Hebrews 10:24-25 (ESV)
24 And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works,
25 not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.

We do not desire to preach - House Churches.
It is not our goal to produce a bunch of - House Churches.

What we do want to preach and produce is - Growing Kingdom Community that manifest into “one anothering” disciples that are stirring each other up to deep intimacy with and mission for Jesus Christ.

Spirit led disciples produce the fruit of presence-filled love-expressing power-manifesting Kingdom Community that advances the glory of God in neighborhoods and nations.

House Churches are the fruit of disciples who are filled with the Spirit not the root.

I believe revival will look less like big meetings in large facilities that are filled with enthusiasm and more like small multiplying gatherings of disciples walking in loving mission together who are infiltrating every place with the gospel.

Ephesians 2:22 (ESV)
22 In him you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by the Spirit.

Ephesians 4:11-16 (ESV)
11 And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers,
12 to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ,
13 until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ,
14 so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes.
15 Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ,
16 from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love.

It takes less power of the Spirit to roar in a packed out room with powerful worship music than it does to lovingly minister in a room with a handful of saints who are trying to daily defeat sin and Satan in the boredom and warfare of everyday life.

I want to encourage you all to rededicate yourself to walking in Spirit led Kingdom Community.
