Church Safety and Security: A Practical Guide

This is an essential guide for any group charged with developing a comprehensive Church Safety and Security plan. Although published 10 years ago, it is still relevant in addressing today’s issues such as “active shooters”. The book also addresses the vulnerabilities of young children. With this book, augmented by assistance from your local fire, police and EMT resources, your team can have an effective plan in place in a few short months.

This book should get five stars. I was a member of law enforcement for over twenty years and have been teaching church security for twenty five years. This is one of the best books that I have read on church security.

Excellent information covering the basic concepts and procedures of church security.Additional situation awareness techniques and proper threat deesclation scenarios and topics are needed.

The book places responsibility directly on the local governing body of your church. Just not for the crazy who walks in the door with a bomb, revolver, rifle etc, but on fire planning, escape routes, safe areas , for children and adults, roll calls and medical emergencies.Well worth the cost of the book

Crucial reading

Book clearly written for a large church that is operated like a corporation. not all churches have multiple offices and departments but all churches need security considerations.

Excellent reference

Good Read!
