Written by a street cop, this unique publication describes the spiritual armor of Ephesians chapter 6 using a contemporary equivalent -- the police uniform -- giving readers fresh insight into this well-known passage. The importance of each piece of equipment is driven home through engaging, real-life police stories responding to the infamous L.A. Riots, the devastating 1994 Northridge earthquake, working in jails, making arrests, etc. The author then gives readers a look into the courtroom of the Judge of all mankind, encouraging them to amp;quot;take up the shieldamp;quot; of faith by placing their trust in Jesus Christ. Encouraging for Christians, evangelistic for cops and others.

Written by a street cop, this unique publication compares the various pieces of law enforcement equipment to the spiritual armor that the Bible describes in Ephesians chapter 6. The importance of each piece of equipment is driven home through engaging, real-life police stories (responding to the infamous L.A. Riots, the devastating 1994 Northridge earthquake, working in jails, making arrests, and more).
Although much has been written about this well-known passage of Scripture, little has been written from the perspective of a Christian who wears and uses the physical armor of the police officer every day, fighting both the physical battle against crime in our society and the spiritual battle against evil that all individuals are called to fight.
You don’t have to be a cop or a Christian to be encouraged and challenged by this book. In addition to building your faith, this book will serve as a helpful introduction to the men and women who protect you and your community.
