FEEDBACK:
New Tool Kit arriving in February
This month we are releasing The Apologist's Tool Kit 3rd Edition, a 485-page resource for personal or group study. This easy-to-read reference addresses some of the most commonly challenged Christian doctrines, from the existence of God to the authority of Scripture.

Each chapter concludes with probing questions, talking points, and references for deeper study. Available in print and Kindle editions. 

Check here for status and more information.

What is the New World Translation?
Jehovah's Witnesses regard the New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures as "an accurate, easy-to-read translation of the Bible." What many don't realize is that the five translators of the original 1961 version knew little or no Hebrew or Greek. 

Revisions in 1984 and 2013 have not improved the translation. This means the Watch Tower's official version is incredibly biased. In this article, we provide specific examples.

Common threads in world religions
The false idea that all religions are essentially the same is as old as religion itself. Even today, the "all religions are one" mantra reverberates throughout our relativistic culture.

In his best-selling book God is Not One, Stephen Prothero distinguishes the beliefs of eight major world religions and yet helps us discover four common threads.
