Today we have Stephen Williford with us and he was the man who took on the assailant in the Texas church and we were share that story when we left her hero, Lee was in hot pursuit.

I understand you went nearly 95 miles an hour where in Texas exactly as it Stephen were born under people and Antonio bow southeast of San Antonio C really close to Mexico will know more early.

But don't go a couple hundred mile compared to me. It's really close to makes it okay. Yeah I know I lab you would to provider are rebated to take the pill be the third-largest baby I bought really big loss. It is again II have been barred.

You know that after breaking the plug recommended foundation and a abdominal work anywhere.

He would he was running down the street that could about 150 yard. I ran out into the street and the accelerating away about one last stop for the back window.

They can stop in and like down the back window shattered and the police told me later that stop had gone through the back window went through the driver side and it just right and the left shoulder blade.

No for your audience. I will tell you, good sign bridge not that good a spot. I believe God directed everyone of the bullets to be where they were and I don't believe that God wanted them to be found.

Church either MM AP have been pleased when I had to set up a perimeter like a never good idea helped our community that needed it so badly and I'm seeing him drive over the hill and he disappeared something in the just can't stop thinking can't be in like this you give away and I looked off to the left side and their baby pickup. There at the stop start and I ran over and I tapped him on the window and at that got to stop the Baptist Church of an the guy sent me on the phone when an officer.the next thing I hear the door lock come open on the truck that any strain person but just witnessed a shoot out from his truck would have accelerated.

Let me end of their but this is text were talking about were not known for arsenic, though Johnny let me year and I didn't know his name.

I didn't know who he was. Just complete stranger and I look over and there's a long call then built them with a Western add-on little bit better and it had to of a long form skull on that and I love it that you need on the phone and he never said a word. I climbed up the McNabb of the accelerated and turned the corner and struck Jake and he's on the phone with my mom.

One, they put them straight into dispatch and the as we ran across the road.

I again thinking more clearly than I ever have in my life. I dropped the bag to clean out my gun and I thought it only had one round of the top of the magazine and one round in the chamber I have to round in. The man still has a factory body armor guy looked over and I told the benefit I tell them. Hurry, hurry only had two rounds left. I never want to read red and blue light or my light and he told them him or accelerating and going straight through to dispatch so that he was talking to dispatch we will pursuit and at this time we were just chasing down the road in the direction you left and we were passing cars started. We were gone over 95 miles Broglie it was a white knuckle ride were trying to give them straight. As we passed the Ojai wave came across so they would know where that at some point we came in view of a mechanic of that that the gray SUV at the back window that felt and we were catching and I turned them out starting at the general if we catching you're gonna have to put them off the road and I will bounce a lot, but kind of mouth and yet I think that, and I'm thinking seriously, right way and they probably think it always one maneuver is we can't lump all you pulled onto the right hand side of the road at this point I had the window down on my and I reached the rifle out the window and opened the door and I was going to step out and use the door. Johnny struck the shield and I was going to reengage.

But before I got my foot on the ground accelerated again. He hit a road, looked over the vehicle and ramrod back up onto the highway and Johnny tolerated optical door shut started up again and got about 3/4 mile up the road both the way around occur toward Dr. (father wrote this time ran through Banff and out into the field about 50 yards of grout stop and I told Tanya just get down below the – just just right under seek it down below the – I didn't want anybody else to be a target and I opened up the door and I laid my rifle across the hood of the truck and I started yelling at an amount real proud of the language that I bided you that I think God will forgive me, but I wanted him to be know that I am first or am I aiming the driver side door and window. I was parked at an angle, but I couldn't figure in the vehicle but I was yelling get out get out and they estimate that it was 5 to 7 minute before the police finally showed up and I heard a police officer from the side.

The driver get out your vehicle and I will talk to my left and about 50 more guards approach be lived. A police cruiser and he was standing behind his door with a pistol in his right and a microphone and an image that briber get your vehicle to him but… All thank you Lord. The police are here laid the rifle down on the hood of the truck started to the back of the truck with my arms up our palms out orca officer you may contact eye contact with your looked at the gate. The Mikey said not you there at that moment I knew he knew who I was them that I had a better tactical progression. So I went back over to the truck and pick my rifle up and pointed it back down the shooter again and waited. And I guess it was probably another 10 minutes or so, or several other officers and I started going out there they are looking and I knew at that moment I am all the life along the hood of the truck and walk around that are noted on the back of the toolbox are driving school box and then I was trying to stand in the shade of the truck that they unseasonably hot. It was 90° November and I'm trying to get my feet in the shade because I was I was barefoot. People say why will you barefoot when I started her and the socks are new each one of those shop was aimed at a neighbor or a friend, an innocent. I couldn't take time to put my shoes on. I had to get over there as fast as I could. I took what was essential about a minute left if she could go ahead but I guess what I want to tell your listeners today are you know God call God calls people.

When God calls you answer that call. And I'm not talking about just me but God call people like Julie workman he got shot through the brush. She was emergency room nurse. She was able to get up and try tourniquet on a life in her interchurch God call going with you.

Retired Marine. He got he started yelling out he got shot five times the Started yelling out hallelujah hallelujah even in their praise God and the started ordering people what they needed to do in the church to save their lives and then went a little seven euro girl came up going I'm scared well is Stephen Williford he's brought you by the Second Amendment right Second Amendment. No giant player there you go and let God.

Jesus junkets come and ride up with insanity of God's heart to thank you so much. Listen listen to that fixing the proceeds. Thank you Stephen God bless,
