Not Returning to Church After COVID-19?

Pastor Steve Durkac Posted on July 29, 2020 by Steve DurkacJuly 30, 2020avatar

I have had at least three conversations in the past two weeks with individuals who have told me that when their church goes back to regular in-person worship services, they will not. All three of these people were from different congregations representing Southern Baptist, Pentecostal, and Nondenominational but all three cited a similar reason as to why they are not planning on returning their church. All three agreed that they are happy watching their pastor’s sermon online and that they … Continue reading →

Starting A House Church

Pastor Steve Durkac Posted on February 8, 2018 by Steve DurkacFebruary 8, 2018avatar

A house church is not a one-size-fits-all or a cookie-cutter singular approach, but rather a zero-budget mission that is developed organically according to God’s leading and your calling. First, start with a call upon your heart. God uses pastors in His ministry and house churches that are led by pastoral care leaders are certainly following the biblical example that best feeds God’s flock. Second, I suggest starting by forming the foundations of beliefs, mission, and values of what your house … Continue reading →
