Frank delivers a powerful message on the New Testament narrative. It opens and ends with a short music trailer. The message has been described as “a jaw-dropping, earth-sharking performance.

Frank and Jared field questions about church and ministry. This is the sixth part of a series. Questions answered are: How do I stay energized and avoid burnout in this demanding vocation? I have listened to many of your podcasts and read many of your books but I'd like to make an observation and ask a question. Why is it that nearly all of your podcast conversation partners are "lead pastors" or seminary graduates instead of actual practitioners of the things you teach and emphasize in most of your books and teachings. Why don’t you do episodes on organic church life?

Frank features a Bible-based preacher (and self-professed scholar) who gives an interesting discourse on Paul of Tarsus in the New Testament. Namely, the bad things Paul did, the good things Paul did, and the things that Paul did that were neither good nor bad. One of the biblical references the preacher cites is 1 Corinthians 9:27 in the NASB (1977 version) which reads, “But I buffet my body and make it my slave, lest possibly, after I have preached to others, I myself should be disqualified.”
Part 4 of Josh Khachadourian’s interview with Frank. This episode covers how to deal with criticism, the three types of critics, when you know it’s time to write a book, Frank’s favorite books in his catalog, the main pieces of advice for Christians who want to make an impact in the world, the revolutionary kingdom message, how to find a mentor.
Preface from Frank for this episode: “I was a guest on a show tailored to Christian men in ministry and business. In it, I discussed what I believe to be critical insights for all leaders and creators, both women and men. While the context was faith-based, the substance is universal. And while the specific podcast I was interviewed on was geared toward men, the advice is for everyone. The interview contains some of my best advice for those making a ruckus – ministers, writers, teachers, musicians, artists, teachers, spiritual leaders, etc.”

Lyrics to “The Romance of the Ages”
There's a lady who's pure
Hid in God she’s secure
And she’s waiting to wed her true Bridegroom
She is young and she’s free
Peerless worth she has seen
By His Word she is sure where she came from
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
And she's wearing a white gown that’s spotless
There's no wrinkle no flaw
Found in Christ from before
The whole world ever came into being
New creation behold
Without blemish she glows
With His presence she shows forth His nature
Oooh, it makes me praise Him
Oooh, it makes me praise Him
She’s the pearl of great price
A dear treasure to Christ
And the Spirit is crying for marriage
Sterling beauty men see
By her light they’re set free
And her garments are fragrant with glory
Ooh, it makes me praise Him
Ooh, it makes me praise Him
When He died on that tree
Blood and water redeemed
And His side was the womb where she came from
And a new day will dawn
For all who stood long
And the angels will chorus with laughter
Oh whoa-whoa-whoa, oh-oh
She is the woman God has dreamed of
Before creation
The New Jerusalem is coming
The Lamb is ready to escort her
To His chamber
The Spirit’s calling her to join Him
And it makes me love Him
Oh, whoa
Her heart is captured by His beauty
And His glory
The Bridegroom’s calling her to join Him
Dear lady, can you sense His nearness?
He’s been waiting
The Lamb is ready to appear now
And now the drama it unfolds
All that the prophets had foretold
There stands a lady we all know
Who beams with light and is extolled
And all within her turns to gold
Exquisite stone and pearl from old
When she is one with Him at last
The Bride is ready for the Lamb
She’ll be His wife upon His throne
And she's waiting to wed her true Bridgeroom
Frank's Blog
From Eternity to Here
Lyrics to “Ekklesia”
Well I’ve seen a woman whose beauty is beyond compare
Her garments are eternal and glory shines through her hair
She’s a Bride without blemish, she is holy, pure, and true
She’s the woman God has dreamed of, fragrant with heaven’s dew
And she is radiant with Life
A holy city, the Lamb’s Wife
She’s Ekklesia (Ekklesia)
She’s Ekklesia (Ekklesia)
Well she’s making herself ready for the marriage of the Lamb her Groom
And she is clothed with His image in the newness of Jerusalem
And for her hand He was crucified
And in His bosom she’ll abide
She’s Ekklesia (Ekklesia)
She’s Ekklesia (Ekklesia)
Bridge:
She came out of His side
She’s ekklesia
She came out of His side
She’s ekklesia
She’s the city of God
She’s ekklesia
She’s the city of God
She’s ekklesia
Ekk-le-sia, Ekk-le-sia
Out of His side
Bone of His bone
City of God

From Eternity to Here
Lyrics to “In This Quiet Time With You”
The lamp is burning Lord in my inner man The light softly glowing The air still in the silence of my mind I hear Your voice softly calling
(Chorus)
As I behold Your glorious face Here with a saint or two I will be happy just to touch the heart I love In this quiet time with You Your peace is conquering this troubled heart of mine My cup is overflowing I read again between the lines upon each page Your words of love they fill me
(Chorus)
As I behold Your glorious face Here with a saint or two I will be happy just to touch the heart I love In this quiet time with You The fire is dying my lamp is growing dim The shades of night are falling Your morning light steals across my spirit now Your presence never leaves me
(Chorus)
As I behold Your glorious face Here with a saint or two I will be happy just to touch the heart I love In this quiet time with You And to be once again with you
