House Churches

LRC gathers in small groups called house churches during the week.  Our House Church Ministry has groups meeting on several nights during the week all over the Little Rock metro area including Benton, Bryant, Maumelle, and Alexander.  House churches are designed to create an authentic Christian community that can mature disciples in Christ and equip them for ministry.  House churches are at the core of who LRC is and how we spiritually form believers in God’s grace.  House churches are how the elders of LRC shepherd the church family.  Each LRC elder shepherds 3 or 4 house churches by working closely with the house church leader.

House churches are as old as Christianity.  When you turn to the book of Acts, you find the large group – small group concept being patterned.  Acts 2:42-46 shows that new believers that were added to the church also were a part of a small group meeting in someone’s home.  Acts 5:42 states “Day after day in the temple courts and from house to house, they never stopped teaching and proclaiming the good news of Jesus Christ.”  Other New Testament passages referring to small groups meeting in homes are Acts 12:5-12, Romans 16:3-5, Colossians 4:15, and Phil. 1:1-2.

LRC’s leadership and structure are inseparable.  LRC is designed to grow spiritual leaders out of an intimate community of believers.  Each house church has a shepherding leader(s).  Our house church leaders are the heart of the shepherding care available at LRC.  The elders of LRC look to the house church leaders to be “front line” for shepherding, pastoral care, and maturing members of our church body.  Members of LRC are asked to recognize and respond to the shepherding care of the house church leader and regularly participate in a house church.
