Biblical Community Reimagined

Church House Heads Bowed in Prayer

“But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”

—Acts 1:8

What Is an Abundant Life
Church House?

A Church House is a church for everyone, everywhere. It’s gathering with others wherever you live, in person, to watch Abundant Life’s weekly services, worship God through music, and have engaging conversations through physical relationships to see lives changed by Jesus. Church Houses reimagine biblical community so that we’re not limited by buildings or parking lots as we pursue being living proof of a loving God to a watching world.

Why Church Houses?


The Church can’t build buildings as fast as we need to reach people and go anywhere at any time for Jesus. If we only focus on a building, we miss opportunities and limit the spread of the gospel. 

Other opportunities are missed too. People can come into a church building and never get connected or grow. Our heart is to see people everywhere develop an intimate relationship with God and, as a result, have real and authentic relationships with others, pointing more people to Jesus. 

Church Houses are a way to grow in your relationship with God and others, so you are equipped to share the good news of Jesus with a watching world in hopes that lives are changed. 

According to Acts 1:8, Jesus calls us to reach our local communities and the world. We are leveraging technology to do just that. 

Church Houses make church available for anyone, anywhere, emphasizing the importance and power of physical connection.

How Are Abundant Life Church Houses Different from Abundant Life Groups?

GROUPS are a great format for meeting together with others in the Abundant Life community, and they are an easy on-ramp for making connections. We would encourage anyone with a heart for people to consider leading a GROUP! 

Comparatively, Church Houses are more than gathering as a group—they are gathering to do church! Church Houses gather for church, watching an Abundant Life message and spending time in worship and discussion.

How Is an Abundant Life Church House Different from House Churches?

An Abundant Life Church House is guided by the leadership of Abundant Life.

Services icon

SERVICE

All content shared in a Church House service is prepared by Abundant Life and reflects Abundant Life’s beliefs and theology.

Leadership

LEADERS

Church House leaders undergo an approved training process overseen by Abundant Life pastors.

Location Icon

LOCATIONS

Church House locations are part of the global Abundant Life community—meaning we stay connected with Church House Leaders with the goal that every location reflects our intent for Church Houses.

Comparatively, a house church would be under its own leadership, with its own content, and with a connection to any church base, or it could potentially be freestanding with no formal church oversight.
