I went to one of the Home churches....A Pastor left his church for belief it was becoming too worldly...too much friction with the other two Pastors on that matter.
I have to say his ‘ego’ was huge while I listened to him conduct a simple Bible Study.....and there were those who left with him who you could tell wanted someone to follow.
It was truly uncomfortable being there. I never went back.
Small churches and home churches have issues as well...but generally don’t make the press.
Anywhere you find people, you will find flawed people - "for all have sinned and fall short of the Glory of God"
That's why it's critical to know your Bible, and extend a ton of grace....we all need it!
All groups have problems or issues.
