🚨 TONIGHT at 8 PM EST 🚨 The Above The Bar Podcast goes deep on faith, safety, and preparedness. Join us live tonight with Joseph Evangelist, a faith-based security trainer and USA Carry Online Magazine contributing author, for a powerful and timely conversation every House of Worship needs to hear. 🙏🔥 Tonight we’re asking real questions • How safe is your House of Worship? • Is your church prepared for emergencies beyond Sunday service? • Can faith and real-world safety work together? • Who protects the congregation when crisis hits? Joseph trains Houses of Worship across the country through Shamar Shield, helping churches prepare for everything from extreme weather and medical emergencies to security threats, child safety, and reality-based drills inside their own buildings. This is not fear-based. This is preparedness, leadership, and stewardship. 📍 LIVE at 8 PM EST 📺 Streaming on all Above The Bar Podcast platforms 🎤 Audience interaction encouraged If you lead, serve, or attend a House of Worship, you don’t want to miss this one. #TheAboveTheBarPodcast #BeSureToPushYourStoolIn #ChurchSafety #FaithAndPreparedness #ShamarShield #HouseOfWorship #Leadership #CommunitySafety
