David Watson is the founder and executive director of Asian Partners International, Inc. (API), a Lubbock, Texas based church planting ministry that focuses on un-reached people groups primarily in Asia.
David and his wife Jan have been involved in this type of ministry since 1986 and were among the pioneers of the nonresidential missionary movement. They not only established two missions agencies that concentrate on church planting among un-reached people groups but also started three companies that support missionaries and provide income for local Christian workers.
Their entire career in foreign missions has centered on restricted access countries, and during the past fifteen years their teams have helped to initiate more than 40,000 house churches throughout Asia.
Before becoming executive director of API, David was a church planter and strategy coordinator for the International Mission Board of the Southern Baptist Convention. His ministry experience also includes youth evangelism, associate and senior pastorates, senior adults, radio and television, music, working with the hearing impaired, hospice care, and hospital chaplaincy.
