Heaven by Attrition

I became a magazine-carrying, door knocking Jehovah's Witness for 15 years and took my children along for the ride.
This is the true story of Debbie Sorrentino's journey from a Jewish upbringing, to a true desire to understand the significance of Jesus Christ, and the detour that led her behind the doors of the Kingdom Hall and into the Jehovah's Witness culture.

After Sorrentino walked out of their “Kangaroo Court” a victor, it would be eighteen years before she could extricate herself from the indoctrinated belief structure of the Jehovah's Witnesses. Then she enters a church and much to her surprise, she becomes a born-again Christian. Through experience, research, scriptures and hard work, she goes on to bear witness to the fact that she did not walk out of a Christian religion, she walked out of a cult.

Heaven by Attrition goes beyond the Kingdom Hall experience and the nightmarish end to the author's association with the Jehovah's Witnesses. It is a story that travels full circle—from the long-held and heart-felt quest that began when Debbie Sorrentino was a young Jewish girl, to the woman who finally finds what she spent decades seeking.
