Publisher's Synopsis
Deceitfulness, false witnesses, and hypocrisy are rampant in many churches today. Church leaders at every level are straying from God's Word, creating their own paths that are far from the path of righteousness. Rev. Shoaf has had firsthand experiences with this corruption and shares the details in this book, The Prophetic Rant of An Exiled Apostle: A Cathartic Letter to an Open Church. The Prophetic Rant of An Exiled Apostle: A Cathartic Letter to an Open Church, written from the perspective of a senior pastor who lived it himself, analyzes and exposes the fallacies three church elders used to pervert biblical justice. This personal memoir serves as a testimony of the injustices suffered when false accusations were made by the church elders against Pastor Shoaf. Luke 18:3 states, "'Give me justice from my adversary!'" and that is exactly the cry of the Spirit within Rev. Shoaf. Through writing this piece, he has allowed his voice to be magnified so that the truth prevails. By using the Word of God as evidence to support his claims, Pastor Shoaf releases the pain he endured and finds peace knowing he is righting wrongs for the good of the greater body of Christ. Rev. Michael F. Shoaf has been a senior pastor of two churches for fifteen years and is now the founder and leader of His Name IS John Ministries as well as The Business Succession Wealth Consulting Group, where he helps business owners better steward their wealth to honor God. Michael earned his BS in political economics at Cal-Berkeley, his MBA from UCONN, a CIMA(R) designation through the Yale School of Management, and CEPA(R) marks from the Exit Planning Institute. He can be contacted through his website, hisnameisjohn.com.
