Simple churches:

• Owns no property
• Has no employees
• Has no collections
• Worship centered, not stage centered
• Leader and teachers but everyone gets to participate
• Everyone one know everyone
• Its not a little church with ambitions of becoming big
• No agenda but to love one another

It can be just be your family and extreme cases, yourself

Parachurches can not replace simple churches but it can facilitate communication and fellowship among them

Parachurches can be the first point of contact but need the simple church setting on a regular basis

Traditional churches serve as a bridge simple churches to the universal church

Key Phrase: Parachurches can not replace simple churches but it can facilitate communication and fellowship among them
