"Common People attain Uncommon Results"

"Teamwork is the fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon results."
TEAMWORK is the fresh and powerful way the Lord seems to want to accomplish things on the earth in these last days.
As we traveled around the USA for 13 weeks in 2009, trying to gain insight by being on-sight, we have seen something that is under the radar, if you will.
The Church is alive and well and growing in America.
Now we don’t hear that from the media, do we?
We believe the God has reviled a truth to us and confirmed it by others, as we have travel around this nation.
The lie the media paints is that the Church is dead or dying in the US. (How do our kids say this?) NOT
Here is what we mean. Their measuring stick is the problem. They are talking about the traditional church…and it is true, most of them are dying. (There are exceptions)
But here is the truth, they don’t measure the non-traditional churches, like the Pentecostals,(Assemblies, 4 Square etc) the Non-Denominational and the Community Churches that are having such growth they can’t keep up with it. We saw this all over our country.
We know of a 4 Square in Anaheim Ca that started about 6 years ago with a few families, today they have over 6,000 people. Another in Lake Charles LA that has over 3,500, and started 3 years ago, with 300. Another in Kansas City Kansas meeting in a very large warehouse they moved into in the last year or so, and now they have to expand to handle the growth. Their growth is coming mainly from new converts, and a few looking for an alive place to fellowship.
Here is something else that is under the radar, and George Barnas group has picked up on this.
The traditional churches are about 33% of the Christians in America; the other 66% are in the non-traditional, IE: Marketplace and the House Church movement and almost 33%. The rest are in non-traditional settings.
A side note here; George Barna says that the House Churches are 80 to 85 % Spirit Filled. WOW!!!!!! we think the Lord is up to something.
We believe that God is preparing His Church for the end time’s dispersion and that church, in maybe 20 years, is not going to look like it does today.
In a fashion, we have been prepared in 2=1, without even recognizing it.
Just give us this liberty as we explain…
2=1 has had the model of home groups for 27 years, and now we see a move to the house church that most of us have never heard of, or if we have we might have judged it because, it doesn’t look like the model we are use too.
Every one of these examples above, started with a team of common people, and now God is helping them attain un-common results. In every case here, it’s not about the leader that is leading them, it’s about the team they have surrounding them, and they give the team credit, which includes God. The fuel here is, TEAMWORK.
We believe that the season that is upon us, in this ministry of 2=1, has an unbelievable future, if we will team up with each other and the Lord, cover each others backs, lift each other up, support each other, no matter where we are on the planet, get connected via the web, and prepare for the soon coming King…this could be our finest hour.
You see this is all about relationships, this is how God has chosen to accomplish what He wants to accomplish here on earth.
So stay close to your team, support and encourage one another, and work as a team to get a corporate idea of how He wants you to accomplish things for Him.
