""my brother Luke, my my youngest brother left the church last year and um and in talking to him like he's the first person in my life in quite a while who referenced the Bible like even in his own mind as commonly um as I do and as frequently.""

Megan Phelps-Roper says her youngest brother, Luke, left Westboro Baptist Church last year. She adds that speaking with him has been unusual for her because he is the first person in her life in some time who naturally references biblical stories and language as frequently as she does.
