A Good Boy: Outliving The Legion Of Christ

Kevin spent seven years inside the most secretive Catholic organisation of our time: The Legionaries of Christ. He thought he was going to spread love and compassion - he ended up among disinformation and lies. He fled to save his sanity.This is the story of how he found, and then lost, his religion, and how he lost, and then found, his sexuality.Follow Kevin as the goodwill of his quest turns into a struggle to survive in an organisation founded and led by the most deceptive Catholic priest of our time, Marcial Maciel. On the way, the young teenager clings to what his mother has taught him: to be a good boy. The journey brings him face to face with difficult truths about his sexuality, and ultimately to a far deeper knowledge of himself, as he finds out who he doesn't want to be.This book, full of hope, is about discovering what matters to each of us. It places Kevin's story in a much wider and life-enriching narrative than the secrecy and the strictures of the religious life.
