When you are a pastor’s son and all your favorite things come from sin and illegal activities, growing up in church can be full of lies, guilt, and betrayal. We follow our narrator as he fearlessly and relentlessly questions religion, family, fatherhood, and our very existence. From fake family to true friends and a return to a God, he faces the challenges of conviction, hypocrisy, abuse, and rejection all before stepping into his father’s shoes. After a life altering event leaves him abandoned by his faith, his family, and his church, he has to find out how to pull himself together without repeating his father’s mistakes. It’s THE ICE STORM meets PERKS OF BEING A WALLFLOWER. It has been studied by pastors, fathers, and beta readers to ensure a full and accurate picture of growing up in a pastor’s home. Beta readers and patrons have related to growing up in similar settings and not knowing others out in the world had the same questions and contradictions. Most felt that they had to walk away from their religion completely rather than speak up as this book does. Love God F Religion has awoken the spirits of its readers and allowed them to know that it’s ok to have and to ask questions about what they are being led to believe — no matter who is teaching them.
