E67: Jehovah's Witnesses w/ Lloyd Evans and Sherrie D'Souza - RfRx Religion Series

In our very first RfRx Religion Series session, Lloyd Evans and Sherrie D’Souza will discuss their experiences in the Jehovah's Witnesses (JW) and how they left religion. They cover the JW belief system, how Watchtower works, and what challenges people face when leaving the religion.

Lloyd Evans is the founder and senior editor of http//:JWsurvey.org - a website that promotes freeness of thought among Jehovah's Witnesses. He is also author of "The Reluctant Apostate," a book that chronicles his experiences growing up as a JW and his journey to freedom from Watchtower indoctrination. His @John Cedars YouTube channel hosts a range of videos aimed at dissecting the various teachings of Jehovah's Witnesses, as well as new developments in the religion.
