Personal Freedom Outreach
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Personal Freedom Outreach (PFO) is small organization that serves to "educate Christians about the dangers and heretical doctrines of religious cults, to use the Gospel of Jesus Christ to reach members of those cults and to warn Christians of unbiblical teachings within the church itself."[1] PFO operates its business from three separate post office boxes, with the main office located in St. Louis, Missouri. PFO consists of 10 people, including seven officers and three board members.[1]
PFO was founded by M. Kurt Goedelman in 1975. PFO published tracts on the Jehovah’s Witnesses, the Watchtower Society, Mormonism, The Way International, the Unification Church, and other organizations that Goedelman believed were cultic groups.
PFO publishes the Quarterly Journal, which has included articles on ministers and organizations such as Bill Gothard, Benny Hinn, Joyce Meyer, and Trinity Broadcasting Network, and many other groups that they accuse of being cults.
