Blogs
- Governing Body Letters
Interesting but somewhat disorganized Blogger site hosted by “Theocratic Joker.” Awkward at times to navigate, this site has a ton of WT insider information and documents. Take a look.
Book Sites
- Nancy J. Sage
Site for “Going Undercover to Rescue My Daughter,” a-one-of-a-kind account of Nancy’s love and dedication to help her daughter escape from the JW cult. Her story stands out because she reinstated as a Witness after a ten-year absence to achieve her goal.. - Out of the Cocoon
Brenda Lee’s website dedicated to anyone who has experienced abuse, alcoholism, depression, or a parent’s rejection due to being raised in a cult. Lot’s of supporting material and ordering information. Her book has become a classic. - Richard E. Kelly
Personal site of the author of “Growing Up in Mama’s Club- a Childhood Perspective of Jehovah’s Witnesses,” his memoir of growing up in a Jehovah’s Witness family. Site includes additional background and ordering information. - Watchtower Books Store

Ex-JW Information
- Doc Bob's Jehovah's Witness Website
“Doc” Bob, a former JW pioneer and elder, left after 22 years when he found things about the Watchtower to be troublesome. He realized that JWs were not spiritual but organizational. Good site to rummage around in for odd new fact or two. - Free Minds
A great site with a long history. Former Jehovah’s Witness, Randall Watters, has dedicated a majority of his time to this great site since 1996. His latest version makes this a site that is well worth your support and regular visits. - JWFacts.com – Facts About Jehovah's Witnesses
Paul Grundy’s Australian based site. Contains a broad range of information, both from historical and theological viewpoints. Site design is a little overwhelming and outdated, but well worth the time and effort to visit and learn. - Six Screens of the Watchtower
Rick and Inez Fearon sponsor this unique site and moderate free weekend conference calls exposing Watchtower secrets and lies. Its visual presentation may make some new visitors a bit uncomfortable, but it provides quality documentation.
Forums & Support Groups
- Channel C
Channel C maintains a somewhat restricted membership and focused discussions. Good site for lurking and for general reading. Excellent panel of some prominent former JWs. Site administrator will accept submitted questions for panel discussions. - Ex-Jehovah's Witness Forum and Recovery Site
A very open forum with a broad range of defined categories. This forum can be a lot of fun to browse through and membership is open to almost anyone with some connection to the JWs. Most forum members are well informed with a sense of humor. - Jehovah's Witness Discussion Forum
The largest ex-JW Internet forum. Originally a discussion board for Jehovah’s Witnesses, it morphed into the central gathering place for ex-JWs, unhappy Witnesses, and other contributors. Experiencing some technical problems (June, 2009). - Jehovah's Witness Recovery
Website and forum intended to provide a positive and encouraging environment for former Jehovah’s Witnesses, to help with the transition from the organization into normal society. - Jehovah's Witness Support Forum
Great support forum with lots of activity. Many sincere and helpful members who have some great stories and lots of advice to offer. Includes a lot of contributing members from other forums. - JW Match
Commercial dating site for single Jehovah’s Witnesses in the USA. Looking for a red hot date with a “lover of Jehovah”? Not sure if this should be in the “Pro-Watchtower” or “Scandals & Secrets” categories…
Personal Testimonies
- 4Jehovah.org & 4Witness.org
A non-profit Christian ministry with a biblical perspective on Jehovah’s Witness beliefs and practices. They claim they do not endorse any specific church or religion, but are more spiritual than some sites. Publishes a good group of personal testimonies. - Atheist Geek News
The “Geek” isn’t spreading atheism, nor being overly critical of Jehovah’s Witnesses. Definitely not a “hate the Watchtower” or a “become an atheist” site. A very insightful and entertaining blog with a slightly off-center approach to its subjects… - VirusHead.net
Ex JW pages include advice for recovering Jehovah’s Witnesses and a large collection of JW jokes. By a former JW with a somewhat eclectic, ethically-sensitive and meditative point of view…
Pro-Watchtower
- Jehovah's Witnesses – Official Media Web Site
Official media outlet from the Watchtower organization. Presents a very limited and sanitized view of the WT and its beliefs. Generic and unexciting…. - Watchtower – Official Web Site of Jehovah's Witnesses
If you can’t wait to read the next Watchtower or Awake! magazines, then you’ll love this site. Very basic in approach, avoiding controversy or questions from readers. Weak… - Worldwide Association of Jehovah's Witnesses
An official Watchtower website providing MP3 and AAC audio versions of recent Watchtower and Awake! magazine articles. Also audio versions of recent Yearbook and other study books. Provides a look-up for upcoming convention dates and locations…
Scandals & Secrets

Good discussion site regarding the Watchtower’s ever changing position on blood. You will be amazed at the number of doctrinal changes on this subject… - Silent Lambs
Supportive, yet gutsy site dedicated to tell the background stories of the many cases of child abuse within the Watchtower organization. This site is worth your time and your support…
Video & Audio Sites
- JW Media Films
A relatively new video site connected to the website www.TruthBeforeLies.com. Excellent and well constructed videos with strong preparation and documentation. Ranks among the very best video sites. Spend some time checking this one out. - Peter Gregerson – Is the Watchtower God's Only Organization?
A one-hour presentation by Peter Gregerson at the BRCI Conference in 2008. You must listen to this audio file! A mind-opening, mind-blowing discussion of the Watchtower Society that will open your eyes… - Watchtower Comments
A great collection of high quality informative videos about Jehovah’s Witnesses and the Watchtower Society. Produced by an active JW, this site tries to be very even handed and informative. See website for direct YouTube link.
Watchtower History
- Jehovah's Witnesses Exposed
Located in a subdirectory of this Canadian based website, this somewhat dated resource is full of interesting historical perspectives of JW teachings and scandals. Well worth a visit… - Truth Before Lies
This site is still being updated. Good intentions to be encouraged. Offers links to very valuable documentation, PDF version of older Watchtower publications, and other resources. Give this one a long and close look. See also JW Media Films (above). - Watchtower Documents LLC
