In line with your thought though, it would be nice if there was an online resource for us ex-JWs (in heart) to use in helping our families that provides a linear discussion of the Bible (at least Acts - Revelation) and provides questions for critical thinking that exposes JW thinking versus TTATT. So for anyone that has the ability to do such, i.e. has the knowledge, such a project would be very beneficial to our community. I saw a resource where this was done for the book "What Does The Bible Really Teach" and wish that I had this when we last studied it at the congregation.

I'm like you, still trying to figure out how to introduce topics in Family Worship Night, or rather begin having a Family Worship Night and not send up apostate red flags in the process. I like how ILoveTTATT does it. See post below.
He focuses on using just the Bible in Family Worship, and makes some good deductions from just the scriptures.
My wife is somewhat aware of my position, but not to the full degree. When I start our family worship night, I'm going to open it along the lines of "How can we believe in something that we have never read. I've never read the Bible fully. It's entirely too long. But now that the FDS has reduced the Bible by 13%, we don't have any excuse anymore." Then I'm just going to focus on the scriptures. I'm going to set this as a clearly defined goal, have discussion about what we read, and not deviate to the Wt propaganda.

Good job. All I get is advertisements to find my Latin and Columbian girlfriends. While a nice proposition, I don't quite think my wife would approve. And before anyone says it's adsense reading my cookies, I have not, I repeat have not, looked at any porn/dating sites on my work computer, so they shouldn't be there.
At home I accidentally clicked on one.

Yes, aren't we supposed to research? Wait, but only from the WT publications.

They must have used a different translation and forgot to cite it. Byingtons bible does use the word "research" in the verse, although it is a little different. This should still be confusing to most JWs, though.

I found the second one on an archive site. Looks like it was published in 1943. It doesn't say who the writer is though.
