about all of the so scary aspects of any cult - it seems they do all have so many horrible things in common.
It is amazing to me that the author has managed to survive both his cult experience and the days following. Having bounced around for the remainder of his youth, Klein still managed to find his center and focused on that.
He is very clear, in his book about his fear of reprisal from the members of this cult, even today - he must live in fear and hiding, always looking behind him. Through the pages of his book, I found fear, abuse, more fear and a ray of hope. This is the focus of Klein's life and I find him inspirational."
