from Church Security Talk · host Worship Security Academy

Check out our church security scenario cards: https://www.decisiondecks.com In today’s episode I’m talking with Stephen Willeford known as either “the barefoot defender” or “the good guy with a gun” Stephen is best known for tackling and shooting back at an armed shooter during the deadliest mass church shooting in U.S history. November 2017 at the First Baptist Church in Sutherland Springs Texas 26 people lost their lives at the hands of an armed shooter. This conversation takes a slightly different approach to dive deep into the mindset of taking the life of another person.
