Is it unchristian to resort to force in the defense of oneself or others? The new book, The Christian and Self-Defense, by R. Herbert looks first at the biblical verses that are often used by those who claim that defending oneself or others from harm is unscriptural. It then looks at those verses that Christian advocates of self-defense feel allow and encourage self-defense. Finally, The Christian and Self-Defense looks at the issue of avoiding the need for self-defense where possible and examines practical defensive options that can help to keep you and your loved ones safe.
