Jenna Miscavige Hill was raised to obey. As the niece of the
Church of Scientology s leader David Miscavige, she grew up at the
center of this highly controversial and powerful organization. But
at twenty-one, Jenna made a daring break, risking everything she
had ever known and loved to leave Scientology once and for all. Now
she speaks out about her life, the church, and her dramatic escape,
going deep inside a religion that, for decades, has been the
subject of fierce debate and speculation worldwide.
Piercing the veil of secrecy that has long shrouded the world of
Scientology, this insider reveals unprecedented firsthand knowledge
of the religion, its obscure rituals, and its mysterious leader
David Miscavige. From her prolonged separation from her parents as
a small child to being indoctrinated to serve the greater good of
the church, from her lack of personal freedoms to the organization
s emphasis on celebrity recruitment, Jenna goes behind the scenes
of Scientology s oppressive and alienating culture, detailing an
environment rooted in control in which the most devoted followers
often face the harshest punishments when they fall out of line.
Addressing some of the church s most notorious practices in
startling detail, she also describes a childhood of isolation and
neglect a childhood that, painful as it was, prepared her for a
tough life in the church s most devoted order, the Sea Org.
Despite this hardship, it is only when her family approaches
dissolution and her world begins to unravel that she is finally
able to see the patterns of stifling conformity and psychological
control that have ruled her life. Faced with a heartbreaking
choice, she mounts a courageous escape, but not before being put
through the ultimate test of family, faith, and love. At once
captivating and disturbing, "Beyond Belief" is an eye-opening
exploration of the limits of religion and the lengths to which one
woman went to break free."
