Summary

"A mixture of intrigue, confusion, and fear dotted my early introduction to religion.

Which begs the question: Why in the world did I...Joe Dasch...a truly accomplished sinner with ambitions to conquer corporate giants, take a job working for a church?

I mostly blame Pastor Jake." (Joe Dasch, excerpt from The Church Worker)

Joe always felt out of place in the world of spirituality, especially among Christians. As a child, they told him to “rebuke the devil” and “beware the fires of eternal damnation”. He peed his pants, got 'saved", then ran away from organized religion.

Thanks to the Backstreet Boys and a persistent pastor, Joe finds himself years later enveloped in the mysterious world of God worshippers once again. As he peeks behind the curtain, he discovers just how bonkers things can get when regular human beings try to operate a divine organization.

A raw and honest expedition, Joe’s story is complex, transformative, and more often than not, pretty damned hilarious.
