The popularity of home churches, small groups and home fellowships is growing rapidly with millions of adults trying new forms of spiritual community. According to the Barna Group, one in five adults attends a house church at least once a month. In a new book from author Steve Lorch, leaders of these groups receive encouragement, as well as practical and Biblical information about starting and improving home church. Unlike anything you may have read before on the subject, Welcome Home is a uniquely practical and soundly theological guide to nearly every aspect of house churches and small groups.
By placing significant emphasis on developing leaders, Welcome Home maps out step-by-step ways to begin a house church ministry or to greatly improve existing small group programs. Drawing from solid, Biblical examples and over two decades of hands-on experience, Welcome Home sets a clear path for discipleship through home fellowships. The book also includes a CD containing various teaching outlines that may be printed freely for use as class materials.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Steve Lorch works as a short-term consulting/teaching pastor for churches around the US and internationally, helping them with home fellowship ministries and leadership training. Based in Greenville, South Carolina, he and his wife, Jennifer, are the founders of Hydromissions International, a missionary organization that helps to provide clean drinking water for villagers in developing countries.
