Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you'll recover your life. I'll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me -- watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won't lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you'll learn to live freely and lightly. Matthew 11:28-30 The Message
There are a number of groups both online and offline trying to discover what it is to walk alongside, work with and learn from the Master. Oikos Ministries has a page on facebook for those interested in connecting with us ( http://www.facebook.com/oikosministries )
Our family is located in Calgary, AB but seems to have gained an extended family that extends world wide. Always interested in learning from others on this journey with Jesus. We are also active online through our website http://oikosministries.com/ and twitter http://twitter.com/oikosministries. I look forward to connecting with each of you. Blessings, Rob

Hi Rob,
I see you are from Calgary. That is my home town.
My husband Dave and I are very new to this concept but wow what a wonderful journey we are on.
Were you or anyone you know at the the weekend that Jon Zens spoke at recently in Calgary. I have come to appreciate Jon very much. His writing for sure and the bit of contact via email.
Good to see there are some Western Canadians on board. \

I don't know of any books off the top of my head, but I know they're out there.
One place to start is the following link:

I'll find some more resources to share with you as time allows.

Very interesting. If you know of some book or material that dives a little deeper into the subject, I would appreciate it. Send my a message if you know of anything.
Darrell Meeks replied to Darrell Meeks's discussion 'Back in music again.'
I just uploaded a song called "Be Still My Soul" on my page that I re-mastered, re-instrumented, added effects, and made a simple midi file sound fantastic.
Enjoy
Darrell Meeks replied to Darrell Meeks's discussion 'Tithe-Whipped'
Michael,
I certainly understand what you're saying. Very few ministers ever speak the TRUTH about the tithe.
In OT times, the tithe was the inheritance of the Levites who were not allowed to make a living by any means as was common among the…

Jossimar, bienvenido al blog de MHI, espero que aqui encuentres informacion relevante sobre como desarrollar discipulos, lideres e iglesias utilizando una proceso estrategico simple/organico. Bendiciones!
Michael Hartson replied to Darrell Meeks's discussion 'Tithe-Whipped'
I have seen a lot of sermons on the tithing, or giving; some of them very strange. I remember some time a go when my adult daughter was a teen, and going through a very difficult time, was being hauled off in a police car. We called the pastor…
Michael Hartson replied to Joshua Westcott's discussion 'Challenges of the Small Town'
yes, Quite true. "Doing Church" in house with out the Organic content, is just switching buildings. We as people tend to compartmentalize areas of our life. Church in this part, school in this part, marriage in this part,…
Jossimar Diaz-Castro liked Marvin Lorenzana's blog post '¿Como hace discipulos tu iglesia?'
Darrell Meeks replied to Darrell Meeks's discussion 'Tithe-Whipped'
Amen to that.
It's also of interes that those who had, for example, only nine lambs or calves born in a year, they were not required to hand over anything.
One thing I will say is that I thoroughly appreciate the OT system of…
Catherine Seebald replied to Joshua Westcott's discussion 'Challenges of the Small Town'
You're so right, Darrell! Many of the house churches I'm familiar with are not organic expressions of church but are really just institutional church in miniature. As Frank Viola says, organic church (OC) is one of the most…
Michael Hartson commented on Jim London's blog post 'What do we do when there is no group to join?'
When I think about the most significant points in my Christian walk, they did not take place in an organized, institutionalized environment. It was incidental to my world, but wholly intentional by God.
Michael Hartson replied to Michael Hartson's discussion 'Why Can't Christian's Hang Out?'
Sure, it's intentional. God is responsible for the Results, we are responsible for the action. God asks us to share our lives, talk to others about him, love others. Who gets saved, or what a person does or does not do or what…
Jim London replied to Michael Hartson's discussion 'Why Can't Christian's Hang Out?'
Michael, you are sharing and asking about something that is very crucial. Often the pattern is "We don't want to be that programmed meeting all designed and led by the fellow hired to make it all run smoothly. We want to be more…
