The description further states:

”As her church grew across the nation, so did her iron-fisted grip as its leader—accumulating power and money, while creating a larger-than-life public persona with dramatically teased and towering hair.”
The synopsis concludes:

”At the peak of her power and influence, Gwen demanded that church members alienate themselves from anyone who was not a member, banished those that became overweight, threatened legal action against dissenters, and advocated for strict punishment of those who failed to follow church tenets.”

  1. Only death ended alleged cult leader Gwen Shamblin.s dictatorial and destructive rule over Remnant Fellowship. Her corrosive influence often isolated her followers from their families and old friends. There were no meaningful boundaries to her dictates.
