As this was in West Virginia I wouldn't be surprised if everyone involved is cheating on/with everyone and lots of meth might be in play as well.

A snake handling oneness church with connections in W.Va. imploded several years ago because the pastor was cheating on his wife with another minister's wife, and the pastor's wife was having an affair with said minister, several others in the church were having affairs with multiple persons, and everybody was on meth. Pastor I think went to jail, and their church youtube page became a minor sensation.

Most people who carry do so in case they run into people like this.
Article says it was an argument over a themed t-shirt the youth pastors wife wore. YP's wife quoted as saying argument wasn't about an affair

So the pastor is telling me about an incident that had just happened where his wife is looking out her window and sees a man in the back yard. She calls her daughter who also carries and tells her to 'get over here and bring your pistol".

The pastor's wife goes out, with her pistol, and confronts the man! She thought he was a prowler. He was a phone repair man who was there on legitimate business!

About that time the daughter shows up with her pistol! So now we have two scared women, holding guns on this guy, he is about ready to wet his pants, and then the pastor shows up!

He deescalates the problem but the guy is almost crying because these two women, carrying guns and waving them around looked like they were going to shoot him!

Now, if a pastor's wife and daughter were quick to pull guns in a situation like this, think about some of the knuckleheads in these congregation who think they are relatives to the sacketts!

I absolutely believe that some of these churches are going to be sued over things like this when some demon possessed person comes into a service, some over anxious usher with a .40 auto pulls it on him, and then the fun is going to begin.
What if this had not been a pastor's wife but just some lady in any neighborhood? By Monterrey's logic, nobody should have a gun at home to defend themselves because someone might be mistaken for an intruder and shot. "Message of peace", would apply in every home.

I can see that out of a snake handling church. I doubt it is as extreme as the picture you paint, in this case, however. Not defending these folks by any means. Didn’t even know they had started a church there. In southern WV, there is every strain of Pentecost you could imagine. If someone starts a church, it’s typically because something is preventing them from being satisfied where they were attending, as opposed to an actual need for a church in that area. Maybe those in this congregation will return to their home churches now.

I agree.
