Organic Church

Subtitled "Growing Faith Where Life Happens" by Neil Cole

This is a book that was recommended to Timothy by one of his friends and I was intrigued by it. It details a movement within the church where people are seeking a more organic sense of what their spirituality means to them. This book is specifically about starting churches (and no, Mom, that doesn't mean we want to start a church).

I really enjoyed the point of view that spirituality is less about the rules that are required by man and more about your relationship with God. Neil Cole uses Life Transformation Groups--groups of 2 or 3 people, of the same gender, who meet regularly and hold each other accountable for how they are growing their relationship with God.
