BLOOMINGTON, MN — Pastor Kris Vallotton, Senior Associate Leader of Bethel Church in Redding, California and co-founder of Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry (BSSM) and Moral Revolution, will release his newest book, Uprising: The Epic Battle for the Most Fatherless Generation in History (Chosen Books), on Tuesday, Oct. 25.
We live in the most fatherless generation in history. Approximately 25 million children in America alone live without their biological father, leading to unspeakable violence, poverty, personal pain and spiritual depravity across the country. After losing his own father at three years old, Vallotton understands the pain and deeply personal longing of these children. He sees how culture attempts to normalize the brokenness and corruption caused by fatherlessness, hoping to relieve the burden and shame of living in sin.

Feeling God’s call of the Malachi Mandate (Malachi 4:5–6), Vallotton rallies spiritual men and declares that now is the time to unite in a battle over men’s souls. Through his new book, Uprising, Kris inspires an awakening to restore physical and spiritual fatherhood. Together, men of the Church will raise a new generation of mighty men of God to proclaim the Gospel and restore the family in a powerful faith legacy that will ignite revival around the world.
In Uprising, Vallotton will discuss:
Restoring fatherhood for the most fatherless generation in history
Becoming a mentor to the next generation of young men
Leading your family and speaking biblical masculinity over sons
Fulfilling the Malachi Mandate: an epic battle for the souls of men
“We must build a bridge over the gaping chasm between fathers and their lineage,” Vallotton writes. “Otherwise, this relational gorge will insulate the blessing to one generation and undermine the inheritance that God designed to grow and increase from generation to generation.”

“This might be the most important book of the decade. Our true Father is yearning to heal fatherlessness in our world. Let’s agree with His plan!”

“Kris Vallotton calls out fatherlessness as the scourge of our time in this excellent book. He doesn’t just identify the problem—he gives real solutions. When I was a police officer in Los Angeles, I saw firsthand the devastation of an entire culture when fathers abandon their role of raising their children. I couldn’t agree more with Kris as he calls men back to our mandate of raising the next generation to love and obey God.”
– Ken Harrison, chairman, Promise Keepers
