NPR report: Lambert 'took care' of church's women

With all due respect to the work that has been done in the local media, primarily by KODE and the Joplin Globe in regard to the McDonald County cult case, the most thorough study into the scandal that has been the series offered this week by National Public Radio's Doualy Xaykaothao.
Ms. Zaykaothao landed the first interview with Rev. Raymond Lambert, who is charged with eight felony sex counts in connection with ritual sex with children. She also has provided more information through interviews with former members of the Grand Valley Independent Baptist Church about the practices of the church and Lambert's beliefs.
The latest chapter is particularly chilling.

(One woman) recalls what Raymond Lambert said at the meetings: "He just told everybody that he had sex with Peggy and he had sex with Sandy and he had sex with Laura. And he would have sex with us, too, if that's what we needed to keep our souls."
Kevin Amey adds: "He said during the meeting that sex was a man's desire and a woman's need, and that a woman needed to be kept by a man of God. A woman needed to be taken care of sexually."

The report continues:

Kevin Amey says Raymond Lambert turned to some women in the church and asked them, "Did your dad ever take you into the woods and touch you sexually?"
"And he made them answer, and the answers were 'yes,'" Kevin Amey says.
According to (one woman), this is what Raymond Lambert said at one of the meetings: "He told my brother, who has three young daughters, he said, 'David,' he said, 'you're not man enough to go upstairs and f--- your daughters, are you?' And he said, 'No, I wouldn't want to.' And he said, 'Well, I am.'"
