What if the apostles were alive today? What if they had a front-row seat to the chaos of modern Christianity? What would they say to us? Buckle up. Gospel Zero: Reclaiming the Radical Message of Grace is here to shake the religious world like an over-caffeinated prophet. Bestselling author Andrew Farley and renowned storyteller John Lynch echo the voices of God's messengers in the 21st century—delivering fiery, blistering, and hilarious letters to the modern church. Think The Screwtape Letters meets The Shack —but bolder, sharper, and completely unfiltered. With wit that bites and grace that heals, Farley and Lynch bulldoze legalism, torch religious guilt, and unleash the shocking, scandalous, untamed gospel of Jesus. This book will infuriate and inspire. It will shatter sacred cows and spark righteous laughter. It will make you rethink everything you thought you knew about faith, forgiveness, and freedom. If you've ever felt like Christianity has lost its way—buried under a mountain of rules, rituals, and recycled sermons—this is your wake-up call. Brace yourself. The apostles have something to say, and they aren't pulling punches. This isn't just a book. It's a breakthrough—a seismic shift in what Christianity was meant to be. Are you ready? "Imagine if C.S. Lewis' The Screwtape Letters had a snarky cousin who teamed up with The Shack for a wild road trip through the modern church." -Bart Millard, singer/songwriter for MercyMe We didn't write this book because the world needs one more Christian title on the shelf. We wrote it because something has gone missing. We look around at today's church culture and wonder—where's the wild, untamed grace we read about in Scripture? Where's the freedom that once flipped the religious world upside down? What happened to the simple, scandalous message that made legalists furious and brought hope to the hurting? Gospel Zero was born from that ache. That question. That fire. What if the apostles showed up today? Not in robes and sandals, but on podcasts and Instagram, speaking directly to the confusion, fear, performance, and burnout so many believers feel. What if they could cut through the noise with piercing clarity—and a little humor—to remind us what this whole thing is really about? This book is fiction, yes. But it's also painfully real. It's satire with soul. Wit with purpose. It's the gospel, stripped of centuries of clutter and polished nonsense. Whether you're wrestling, disillusioned, or just done with the religious treadmill of trying harder, we wrote this for you. And if you're curious, hopeful, or clinging to grace by a thread—we wrote it for you too. We believe the apostles still have something to say. And once you hear it, you might never look at Christianity the same way again. See you inside the pages. —Andrew Farley & John Lynch The Gospel has gone missing. We went looking. What we found was grace—wild, untamed, and long buried under piles of performance, guilt, and churchy platitudes. Gospel Zero isn't just a book. It's a rescue mission. Think of it as a series of scorching-hot letters from the apostles—beamed into the modern age with Wi-Fi, wit, and zero tolerance for legalistic nonsense. This is where ancient truth meets modern chaos, where Jesus's finished work is finally allowed to speak without being edited by guilt or watered down by tradition. It's The Screwtape Letters meets The Babylon Bee meets The Shack—only bolder, sharper, and funnier. You'll encounter: Grace that kicks down the doors of shame. - Forgiveness that actually means what it says. - A gospel so pure, it might just ruin religion for you forever. All delivered with biting satire, holy irreverence, and the kind of laugh-out-loud moments that make you say, "Did they really just write that?" So if you're burned out, fed up, or quietly wondering why faith feels more like a job than a joy—this book is for you. Let the apostles speak. Just... maybe don't read it during your small group. Things could get awkward. The Gospel was never meant to be safe. Or boring. Or buried under self-help sermons, performance pressure, and polished church talk. What if the apostles were alive today—with smartphones, streaming platforms, and front-row seats to the religious circus we call modern Christianity? What would they say to the guilt-ridden, the burned-out, the grace-starved, and the over-churched? Gospel Zero is their answer. Bestselling author Andrew Farley and renowned storyteller John Lynch deliver a fictional series of blazing letters straight from the mouths of modern-day apostles—packed with punchy truth, laugh-out-loud satire, and a grace so shocking it should come with a warning label. Inside these pages: Spiritual scorekeeping gets tossed in the shredder. - Guilt trips are canceled. - And the finished work of Jesus finally gets the spotlight it deserves. If you've ever wondered, Is this really what Jesus had in mind? —then t
