Seeking God’s presence in a sacred space as we face a stage and an altar for ministry by the one …

Is so Old Testament.

Why not try the New Testament instead?

Gather as believers in homes and other places where life and community naturally happen …

To express together – each and everyone – the wonderful diversity of Christ’s presence already in you.

Then, by simply letting His life shine through you as we learn to minister to one another out of the many gifts He distributes among us for the mutual building up of each other …

All that other stuff becomes just a distraction.
