The Open Church: How to Restore Vitality to Church Gatherings
with Dr. M. Lynn Reddick & Linda Reddick
What did you bring to the meeting?
• How has your walk with God been this past week?
• Does anyone have a praise report to give?
• Who has a scripture to share?
• Has the Lord taught you anything this week?
As the Holy Spirit directs open meetings - perhaps through a pastor or elder - worship, sharing, and ministry moves in a Divine flow. In this flow people are free and encouraged to participate!
Open Church with the Holy Spirit
“Early church meetings - whether in small home group settings or large celebration - were open and interactive. These early meetings were patterned after the synagogue as a house of study and open discussion. Questions, stories that painted word pictures and daily events were the pattern Jesus used effectively.
“What then, brethren, is the right course? When you meet together, each one has a hymn, a teaching, a disclosure of special knowledge or information, an utterance in a strange tongue or an interpretation of it. But let everything be constructive and edifying and for the good of all” (1 Corinthians 14:26, the amplified Bible.)
The Reddick’s have been presenting Blessing and Open Church seminars for the past nine years around the globe.
