Good evening! Do you know of anyone who is in the Northeast Texas area? I forgot to ask you this question the other day. God Bless!

Yes. I guess I am doing it right. I will keep on checking it that way. Thank you. Blessings!

Chaplain Nik,
I am wondering if you could not do both? I have heard that Vineyard is open to house churches operating under their banner but you need to confirm this locally. The truth is that many denominations have decided to start church plants simply using the cell church model. But when it comes to growing enough to support various denominational programs, the simple church/house church often is rejected as not being able to come up to snuff. This is not true! Our house church supported foreign missions and local missions, in fact, we could do as well as an institutional congregation because we had no overhead to speak of. All income went to mission of one kind or another. Chaplain Nik is asking about this and I want to tell her that there are organizations who credential simple/house church personnel. One such organization is the National Conservative Christian Church. You can look up their contact number and address at [email protected]
Our fellowship considered these folks when we were deciding what to do about income tax exemption. Also they were local to us. That is, there administrator is. I met him at a House 2 House conference!

CN,

I'm there already, like Lincoln said, with malice towards none! My past institutions contained the Body of Christ or at least parts of it! I am pledged to serve those parts. We will need to bless the people in the IC, not curse them!
It's the institutionism that I'm against. Hopefully, people that know me, know that. I attempted to become a hospital chaplain and got through the first steps of required training before funding was cut for the program.
Question: How tied into the institution are you required to be in order to get the credentials you desire?

Oh, thank you, Nik ~ I've been exceptionally busy of late, nary time to post coherently, or well. So, I pop on in the morning, catch up, then once at night to do the same! My regular schedule will be returning soon. :D

Blessings!

I love the "green for God" thing! Thats right up our alley. Would gladly participate, thanks for asking!

I added some pictures to the photo area. They all start with DSC cause like a doofus, I didnt realize I could name them!
