What is this website for?

My site is designed to challenge people to think about their purpose in life, the existence of absolute truth, the practical aspects of the Bible, and more. I get plenty of feedback from across the spectrum: new believers in God seeking to know more about faith, skeptics looking for debate, students researching for projects, and just plain surfers looking for something meaningful to browse.

Who is Daniel W. Jarvis?

You'll see my name at the bottom of most of the pages at AbsoluteTruth.Net. I greatly enjoy writing, and have done work on political/news topics, religion and philosophy, and even a little sales here and there. You can learn more about the other stuff I do with my life (besides AT) here.

Why are you doing this?

My life has been completely changed (in a good way) by the message in the Bible. However, as I've talked about it with others, I've realized that many people never give the Bible a chance. I suppose it could have to do with negative stereotypes we have about Christians or church or whatever. Some people are really interested in spirituality, they just don't know where to turn. So, in 1998, AbsoluteTruth.Net was born to help people find and explore "truth" according to the Bible. I've tried to present things in an honest, open-minded, plain language sort of way.

Why does the link at the top of your page say "About Us" when it is really just one person?

Good question. I'm not really sure. "Us" has a more official ring to it, wouldn't you say? But I can't deny the truth, it's just me. Well, and you. So in that sense, this website has to do with "us."

What is Absolute Truth Ministries?

Well, after AbsoluteTruth.Net was posted, I began working with other people (ahh...there's the "us") to publish some of the material we produce in various languages (see Resources). As far as I can figure, we have touched the lives of hundreds of thousands of people worldwide with the message of God's absolute truth. I've also done a few seminar type things, which are fun, and am developing new things all the time. I hope one day to be on the radio with this, but that's dreaming, I realize (Update: Dreaming no longer, click here). Just FYI, "Ministries" is a Christianese word refering to "acts of service to other people," which is what this whole thing is about. For updates on ministry activities, see our "News" section.

How did you find time to write so many articles ?

Little by little, that's how. When this website began it was three short, admittedly-lame articles. Today, it grows and improves regularly because I put time into writing on a regular basis. If you feel you are gifted in writing and want to develop your gift to communicate the Bible's message, the Christian Writers Guild has a great course on the subject.

Absolute Truth? Isn't that name a little arrogant?

Some say it is. Hey, it was a cool domain that was available. And besides, I'm not claiming to be the source of truth at all, absolute or otherwise. I'm suggesting that the Bible is from God, and that God's Word is absolutely true. Thus, while you'll find a discussion on the existence of truth on this website, you'll also find plenty of Bible-based information regarding all different aspects of life, science, history, and daily decision-making. If you're interested in some of the reasons why I've come to the conclusion that the Bible is true, check out the "truth" section.
