Getting Jefferson Right by Throckmorton and Coulter

Only $5 on kindle. Read the opposing view before leaping on the Barton bandwagon. It’s healthy to do a bit of research before having a knee jerk reaction.

That’s actually what I did when the whole controversy began. Our church showed Barton’s series on American history in adult Sunday School. Some of the obvious errors in the series really shocked me as I had heard so much positive about him. Then I started to do my own research and reluctantly had to conclude the critics were correct, even though I agreed with Barton’s main thesis.
