"With engaging and conversational prose, Amodeo offers us a compelling look at the world of youth missions that is taking aim, not just at the hearts and minds of young people in America and abroad, but at liberalism, equality, and democracy itself."--Katherine Stewart "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? 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
