Having read portions of The Churches of God, it's quite helpful and scriptural. The problem some would have is it's counterproductive to a ministry like LSM that would depend to some degree on churches as financial resources. One could assert once a church is no longer a financial resource, it needs to be "replastered" (see Leviticus 14:33-57).
Looks like Kingsley Press has bought the rights to Lang's book The Churches of God. Last time I looked for this book, it was only available used for $50-60. Amazon has the book for $6 on Kindle.

Note that this book was written by Lang after he had witnessed the devastating effects of John Darby and centralized control on the Brethren churches.
