i would be one of the few that would disagree with the "business/church" model. church is not and never was designed to be ran like a business and because we have allowed our corporate culture to influence our faith communities we feel we have to keep the "machine" going. Its time to get God's people off of the respirators and revive them back to true relationship with God. As a network of house churches, none of these issues apply to us. We are so small we CAN be effective, change is easy and our size allows us to move quickly and be ultra responsive.
