    How To Build A Thriving House Church Network with Art Thomas

    When we talk about church gatherings, we often fall into one of two extremes: 1. Super libertarian 2. Super controlled Both ends of the spectrum have value in the right context, but what happens when we go outside the box and stop turning one dial to 100% and the other to 0%? That's what Art Thomas us understand today, as he shares how his organization has built a local house church network...and why they took the unusual step of officially organizing it instead of leaving it cranked to 100% "freedom". Jeremy and Art discuss thinking outside the box, how to decide if you should officially organize, how to disciple people within a house church setting, and how to build engaged groups (since most people are used to passive worship services). In this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 2:37 From unconventional church plants to thriving house church network 15:11 How freedom to think outside the box encourages disciple-making 25:32 Should your house church group officially organize? 32:28 House church network governing structure 38:14 Defining discipleship 47:23 How to activate people's gifts after (potentially) decades of passivity in worship services Mentioned: Art's Website: https://www.artthomas.org/ Roots Church Website: https://www.rootsag.org/ Gospel Houses: How Everyday Christians can Make Disciples At Home by Art Thomas:  https://www.amazon.com/dp/1959547011/ The Heavenly Man: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0825446775/ Letters To The Church by Francis Chan: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0830776583/ Revolution by George Barna: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0096VZ85G/ Family on Mission by Mike Breen: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0999898108/ --- 🏠 LEARN HOW TO MAKE DISCIPLES FOR JESUS, IN AND THROUGH YOUR HOME: 1kh.org --- Hi, welcome to the 1000 Houses Podcast!

    How Christians Gathered in the 1st Century, and Why We Should Care with Dr. Tom Wadsworth

    The episode features a conversation with Dr. Tom Wadsworth on the historical understanding of early Christian gatherings and worship practices. The discussion explores how the Lord's Supper evolved from the representation of Jesus' sacrifice to being viewed as a sacrifice offered by Christians to God, reflecting broader cultural influences from Judaism and paganism. The podcast delves into the structure of early assemblies, the significance of household gatherings, and the development of church liturgy and leadership over the centuries. It also tackles contentious issues such as the descriptive versus prescriptive debate in interpreting New Testament practices and the challenges of transitioning from structured worship services to more informal, participatory gatherings in homes.
