Summary of Francis Chan's Letters to the Church

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I left Cornerstone Church in Simi Valley, California, after years of doing great things. I was pastor of Cornerstone for over sixteen years, and I enjoyed every moment of it. However, people are still asking me why I left. #2 I had a crazy idea in 1994: I wanted to start a church out of my house. I was determined to create something different from what I had experienced before.
I wanted all of us to sing directly to God, hear the Word of God deeply, and live holy lives. #3 The elders of the church began to wonder whether their definition of a church was adequate. They questioned the level of love they had for one another, and how everything had grown dependent on one person. #4 I began to see that the church was holding back others who should have been leading. I began to release some of my staff members and elders into new ministries, and they grew from being given the opportunity to pastor.
