Keith! You literally warned us about this! Honestly, I can think of 2, maybe 3 times. And I think there was more. Stay on it brother! Your insight is much appreciated!

The only thing I can think of is lock down the church and call 911.

Today's news of the activation 1,500 Army 11th Airborne Mountain/Arctic troops to deploy under the Insurrection Act could change the dynamics, also. If Minnesota wants to start a civil war, I guess they have the opportunity. Hoping they keep it to themselves.

In this instance, the protesters apparently claimed a First Amendment right to protest inside the church. My understanding is that they CAN legally protest on a public sidewalk outside the church property, but once they enter church property and have officially been asked to leave, they are trespassing, and can be arrested.

Sometimes such trouble can be headed off with cheerful discussion, as one of our pastors did when our church was visited by First Amendment auditors.

Right now im the only person on our small churches what i want to call The Watchmen group (*security team). I am a little knowledgeable on how to do security but would love to learn so much more. Do you have training? And if you dl where can I find the training? Love your show. Keep up the great work Brother 👍

I am only able to listen at the moment, but could you cover the federal laws protecting church services from disruption. I'm sure state laws vary or strengthen federal law.

I know Pastor Hibbs proceeds potential controversial programs with a reminder of laws in case intruders are already in the congregation. Would this be required to enforce such laws?

God bless you Keith.

So, if you were to see a group heading toward your church, should the outside greater go inside and secure the door and maintain watch? Or should they stay outside and speak with them to ascertain their intent and make a judgement call base on the interaction to not allowing them access?

What would you recommend?

I discussed this very thing in the video

Knowing what Ive seen from mobs like them I wouldn't engage them.

We all knew it was coming, but it still feels surreal to see it happening. Prepare, spiritually, temporarily, and mentally.

our safety team loves your briefings. I add in our local info to it... great stuff thanks

Brian's avatar

hope they actually do something about those people who did that. unfortunately I can see them getting a slap on the list and or bailed out by whoever is funding all this.
