The books
Four books. One message.
Every one of them is a door out of performance religion and into the empowering grace of Christ’s finished work — written for Kingdom leaders and for anyone who’s tired of religion and hungry for God Himself.

Carriers of His Presence
Exposing the compromised priesthood and political spirit by raising up a people of His Presence.
Our broken world is desperate for the Presence of God — and the modern church has been distracted by self-help, celebrity, and entertainment. Mark was on the fast track to building the “successful” church when God brought it all to an end and showed him he’d put his own ministry above God’s personal Presence. This is the wisdom that came out of that season, and a call to take up the mantle of David.
- Rediscover the life and joy of an authentic relationship with God
- See from God’s perspective and stay in sync with His direction
- Avoid the leadership mistakes that cause burnout and disillusion
- Break free from the religious snares that block a real encounter with the Holy Spirit
Paperback. Every copy ordered through Mark’s store is signed by hand before it ships.

About the author
A messenger who walked away from the machine.
Mark Casto is an author, speaker, and host of The Mark Casto Program. After years of pastoring inside a building, he stepped out of the four-walled model to help the church recover what it was always meant to be: a family gathered around a table, carrying the Presence of God. He is the founder of The Shepherd’s Tent, a 501(c)(3), and lives in Covington, Georgia, with his wife and their four children.

Every one of these reads better around a table — a small group, a family table, the people you’re walking with. And the next one is always announced first in the Letter.
