We're pulling back the curtain on the exclusive religious sect known as the Exclusive Brethren with our guest, Craig Hoyle, author of the new bestselling book "Excommunicated".

Raised in the unyielding grip of the Brethren, Craig exposes the generational trauma and unravels the intricacies of his deeply personal journey of self-discovery and acceptance within a rigid religious community. He shares the pangs of guilt surrounding his sexuality, the futile attempts at 'curing' him through prayer and exorcism, and his futile relocation to Australia.

But this is also a story of resilience, as he navigates the emotional maelstrom of coming out to his family, the devastating repercussions, and his eventual excommunication. 

This is a brutal, uncompromisingly intimate look into the aftermath of leaving an oppressive religious community. Craig's narrative illuminates his grueling experiences, and is a stark reminder of the dark underbelly of extreme religious beliefs, and the extraordinary courage it takes to break free and embrace one's true self.
