The Watchman Fellowship is, according to its website, an independent, non-denominational Christian research and apologetics ministry focusing on new religious movements, cults, the occult and the New Age. It was founded in 1979 and is based in Arlington, Texas, [1] [2] with offices in six states and one in Romania. [2] [3] It was founded in 1978 by David Henke. [4]
The mission of the Watchman Fellowship has three primary goals: to educate the community, to equip the church, and to evangelize the cults. [5] The Fellowship encourages traditional Christians to gather accurate information about groups that deviate from "essential Christian doctrines." [6] Its president is James Walker. [7]
Rather than objecting to paranormal activity on skeptical grounds, the Watchman Fellowship claims that spirits may be real and malevolent. [8]
In 2007, it contributed 45,000 items from the organization's own collection to the Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. [4]
