Leaving Hillsong

When Troy's older brother, Peter, started attending Hillsong, Troy kept quiet. But when his 'trance' like state became more concerning, Troy tagged along.

This fascinating tale of two brothers and their strong bond is continued in this episode.

Come chat as we find out how he managed to get Peter out.. and what life's like now!
