Don't try too hard to keep your hands on it or steer it. Just wait and see where the Lord directs you and follow Him.<br /><br />If you need any help or anything I'm happy to do so.<br />Keith Gileshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00328300571647154699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9926207.post-35343828157396399362015-03-06T15:48:20.654-08:002015-03-06T15:48:20.654-08:00Been feeling the urge to get closer to fellow Chri...Been feeling the urge to get closer to fellow Christians and also spread the Gospel to others. Thing is we don't feel a "Conventional" Church is the right way to do it. We are looking for an intimate family/friendship. <br /><br />My Husband feels less pulled to Church and the word than I but said if we could just have People over for dinner and hang out while letting the study and conversation happen naturally he would love to do it. He doesn't want to be the leader as he feels he doesn't know enough about the word. (He has Dyslexia and has a hard time reading. So his confidence is lacking.) I personally like leading in a hosting a gathering sort of way. Like just keeping things organized but don't feel like there should be any real leading going on scripture wise as only the Holy spirit can really do that. Or maybe more like everyone can lead when called to do so. I guess o.O Sorry if that doesn't make sense.<br /><br />How ever we have nothing like this around us, To sort of show us how to step into it. What would you recommend for us as a starting point?<br /><br />His Father and Mother are new Pastures of a Spanish speaking Church and we used to attend a None denominational Church where we almost joined Leadership to start our own Art's Ministry but then seen some things that caused us to pull away.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9926207.post-14311142729150953802011-11-05T12:14:26.528-07:002011-11-05T12:14:26.528-07:00Nice blog!

It doesn't matter if they study the KJV, but I do object to the attitude that it's the "only correct version". Mainly because it's not based on any scholarship of any kind. It's a claim based on spiritual pride and not much else. <br /><br />I'm not sure I understand the second part of your comment/question regarding the building. Are you asking if there's a scripture about the New Testament church meeting in buildings? Or are you asking if the Church today should meet in a building or not? <br /><br />If you can give me more details I'd be happy to respond.Keith Gileshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00328300571647154699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9926207.post-27468762812125632142011-07-24T01:35:01.622-07:002011-07-24T01:35:01.622-07:00MY SO AND HIS FAMILY HAVE A HOME CHURCH.

This is a great blog and needed message....Hey bro! <br />This is a great blog and needed message. I have enjoyed reading your stuff and exploring the OC House Church network website since I have moved here to SoCal. My wife and I moved from South Carolina to attend Fuller Seminary in Pasadena about 10 months ago. After much prayer and calling, we were led to start another house church with a couple we met here. We had been a part of an amazing house church in SC and just couldn't go back! So far in the LA area, we have not found many other organic churches with whom to partner. Every since I read "Houses that Change the World" when I was 18 I have been convinced of the need for real partnership and networking among house churches. Would you point me to anyone here in the LA area? Is there anyway our church could be involved with the OC network? I would love to talk more with you about it... like you said I am just craving to talk with likeminded people! We have about 15 people meeting now in Pasadena and we will probably multiply into two groups this fall. Looking forward to hearing from you bro!<br /><br />Matthew BlantonMatthewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07692417037440600035noreply@blogger.com
