Death. Trauma. Violence. Depravity in all its forms. These are the underside of a functioning society. A side that some people refuse to even acknowledge.

While most people actively try to avoid this seedy otherworld, there is a segment that voluntarily enters the fray each day: The First Responder.

65% of the adult population identify as one of the Christian religious denominations. What does the Bible say to the Christian men and women who voluntarily wade into this dark societal underbelly?

John Jones has intimate knowledge of the issues covered in this text having earned this familiarity over 30 years of first-hand, continuous first responder

experience.
