Hey everyone:
I was wondering what books you read that helped you wake up from the WT hypnosis.
I havent read all that many myself- but I know CoC is supposed to be a good one.
Thanks!

Soul Repair: Rebuilding Your Spiritual Life

I found reading the Watchtower and Awake! were adequate to convince me this is NOT God's spirit-directed organization.
Everything else just confirmed what I already suspected.
