There are three main areas of teaching that we focus on:1. Teaching accurate theology based on exegeting the text of the Bible and confronting false teachings which spread so quickly and easily in a biblically unaware world. This is done both topically and systematically teaching the Bible. 2. Defending the biblical-Christian worldview and answering skeptics. This is done both through topical videos and as issues arise in the text of a verse by verse teaching. 3. Applying the Bible so that we can become true followers of Jesus in not only thinking right but living right. God's word has more to say about how we are to live than most people realize - this ministry hopes to show people the vast riches of the Bible which is a lamp to our feet and a light to our path. 4 2 3 9 150233 74372 728214 653045 0 0 130554 150233 858768 803278 44000 0 300182 321462 0 16792 115597 109535 415779 474997 442989 328281 1218242 1546523 0 1218242 1546523 Bible Thinker, Inc is a ministry dedicated to equipping people to think and live biblically.

In prior generations it would have been impossible to freely distribute Christian video content into people's hands and across the world like this. It is truly a remarkable time. The Women in Ministry series is having a much greater impact than anticipated, among both churches and scholars. It's truly helping many to think biblically about this issue and untangle it from their own culture and far too much misinformation.
