We currently have five location locally as well as a number of Simple Churches started in the Amazon Rain Forest of Brazil, and in villages in Liberia, West Africa.

There's a Church in the Home!
Many people are looking for a church experience that focuses on relationships and authenticity in their Christian walk. In the book "The Connecting Church ", the author recognizes the need for a deeper, more relational Christianity, "beyond small groups to authentic Christianity. A new structure is beginning to emerge in the form of small relational "house churches. " This model for church has always interested me and it has always been the desire of my heart to see a church model more closely resembling the pattern seen in the book of Acts.

As a pastor for over 36 years I have come to realize that the Church is people in relationship to God and to each other practicing the "one anothers" of scripture.  As you search for your own personal understanding of what the Church is  may I suggest that you consider the simple church/house church concept.  

God Bless You,
