House2House Website
After a 10 year hiatus, it is very exciting to see the House2House website running again. Tony and Felicity Dale, along with others, first started a print magazine in 2000. Their subsequent website, books, and training have had a tremendous impact on our own simple/house church journey through ...

Let's catch up! We trained a guy in this region of Nigeria whom I only refer to as 'J' for security reasons. He works in a challenging region where persecution, killing, and kidnapping of Christians is common. He is good at taking key concepts, like this graphic, and putting it in a format where it is easy to pass along.
House to House - It's That Simple
In one crisis-ridden area of Northern Nigeria, the following simple document is releasing the church to catch fire in the midst of persecution. Even militant Muslims are finding the simple joy of finding and following Christ. The document: Within this framework the church is free to be about t...

Mike, I am still here and appreciate your concerns and questions. We have seen a great deal of fruit in children growing up in this environment from the standpoint of these young people discovering at a young age that they 'are the church' and have much to share when the church gathers together. Many develop a profound sense of ownership of their faith and their church experience. Regarding multiplication, this has been more difficult to attain in our comfortable western culture (though we continue to see this profoundly in other contexts). But multiplication does not have to mean 'leaving the nest.' In many cases, people and families remain rooted in their parent group while simultaneously planting daughter groups. Sometimes, they meet less often with the parent group but they still remain connected.
House Church Basics Pt. 7: What About Children?
This is usually the first question asked when it comes to house churches: “What about children? The implication, of course, is that children are going to lose out if there is not an array of formal children’s programs to teach and take care of the children. The assumption is that the “Sunday Sch...

Planting seeds of the word of God, as God leads, is always good and never futile. He calls each of us to sow in different fields. I appreciate your faithfulness and also your encouragement that God is the one who makes things grow. Let's keep planting and watering without regard for recognition!
Kingdom Movements in the USA
The excellent magazine, Mission Frontiers, has devoted an entire issue (available online) to movements in western contexts, specifically the USA. Some of the articles are good for sparking ideas and dreams of what can happen as God releases his church ‘out of the building’ and into the process ...
Tim, your evaluation seems sound. For myself, I feel the best way to challenge and correct the status quo in church and in mission is to live the commands of Christ myself and let the fruit of that lifestyle speak for itself. “Brothers, join in imitating me, and keep your eyes on those who walk according to the example you have in us (Phil 3:17).” I am sure you feel the same way. God help us to be faithful.
