Erika Lynn (shelf.inspiration) asked Chelsea Bieker:

I LOVED Godshot. How did you come up with the practices, rituals, and rules of the cult? It seemed so fleshed out and realistically eerie.

Chelsea Bieker Thank you so much for reading! I was really interested in the Children of God cult for a long time, namely their literature and the way they exploited women to gain converts. I also was inspired by various healing churches who claim physical manifestations of God.
