ecclesiastical euthanasia

Now there's a thought!

I gave the Church a shot in the arm yesterday at the Ascension Day Communion Service (made the point that you need to be filled with the Holy Spirit to do service in the Kingdom of God). Wondering whether it was the right thing to do? At the end of the evening one of our prophetic ladies said that the Lord showed her that we are "to pray for an anointing against the spirits of rebellion and procrastination in the Church".

I think it was Chemotherapy rather than Euthanasia? Drastic, but possibly not terminal.

Yes there is such a thing as a "science of the sacraments".

becoming organic?

If you have a group of christians/friends (not always the same?!) who are looking at becoming an organic type church you may want to check out this short course put together by some guys in NYC who are making disciples and planting organic churches across the city. It is based largely on Neil Coles Green House material. Click on the pic:

Update: Apologies to those who can't see the pic, not sure why, here's the link: www.thetruthree.com

It's a somewhat different approach than one would expect but we are having some fun with it in our own context.

Hello Alexander,
now the pic apears and I was able to see the good information. Thank you. I also know about Neill Cole, Dick Scoggins, Keith Smith and others. They gave good input for us.
I´m from Germany, Essen, for several times I was on your blog (website)and it was useful for me. I also read about your conversation with David Schäfer, I know him.
The same what you are doing in UK with your site we try to do with a new website: www.hknw.de and with a blog: http://www.oikejo.blogger.de/
Until now their is no bloggerscene for housechurches but for emerging churches. I try to work hard on it.

God bless xou for your work

Richard

silence

Current silence due to reviewing, thinking, praying, planning! Hopefully back in action soon.

It's good to be quiet for a while.

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.
