Sitting among rows upon rows of spectator seating week after week …

Have nothing to do with church as the New Testament commands it.

So how do we help folks get out of this trap?

We need to boldly share our stories of relational participatory church as actually commanded in the New Testament, and what we’ve learned along theway …

To encourage others that they can indeed begin to be the church once again.

Otherwise, most people have no idea that it’s possible to leave spectator “church” behind …

And start gathering in living rooms and other places were life naturally happens, to minister one to another for the mutual building up of each other.

But how can you expect that to happen …

Unless we openly tell of our own journeys and experiences?
