What does it mean to start a new church? For us, it does not mean that we buy a building or hold a worship service. It means that we begin to shape a community of people who think Jesus was on to something. Sure, we might have a gathering that resembles a worship service someday, and maybe even a building. But as a community of people who find that life comes through the Way of Jesus, we are a church already.
The Austin Mustard Seed is an organic church community. We think of the church as a living system. Like the study of living systems, we place an emphasis on the structure of smaller networks within larger networks. The Austin Mustard Seed is made up of relational networks shaped around our culture and our patterns of life so that the Kingdom may thrive. We desire to make God’s Kingdom known through our relationships and practices as we live individually and corporately in the Way of Jesus.
