Guarding the Flock: From Brainstorm to Book

In this episode of Sanctuary Peacemakers, Unity celebrates the release of his first book, Guarding the Flock: A Safety Ministry Field Guide. From the original idea to the challenges of writing, revising, and publishing, Unity shares the journey behind the book, including the unforgettable experience of holding the finished product for the first time. Discover why Guarding the Flock was written, what makes church safety ministry different from traditional security, and how this practical resource is designed to help both new and experienced safety ministry leaders better protect and serve their congregations. Guarding the Flock: A Safety Ministry Field Guide is now available on Amazon in paperback and hardcover.
