About this audiobook
If you truly want to grow in everything God made you to be, you owe it to yourself to read this book.
You joined your church because of its intensity for God. Like no other place, it’s helped you discover the meaning of obedience. If there’s one problem, it’s the confusion that sometimes comes from your own carnal thinking. But God has given you leaders who can lovingly correct a doubting, independent spirit and help you choose God’s best for your life. How can you go wrong with a church like that? Easily, because it fits the profile of many abusive churches.
Twisted Scriptures reveals in depth:
- how the Bible can be distorted in ways that rob you of the liberty Jesus died to give you
- the subtle but powerful techniques by which, in the name of truth, controlling leaders manipulate and intimidate countless believers
- tools for overcoming persuasive, deceptive teachings and practices.
Thousands of Christians have already moved from struggle to true freedom and hope through Twisted Scriptures. If you are hurting of feeling confused, this is the perfect book for you.
Accompanying checklists, tables, visuals, appendixes, and Bible verses are included in the audiobook companion PDF download.
