"When you begin to think outside the box, you often become some other "leaders" lousy follower. That usually costs something" (Andy Rayner)

"Our guardian angels are bored." (Mike Foster)

It's where I feel I'm at these days. “In the second half of life, it is good just to be a part of the general dance. We do not have to stand out, make defining moves, or be better than anyone else on the dance floor. Life is more participatory than assertive, and there is no need for strong or further self-definition” (Falling Upward. Richard Rohr.120).

House Churches And Others

Yep, meeting in a house can change little. 
"Those burned by conventional church will find no solace here. The authors believe that house churches started by disgruntled Christians fed up with the establishment are doomed. Only those at peace with the value of all types of church and leadership will be able to grow a healthy house church or house church network.
More importantly, to avoid the ugly pitfalls of ingrown, exclusivist house churches, McClung and Kreider insist house churches must be birthed with outreach firmly at the forefront of ministry, above and beyond the fellowship of believers."
