Simple Churches in Chicago

   
How are we going to reach inside the city of Chicago? The answer is ... 'simple' .    

A Simple Church.

You might think: “Whatever! Church isn’t simple—it’s full of a bunch of things I am not the least bit interested in. I’m spiritual, but not a church person.” (???????) What if church was different? A church meeting in people’s homes, a church not anything like your parent’s church or the church you hated growing up, a church that isn’t what you think of when you think of church. A church filled with people at all points along the spiritual journey of faith—from unbeliever to Jesus Freaks. (Yeah, these are Christian Churches, we do believe in Jesus, but Jesus was not a jerk and neither are we.)

A Simple Church is a church that is able, by it's very simplicity, to cut through the clutter and complications of life in the city with its’ purity of mission and tenderness of heart.

What do they look like? We don’t know yet. Each one will develop along it's own unique trajectory, suited to the lives of the people who make up the community. Don’t like getting up on Sunday mornings? People can connect with a Simple Church that meets on Tuesday nights. What if they don’t like church buildings? Then they can connect with a Simple Church that meets in their neighbor’s 2 flat. It works like that.
