Missler has also written the foreword to ''Exo-Vaticana'', a book that uses anecdotal evidence to draw attention to the [[Holy See|Vatican]] and its practices. The book loosely presents the possibility that the Vatican is communicating with extraterrestrial life. <ref name="aliensvat">{{cite web|url=http://www.amazon.com/Exo-Vaticana-Romanus-Vaticans-astonishing-exo-theological/dp/0984825630|title=Exo-Vaticana: Petrus Romanus, Project LUCIFER, and the Vatican's astonishing exo-theological plan for the arrival of an alien savior}}</ref>

A Los Angeles Times article reported that Missler and co-author [[Hal Lindsey]] had plagiarized a portion of [[Miami University]] Professor [[Edwin Yamauchi]]'s 1982 book ''Foes From the Northern Frontier'' in their own 1992 book ''The Magog Factor''.<ref>''[http://articles.latimes.com/1992-07-30/news/vw-4952_1_authors-hal-lindsey-and-chuck-missler Question of Attribution,]'' Los Angeles Times July 30, 1992, by Roy Rivenburg</ref> After the plagiarism was acknowledged, book shipments to bookstores were discontinued and all of the authors' proceeds donated to a ministry.<ref>{{cite web|last=Missler|first=Chuck|title=Letter to Baker Book House|url=http://khouse.org/pdf/TMI_Letter.pdf|work=Koinonia House website|publisher=Koinonia House|accessdate=21 August 2013}}</ref>
