#34 Tom Tilley on how he left his hardline, tongue speaking church

Religion presents a singular view of the world and asks you to believe in it. Journalism presents many world views and wants you to arrive at the truth independently.Tom Tilley is someone who's born out of the tension between these two. You might know him as the former longtime host of triple j's 'Hack', a youth journalism program. He's someone who can speak to people from all walks of life, particularly in the regions. Tom grew up in Mudgee, raised in a 'hardline' Pentecostal church with his mother and pastor father, alongside his three younger brothers. After rebelling against the church in his twenties, he's since lived many lives.  Tom kept his Pentecostal upbringing very separate from his journalism career, but now he details this in his memoir, Speaking In Tongues. ____________Follow Mark Bouris on Instagram, LinkedIn & YouTube.Want to grow your business and stay ahead of the pack? Access Mark Bouris' Masterclasses.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
