The Way Maker A Street Called Straight

This book is a powerful testimony of a man who found salvation and hope through Jesus Christ after 30 years of drug addiction. His name is Frank DeBrino and as you read his story, you will find encouragement and strength to overcome whatever struggles you may have. Frank had a life changing experience at Bible Tabernacle Church in CA where he accepted Jesus as his Lord and Savior. The journey to recovery from addiction was long and hard but in the end the "Maker found a way." Today Frank has been called as a visionary and a prophet to the nations of the world: Mexico, Spain, Portugal, France, etc. He will soon be appearing on TBN, CBN and CNN. One day soon there will be a movie about his life and when it happens it will be for the glory of God. Frank DeBrino was born in Bronx, NY in 1954. He moved to Norwood, NJ where he served as an altar boy for 8 years at the Immaculate Conception Catholic Church. He played basketball and baseball with the Philadelphia Phillies baseball school in Ft. Lauderdale, FL and some football and was considered by several universities for draft. He also attended Fairleigh Dickinson College in Old Tatpan, NJ. However, after his ordeal, Frank chose a life of servitude to the Lord who saved him. He now spends his time equipping and teaching others who may be trapped in the seemingly never-ending cycle of drug addiction. He currently resides in Deerfield Beach, Fl with Donna his wife of 9 years who is a Messianic Jewish believer.

Straight Outta Darkness is a story for God’s glory. One of the key principles of a successful addiction recovery is to bear witness of your own to give hope, encouragement and strategies to those in the trenches and battlefields of it. This book tells the story of Faith Love’s fall into the clutches of crack cocaine addiction and the miracle of her release from it. Being the product of a broken, dysfunctional family and often-times debilitating poverty, Faith sought love and acceptance on the streets of a tough Chicago neighborhood filled with an underbelly of crime and drug infestation. It was here that over the course of her young adulthood she became a violent gang member, had two babies, and got strung out on crack cocaine. She lost her home, her children to DCFS, and her dignity. This book is her redemption story, and it began when she became accountable to Jesus. His unexpected voice brought her to her knees and His love led her on the path to victory where she remains today (18 years and counting!) to tell this story for God’s glory.

Statistics on church growth reveal some startling facts: Overall church attendance in America is declining. The number of those who claim they are done with churches is growing. Those who list “none” as religious affiliation are increasing. After COVID-19, some are reluctant to return to church services in buildings. What if you had a way to make disciples for Jesus in your neighborhood? Is there a way to reach those who have left the churches or who will not go back to a church building? Yes. Making Disciples Through Home Assemblies can show you how. The book is based on the biblical patterns of the first-century disciples who were highly effective in disciple-making in obedience to Jesus’ command to make disciples and be His witnesses (Matthew 28:18–20 and Acts 1:8). Studying Acts and other New Testament verses, the authors show that those disciples believed that making disciples and growing the Kingdom of God was the number one priority. The authors also show that individuals met in homes in the absence of church buildings and that any believer can become a disciple-maker for Jesus. Making Disciples Through Home Assemblies contains biblical rationale for home assemblies, material that can be used for training yourself and others to lead a home assembly, and the biblically based study guide for your home assembly meetings is included. The material in this book has been extensively tested for over two years with audiences of diverse ages, and many individuals have been successful in creating their own home assemblies and making disciples for Jesus across the United States. Now you too can start a home assembly and teach others how to become disciples for Jesus.
