On cross examination, Hensley asked Cooper about a waiver the WOFF asks members to sign. Cooper admitted she signed one and included her children's names on the bottom of the waiver.

The waiver is a four page document in which the church member agrees not to sue the WOFF if they fail to have their souls saved. It also includes a passage that the practices at the WOFF are not mind control.

Key passages of the waiver read as follows:

"That no guarantee or warranty of any kind is made to releasor of to any other pray that demons or devils will be cast out; that their bodies will be healed; that their souls will be saved or that their mental and/or emotional condition will be cured ... I also waive my right of any action for money damages resulting from so called spiritual, mental, financial, emotional, physical, social, or loss suffered as a result of any ministry given me ... I understand that in some spiritual atmospheres there may be some mind control involved, however, after witnessing the ministry and atmosphere of the Word of Faith Fellowship, Inc., I believe that the pastors and other persons connected with the Word of Faith Fellowship, Inc. do not operate in mind control.

The Word of Faith Fellowship is a cult of Christianity:
