SIMPLE CHURCH.
House church.
Small group.
Organic church.
Free church.
Whatever you call it, the concept is to let go of controlling the Kingdom of God and let Jesus build His church, as He promised He would do. This is our goal, it is my priority, and it is all that we are about. All around the world, from China to Iran to Canada to Columbia, and even in the United States, the Lord is doing amazing things in the house church movement. I think part of what excites me about this move of God is the purity of motive and level of trust involved. Motives are purer when no one gains professionally from the growth of a church, when there is no power to be had. In the organized church, the pew sitters trust the staff and leaders, but in a simple church, everyone has to trust everyone. Plus, this kind of church is the only kind there was in the New Testament era! And it was enough for them.
When the church was young, she was free.
