What Christian Leaders Say about Paul Carden's 6-Session series "Christians need to know what they believe and why. They also need good advice on sharing the Gospel with people from other religions. Paul Carden's Christianity, Cults & Religions DVD does the best job I have seen for fulfilling these crucial needs in the church today."
Dr. Norman Geisler, Author and Distinguished Professor of Apologetics, Veritas Evangelical Seminary
This 6-session DVD is for small groups that wish to know more about the differences between various religions and cult groups, from a Christian perspective. It can be used by itself, but is most effective when used with the leader guide, participant guide, fold-out comparison chart Christianity, Cults & Religions pamphlet, and Rose Bible Basics: Christianity, Cults & Religions handbook shown below.
This leader pack includes the six 30-40 minute video sessions, a PDF of the Leader Guide which may be printed out, and the PDF files for posters, fliers, handouts, bulletin inserts, and banners. Participant guides are purchased separately.

"Paul Carden is extremely knowledgeable and easy-to-understand. The first session gives a well-grounded Biblical basis for a study of this nature and Carden gives ample reasoning for why Christians today need to go through a study of this nature."
Stevan Sheets Shippensburg, pastor of the Shippensburg First Wesleyan Church,PA
Reviews
Review by: Ron Rhodes, Reasoning from the Scriptures Ministries - April 4, 2010
Having worked with Paul Carden for years — including as long-time colleagues on the popular Bible Answer Man radio broadcast — I can say without reservation that there is no one better qualified to oversee the production of Christianity, Cults, & Religions. His research is first-rate, and his ability to sift the most important facts from a mountain of cult data will no doubt be appreciated by the many readers of this fine publication. Ron Rhodes, President of Reasoning from the Scriptures Ministries
Review by: Ron Rhodes, Reasoning from the Scriptures Ministries - April 4, 2010
In over three decades of cult studies, I’ve never encountered a guide on the cults and false religions as concise as this one. In a day of information-overload, this helpful guide clearly distinguishes the truth of Christianity from the counterfeits. I recommend it highly. Ron Rhodes, President of Reasoning from the Scriptures Ministries
Review by: Edmond Gruss, The Master's College, Santa Clarita, CA - April 12, 2010
General editor Paul Carden has once again produced a very helpful pamphlet in this expanded and revised edition. People often wonder or ask how various cults and religions originated and what they believe. This provides a concise and accurate summary of their founders, their key beliefs, and how these differ from biblical Christianity, as well as other pertinent information. The material is easy to read and to understand. I recommend this valuable resource to Christian bookstores, pastors, and to Christians of every age. My teenage grandson reviewed the material and stated, “It's very important for all believers to understand how biblical Christianity differs from cults and world religions. It really opened my eyes to these other beliefs.”

belief system considered include: founder, date, location, teachings
on God, Jesus, salvation, death, key writings, other beliefs, and
distinctive practices.
The news regarding the 7th edition centers on a fresh DVD-based
