If your church banned concealed carry. . .
In my state churches have the discression to allow concealed carry if they want; so with that in mind, If your church banned concealed carry would you:
_ continue to attend the church,
_Change churches to one that allowed cc.,
_ banning concealed carry not a real issue to you.
Thanks for your responses.
to everyone, there have been several replies, but not answers. to those who have answered thank you, to all the others I need either a change churches, not change, or no issue. I generally accept the I would be praying about it to be a change. Thanks. This is for a potential Sunday morning message illustration.

Unless they installed metal detectors at the entrances it wouldn't concern me in the least!

I can't vote on the choices given. My church is a small town, conservative church. If members knew I concealed carry, they'd probably ask to see what it is so that we could compare pistols.

Unfortunately you would be breaking the law, and you would be in danger of losing your CLP.

That actually depends on the state you live in.
As far as whether I would leave to find another church that does not ban CCW...
If I believe the teachings of the church to be correct then I may try to change the policy but would not change just because of the CCW rule.

I would have to say it's not an issue with me "anymore". All our services are guarded by uniformed & plain clothes LEOs. (Uniformed officers outside & plainclothes officers inside.)
We also have a private school on campus. There are several of us that do CC. But, all the LEOs are fine with that.
LEOs are out to catch BGs around here. They really aren't interested in honest citizens who choose to exercise their "RIGHTS".

Very interesting question. Folks are very quick to stop patronizing a store, can't wait to see the answers.

It wouldn't happen at my church as they actively promote CC, but if it DID happen, I'd start praying about where God was leading me...
There'd have to be some sort of monumental sea change that would upset a lot about the church I attend for that to happen...
