In this deeply moving episode of the Preacher Boys Podcast, I sit down with Bethany Joy Lenz—actress, singer, and New York Times bestselling author of Dinner for Vampires. Best known for her decade-long role on One Tree Hill, Bethany shares her extraordinary story of resilience, breaking free from a high-control Bible study-turned-cult, and finding healing after years of manipulation and abuse.

We dive into her new memoir, Dinner for Vampires, which unveils her secret double life: starring on one of TV's most beloved shows while enduring the suffocating grip of "The Big House Family." Bethany’s inspiring journey reveals how she reclaimed her autonomy and faith, offering profound lessons for anyone navigating life's darkest moments.

Topics We Cover:

– The hidden dangers of cults disguised as safe spaces

– How her evangelical upbringing made her susceptible to manipulation
