“Except the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that build it: except the Lord keeps the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.”
Our History
Founded in 2004 in Edinburgh, Scotland, Spiritual Research Network (SRN) began as part of Chris Lawson’s Scotland Missions outreach (2003-2007). Initially focused on church planting, we quickly saw the need for biblical discernment and support for spiritually abused Christians.
Visit Our MinistryIn a culture deeply influenced by secular humanism, Neo-Paganism, and false teachings, SRN emerged as a discernment-based Christian outreach, equipping believers with biblical truth to stand against spiritual deception.
From the start, SRN has confronted false doctrines and warned against the infiltration of mysticism and occult-based spirituality in the church:
- New Age & Mysticism: Addressing the dangers of contemplative prayer, visualization, and Eastern religious practices.
- Spiritual Abuse & False Movements: Exposing manipulative teachings and doctrinal distortions.
- Defending Biblical Christianity: Standing against ecumenical compromise and promoting sound doctrine.
In 2007, SRN relocated to California, expanding its reach through biblical research, apologetics, and Christian education. Our mission remains the same – proclaim the gospel, warn against false teachings, and equip believers with biblical discernment.
