"Angels and demons. Heaven and Hell. Faith and doubt. Wolves in sheep's clothing. Cycles of abuse and control that cause us to deny our own intuition. HER EXODUS, a collection of dark poetry and prose, takes the reader through the four seasons of one woman's deconstruction journey. As a child, religion taught her to fear damnation and death. As an adolescent, religion taught her to be pure and perfect. As an adult, she recognized the corruption of the church and its leaders, and began asking questions. Follow along as she uncovers her truth. From hiding to healing. From faith to freedom. From needing a savior to saving herself.
""... a bold, brave confessional of her journey from a childhood of Catholicism, to young adulthood in an evangelical church, to finally breaking free from the binds of a toxic faith and finding her voice."" -Stephanie Parent, author of Every Poem a Potion, Every Song a Spell
""A visceral journey out of the hells religion can bring...
This is the only religious experience I care to have."" -Jessica McHugh, 2x Bram Stoker Award-nominated author of The Quiet Ways I Destroy You ""Visceral, haunting, and defiant, Her Exodus collection of deconstruction poetry is a light in the dark for anyone cast into the harrowing realm of religious trauma and uncertainty."" -Grace R. Reynolds, author of The Lies We Weave and Lady of The House"
