In our modern dislocated society many are searching for a church experience that offers true Christian sharing, nurturing, and discipleship, in addition to teaching and worship. For many such people the answer is found in the home church: a small, committed group of often diverse people who meet together in homes to pray, eat, sing, study, and share their lives. Rob and Julia Banks have been involved with home churches for over twenty-five years, and they are wonderful guides to the world of the home church. Together they have led seminars and assisted congregations in developing this style of gathering in many parts of the world. Robert is also Professor of the Ministry of the Laity and Executive Director of the De Pree Leadership Center at Fuller Theological Seminary. He is the author of many books, including "Paul's Idea of Community: The Early House Churches in Their Cultural Setting." Julia coordinates the community house in which she and Rob live with a group of students. She is also active as a church planter and in building networks among house churches.

People have lost faith in all collective institutions: government, corporations, the media, and the church. We are in the midst of a spiritual disaster, a flood of biblical proportions, and house churches provide lifeboats for people who are seeking a more authentic, life-giving form of Christian community. Many people remember that the early church started in homes, but they don’t understand that house churches are still a legitimate and viable model today. House churches can create the intimacy so many people are hungry for. They can nurture life-changing discipleship for individuals and create justice-centered communities. Networked house churches can become truly diverse, multi-ethnic communities that spread the Gospel by emphasizing practices over programs. These communities de-center the preacher, opting instead for grassroots organizing, but they are not leaderless — they are leader-full. This book provides an alternative model for denominations and established churches to consider. It will help pastors reconnect with the traditions of community organizing, itinerant preaching, and discipleship training that sparked Methodism and other church movements in the United States. Church Comes Home offers alternative ways to look at some of the problems facing our church and our culture.

Everyone has an interest in housing, because we all live in some kind of home. While there has been plenty of theological reflection on the natural environment, there has been little on the built environment or on a theology of housing. Addressing the urgent problems of housing inequality and affordability, Coming Home proposes a practical and biblical theology of housing provision as an essential part of community building. It explores the purpose of home and housing today, housing and human flourishing, shared living and neighbourliness. It asks how and why the church should contribute to local and national housing policy – and thus to building community life – and offers case studies in community action. Contributors include Samuel Wells, Timothy Gorringe, Niamh Colbrook, Selina Stone, Angus Ritchie and Shermana Fletcher of the Centre for Theology and Community. Collectively, they bring theology and practice together.

Most don’t make it to the deep waters of community. They settle for the shallow end of virtual-screen living. But what if there is a way forward, a way through to the deepest, most satisfying, missional community we have ever experienced? What if life together has less to do with scheduled potlucks and more do to with serendipitous moments with God’s people? In Coming Home, Jon Quitt offers a practical way forward for those who desire a gospel community, rich in love, woven together by pastoral theology that still works on Mondays.

Using hard data, Barna unveils the status quo and argues convincingly that the Church must re-invent itself or face virtual oblivion by the mid-21st century.

If you have had your heart broken by a prodigal, you know the pain of being hurt or disappointed by a loved one ... and the utter despair of seeing them turn away from Christ and the cross. In Will Your Prodigal Come Home? author Jeff Lucas delivers a message that is both challenging and comforting as he outlines the chaotic situations and emotions that families of prodigals face.Lucas acknowledges that every prodigal is different. Some have defied God. Some are lured by drugs, alcohol, or crime. Others have drifted until the emotional and physical distance feels unbearable. Still others are in church pews, with hearts closed to Jesus. Clearly, there are no easy answers. But through understanding, insight into the emotions that form within families, and an acknowledgement of the power of prayer, this book outlines a solid approach to help guide your prodigal home and help you keep your own faith as you wait.

In a world where the church is being ignored, it is time to bring the church to the people, and not the people to the church, says researcher and church strategy consultant Wolfgang Simson. His book Houses that Change the World (originally published in the UK) is widely recognized as a classic of the house church movement. Now revised as The House Church Book, this definitive work offers a comprehensive understanding of the past, present, and future of the house church movement—and the vital role of “ordinary” people in saturating the world with God’s truth.

Get Right Church and Lets Go Home is a book birthed from the spirit of God. Just imagine sitting at the foot of the throne with pen and paper and God telling you why He is concerned for the body of Christ. Just imagine God allowing you to feel His emotions for His people. If you can just picture the cross and the price that was paid and how the price has become so insignificant to the Church, then you can understand what this book is designed to accomplish. The things written in this book come straight from the word of God. The only way to dispute it is to dispute the word, the truth. I often tell my children that the truth is the truth whether you choose to accept it or not. You can analyze it. You can show what you think is a better way. You can even convince a nation that what you say is true, but when Jesus Christ returns and declares the truth, that will be it. All issues will be settled, all arguments will cease, all those who are going to heaven will go, and all those who are not will go to hell. No, it is not a damnation and hellfire book. It is a book written out of love. If God did not love us, He would not bother to reach us. He could just allow us to continue in this worlds deception and end up where many of us are now, separated from Him. The words get right let us know that it is not too late. This book is just a warning to let the Church and the world know that time is not on our side. Time is insignificant to God but it means everything to us. When time ends it ends. Everyone will go to heaven once: some to be judged and some to be welcomed home. This book is designed to help you get home!
