Organic church growth and house churches are two sides of the same coin! Kingdom lifestyle and a basic Christian community can’t be separated! The Covenant Community is the community of the King of the Universe whose throne is founded on covenant love, mercy and righteousness! The basic Christian community starts in the family. It is not a meeting, but a shared life! It is not an organization, but a relationship! It is not centred on a building, but on a person: Jesus Christ. Only by knowing him through the revelation of the Spirit, we may enter into a personal relationship with him and with those who know him.

Today my friend Oddmund Ro came over to help me with some practical work outside my house. When the work was finished we had a nice lunch, prepared by Solveig, together. At the meal and after having enjoyed the meal, we were sharing hearts with one another. What a wonderful time! As we were only three of us together, we experienced basic Christian community. We were blessed and strengthen by sharing and having fellowship together. Outside the cold wind was blowing, but inside the gentle breeze of the Spirit was warming our hearts!
