Wayne D. Arnett, Redding, California: The Foundation for Apologetic Information & Research (FAIR) and Scholarly & Historical Information Exchange for Latter-Day Saints (SHIELDS), 2003, 3.5×8.25″ Reference Guide, 48 pages. ISBN: 1893036065
This easy reference guide will fit perfectly into your vest pocket or purse. Defending is directed towards those who:
- are truly interested in the basic history and tenets of The Church of Jesus Christ. In particular, it is for those whose previous exposure to the LDS faith has been by way of so-called “anti-Mormon” criticisms.
- have a sincere desire to investigate the restored gospel of Jesus Christ by prayerful study, but have insufficient background to readily rebut “anti-Mormon” claims.
- are members of the faith seeking help in addressing questions, concerns and criticisms posed by acquaintances, friends and loved ones.
- proclaim and perpetrate criticisms of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
