Negative Positive
Title: Some good points. Poor delivery.
Review: The author makes some decent points, but you have to sift through a lot of words, bad examples, and shotgun style writing (shoot at everything without really developing his own idea). I think some of his criticisms are needed, but his back-to-the-roots house church is really just another form - complete with music, sharing, teaching... I am not saying this is bad - God uses our own culture/interests/structures/styles to reach us. I am also not against the house church movement and think it is cool that God is moving among his people in this way - but I also do not think everyone should abandon the more traditional movements. I happen to find a lot of life in a larger church gathering - through teaching of the word, dynamic small groups, the larger pool of resources to partner with my community...
