5.0 out of 5 stars MIDWEST BOOK REVIEW, May 28, 2003

This review is from: The Stronghold Of God (Paperback)

I loved the author's introduction and I quote, "Has God provided for us a Christian equivalent to the ark He provided Noah?" Ah! Now that caught my attention, could it be so, I wanted to know and I wanted to know where this stronghold of protection was. I was interested!

Francis Frangipane takes you out of pretense into reality at the onset of this work; explaining our walk to Horeb, where we are allowed to be real with God and our feelings about what is happening to us. We breath a sigh of relief knowing we can release our frustrations and fears and we breath in a breath of hope as the author assures us that God has a place of safety from all we are experiencing.

The author takes you on a journey, using men of old from the Bible as examples to bring you out of the many negative emotions that are trying to cripple you and leads you to a knowledge of knowing how to run under the shelter of God's stronghold of protection during trials and tribulations that life brings upon us all.

I would do this book an injustice to try and review the countless helps Mr. Frangipane gives the reader to obtain this desired result, but believe me he
definitely gives you all the information you need to run into God's Stronghold.

If you are a Christian that is feeling overwhelmed by the world that we are living in; if you are seeking the promises of a God who loves you,and the protection His Word speaks of, then this book is for you.

We all need a safe harbor, and for those that are His, there is no safer place than the Stronghold of God. This book will show you the way. It is a journey you will want to take.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent read for new or "mature" Christians., August 28, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Stronghold Of God (Paperback)

This is an excellent book for the new or "mature" Christian. It covers many topics about which everyone needs to be reminded or educated -- the power of praying in His name, the power of the spoken word, and why we should never give up (among other subjects). I would recommend this book to everyone. The added appeal to this book is that it can be read in "bites", as chapters are 5 - 10 pages, and the subject matter of the chapter can stand alone. A great book for everyone!

This review is from: The Stronghold Of God (Paperback)

As always Francis Frangipane knows how to allow the Holy Spirit to lead him as he shares some great truths from God. The chapter on Forgiveness is exceptional! I would make this book required reading for all staff and leaders in the church, no matter what denomination! It is one of those books that is very hard to put down even during your second and third reading. It has helped me through a most difficult time in my ministry. GET IT NOW!
