There are a lot of configuration errors in the domain wadsworth.org. Discrepancy in the list of authoritative name servers between your zone and the parents, unresponding name servers, non-existing name servers (!).

Which is non-standardized and a specific feature of some DNS hosters. In your case, the fact that you use BIND on the primary is not the only factor, you would also have to consider your many (!) secondaries. > I'm looking for guidance on how to point the named domain name, the > apex record at the IP addresses provided by the cname name we are > using for our webserver.
