Redefining Church

I had an intereting conversation with a fellow Elder today. We were both talking about Church Growth. What our perspectives were on where the Church is going.

Right now our Church is a pretty standard Sunday Morning or Saturday Night Big Box church service. In other words we all gather together, Worship, and our Pastor delivers the Sermon. I told my fellow Elder that I always think there will be a need for a "Big Box" church meeting.

I think it would be neat if a Church would allow the flexibility of "Big Box" or "Home Group" meetings on an either, or or Both mentality. In other words, having a vital part of the church not necessarily enter into the Physical church building but be diffused in the Homes throughout our community.

We are going to end up there eventually, why not start thinking that direction now?
