Are our churches killing us?
Killer Church walks readers through a Biblical study of life and death at the altar of God, and attempts to answer the question: are our churches making us sick?
The Church has become peripheral to many Christians today, but throughout the New Testament it remains the epicenter of worship. Where have we gone wrong? And how can we recover the spiritual vitality of the Acts Church? Nathan suggests a way forward both theologically and pastorally in the chapters in this book.
Killer Church will inspire weak chuches to be strong robust churches. Nathan articulates biblical truth with a contemporary easy-to-understand style. I highly recommend this writing in today's world.

Nathan Finochio pulls no punches in addressing the challenges God puts before us as we seek to build churches on the right foundations in a fallen culture which does it best to take us in all the wrong directions.

Killer Church reveals how to keep the church anchored to God's purposes rather than our human assumptions and selfish expectations. With brilliant exposition of God's Word and memorable contemporary examples, Nathan Finochio reignites our passion for knowing God in spirit and truth, unleashing His Spirit in all areas of our lives.

Recovering...Timeless Truths
Like an online starter pack meme, Theos Starter Pack: Toward a Recovery of Essential Christianity is designed to provoke a response.
The book includes twenty essays by a motley crew of Bible geeks who are all active in church ministry and teach at TheosU, an online, nondenominational Bible college.
The focus is on recovering the roots of Christianity--recovering the way we teach, recovering the Bible's grand narrative, recovering Christian liberty, recovering apocalyptic, and much more.
Each writer takes into consideration the ageless tradition of Christianity that has been handed down through the centuries, resisting the cultural soup and integrating timeless thinking into an approach that works for the present day, explains Chris Palmer, TheosU dean. This book is a lifeline to pull yourself out of the soup.
You may laugh. You may run to your Bible. You may reach out to one of the writers to share a few choice words. But no matter what, these essayists hope you will be inspired and come away with rich theological insights.
Theos Starter Pack recovers beautiful elements of ancient Christianity that have been lost or shoved aside in modern society. It's food for the souls of those who long for a return to the roots of our faith.
