Good thoughts on your blog. You show the spread between liberal Christian and more fundamentalist points of view.

This is ideal for house churches but it also tends to suggest that churches (organized) aren't doing this already. Most churches have funds to help the poor, some have food pantries and others do service projects with the money they get every week. It simply goes into the larger budget that goes for salaries, community functions and building operations.
Of course, if you are someone who doesn't really enjoy that type of church, then Jesse's vision would fit perfectly.
Considering how much money is given by Christians and churches for countries after a mass devastation, I already think this is going on.
Do people need to be more engaged in where their money is going? Sure. Can you make people more engaged? Nope.
By the way....this is simply a snapshot of a larger conversation Jesse and I have already had so don't think I am hatin on my bro who I love greatly. We simply see it a little differently.
