At first, the Watchtower Society seemed harmless to William J. Schnell, even valuable as a way to develop his faith in God and pass it on to others. This book is Schnell's fascinating account of his involvement with the cult, which effectively enticed him in the 1920s and continues to lure countless individuals today. Readers will learn, as Schnell did, that the Jehovah's Witness religion he had joined was anything but innocent. For thirty years he was enslaved by one of the most totalitarian religions of our day, and his story of finally becoming free is riveting. Readers will be alerted to the inner machinations, methods, and doctrines of the Watchtower Society, arming them to forewarn others and witness to their Jehovah's Witness friends, relatives, neighbors, and the stranger at the door. With more than 300,000 copies sold, 30 Years a Watchtower Slave is truly one of the classic testimonies of freedom from a powerful cult.

Gabe is a teenage Jehovah’s Witness convinced God will kill him at Armageddon for masturbating. But Gabe’s not alone: there’s Peter, who writes swear words in the margins of his papers; Jihyun, the Korean kid who subsists on Ho Hos and Doritos; and Camille, who follows Gabe around, trying to be his girlfriend. There’s also Gabe’s mom, who sleeps sixteen hours a day, and his dad, an elder who decides the fate of sinners (like the married couple who confesses to accidentally having anal sex). There’s Brother Miller, an elder with a Napoleon complex, who accompanies Gabe from door to door, encouraging him to knock with confidence, and Sister Feeney, who looks forward to the day she can move into a Spanish-style house after its owner dies at the end of the world. Luckily for Gabe, there is Uncle Jeff, who used to tour with Santana and now gives Gabe the only valuable girl advice he ever receives. It's hard when school days are spent dodging questions about your weird religion and weekends mean preaching house to house. Life looks dreary until Gabe falls for Camille’s beautiful older sister and begins to see her as the answer to his frustrations.

"More kids are dying right now, in obedience to the Jehovah's Witness ban on blood transfusions, than perished in the fire at Waco", says ex-Witness David A. Reed. This former elder, now widely recognized as a prominent authority on the sect, recounts his thirteen years as a Witness. In this lively and engrossing book, drawing on his own experience as well as on extensive research, Reed explains his role in the Witnesses' door-to-door work recruiting new members and details an enforcement apparatus that reaches even into clinics and hospitals. He brings to light recent instructions for Witness hospital employees to turn over information from confidential patient records to the church; he also describes how the Watchtower hierarchy conducts bedside trials of members who accept forbidden medical treatments. This system extends to instructing parents to kidnap their children from hospital beds, and children themselves to resist doctors violently and to give false testimony in court. How can a major religion with headquarters in New York City and thirteen million attending its services worldwide quietly lead victims to early and needless deaths without a public outcry? Blood on the Altar tells an amazing story of how the Jehovah's Witnesses have grown into a huge financial and publishing empire with billions in assets. Reed takes us through a century of the sect's colorful history. He shows us how, combining a selective reading of scripture and bizarre "new truths" with aggressive recruitment techniques and mind control, the Witnesses have commanded an unquestioning loyalty among their followers.

Confessions of an EX-XJW was the title of a letter that Bishop Johnson sent to his fellow ex-Jehovah's witnesses (XJWs), in the "XJW Community," in February 2011. It stated that, after more than 35 years, he no longer identified as an "XJW." Yes, he still follows several XJW discussion groups, but not in any leadership role. In this book, Bishop Johnson shares his thoughts on some of the most current questions and topics of discussion, in the groups. He talks about "Organized Religion;" "JW Apostates;" "Memorial crashers;" "The TRUTH;" and other hot topics. It is a direct appeal to the XJW Community; but an insightful peek for everyone, into the drama that accompanies the lives of the many people who have come out of the Watchtower organization, either by choice or by expulsion.
