Adam Van Wirdum - who recently appeared on the Four Corners special in Australia: Bearing Witness - sits down to chat with me about his experience as a closeted gay man among Jehovah's Witnesses. After getting married and having children, but still being told he's not doing enough, he finally reaches a breaking point for his faith.
