Levin has published two books. The first, People In Glass Houses, is an exposé of the Hillsong Church, in which Levin was raised.[4][2] It was short-listed for the 2007 Walkley Non-fiction Book Award.[5] The second book, Crimwife, is about her relationship with a criminal.[6] She is also the host of the 2021 podcast Leaving Hillsong, which interviews people who have left the Hillsong Church,[7] and also Reading Hillsong, also released in 2021.[8]


Arrest


On 1 July 2015, Levin was arrested for trespass during an interview, after failing to "move on" from Hillsong Conference in Sydney Olympic Park at the direction of police.[9] The arrest came amid increased media scrutiny of the conference, after organisers misled the media about the involvement of Mark Driscoll.[10] According to Levin, she was convicted but on appeal "the findings were upheld, but the convictions were dismissed."[11]
