The practice of "church" is witnessing a radical paradigm shift from mass gatherings, aka megachurches, to discipleship-making organs. In this book, The House Church in God's Eternal Purposes, Theodore Andoseh, describes in a practical way what a house church is and all that goes into her form and expression. House churches are the inns, the inns of God. They are the tabernacles of God. The house church is a place to welcome people from the street; wounded people; people who have received only the first aid ministry. House churches are there to care for, heal, nourish, keep and watch over the people so that What was brought from the street does not go back there, What was taken from the hand of the thief does not fall back into their hands. If you are a house church leader or a leader of any organic community of believers at whatever stage and size, then this book provides valuable material to help disciple them in an organic house setting. It is both realigning and enlightening, with a strong voice of Scripture. It is a must-read!

People the world over, though diverse, have the same yearning: to live in peace and come together as one. Jesus Christ had one mission: to unite disparate people to become ONE. The night before His death, He offered a monumental prayer (John 17). In this prayer He made His heart's desire clear: wants all people, irrespective of differences in background, ethnicity, politics, and/or socio-economic status, to be ONE. Just as Jesus and the Father are perfectly ONE, Jesus desires His people to be included in this complete oneness. He made the ultimate sacrifice in order to achieve His consummate goal: He died on the cross for all people, and, in triumphant resurrection and ascension, He gave three gifts so that ". . . they [we] may be ONE."The three profound gifts are: eternal life, truth, and His glory. No, He did not leave His people with a religion, because religion results in division-but, instead, He lovingly bequeathed His followers with free gifts. When these gifts are received and enjoyed, dissimilar people miraculously become ONE. These three gifts bring joy, love, peace, kindness, fulfillment, and purpose for all people. God's eternal purpose is for humankind to enjoy such a wonderful and mysterious ONEness together, in Him, as the uniting bond of peace.This book expounds on becoming and functioning as ONE through these three gifts. It was written so that both Christians and non-Christians alike can easily understand it. It will take you on a journey through the Bible, into God's eternal purpose, and into your own home (from house to house). Jesus prayed that when His people are ONE, then ". . . the world may believe. . ." in Jesus Christ. Today's dream: Reset to ONE; Revival Next!

God saved you according to a purpose, which was in His heart before He created the world. He has a purpose from eternity to eternity. It spans the whole of time. When he saved us, it was according to that purpose.

"What a refreshing book! Imagine a church whose primary emphasis is to make people "feel at home." I wish every young pastor could read this book. Thanks, Lee, for a wonderful reminder of what the church is to be." -Erwin W. Lutzer, Pastor Emeritus, The Moody Church, Chicago Is your church acting like an organization or a home? You love your church, but you wonder if it could be more. There’s a greeting team, but is there a true spirit of welcoming? There are committees, leaders, and programs, but is there a Spirit-led vision? There are small groups, but are people truly connected? Pastor and award-winning author Lee Eclov was troubled by these questions. Then, he had a realization: he wasn’t called to lead an organization, but a family. His job was to be a "homemaker," not a CEO. This paradigm shift changed everything. In Feels Like Home, he shares what he’s learned from over 40 years of ministry about being the family of God and how to live into that beautiful reality. This short volume is full of stories of small adjustments that make a huge difference in the effectiveness, warmth, and growth of a church community. Discover how the love of a family can transform your church.
