Among the persecuted church in China and the house church network that Brother Yun is part of, they ran into a big problem with Western Teachers and Missionaries.
The westerners could only minister in the Word for about 40 minutes, maybe an hour. That was WAAAAAY too short. The Christians there go for about 2 or 3 hours listening to and discussing the Word with their teachers, then break for lunch, then go for another 2 or 3 hours...
This has actually happened in our house church before, and it was a blessing. I was exhausted and exhilarated. I have seen this among hungry disciples when I was young, tarrying in meeting through the wee hours...
I've seen it a lot, but always outside of the "normal" christianity we're fed en masse.
