I see an army part 7

“The latest research reveals that 3.3 billion people have never heard the name of Jesus one time. I love simple church because it makes church accessible to the greatest number of people. It doesn’t require a professional or a building or a charismatic personality to lead a simple church...

We teach people to be a servant leader who raises up others to carry the torch from the beginning. This is a new style of leadership that requires serving behind the scenes, being secure enough to be a coach to new leaders without position or title. The goal of a simple-church-planting movement is not being an up-front pastor or elder, but being a spiritual father or mother to a movement of elders and church planters...

There is still spiritual authority being exercised, but it is authority based on relationship. It is apostolic not hierarchical.”
You see bones I see an army, Floyd McClung

Something is happening across Britain today: a new kind of church is beginning to appear; increasing numbers of christians (recent research suggests between 40 & 100,000) are starting to gather in homes, colleges and work places. Living out a 24-7 faith, they are missionally focused with a 'go to them' dynamic instead of a 'come to us' invitation. These communities are small, fluid, organic, reproducible and most of all simple; so simple that any believer would respond by saying "I could do that!"

The aim of this site is to connect, report and resource these new groups. If you'd like to know more check out the vision page.
