Every house church is different, and is 'crafted' by the people who belong to it. But this is what we do in our house church meetings: We sing some worship songs (with a few guitars), then we listen to a 'deep, meaningful' song (often by a Christian band, but not always) and discuss what it means and what it tells us about God/us/life/the world etc. Then we usually read a bible passage (or few, with a common theme) and discuss it...
It's a lot like a bible study/home group that many churches run!
The difference? We're not linked to 'another' church, we don't have additional programmes that members are supposed to attend/assist with, we are low (no) cost, and we are very outward focused because of all this.
Aim: To encourage and connect with people interested/involved in the House Church/Emerging Church. I am Amelia, I live in New Zealand, and I've belonged to a house church for two years (I grew up in a 'structured' church). I'm studying Law and Psychology.
