"If you're in So. California, listen to Gretchen Goldsmith (Rose Publishing President) with Frank Pastore on KKLA 99.5 this Friday August 6th, from 4:30 - 5:00 PM. They will be broadcasting live from the Harvest Crusade at Angels Stadium. One of the topics is cultic groups that try to proselytize new believers right outside the doors of the Crusade."

Next month, Rose Publishing will release the brand new DVD-based small-group curriculum for Christianity, Cults & Religions. I'd like to share with you an exclusive preview of the content. Below is a sample of the teaching from the first session on what the Bible says about false religions.

June 2010

This colorful, fact-filled pamphlet compares 20 of the most controversial cultic groups and world religions with biblical Christianity.

What are the differences? Why do they matter?

From Sikhism to Seventh-day Adventism, from Jehovah’s Witnesses to Judaism, from the Nation of Islam to the New Age, Christianity, Cults and Religions will help you identify and understand the key beliefs of each.

› Check back soon for video clips from the upcoming DVD-based curriculum featuring CFAR’s executive director, Paul Carden. This product will be available August 2010—in time for your church’s Fall small groups!

We gave CFAR supporters an opportunity to review an advance copy of this product. Here's what they are saying:

"The pamphlet you graciously sent...is the best compendium of the cults I have seen. It is tremendously useful and something I wish I could have had in my years in the pastorate and as a military chaplain. Although we study the cults in Seminary it is hardly to our credit that we tend to forget the depth of the errors when we meet nice people who believe very bad things. Perhaps Mormonism is the best example. I was stationed with a Mormon chaplain who constantly wanted to share the pulpit with me. Although I resisted him and tried to tell him why, he was so nice, and appeared to be just like the rest of the 35 chaplains on the base…[so] the people of my congregation began to look on them as 'just like us.' Such a pamphlet as this would have been a great help..."

—Chaplain (Col) Phil Clark, USAF Ret

"Thanks for the advance copy as a donor. The new Christianity, Cults & Religions is an improvement over the original; it can easily be the textbook for long-time Christians, alongside those who are earnestly seeking the truth of God. The availability of a wall chart, a 200-slide [PowerPoint] presentation, and a DVD study guide makes it a 'must have' for serious teachers."

—Robert

"We received an advance copy of Christianity, Cults & Religions and were very impressed. The layout is easy to interpret and would be great for friends who are not sure of differences between religions and cults."

—Larry and Alma
