<p>The&nbsp;<em>Field Guide on False Teaching</em> analyzes theological errors, cults, and world religions in order to equip you to defend your faith against the dangers of false teaching. It can help you response more effectively to friends, family, and neighbors with the hope you have in Christ.</p>
