Thousands have read the headlines. Few know the inside story.

What happens when religion and power collide in the wrong hands? At Grenville Christian College, once one of Canada’s most prestigious private religious schools, the result was thousands of broken lives.

Born and Razed recounts the gripping and deeply personal journey of Beth Granger, whose life began at Grenville, where her parents were teachers. The picturesque campus on the banks of the St. Lawrence River masked a dark reality: behind its idyllic facade lay a world of strict control, religious zealotry, and emotional abuse.

Beth endured emotional torment under the guise of religious instruction. Her path to freedom began with an act of quiet rebellion—admitting the truth about the institution she had been conditioned to revere and setting her on a journey of healing, activism, and justice.
