Description
People still argue about what Little Bethlehem really was.
Some call it holy ground. Others call it a cult.
I grew up inside the story.
Little Bethlehem: Cult or Culture? is a documentary-style podcast from The Paragonia Project, told by the granddaughter of the man who started it all.
In the 1960s, a southern preacher named George Leon Pike Sr. led his family and followers to a quiet stretch of land in Monroe, Georgia. What they built inspired devotion, loyalty, and deep suspicion. Some found refuge there. Others walked away with questions that never fully settled. The rumors never stopped
