Bible study in a bar? Church planters draw followers, criticism
One of the first rules for ministers starting a new church: Don't hang out in your office. Go out and meet people.That's an easy one for the Rev. Jeremy Rose to follow.
His startup congregation in Nashville, known as The Axis Church, doesn't have a building or any office space. On Monday night, Rose and five guys from his church sat around a table at J & J's Market & Cafe in Nashville, drinking beer and talking about Jesus.
