About Bob Sears
Bob lives in Fullerton and is very happily married to Caroline. He has two grown children: Ryan and Shannon.

Bob received my Master of Divinity degree from Talbot Seminary at Biola Univ. in 1982(No fair holding that against him.)

Bob then served for 20 years as an associate pastor in two Evangelical Free churches.

Unable to resist the Spirit's prodding, Bob left his pastoral position at the begin-ning of 2003 to start simple churches. He especially loves "fishing" in the 12-step recovery community because so many recognize their need for God but are turned-off to "organized religion."

Bob's desire is to serve the body of Christ by helping simple churches become all that God intends.

ABOUT THE OC/ORGANIC CHURCH FORUM
"We are an unincorporated association of different organic, simple and house church families throughout the Orange County area who are working together to encourage one another, share ideas and resources and help others who feel called to this way of "being Church".

Paul and Lori Byerly have been involved in various forms of church leadership for most of their adult live. In 1999 their frustration at the lack of fellowship and community in their church lead them into house church. In 2000 Paul and Lori began to volunteer for House2House, a resource for house church groups. In 2005 the Byerlys become paid staff for House2House. In early 2010 Paul and Lori became part of a local “hybrid” church which focuses on both a Sunday service and weekly home based Life Groups. In April Paul and Lori became the coaches for the Life Groups. They remain active in a regional house church network.

Paul and Lori have ministered to married couples, primarily on-line, for 14 years. Their on-line resources include The Marriage Bed web site, daily blogs The Generous Wife and The Generous Husband, and a Twitter feed.

The Byerlys live in a small town north of Spokane with their son. They spend their free time gardening and remodelling they home the bought last year. Their daughter who lives in Texas gave them their first grandchild in March.

ABOUT WENDY AND KEITH GILES
Wendy and Keith entered the house church world about five years ago when they felt God calling them to plant a church in Orange County. At first, they thought they would be planting a traditional church but soon they heard God's call to give 100% of the offerings to the poor in the community. The only way to make that vision a reality was to take a tent-making job and meet in their home.

Keith is the author of "The Gospel:For Here or To Go?", "Nobody Follows Jesus (So Why Should You?)", and "Subversive Interviews", a collection of his conversations with Dallas Willard, Todd Hunter, Matt Redman, Jim Wallis, Walter Kirn, Neil Cole, Frank Viola and others. All are available at his website: www.KeithGiles.com

Before entering college, Wendy spent several years devoting her life to drama and missions. She toured Europe and the US as part of a travelling drama evangelism team called "Covenant Players".

They are the proud parents of two teenage boys, Dylan and David, and together they help to serve the poor in Orange County and are currently planting a motel church in partnership with Saddleback.

Come and hear more about their journey into service to the poor in Orange County and how they are learning to be missionaries in their community and on their cul-de-sac.

Wendy and Keith are members of The Mission House Church in Orange, CA.
