🖋️ A Season of Refinement: Moving Forward in Truth

Every journey of truth encounters resistance. Sometimes it is sincere inquiry. Other times, it is noise designed to distract, distort, or derail.

We’ve faced both.

But through it all, we’ve grown—not in bitterness, but in clarity. Not in defensiveness, but in depth. And not in reaction, but in resolve.

What once burdened us now builds us. The slanders, the misrepresentations, even the absurdities—these no longer wound. They refine. They sharpen our citations, strengthen our methodology, and lead us deeper into the evidence, where truth waits patiently to be rediscovered.

Let it be known: we welcome scrutiny—but not dishonor. We embrace critique—but not mockery. And while others write blogs, we write books, publish maps, meet with academics, and build for generations to come.

The tide is turning. Not because we are louder—but because the evidence is stronger. And no amount of noise can drown that out.

To all who have stood with us, prayed for us, or simply dared to ask, “What if they’re right?”—we thank you. Stay tuned. We’re only just getting started.

🔍 Who Is “The God Culture Team”?

The God Culture is not a one-man operation. While Timothy Jay Schwab serves as lead researcher and public voice, the work represents the collaboration of a larger team — including, but not limited to:

• Multiple book contributors and co-authors (some named, some anonymous by necessity)

• Translators for Tagalog, Ilokano, Spanish, and other languages

• Researchers who remain anonymous because of the likes of demon-possessed bloggers

• Editors and peer reviewers

• Video narrators and production team members

• Advisory board

• Multiple event hosts and coordinators

• Numerous volunteers who assist on projects such as studio recording, editing, event fulfillment, book distribution, tract distribution, linguistics support, etc. 

• Viewers and readers by the thousands who have contributing a great deal over the past 8 years. 

Due to ongoing targeted attacks and defamation by an anonymous blogger, several team members have chosen not to be named publicly for their safety and peace of mind. However, their contributions are real, essential, and part of the ongoing record — evident in book credits, voice variation across videos, and multiple writing styles across our work.

The idea that The God Culture is “only Tim” is not only factually false — it’s part of a deliberate attempt to diminish a movement that has involved the work, scholarship, and sacrifice of many. Also, it gives him one person to target with demon-possessed, criminal defamation that will be dealt with soon.
