Reimagining Church

Each year, one million Christians leave the traditional church. Why? Reimagining Church gives readers language for all they knew was missing in their modern church experience. Join Frank in this constructive follow-up to Pagan Christianity as he shares God’s original intent for the church, where the body of Christ is an organic, living, breathing organism. A church that is free of convention, formed by spiritual intimacy, and unbound by four walls.

 

The Untold Story of the New Testament Church

A unique Bible handbook that weaves Acts and the Epistles together chronologically . . . creating one fluid story. This epic volume gives readers a first-hand account of the New Testament drama that is riveting and enlightening. It includes dates, maps, and background information about the people, the cities, and the events of the first-century church using a "you-are-there" approach.



Pagan Christianity

This volume makes an outrageous proposal: That most of what we Christians do in our churches has no root in the New Testament! It rather has its origin in pagan culture long after the death of the apostles. As shocking as that sounds, Frank proves his point by documenting every claim he makes. Fully footnoted, this is the first book ever penned that documents the full story of our modern church practices.

Rethinking The Will of God

Many Christians have agonized over the quest for "God's perfect will" for their lives.

Bethany: The Lord's Heart for His Church (eBook)

Beautiful, heart-stirring message on what the Lord is after in His people today. This 25-page book is a transcript of a talk Frank delivered to an organic house church in Florida. It traces the Lord's steps to the one and only place on earth that received Him during His earthly life.

 


Straight Talk to Pastors (eBook)

The Scene: Thirty pastors ruling over ten churches in Santiago, Chile invite one man from the United States to speak to them about church life and church leadership. The Result: A high-drama, edge-of-your-chair message and a hair-raising question-answer session on church leadership, eldership, and authoritarian abuse that lasted the better part of an entire day! What some have called "the most remarkable church council ever to occur on South American soil," this book contains the entire transcript of that meeting.
