Not many people know Tom Tilley was raised in a Pentecostal Christian community....his father was a pastor.  The church expected him to live by a strict set of rules – and to one day speak in tongues.  As pressure grew on Tom to conform and commit, he started to question his faith and the community’s hold over his life. 

 

Tom’s book Speaking in Tongues is out today.  In this special two-part Briefing, Jan Fran sits down for a one-on-one chat with Tom about his life, the book and his future. 

 

When you no longer believe in eternity, every moment counts – Speaking in Tongues is a memoir of breaking free and reinvention.
