Shamblin founded the '''Remnant Fellowship Church''' in [[Franklin, Tennessee]] in 1999.<ref name="auto">{{cite web |date=September 17, 2020 |title=remnantfellowship.org |url=http://www.remnantfellowship.org/Our-Leaders/Gwen-Shamblin |website=remnantfellowship.org}}</ref> In 2004, the church moved into a new building that had been constructed on 40 acres of land purchased by Shamblin in [[Brentwood, Tennessee]].<ref name="auto" /><ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HO1FBW2aeNA |title=Gwen Shamblin on the Remnant Fellowship Church Construction |date=August 14, 2009 |via=YouTube}}</ref>

Shamblin sent an email to her followers saying that she believed that the doctrine of the [[Trinity]] was not Biblical on August 10, 2000. In response, some evangelical churches dropped her program, [[Thomas Nelson (publisher)|Thomas Nelson Publishers]] canceled the publication of her next book, she was removed from the [[Women of Faith]] website, and some employees left her staff.<ref name="NelsonCancels" />

Shamblin had preached that members should give their money to the Remnant Fellowship church, the only true church, and that all other churches were fraudulent. Remnant Fellowship was compared to a cult.<ref name=":1" />

After her death in 2021, Shamblin's children Michael Shamblin and Elizabeth Shamblin Hannah stated in June 2021 that they will both continue to lead Remnant Fellowship and continue their mother's legacy.<ref>{{cite web |title='Continue the dream': Remnant Fellowship Church founder's children will keep church going after her death |url=https://www.tennessean.com/story/news/2021/05/30/remnant-fellowship-church-continue-after-founder-gwen-shamblin-laras-death/5276463001/?fbclid=IwAR1WZ8SdCrFZg5-flDf3uVWjZ4-E5JUNXtis_m-eHf6P3a13LsRvebcnx1w |website=www.tennessean.com}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Remnant Fellowship releases statement after church leaders killed in plane crash |url=https://foxchattanooga.com/news/local/remnant-fellowship-releases-statement-after-church-leaders-killed-in-plane-crash |website=foxchattanooga.com|date=30 May 2021 }}</ref>   November the same year, Michael left the church and was no longer involved in Remnant Fellowship's operations. This left Elizabeth as the church's sole leader.

In a February 2024 interview, Michael Shamblin described the organisation as a cult.<ref>{{cite web |date=February 12, 2024 |title='What were we doing?'

On November 24, 2025, Michael Shamblin compared the church to [[Scientology]] due to repeated incidents of harassment, stalking, and threats from church leadership toward current and ex-members.<ref>{{cite web |title=“V’s” Experience |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e86OQEMypt0 |website=www.youtube.com}}</ref>
