Paul makes his way to the city of Ephesus, spending three years ministering to Jews and Gentiles throughout Asia through house church movements. These movements were relational by nature, and have become the New Testament model for how God would spread His word throughout large areas. This movement stands in contrast to the religious model of worship, where a holy place and a holy person are needed to worship a deity. The local church being outward focused through house church movements was used powerfully by God to spread His message of forgiveness through Jesus Christ. This teaching includes multiple testimonies of people sharing their experience with high-quality fellowship.
