We ought always to thank God for you, brothers, and rightly so, because your faith is growing more and more, and the love every one of you has for each other is increasing.

Church Security Guard Had Been Fired by Minneapolis Police
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) The security guard who shot the gunman responsible for the killings at a church and missionary training center in Colorado had been fired as a police officer in Minneapolis.
Minneapolis police say Jeanne Assam worked for that city's department from 1993 to 1997, but was fired for lying during an internal investigation.
But that doesn't bother New Life Church Pastor Brady Boyd, who notes that Jeanne Assam "is a fairly new believer in Christ."
He adds, "If you go back in any of our pasts, you can dig up something on any of us. She admittedly made lots of bad decisions, but only in the past few months did she become a devoted follower of Christ. Her life has changed."
