Defining a cult isn't always as easy as it seems. Whether we're talking about Waco, In-n-Out Burger, or your local dentist, there are questions that we can ask to get us closer to identifying a New Religious Movement. Josh leads us through a discussion of common misconceptions, the difference between a "cult of personality" and a true NRM, and some critical thinking exercises to help us assess groups from the inside and out.
