Keith, thank you again. With that, let me point you to an important book by Ed Monk called "The First 30 Seconds." In it he makes the case, based purely on his research and the math, that to keep the body-count below double-digits, the "problem" has to be solved within the first 30 seconds. It's just the math. Having that understanding and being mentality prepped prompts Sheepdogs to move quickly and with urgency when it's our time. Your admonition to the LDS is warrented and so glad you have the courage and urgency to state it...again. After all, it's just math...

That’s a great resource and he’s absolutely right!

Hello sir

I have been head of security at our church in North Carolina for about 4 years now I presently live in South Carolina approximately 20 miles south of the church. I first come to know about ChristianWorriorTraining watching training videos on USCCA which I am also a member of. Seen the video interview with you pertaining to church security. I am also a certified RSO and currently have approximately 160 hrs of training. I was raised up in a family of Law Enforcement. And I thank you for your service. Just recently updated our security cameras at the church and I have meetings with my team at lest once a month most of my team are elderly so I’m the one responsible mostly for training my team. I show them the same videos that I trained with and also the intell that you provide. Have gained some great insight from CristianWorriorTraining and USCCA. Keep up the good work you’re doing for our LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST Be Blessed

An thanks again

Darrell

Keith, several members of my church's safety team (only my husband and I are commissioned LEO / licensed security) are active on Christian Warrior Training. We often share your articles with our pastor who is a supporter. We have cameras and a diligent man watching those monitors like a hawk, we walk the parking lot, all members have radios, and a few of us train regularly with firearms, situational awareness, de-escalation, and medical trauma. The policy, one you won't see on our web site, is that all members of the safety team who carry MUST be licensed to do so. As far as the congregation is concerned, a few are firearms instructors or LEOs, about two dozen are veterans, and the rest are farm boys who "know how to shoot". The pastor and the safety team fears the outcome if all Billy Heck breaks loose. Crossfire and condition black! I don't know if Pastor will address the issue but I'll keep squeaking. Thank you for your observations, wisdom, and discernment. God bless and keep you and yours!

Thanks brother Keith for loving all people of faith. That’s God’s love . A church that takes two or three blocks with a few security guards is not really taking seriously. Sometimes 2 or 3 for in and out, but they don’t listen what I had learned lately with you. I just pray for them and take care myself and brother and sisters at my surroundings
