Contact & FAQ's
Due to the hundreds of emails that come in on a daily basis, it is impossible for Francis to arrange meetings and answers the many questions he receives and yet continue to do the work that the Lord is leading him to do. He hopes that you understand that we cannot answer individual and personal emails. Francis encourages you to contact a local pastor in your area for answers to your theological questions.
Below is a list of “frequently asked questions” that may help:
How can I correspond or set up a meeting with Francis?
Francis’ time is limited as he continues to do the work the Lord has called him to do. In order to disciple men effectively, he has to say “no” to the masses. Once again, he strongly encourages you to meet with a pastor in your area.
How can I get Francis to speak at an event?
Click on the Speaking Tab on the Website and then “speaking requests.” Please note the criteria he looks at for an event prior to submitting.
How can I get in contact with Francis for a book endorsement?
Francis is asked to endorse several books/ministries each week. It is not that he thinks they aren't valuable or worth endorsing, but rather he doesn't have the time to investigate/read each thoroughly to endorse with integrity. Because of this, he is choosing not to endorse anything at the present time.

Can I get Francis to mentor/disciple me?
Due to logistics and a full schedule, Francis is discipling men in his community and is currently maxed out.
