Post 5 (10/14)

One of the interesting things I'm learning here, not only from this class but in others as well, is what household worship looked like and how much of a role it played in early Christianity. I never really took a Church History class in undergrad, so learning things such as what we did on Wednesday like structure of household services is really interesting to me. What is also interesting to learn is how small most of these household churches were--some were really tiny; yet they continued to worship Christ. Often times we get caught up in the numbers game at church--I have myself leading a youth group for the last two years. But it's not about the numbers as much as it is what you do with your group. God can work just fine with a small group of people--something I'm reminded of when we look at these small community churches.
