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.
