Sample Book Insights:

#1 I was born a member of the only church on Earth whose congregation was going to heaven. I was taught from birth what happened to everyone who wasn’t. I loved to write down the torments of hell in my notebook, because that’s where my church said you were headed.

#2 I was taught from a young age that outside of the WBC, life was full of sin and corruption. I was afraid of what lurked beyond the walls my family had carefully constructed around me.

#3 The WBC picketed pride parades and LGBT-friendly organizations, and eventually began to target fallen soldiers’ funerals. They believed that America was doomed because of its support for and promotion of homosexuality.

#4 The world would loathe me for my religious beliefs, but being part of God’s elect didn’t make me immune from the terror of damnation. I was taught that to love each other and my family meant telling everyone God hates them, and that everyone else hated us for telling them that.
