Leadership Lesson Podcast: Season 3 Episode 9 - Micro Church

Pastor Daniel talks with Peyton Jones, an experienced pastor and church planter in the U.S. and Europe over the past two decades. He is currently in the process of planting a network of churches in the North County San Diego area. Today’s topic is the micro church—what is it and what is all the talk about? This concept has been popularized recently by Francis Chan in his book Letters to the Church. Peyton describes a micro church as more of an outreach gathering. You go to the lost; you don’t wait for them to come to you. This concept is based on minimal ecclesiology, which is not having to have all of the trappings of a large church in order to do ministry. This is pictured in Acts 2:42. Everyday believers are released to use their gifts and calling to reach the lost wherever they are. Peyton has written several books: Church Zero; Reaching the Unreached: Becoming Raiders of the Lost Art; and The Ninja Church Planter. Find him online at peytonjones.ninja

QUOTES:

“Everybody is still just trying to reach lost people.”

“When you read the book of Acts, very little of it happens inside a building. The key is getting out there.”

“Micro church is almost like a missional outpost. It’s not a gathering in your home for a backyard barbecue. It’s going to them, to the lost, where they’re at.”

“Micro is a way of saying you’d focused on the people in front of you at all times.”

“We’re empowering everyday believers in their gifts.”

“We need to always ask, not is it a new thing, but is it a New Testament thing? And if it is, let’s get back to it.”

3 MINUTE MESSAGE:

THE FEAR OF THE LORD by Jim Gallagher | Proverbs 8:13

"The fear of the Lord is hatred of evil. Pride and arrogance and the way of evil and perverted speech I hate." Proverbs 8:13
