God's plan is not for independence, or co-dependence; it is for inter-dependence. In the words of Peter, we are "living stones" [1 Pet. 2:5] being built up into a spiritual house.
Ironically one of the main reasons that we closed down our Sunday meetings was because we were becoming highly skilled at holding Sunday meetings but people weren't really meeting (each other) on Sundays. I had always maintained that the Sunday meetings were intended as a portal, not a panacea. In other words, they should be seen as the 'point of entry', not the 'point of entering'. So now our point of entry is Friday.
The Grace Project meetings seek to provide a frame-work upon which healthy Christian relationships can grow. Our preference is for the cultivation of 'off-line' relationships, rather potentially contrived forums such as cell groups or meetings. Friendship is spiritual, and people should meet because they want to.
We meet because we love to be together, and believe that the Father's heart is to recover the potentially most vivid expression of His nature.
There are some who have argued [with some persuasiveness] that if one is to grow in Christ, it is necessary to leave the church. Adam Jameson's book "The Churchless Faith" is a very provocative and challenging piece of research, and his findings compelling... but our view is that a "churchless faith" is a regrettable and altogether understandable response to the core problem: a faithless church.
Therein lies the key to all things - rediscovering the Christian faith, which is not faith in our faith in Christ but the faith of Christ in the Christian.
