Fellowship is a good way to be less formal and I think we do our greater work in that environment.
Cell groups are a great outreach for a larger church setting.
I'm excited about your new endeavor. I pray all goes well.

I just finished reading this book called The Glorious Church. It deals with this home church issue to a certain degree. I was very surprised to find out it wasn't about home church over traditional church as it was about the structure of the Church in general. The authors basically advocate a hybrid of home meetings and congregational meetings. They place Christ as Head of the church and then elders to act as overseers of an assembly comprised of several home groups.
