Jesus didn’t limit his ministry to the multitudes who flocked to hear Him.  He regularly ministered in homes.  After gathering and training His disciples, He sent them out to do the same.  In Luke 10, He gave them specific instructions to stay, eat and minister in homes.  The Church was born in a home and followed the same pattern of gathering and scattering.  When persecution arose, Acts 8:1 tells us the believers were “scattered” throughout the entire region.  Yet they continued to preach the Good News everywhere they went and the Church continued to grow (Acts 8:4).  To this day, this is the way the Persecuted Church around the world is growing so rapidly.  It’s spiritual families meeting in homes to worship Jesus.  Each one of our House Churches has its own distinct flavor, but the DNA for “spiritual family” fills them all.  Thus we do a few things together.  First, we read the Bible together.  By this we mean we have a Bible Reading Plan that we love and are each following throughout the week.  It’s comprehensive (covering the entire Bible in 3 years) yet manageable (about a chapter per day) along with being flexible and communal.  On House Church Sundays, we love to discuss what we’re learning.  Anyone can join in at any time!   Additionally, as spiritual families, we value including children in all we do.  We welcome them the same way Jesus did!  While we do not separate them from the adults, we understand short attention spans and encourage parents to bring quiet activities.  Here’s a list of our House Churches.  Pick one and drop in!
