Ammah Christy said… Hi Dave, your gathering that meets in Linthicum, do you gather together with the Barrs? Grace and peace, Joanne
Ammah Christy said… Hi Dave, there's another organic gathering that meets in the Linthicum area with a husband/wife coordinating team, James and Cindy Barr.
My husband and I were in both a more organic group and also in an institutional church. The organic group was too diverse to survive, and both my husband and I know with confidence that God intends for us to stay in the institutional church we're already in.
But we both also are feeling a growing pull to "do a new thing," at least new for us. I don't know when that change will take place, but in the meantime we have longed for more meaningful connection with other believers, and there are a few of our friends who feel the same way.
What has your experience been like in the group you gather together with? What is your group like?
Ammah Christy said… Hi again Dave. Thanks for your reply with information about your group. I don't mind that you meet in a building rather than in a house. for me a house is more than a property where a individuals live together. My concept includes house, meeting halls and intentional communities. Where people meet together in one mind, to engage in activities that grow Christ in us, so that he in us gives expression of the church. I am in the process of starting full kingdom preaching assemblies[church] alongside intentional christian communities in which there are house meetings. I call it The Intentional organic christian community. the idea is to create a place of corporate and organic platforms of ministry to cater for people to give and recieve ministry in a way that expresses the 5fold ministry and allows the believer to grow at his pace and be able to give ministry that is relevant to their spiritual maturity. I feel that house church is not an end in itself but a means to an end. and the church is not to be a place of body ministry only, but a place that allows for spiritual maturity, therefore the ministry gift are necessary with all the titles. The key is to move towards being , the true expression of the new testament church entering into the promised land.
