Unfazed and unshaken.
Kevin Kihara, 37, a pastor of Christian Forgiveness Ministries in San Francisco, was speaking out against the transgender ideology in Santa Ana on Wednesday when the unhinged aggressor came at him, brandishing what appeared to be a firearm.
Kihara, who was speaking into a mic on a sidewalk, then calmly looks and sees the person - who is out of shot - fast approaching.
"What are you going to come attack me now?" Kihara says bluntly.
"I should," the tattooed person responds.
But Kihara barely flinches, holding the mic and then blasting back at the menace, exclaiming: "Hey man, it's up to you if you want to pull that on me. God bless you."
The furious person then turns away and marches into the distance yelling profanities at the church leader.
"Shut the f--- up!" the suspect screams, fleeing the scene.
Unfazed, Kihara keeps preaching.
"So you just threatened me with a gun," he says. "You just pulled a gun on my face. Man, Lord have mercy on you," he continued. "This means you don't even know who you are. I still love you though. Even you pulled a gun on me, I still love you, I still bless you."
The video, which was initially posted to Christian Forgiveness Ministries' YouTube channel, generated plenty of responses, with most commenters heaping praise on Kihara's coolness in the face of a potential life and death situation.
"I'm thrilled your [sic] still alive. You're super courageous. I pray for your protection," wrote one commenter. "What a legend," wrote another.
Fox News Digital reached out to Christian Forgiveness Ministries for comment but did not receive a response.
"God does not appreciate what you're doing right now," she says, among other points.
"He knows that I'm preaching the truth," Kihara says. Their back and forth lasts for about four minutes before she eventually walks off.
The founder of American Veterans Archaeological Recovery spoke with Fox News Digital about a recent veteran-led excavation at Camden Battlefield in South Carolina.
