In this update I want to spotlight a great ministry that everyone should become acquainted with.

For those at all interested in apologetics, in particular ministry to Mormons, Jim Spencer and "Through the Maze" is a terrific resource.

Jim is headquartered in Boise, Idaho. Coming from an LDS background, both Jim and his wife lived insideMormonism for many years. Since their dramatic conversion to biblical Christianity the Spencer's testimony of deliverance has been used mightily by the Lord to help countless people flee the deception of Mormonism.

A best-selling author, Jim's books, tapes and articles have been distributed worldwide. The scope of "Through the Maze" reaches far beyond Mormonism too as Jim regularly details the cults, occult and aberrant theological trends today. Besides his apologetics ministry, Jim's heart for souls is apparent as he clearly presents the truth of salvation through the Cross of Jesus Christ.

Since our mutual friend, Ed Decker of Saints Alive, introduced us in 1990 Jim and I have had the opportunity to become close friends ministering in conferences together and sharing a great friendship. Jim's care for Melanie and I and his input into our work has been an awesome encouragement and ministry to us. Through the years God has used Jim in my life as a source of steady inspiration sharpening me for the challenges presented in the field of apologetics.

It is a privilege and an honor to encourage you to visit the Though the Maze website. You will find it full of information and resources. While you are there let me strongly recommend that you email Jim and request a free packet of Jim's materials. Before long you'll see why Jim is regarded as one of the finest minds defending the faith today.
