Careful, sourced articles that read specific teachings against the full text of Scripture. Take your time, check every verse, and draw your own conclusions.
Now these Jews were more noble than those in Thessalonica; they received the word with all eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see if these things were so.
Many people have walked away from these groups and found their faith grew stronger. They read Scripture freely, worship in healthy churches, and walk closely with God.

It's amazing how much I didn't know, just hearing one thing. But now my walk with God is richer and no longer controlled by man.
In these high-control religious groups, the International Christian Church (ICC) and Restored Church Worldwide (RCW), you are kept very busy, and often there is little time left to stop and think. Questions can be treated as disunity, rebellion, or divisiveness, and you are expected simply to "trust" your leaders.
This site encourages the opposite. Slow down. Open the Bible for yourself. Read the verses before and after. Ask the hard questions. That is what the Bereans did, and Scripture calls them noble for it. We invite you to examine daily.
Our writers (good-hearted disciples) come from all walks of life and served in many different roles in these groups. Every article sets out teachings as they were taught, drawing on published sources and on their own experience. All of them write anonymously. That isn't about avoiding questions. It keeps the focus on what the Word says rather than on who is saying it. The goal is not to believe a person, but, like the Bereans, to examine the Scriptures to see whether what you've been taught is true.
