Watchman Fellowship Charity Profile
Watchman Fellowship is an independent Christian research and apologetics ministry focusing on new religious movements, cults, the occult and the New Age.
David Henke founded Watchman Fellowship in Columbus, Georgia in 1979. Today, Watchman Fellowship has several offices in the United States, and we also support an international office in Romania providing apologetics resources to the Romanian people in their own language.
Watchman Fellowship serves the Christian and secular community as a resource for education, counseling, and non-coercive intervention and evangelism training. We accomplish these tasks through our church presentations, our magazines (The Watchman Expositor and The Vantage Point), personal counseling, this website, and other activities. We have served almost every denomination including Baptist, Presbyterian, Methodist, Episcopal, Assemblies of God, Church of God, Lutheran, Nazarene, etc., as well as schools, law enforcement agencies, and civic groups.
Concerning a person's right to choose, we believe that a real choice is one based on access to all the information, and understanding both or all sides. The cults typically try to block their members and the public from having access to this information. We have found that most cults will use deception, control, cover up, and dishonesty with their own members and the people they are trying to convert. This deception includes some or all of the following: the group's history, false prophesy, false scholarship, a distortion of true church history and doctrine, and destructive practices of the group.
