The contemporary church wants people to know Bible info.
God wants people to grow by releasing His inner flow.
Spiritual maturity will grow only from God’s inner flow. It’s not produced by the Bible lessons you know.
People aren’t changed by what they know, but by God’s inner flow.
About Steve Simms
I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
