Bill Johnson / Bethel Church, Redding, California

Pastored by 'apostle' Bill Johnson, Bethel Church in Redding, California is an influential church in the so-called New Apostolic Reformation (NAR).
The NAR is a heterodox movement in Protestant Christianity in which people follow present-day apostles and prophets who claim to govern the church and give new divine revelation that is needed to set up God's kingdom on earth.
Bethel's teachings and practices also identify the church as part of the equally problematic Word-Faith Movement.
