Simple Church – putting a number on it…

Ever feel like you are the only one? Simple Church, Organic Church or House Church is no longer thought of as some fringe, obscure or illegitimate expression of the Church made up of hippies and those too strange to belong to traditional christian churches.  Let me take that back... some of us are strange.  However, there is a longing amongst many believers today for something more than the status quo, more than church attendance.  There is a growing desire [...]

Shared life…

Today I played golf for the first time in 1 1/2 years.   I was invited by someone in my church who loves golf and lives on the 6th fairway at Beau Rivage.  My Dad was home, so the three of us hit the links.  It was the most awesome weather; great temperature with a nice breeze.  Now I'm not going to give Tiger Woods a run for his money, so I don't take things too serious.  But, [...]

ReThink Church: Pt 3 – What is Community?

In this 3rd week of rethinking church we are looking at The church as a community.  The word community itself tells us something about the church.  It is a common unity. "And all that believed were together, and had all things common..."     Acts 2:44 Throughout the scriptures we find the community of God's people who together share their faith and lives in common.  The description God most often gives to this community of believer and [...]
