One of the most important insights coming out of our October Experiment is that CO2s (church of two) will be fiercely opposed.

Stephen Bailey expresses this well…

Thanks for sharing Verkler’s 4 Keys. That is helpful teaching for those of us at the beginning of this road.

My wife and I have been struck by how difficult it is to be disciplined enough to do this together everyday, and we live in the same house! However, when we feel powerful resistance to a discipline, that usually means it’s an important discipline. Satan doesn’t waste time combating the unimportant ones. Thanks again for your daily posts.”

John Eldredge confirms these observations in Waking the Dead: “Seriously now – how often have you seen this sort of intimate community work? It is rare. Because it is hard, and it is fiercely opposed. The Enemy hates this sort of thing; he knows how powerful it can be for God and his kingdom. For our hearts. It is devastating to him.” (p. 198)

Tell us about the “resistance” you are encountering. What’s the Lord telling you about how to overcome it?
