The first was that He gave me the vision to begin a camp. Our church building and property were ideal for a summer day camp. Along with a host of other things, I taught martial arts in the camp. I also gave demonstrations in the chapels. Since 1984, thousands of boys and girls have heard the gospel and have been taught self-defense. &#8220;The second big event of that year was that I began to teach a weekly class at our church. I named the class, The Valour School of Self Defense. Hundreds of students have attended these classes. Later in 1984, I was called to be the Pastor of the West Park Baptist Church. Today both the church and the Valour School of Self Defense continue to reach out and to train those who are willing to learn.&#8221; <a href=\"http:\/\/westpark-baptist-dev.com\/what-christian-martial-arts-have-done-for-me-2\/\">Read more&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Michael L.
