Federal authorities arrested a Texas man, James Wesley Burger, after uncovering a plan to carry out attacks on Christian targets, using Roblox, a popular online gaming platform, to communicate and share extremist content. But are churches seeing this and taking action to prevent issues?

According to a criminal complaint filed in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas, Burger described himself as a “terrorist” and sympathizer of the Islamic State (IS), using the platform to discuss and plan acts of violence. Giving warning?

is it possible that this isn’t more widely reported, for a reason? Does it show that lone wolf actors are our greatest threat and our government is not advising churches of people actively trying to kill us? Why aren’t more churches, Houses Of Worship, taking steps to Be Prepared, Ready?Why don’t more have a Risk Review, develop a Plan, Policies, for their Safety Security, with Trained Teams, to implement and carry out the Plan?

    The Utah DPS assesses threats with the Statewide Information and Analysis Center, which is a program within DPS.
    The peace and safety felt in worship is everything and hope to preserve with this program.
    “We’re going to walk you through making you feel less vulnerable and safe again,” Lt. Street said.
