The Hutterites have withdrawn themselves from society to live communally in their secluded farming communities. Their colonies dot the landscape throughout middle and western Canada, and upper Midwest and northwest United States. The Amish, Mennonites, and Hutterites all came from the Anabaptist movement and consider themselves spiritual cousins. Unlike the Amish, the Hutterites openly embrace the very latest of mechanical and electronic technology, while claiming to be thoroughly separated from the world and all its ways. This is a true story of nine courageous people who escaped the rigors of religiosity within a system in which they were born and raised. Choosing life outside of the colony cost them the future of family ties and the places they once called home. They were soon confronted with unimaginable obstacles as they were thrust into the 'English world'. Each of the Nine pen their own personal account of how they found freedom from the system which held them in bondage. Boldly, they expose the lies and deceptions they were raised to believe and proclaim the truth which sets men free.

The Nine were between the ages of 17 and 25 when they each made the individual choice to obey the Lord’s calling and leave the socialistic, communal Hutterite society. Glenda, Jason, and Titus left a colony in North Dakota. Cindy, Rodney, Junia, Karen, Darlene, and Sheryl left a colony in Manitoba, Canada. They share their personal stories in their first book, “Hutterites” Our Story To Freedom. With their second book, Since We Told The Truth, The Nine are committed to raise awareness of truths that offer solutions to those challenges currently shaping our social and political landscape.
