Synopsis

The Devil’s greatest trick was convincing the world that he was god.

As a child, Jesse Baker followed all the rules. But when his father knocked him out in their backyard, everything changed. An obedient, purity ring wearing Christian boy in public became a foulmouthed, dirty-minded skeptic in a journal he filled with riotous anecdotes and sharp-witted observations about the strict, cult-like church that relentlessly bombarded him with fire and brimstone.

Nick Jackson wanted to be the next great American pastor, but his house on the sand crumbled around him when he learned his hero was a sexual deviant. He started a support group called Agnostics Anonymous across the street from a church Jesse torched a decade before.

In this coming-of-age novel that weaves a tangled web of power, abuse, tragedy and heartbreak, a harmless Christian school rebel evolves into the devil incarnate.

Hilarious, honest, and haunting, Institutionalized is a raw depiction of the dangers of a legalistic religious culture gone wrong. These images will stick with you long after you put it down.

"No one should read this filth." — J.T. Langhorne's old IFB youth pastor
