Thirty years ago this month, a small army of federal agents stormed the compound of the Branch Davidian cult led by David Koresh with armored vehicles, knocking down walls and launching tear gas. That deadly assault outside of Waco, Texas was the culmination of a 51-day standoff between government agents, four of whom were killed in the line of duty, and the Davidians. The assault ended horrifically when a tragic fire quickly consumed the compound and claimed the lives of over 80 Davidians, including 26 children.

On this episode of the Profile Watchman senior apologist Brady Blevins sits down with president of Watchman Fellowship James Walker and discusses not only what it was like for Watchman Fellowship during the Waco siege, but also the history and development of this sect of Seventh Day Adventism, what went wrong and the circumstances which contributed to the tragedy. Most importantly, remembering Waco helps us to never forget the tragic consequences that may result from pursuing false Christs and counterfeit Christianity.

Next week we are releasing for the first time in podcast format our 2018 interview with the late Clive Doyle. Clive was one of the few surviving Branch Davidians who was badly burned but escaped the 1993 fire with his life. Clive shared that all these years later he continued to believed in Koresh and he tells us why he was still awaiting the second coming of David Koresh.
