With immense pressure being one of the sons of the FLDS prophet Warren Jeffs, Ammon would do anything to earn the approval of his father. When he was finally “worthy enough” to be called to the holy land (YFZ Ranch in Texas), he was worked up to 22 hours per day doing hard labor for the church. Assuming Warren truly spoke for God, when he prophesied that the government wanted to come take away the chiIdren, the people were only further convinced he was a prophet considering the 300 police who did just that. Ammon explains how the raid was traumatic for all involved and what it was that finally opened his eyes to who his father really was. \n\nConnect with Ammon!\nIG @ammonjeffs\n\nAmmon’s Book Texas Raid\n\nIf you or someone you love has left polygamy and needs assistance, please reach out to \"Holding Out HELP\" at 801-548-3492 or visit their website at www.holdingouthelp.org
