Few works of the enemy are as destructive to the Body of Christ as a church split. Once a wedge is driven into the heart of a congregation, the result is usually bitterness, grief, even hatred among those who are called to live together in love.
Wounded flocks and broken pastors have had little direction for the road back to wholeness until now. As author Francis Frangipane shines the bright light of Scripture into the shadows of division, he exposes the demonic curse at work. He explains what to do if your church is caught in this turmoil and reveals biblical safeguards against future strife.
If you have experienced strain in the past or recognize a storm brewing in the present, let A House United guide you to restoration and peace. Frangipane shows you how to obtain once more the unoffendable heart of Jesus Christ.
