From the time of Simon Magus in Acts 8, there have been Predators in the Church. Predators think differently than others. They come into your church seeking prey, not a just a job or a place to volunteer. XPastor investigated three kinds of predators. Help your church avoid these predators. Learn how the predator thinks and how to prevent them.

In 20 classes we cover the areas of Church Security, Child Abuse Prevention and Financial Fraud. There are scores of tools offered in the 3 tools sections.

  • Classes 1-6 are on Church Security
  • Classes 7-15 are on preventing child abuse
  • Classes 16-20 are on preventing financial fraud

To deter the wolf in sheep’s clothing,
change your thinking and take action.

Deter

Every day in the national news media, there are stories about shootings, embezzlement and sexual abuse in the church. Recent media stories include:

  • An active shooter at a church of 70 attendees killed 26 people.
  • An embezzler in a town of 844 people stole $481,000.
  • A sexual predator at the eighth largest church in America wrought havoc.

This course will help you deter and prevent predators in your church. Please don’t be another victim. Don’t be another story in the national press.

Change

Predators are in churches of all sizes and cities. They are already in your church! The workshop focuses on three types of predators:

  1. Active Shooters have never been more active. Learn the basics and nuances of church safety teams and dealing with attenders that have concealed weapons. Enhance your first lines of awareness and building security.
  2. Child Sexual Predators are in your church but only one out of four sexual assaults are reported. Discover basic and advanced tactics for prevention … and see how predators will try to outsmart your tactics.
  3. Embezzlers rarely come to police attention, yet one in ten churches have had financial fraud. Learn where embezzlers find it easiest to steal from your church. See both old scams and new, high-tech tricks.
