a weekly consistency would be great but i feel like if it were available ALL day because it would allow more people to be a part of it. in addition to that, the weekends are a hit or miss. as a college student i feel like we are out of town more often than not on weekends.

I like a saturday, but would like to know that it would be consistent, like the second saturday of every month.

I have invited many people to experience the time of worship with me, several of which have been long time christians, and all have left with a new understanding of what worship can be. There is freedom to be found in the peace. It has always been a way for me to bring myself back to the center, and really search/wait/listen for answers, or comfort, or what ever it is that I am missing in my life.

Also, I’d like to see it happen in one certain place. Not because I’m some respecter of places, but because I like the idea of one certain place with a sense of permanence where this stuff goes on. Like if we got a super cheap house somewhere, or even a cheap apartment.

Heck yes. I second both of these responses. Couldn’t have put it any better myself, so I’m not sure why I’m about to try.

Here’s what I see: I see a group of people like the early church of Acts. All like-minded, all reflecting Jesus. I see something like a church that no one could ever speak against…who can speak against love? Who can speak against selflessness and acceptance? Maybe they could say we were weird. Fanatics, maybe. They could say we followed a different rule, one that transcended human justice; the rule of grace. What I see is a church like the church was meant to be, where segregations and denominations and all that falls away and we focus on God and let him work through us into our community.

how about just saturday to start out with? it seems like a day when the least amount of things can get in the way of actually showing up. eventually maybe a weekday as well, but starting off simple would be good. plus, saturday a day before we come together in a bigger setting to serve one another, so we’re filled and ready to pour out what the Lord has shown us on saturday.

In my mind a prayer/worship house looks like a big pile of tangled up issues on fire. garbage like the rules and regulations that separate us from one another in the church, the bitterness between brothers, the agendas we so often cling to for comfort fearing that Gods agendas cant be found. in this fire there are also our hopes our dreams, our fears and our love. the fire is on an altar and together, like Abraham, we put all we hold dear on the altar trusting in the Lord to be sovereign and just enough to know how to take it and what to do with it.

Where two or more are gathered together, the Lord is there. and i dont think thats to say that he’s not there before two or more gather.I think what it means is that when two or more people come together for the purpose and with the heart to worship Him, He is so much more visible and it makes us think “wow, God is really here with us!” so this is the case for Jeremiah Project. I remember being one of the only 2 or 3 people left at JP meetings and we we’re so at rest in knowing the Father was there. in turn it would provoke a conversation, a song, a painting, a dream (its hard not to sleep at 4 in the morning) about this God that our culture unknowingly hangs upon but often leaves out of conversations, songs, paintings and dreams. No eye has seen nor ear has heard, no mind can fully know what God has in store for those who love him and willingly seek Him.

a whole collage of Jesus. crazy stuff going on…dancing, singing, screaming…laughing, but also peace and times of just sitting still….listening, praying, resting.

Jeremiah project rules!!!…is that what you had in mind, Dustin??? Kidding. I will say I have missed the worship. It is hard to find times where everyone can worship the Lord however they desire, be it painting, drawing, dancing, making up lyrics, singing hymns, humming, reading the bible, journaling…well the idea is pretty clear. It is a beautiful sight.
