Episode 185 – It’s Too Bad, So Wrong, So Long – Jason is shunned by Jehovah’s Witnesses

shunned

Jason describes his life like a cult version of the Nickleback song Too Bad and the accompanying video. The house was a bad day away from being condemned. Home was a place where his parents hated each other. His dad had an affair, got disfellowshipped, and took off. Mom was working at a cafe. Jason had to go fend for himself, and eventually his 15 year old brother was shipped off to stay with him. This is Jason’s story of waking up and leaving Jehovah’s Witnesses and changing his life for himself and his own family today.
