Summary
Amber Johnson shares her harrowing experiences within the New Beginnings Girls Academy that once called Pace, Florida it's home. After attempting suicide, she was sent to the school, locked away in isolation, taken off her anti-depressants and given no permission to speak.
Just one year later – and with no prior religious background – she was so scared of hell and judgement that she stayed at the school even after her 18th birthday, fearing that she would fall away into sin once she left.
Amber charts her tragic journey and her final days within the IFB... attending Hyles-Anderson College during the time that Pastor Jack Schaap was arrested for a sexual relationship with a minor.
