What does the Bible really say about protecting the Church in times of terror? In this episode of The Deep End Podcast with Tim Hatch Live, Pastor Tim tackles breaking news, rising violence against Christians, and the biblical call to defend our families, churches, and faith. From the Michigan church attack to the

Christian genocide in Nigeria by Boko Haram and Fulani herdsmen, discover why “turn the other cheek” doesn’t mean leaving the vulnerable unprotected. Jesus commanded His followers to “sell your cloak and buy a sword” (Luke 22), showing that lawful self-defense is not murder—it’s responsibility. ✨ Want More?
