"In these days of individualistic and consumerist Christianity, it is so refreshing to read such an insightful and spiritually uplifting study that focuses on the ways that His gatherings of church can bring delight to the Builder of the Church. I would wish every home church to receive the depth of insight that Frank presents in these studies of the four encounters Jesus had in Bethany."

"I had been reading John's Gospel and F.F. Bruce's commentary on John. The thought came to my heart, "Bethany was a very special place to the Lord." About a week later, Frank's new eBook, Bethany: The Lord's Desire for His Church, was released! What a precious book this is! Jesus was rejected pretty much across the board - except in Bethany. Frank shows that all churches should be Bethanies."
