Our devotion to the Mormon Church kept us in poverty. And then we were criticized by the a** bishop. He called me into his office because my son wore a white shirt and tie but NOT a suit jacket to church. He came to our house and said "Well, if you like to live like this" because we were barely surviving. Since we left the cult our lives have steadily improved. But we will probably never catch up for the years we wasted. His comments were over twenty years ago but they still make me grimly filled with rage. Could tell many more bad stories about this bishop. He was a retired FBI agent and that was how he ran the ward. I remember taking boiled potatoes to work and eating it when no one was around because I was embarrassed. But we never turned down a calling or failed to pay tithing! God was just testing our faith! What a crock that was.
