In an act that Harrsion described as «spiritual genocide», the group claimed that
early church leaders took hold of temple grounds and
turned them into
churches during the Christiansation of England starting as
early as the 7th century.
This is the reason why,
earlier this year, Eric and I helped start the Groups Matter campaign: to encourage
churches to embrace the essential components of healthy groups and, in
turn, equip them to develop their
leaders, launch new groups, and feed their people with solid Bible study experiences.
