I recently stayed with a missionary family in Central Asia. Churches are available locally and people are free to attend.
However this particular couple chose not to attend church. Their 'church' is their family. Their witness is to enquirers who they come into contact with when their home is 'serviced' or enquiries sent by those local churches.
Is this biblical? What is to stop me doing the same? Extending the Kingdom through growing my family? Is it good for the children that they don't go to local schools but are entirely home schooled? That they don't have local friends?
