Episode 177: Remembering Waco: Former Branch Davidian Robert Scott Interview 30 Years Later

TWO FREE BOOKS - Take advantage of the special offer mentioned at the end of this episode: Watchman.org/WacoThirty years ago this week, a small army of federal agents stormed the compound of the Branch Davidian cult led by David Koresh with armored vehicles, knocking down walls and launching tear gas. That deadly assault outside of Waco, Texas was the culmination of a 51-day standoff between government agents, four of whom were killed in the line of duty, and the Davidians. The assault ended horrifically when a tragic fire quickly consumed the compound and claimed the lives of over 80 Davidians, including 26 children.This week, for the first time ever in podcast format, we are releasing James Walker's 2018 interview with Robert Scott, a Branch Davidian we helped break free from David Koresh's influence just months before the gruesome fire. Robert, author of the book Branch on Fire, tells why he gave his life to David Koresh, what it was like to live at the Waco compound and how he broke free to dedicate his life to Jesus Christ as his messiah.ADDITIONAL RESOURCES: 2 Free Books: Request your free copies of Robert Scott's book Branch on Fire (PDF edition) and Alice Scott's book, The Incredible Power of Cults (Paperback and PDF editions): watchman.org/Waco Video: James Walker's Interview with current Branch Davidian and burn survivor Clive Doyle: watchman.org/Clive Video: James Walker's Interview with former Branch Davidian Robert Scott: watchman.org/Robert Watchman Fellowship Archives: Branch Davidian Theology Watchman Fellowship Archives: Branch Davidian History Watchman Fellowship's 4-page Profile on Seventh Day Adventism by Timothy Oliver: watchman.org/SDA Watchman Fellowship's 4-page Profile on Patterns in the Cults by James Walker: watchman.org/Patterns About James Walker: watchman.org/James FREE: We are also offering a free subscription to our bimonthly Profiles here: www.watchman.org/FreeSUPPORT: Help us create more content like this.
