An On-Line Community of House Churches, Simple Churches & Assorted Sojourners

Start Here
Welcome to The Parousia Network Cyber Cafe! The Parousia Network is a loose network of house churches, simple churches and other like-minded believers and sojourners in Jesus. This "Cyber Cafe" is our on-line community where we post our thoughts on what God is doing in our lives, in our network, in the greater house church or simple church movement and in our world at large. Like any good community (see Communitas) our goal is to build healthy relationships by sharing and interacting with one another.

Our hope is that you will become actively involved in this attempt at "community building". There are a wide variety of ways you can do this.

  • Share some of your thoughts with us on our blog.
  • List your house church under "Communitas" and give us a link to it that we can post for others to see what you are doing.
  • Download and listen to one of our "GodCasts,"
  • Read a newsletter and interact with us about it.
  • Check out the House Church Equipping resources and suggest others that we may not be aware of.
  • Join us in a discussion about spiritual awakening and what that might look like.
  • Suggest good movies, books or reviews for consideration by us and others.

Many of the articles available on this site are in Adobe PDF format. So, if you don't have Adobe Reader, you might want to start by clicking on the Adobe icon to get their free download. You will need it later - trust me!

Someone inevitably asks, "What's your philosophy of 'house church' or 'simple church'?" If that's the "starting point" that interests you, then let me suggest that you start by reading Module 1 from our house church equipping workbook. It's entitled "Zen And The Art of Riding Dead Horses" (now you're goin' to need that PDF thing I was talking about earlier!).
