Faithful Word Baptist Church is a fundamentalist Independent Baptist church in Tempe, Arizona that was founded by Pastor Steven Anderson.
The church describes itself as "an old-fashioned, independent, fundamental, King James Bible–only, soul-winning Baptist church." Members of the church meet in an office space that is located inside a strip mall.
Anderson established the church in December 2005 and remains its pastor. In August 2009, the church received national attention when Anderson stated in a sermon that he was praying for the death of then-president Barack Obama.
The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) listed Faithful Word Baptist Church as an anti-gay "hate group", citing its pastor's "extremely radical stance" that homosexuals if judged according to the Law of Moses, should be executed.
Since then, as the church has grown, it has received media attention for its documentary titled Marching to Zion, which the Anti-Defamation League labelled anti-semitic; media attention has also focused on the pastor being refused entry to Jamaica, Canada, the United Kingdom, the European Union, the Republic of Ireland and Australia.
