Self Defense & Turning the Other Cheek

Self Defense & Turning the Other Cheek

Author: John Lovell February 23, 2017 Duration: 3:46
Tactics Instructor John Lovell talks about 'Self Defense and "Turning the Other Cheek"'. This video may be about upsetting, but it should at least get us thinking. There is a time for peace and a time for war. A time to fight, and a time to turn the other cheek. This video is from a Christian viewpoint, let the viewer beware!

IMAGINE, someone you know got ticked off at you and was about to beat you up - not because you had wronged them, but because they just became prejudiced for some reason. This person is not threatening to kill you or anyone else, it is merely they want to bloody you up a bit. Should you run, fight, or just take it? My purpose in this video is not actually meant to answer the question I just posed, but to get you thinking about it, and then switch it up and ask these questions as a quick follow up: Which option requires more strength? Which would most likely bring about the most life change to the person attacking? Which is the most loving thing to do? These questions arose today as I was reading some stuff Jesus said in the Bible in Matthew 5. What do you guys think? Find out 'Why Your Guns Won't Save You' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0G1H3...

Hosted by John Lovell, the Warrior Poet Society Podcast explores the complex balance between strength and compassion, conviction and action. This isn't a theoretical discussion; it's a practical dialogue for those who feel a responsibility to protect what matters. Each episode delves into the philosophy of being a guardian in a modern world, dissecting topics that sit at the intersection of personal liberty, ethical duty, and tangible skill. The conversation stems from the idea that a true protector embodies two spirits: the lion and the lamb. You'll hear analysis on current events, cultural shifts, and foundational principles, all through the lens of someone who believes deep thought must be paired with the capability for decisive action. The aim is to equip you with perspective, to challenge assumptions, and to foster a community of individuals dedicated to living with purpose. This podcast serves as an ongoing resource for developing that dual nature-cultivating a mind sharpened by truth and a spirit resolved to defend it. It’s for those who refuse to see the world in simple binaries, understanding that wisdom often lies in holding apparent contradictions in tension. Tune in for candid discussions that honor the warrior’s resolve without sacrificing the poet’s heart.
