The Bible passage "The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man" from Deuteronomy means another life change for Cody: the child of the serpent-handling faith who continues suffering from a horrid abuse case. With a real-life monster behind bars, Cody now tunes into his father's shepherding style, the beloved preacher from Middlesboro who leads the family church. Cody decides to pursue a friendship with his father.

5. "Nothing Left to Lose"

Cody Coots, fourth-generation serpent handler, has an unusual childhood. By age 6, he's already handling mock serpents with his sister, Trina. They use leather belts as props. It makes him yearn for a normal childhood. 

He just wants to ride his bike, practice drums on pots and pans, and watch professional wrestling with his father, Jamie - the world's most famous serpent-handling preacher. But after a terrible act of evil devastates Cody at 8 years old, leaving his innocence in tatters, he turns his wrath upon his parents, his church, his God – and even himself.
