Real Stories. Real Impact.

From one-man teams to experienced safety leaders, churches across the country are using Sheepdog Church Security training to build confidence, strengthen teams, and protect their congregations. Here’s what they’re saying:

Scott Ware

Safety Team Director & Firearms Instructor, Sanctuary Select Services, Northwest Iowa

I’ve followed Sheepdog Church Security for years because no one else stays as current or practical. As a USCCA firearms instructor, I teach Protecting the Congregation to churches and lead a safety team that trains quarterly on live-fire, de-escalation, and emergency response, including active shooter.

Your resources have been invaluable — I share every article with my team and regularly apply your recommendations in our training. It took time to get church leadership on board, but your guidance helped me build credibility and create a safety team our congregation can count on.

💬 “No one provides more practical, church-focused safety guidance than Sheepdog Church Security.

Elise Robertson

Safety Officer, On Fire Ministries & Kingdom Christian Academy

When I took on security at our church and academy, I knew improvements were needed — but the Safety Director Toolkit showed me just how much. The training, resources, and Thursday workshops have been invaluable in refining policies and strengthening our security.

The community of Safety Directors has been a huge help, offering practical insights I can apply immediately. Even when I can’t attend live, the recorded workshops let me revisit key topics anytime. This training has truly been a game-changer.

💬 “The Safety Director Toolkit helped me make real, lasting changes to our church’s security. The workshops and community of leaders have been invaluable!”

Dr. Claude S. Moore, Ed.D.

Fairview Church, Danville, Virginia

As an educator and curriculum developer for nearly five decades, I’ve reviewed countless training programs. None compare to the depth, clarity, and professionalism of Sheepdog Church Security Academy.

Before our team began your program, I researched many options. Yours stood out for its instructional quality, practical application, and strong biblical foundation. It’s evident that every lesson is designed with both effectiveness and ministry in mind.

💬 “Sheepdog Church Security offers the best-designed, most practical training program I’ve seen for church safety teams.”
