Casting Out chronicles the author's entry as boy, progression through and eventual exit, as an adult, from the Pentecostal world. It's an attempt to reconcile the evidence-based reasoning of the speaker's present with the angels and demons of his past. This collection confronts what it means to be loved in a system that the speaker now finds not only irrational but hateful. The poems address the struggle to raise children in the absence of spiritual beliefs and contemplate the questions of whether imparting secular values is enough of a foundation, and how much should a child ― even if it is back towards the religious tradition the speaker has left behind ― be permitted to find her/his own path.
