A memoir of leaving the Evangelical church, reckoning with religious trauma while also interrogating just how much Evangelicalism has and continues to affect all Americans--via our power structures and pop culture--and how it drives our democracy towards fascism.
Jeanna Kadlec was a devout Evangelical and the wife of a pastor's son before she came to the double realization that she was queer and that she had to leave the church in order to survive. This is a memoir of growing up Evangelical--of indoctrination, family, and working poor middle America--and a sharp critique of how the tenets of conservative Christianity have built our power structures and political systems, in addition to how they've shaped our culture and our daily interactions with each other.
