Season 2 - Episode 10
Christy Lynne Wood spent her teens and early twenties in a Christian cult, but Jesus found her anyway. More than twenty years later, Christy continues to pick apart legalism, twisted Scripture, and lies in a search for the truth. As a speaker, podcaster, writer, and author of Religious Rebels: Finding Jesus in the Awkward Middle Way of Grace and Truth, she is passionate about helping people to find a genuine relationship with Jesus. Christy lives in West Michigan with her wonderfully-opposite husband and their two children.
Details and tickets for Sons of Patriarchy in Moscow go live on August 4!
