Jehovah's Witnesses: History, Beliefs, and Customs


Listen Later

This week we dive into the history, beliefs, and customs of Jehovah's Witnesses. Going into this week of research, I didn't understand why the JWs I knew couldn't say the pledge of allegiance or celebrate their birthdays, and although I disagree, there is pretty solid logic to back up these decisions. We talk about the fascinating church history, the rejection of the Trinity doctrine, and the belief that their is no hell. Tune in for an episode that will challenge all your theological assumptions.
