Kids in Your House Church

Micheal Harris talks about intergenerational fellowship

Dan interviews Micheal Harris who has been engaged in children’s ministry for 50 years. His experience includes large traditional churches and simple churches of just a few families. In this interview, Micheal talks about his philosophy of ministry with children and some of his experiences with the youngest members of our community.


Mentioned in the podcast is Micheal’s book called, “Parables – A creative guide for all ages to learn God’s word together.” Here is the link to a post we uploaded several years ago that includes a sample of some of the fun activities designed for small group fellowships.

Watch for a future podcast that describes the book in more detail.

Called out…the ecclesia

Thoughts on new community

The following are excerpts from a longer piece posted on my personal web portal.

As followers of Jesus we are now being called to a separate peace and a new community. No more business as usual…

As reactionary as it may sound, I believe we have come to the time of ecclesia, that is the calling out of an assembly. The old American church has been too dependent on the culture in which it was formed. That culture, in ways both subtle and obvious, is turning against it.
