Leading Lazarus by Pastor Jared Fabac Publishes September 6 in More Than 400 U.S. Retailers

The debut book from the Virginia-based pastor arrives with a free 8-week digital transformation companion for readers who want to apply the eight frameworks in their own church, business, or family.

CHESAPEAKE, Va., Sept. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Leading Lazarus: 8 Transformational Frameworks to Resurrect Your Culture by Pastor Jared Fabac releases nationwide on Sunday, September 6, 2026, distributed to more than 400 retailers.

The book gathers the eight leadership frameworks Fabac has refined over 20 years of executive leadership and organized them into a single sequence any leader can apply. Fabac pressure-tested every framework against real teams before it made it into the book.

"I didn't set out to write a leadership title. I set out to answer the same question that I keep hearing in almost every room I walk into. How do I get my people healthy?" said Pastor Jared Fabac. "I hear this question from churches, businesses, and dinner tables. The answer to that question are the eight frameworks in this book."

Readers who purchase the book gain free access to app.leadinglazarus.com, a step-by-step 8-week digital transformation experience that walks a leader through applying one framework per week.

"You can read a leadership book in a weekend. You can't rebuild a culture in one. The app makes sure you don't try."

The book is available in hardcover, paperback, ebook, and author-narrated audio. Booksellers can order through their normal channels. Readers can pre-order at leadinglazarus.com.

Early reviewers are already raving about the book's content. Here are some of the recent comments:

"I've read dozens of leadership books. Leading Lazarus is the first one that made me look honestly at the culture I had actually built, not the one I thought I had. The Grace and Truth Matrix alone was worth everything."
Marcus T., Senior Pastor, Atlanta, GA.

"Our team had been operating in the Burned-Out quadrant for two years. We just didn't have a name for it. Once we could name it, we could change it. Six months later, we are genuinely in a different place."
Rachel H., VP of Operations, Nashville, TN.

"I was leading with all truth and almost no grace. My staff were performing but deeply disengaged. This curriculum helped me see what I was doing and gave me practical tools to change it. Our culture now is unrecognizable."
Pastor Kevin L., Lead Pastor, Dallas, TX.
