Van Wyk's book talks about the choice to defend oneself and others against the unprovoked attacks in today's world. He used a handgun to defend churchgoers in

"For Christians, this is the most important book about guns and self-defense ever written. This takes the issue way beyond theory. Written by a man who lived through a terrorist attack largely because he shot back, the book is the most comprehensive scriptural exploration of the topic ever done." - Joseph Farah, Founder of WorldNetDaily.com

"Shooting Back" is a thorough examination of the whole issue of armed self-defense from a Christian perspective. It deals with burning questions that plague all conscience-driven people:
1. Should people, especially Christians, carry arms?
2. When is it appropriate to defend ourselves and our families?
3. What can Americans do when our freedom to carry arms is legislated away from us?
