In Acts, the church met in homes and in synagogues. They had everything in common and spent time together every day. Over time, things became complicated. The church gained power, developed a deep hierarchy, and became institutionalized to the point of manipulation and abuse. Today there are over 30,000 denominations and all sorts of problems, causing deep decline within Western Christianity. All of this has created a desire to move forward in the church by going backwards. What if an organizational church doesn't have to be the way it is? What if, rather than power and money and influence, the church went back to it's ecclesiological roots?In this book, "Back to Acts", Martin Holman presents some simple and clear insights to help those gifted in the areas of pastoring and church leadership take steps to go back to Acts and start a home church. If the home church is something that interests you, Back to Acts: How to start a home church is a must read.
