I’m Christopher- just a dad, husband, and brother who couldn’t sleep until I figured out how to keep my family safe in a world that feels more unpredictable every day.

When my wife and I started our family, I was thrilled… but like every parent, I quickly realized there’s so much more to protecting our kids than we ever imagined. We child-proofed the house, got the best car seats, enrolled everyone in Taekwondo (which has been a huge blessing — discipline, respect, family bonding, all of it). But even with belts on the wall, I kept asking the question that wouldn’t let me rest:

What if someone tries to hurt them when I’m not there?

That question sent me on a long search. I studied course after course, listened to award-winning instructors who love Jesus like we do, and tested what actually works for women and children in real life — not in a gym, but in parking lots, hallways, and homes.

Shield & Shepherd is the answer God led me to.

Then, through Little Lions, we give your children joyful, age-appropriate ways to escape and run to safety.

This isn’t about fear.
