There is a major reformation quietly taking Place in our Western society.
May you find the courage to step out and be the one to Make him known in Your community..
This little booklet provides a guide to anyone wishing to Make his or her Home a Place Where People Meet the living Lord.
Lives are transformed as ordinary People step out in faith to bring hope and healing to the lost and hurting.
Ordinary homes are again filled with the Spirit as we Meet and minister to one another.
A remnant is being gathered and many are finding that the Lord is true to his word and showing up Where two or three are gathered in his name.
The current quiet reformation is a return to the simplicity of the early Church, and many who are leaving institutional Christianity are responding to the call of the Spirit to walk in The Way.
It led to the Dark Ages, and when the light again broke through during the Reformation, this division remained.
He reshaped the Church to be aligned to the Roman State, and the priesthood of the believer was abolished in favor of an earthly caste of clergy ruling over the laity, thus dividing the body of Christ.
However, the foundations of this faith were upended when the Roman Emperor Constantine became a believer.
Nothing, not even persecution, could stop them.
Lives were touched and transformed as ordinary People walked in radical authenticity in faith to be extraordinary royal priests.
As he promised, he showed up wherever two or three were gathered in his name and nothing could stop this movement.
In his name they in turn ministered, and in time the Ekklesia-those who responded to his call and were baptized and filled with the Spirit-moved from Jerusalem into the world in faith, sharing his message and ministering in his name.
While on earth as a man, he called and trained disciples and sent them forth to Meet the needs of many.
His ministry flowed from his compassion and love.
We read how Jesus saw the crowds and had compassion for them.
To use a biblical picture: Many are outside the fold wandering around like sheep without a shepherd, not unlike the situation Jesus encountered in Israel when he walked the dusty roads and ministered, bringing healing and restoration.
Among the believers not attending church, there are many who are not only committed, but well trained and able to lead.
Some have moved away because they were used and abused by the very institutions and leaders they had trusted.
Contrary to the expectations that those who move away and do not attend church are backsliders, many are not! In fact, a vast number moved out of the Church because they are serious about having a vibrant and living faith.
Millions of People have been moving away from the institutional Church and the trend is accelerating.
