In my 20's we would have people gather together in their homes and small groups, honestly, we experienced a lot more in that time than attending church, yes it's sad to admit, but it was true. People got to share instead of sitting still in a seat and listening to what one man/woman had to say, nothing wrong with that, but when you have an intimate setting and share God in that way, a lot more things happen, you feel a part of the body and not just a number and a $ sign. Might start back doing that here soon. Hope you got what you were looking for while you were away, God bless
