Searching…
Lately I’ve been stirred by the implications of where the church is going in the earth. You can read a little more of my cryptic statements about that subject here and here. However, it has lead me to do some pretty serious searching for others out there who are like us. The last three days I’ve spent on the internet searching for others who are doing what we’re doing in Iowa. I don’t want to recruit. I don’t want to be recruited. I just want to find other friends who are believing the same things I am.
So my internet search engines are filled with queries containing the following phrases:
House church
Home church
Simple church
House church network
Cedar Rapids
Iowa City
Waterloo
Cedar Falls
Iowa
To my chagrin and frustration, they’re not out there. I know many are considering these things and that I’m not the only one the Lord is speaking to on these matters…so I post my searches, not so much to update everyone I know about what I’m doing but in hopes that there’s some other frustrated guy out there just like me, looking for other guys doing the same thing he’s doing. I want to be clear. This is not an invitation for any frustrated believer to come join a new house church. We’ve got enough stuff to figure out on our own.
But, if you’re out there in Eastern Iowa doing the same thing we’re doing…let me know.

Hi Travis,
saw your post on wordpress tonight….here’s a link to my blog :http://hearttoheart.wordpress.com/
If you scroll down about half way on the home page, you will see I wrote something about our home church involvement..we are located in Eastern Iowa…have been involved on and off w/ our homechurch since 1999 w/ a couple of short breaks in between….drop me a note and I can share w/ you more specfics. I especially would echo what you said above…. “I’m NOT interesed in being recruited nor recruiting”… DM
