Publisher's summary
An emergency call, and I rush from my coziness into the dark community where the police have requested a chaplain. Arriving in minutes, I find the family imploding with grief having just discovered their son hanging in the garage. In a moment of unshakable pain, he jumped off the ladder and into eternity. And I will never shake the look in their eyes when I asked why he hadn't called a church.
"Why would he do that?"
Across town, a pool of tears on my kitchen table as an out of town guest feels the weight of his infidelity, despairing that his famished soul finds no refuge and that he has to board a plane to feel fellowship.
"Has your church tried to help you?"
And the Christian leader confesses he hasn't been to church in years. Infighting, backbiting, heartbreaking, frustrating...church.
Though exceptions do exist, the reality is that church in America is failing one life at a time. Somewhere between pathetically predictable and shamefully entertaining, sadly sentimental and rarely authentic, church has become worst of all...godless. Vertical Church points to a new day where God is the seeker, and we are the ones found.
In Vertical Church God shows up, and that changes everything. If you want to experience God as you never have before and witness His hand at work, if you want to wake up to the first thought, "Thank God it's Sunday," if you're ready to feel your heart beat faster as you drive to your place of worship...then devour and digest the lessons of Vertical Church.

Many people see their lives playing out like a movie they cannot control. They have come to feel like spectators watching a story unfold, unable to stop the stampeding consequences.

This book is about getting beyond self-help and blame shifting and changing at the deepest and most profound level...the will.A person's will is what he uses to choose and act.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Why is The Book of Enoch so important to anyone interested in Biblical history? The answer is simple: It is directly quoted in the New Testament by Jude (vv.14-15). Themes of the book referenced in 2 Peter 2:1. Jesus also used content from The Book of Enoch in many of his sermons in Matthew and Luke. In this text, you will hear the word of God through this amazing document. We will take this amazing journey together and learn why this text is not an official book of the Bible.

The book of Enoch was thought to be lost for over 2,000 years until, in 1773, a traveller brought three copies back from Ethiopia. Whether or not this ancient book was actually authored by Enoch, the father of Methuselah and great-grandfather of Noah, is an ongoing debate among historians and theologians. But all recognise the book of Enoch as one of the most important apocalyptic works outside of the Bible.

The Qur'an, believed by Muslims to be the word of God, was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad 1,400 years ago. It is the supreme authority in Islam and the living source of all Islamic teaching; it is a sacred text and a book of guidance that sets out the creed, rituals, ethics, and laws of the Islamic religion. It has been one of the most influential books in the history of literature. Recognized as the greatest literary masterpiece in Arabic, it has nevertheless remained difficult to understand in its English translations.

Life Changing
I absolutely loved this book. It honestly gave me language to the season and the frustration I have with the state of the American church. I loved how humble and how transparent the author was in, evaluating his own heart and process. This gave me hope and it was a breath of fresh air to know that creating and establishing a vertical church is necessary. I could see more however, if you’re contemplating on reading the world, just read it.

Best church book I've read in a while
If you could sum up Vertical Church in three words, what would they be?
James MacDonald really presses every button and rings every bell for anyone who is in church ministry leadership. Everything he said is true and I knew it the moment I heard it. I just had never put it all into words the way he has in the Vertical Church book. Listen to it if you dare and be ready for some inner conversion among those who are intellectually honest about the future of the Christianity in the Western World.
What other book might you compare Vertical Church to and why?
This book has the potential to become a Christian classic so how about "Pilgrim's Progress." This book comes to us at a crossroads in what must be a turn of the tide to church glory or continued fall of the church into the slough of despond.

A EKG for the way I think about Church
This book was even better the second time around. The Holy Spirit brought conviction to me through the testimony and good word of James MacDonald. I will be returning to this book yet again whenever I feel myself apt to drift from God's great purpose for His church: His Glory and renown made manifest among all people!

Incredible Resource
What made the experience of listening to Vertical Church the most enjoyable?
Pastor James McDonalds delivers this message with both conviction and precision! Wow!
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
This is not the kind of audiobook one can simply sit and take in all at once. Too much info. Take your time with it. Nevertheless it's amazing info I'd recommend for anyone to get. Every church needs to hear this!

Filled with Truth
This book is filled with truth about how church should work and grow inspite of what happened to the author and Harvest Bible Chapel. I can almost hear the beginning of the trouble in this book as every example at the end of each chapter is one of their church campuses. Harvest Bible Chapel was a great example of how a church grows when it has its eyes focused on Jesus and how it will implode when it takes its eyes off of Him. This b book is sad to me but still so filled with Truth that its worth listening to.

Great Theology from a great teacher
What did you love best about Vertical Church?
Clear teaching that puts the focus right where it belongs ON GOD!
What did you like best about this story?
The clear and Biblical teachings that lead you away from yourself and to the God that made you.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes I found myself not wanting to move because I was so interested in what was being taught at that moment. Excited to re-listen to this one.

Show me your Glory!
What did you love best about Vertical Church?
Beautiful story of James McDonald's Harvest Church in Chicago, IL. God calls him to seek a different style of church, a Vertical church where God's glory is first and foremost above all else. This is done by fervent prayer! I so want to be a part of a church like this! Lord, let your will be done in my life and the church you plant me in! May your glory resound and your truth be proclaimed boldly!
Who was your favorite character and why?
I envisioned the ladies who were praying for James from his youth
Have you listened to any of Wayne Shapherd’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I have not
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
It made me pray and want to pray more! We are currently in the process of moving and I pray that where ever God plants me will be or will be in the process of being a Vertical Church! And I want to have prayer meetings in my new home!
Any additional comments?
I am recommending this to all my previous pastors!
