Hey friend, it's wonderful that you are here today. Welcome to this new site..

Ours is truly an unprecedented time. A time when every means to spread the Good News about Jesus the Christ can be employed. Yet despite these advantages, thousands of churches close each year.

The battle for the soul of every institution, church, and every person is truly underway. As surely as victory has been promised so participation by all is required. What an opportunity!

The Church is called to a mission - not merely to "be the church." The mission is to serve others in Jesus' name. And to spread the Good News, making disciples of all nations. And much more, of course.

Our purposes at Simple Church Network are several: Our simple pursuit is the great commission and the great commandment. Being the salt of the earth and lights in this dark world. We encourage ideas such as team-led churches and mutual ministry. Things like simplified leadership arrangements, outreach, tent-making, real church meals as the Lords's Supper, and a world-view of victory in the days ahead. Not to mention our hope of becoming a library of useful, free content.

In the spirit of the two ancient spies who returned from the promised land and declared against all odds, we enter the future: This land is God's and it can become ours according to his promise and command. Numbers 13-14. This world still belongs to the Creator and we still desire to bring every person and every thought into joyful captivity to Him.

Finally, please notice that the Simple Church Network exercises no authority or control over any of the individuals or groups listed on this site. All is voluntary as it should be. Everyone is welcome to participate, to question, to inform, and to lift up others.

Also notice that our site is committed to the inerrancy of the inspired Scriptures in their original forms.

Do let us know if your church is without a pastor or unable to afford one. We desire to build a network of locals who can assist your church on transitioning to the biblical model of team leadership. Perhaps there are other ways to simplify as well.

Let us be strengthened by the Almighty and help make his church great again.
