Personal Quote from Dr. Stewart: "When asked if carrying a concealed handgun is a denial of our belief in the sovereignty and protection of Almighty God, I have this to say: When a defenseless citizen is delivered by an armed defender from the dangers of an unlawful assault, the victim tends to thank Almighty God for providing the armed defender as a sort of 'Angel-Deliverer.' I'd much rather, as the expression of God's sovereignty, be the armed defender than the vulnerable citizen!"
