    Church Without Walls (CWoW)

    24th March 2007

    NOTE: As I was writing this post, I surfed around a bit and found that, oh! joy! Messy Christian is back! And, she just post about Church too! Now, this is what you call colla-blog-aration at its best!

    lopezskidrow.jpgOf late, my church pastors have been talking a lot about this concept of Church Without Walls“>Church Without Walls or the Underground Church. He was referring to the practice of taking our faith beyond the four walls of the Church building and outside the structures of the traditional idea of “doing church.”

    Too many times, when we think of being a Christian, or being part of a Church, we think in terms of the organization or a group that has a particular structure or organizational framework.

    Yet, when we think of the disciples of Jesus in the first century, they really got it when they went to out to engage people in the synagogues, the temple and in other public meeting places, even to other sacred or religious sites. They went back to each other homes for fellowship, prayer and more study and learning.

    So, what does this mean to us modern day Christians then? What does Church Without Walls mean to you and me?

    Last night I witnessed a Church Without Walls. I went down to L.A. Skid Row where a group of Christians meet every Friday night and read and preach from God’s Word at the Corner of Wall and Winston right in the heart of Skid Row. Read the rest of this entry »
