What is the Micro Ministry Movement?

If you've never heard of the Micro Ministry movement you're not alone. Until now I had never heard of it either. That's because it's starting right now. Actually it started a long time ago by Jesus.

Luke 10:1 After these things the Lord appointed seventy others also, and sent them two by two before His face into every city and place where He Himself was about to go.

I believe that this is significant because He had 70 people total but chose to send them out in twos. I don't believe that this means we can only do ministry or serve in pairs, but I do believe it's an principle that we have to consider. 

Why the micro ministry movement? I'll start off with a confession. I'm tired of the thinking that big numbers of people are what determines ministry or service projects success. In fact why do we even use the word success in this context? The word success by it's very nature requires implies a measurement that most likely leads to a number.  

Isn't the very idea of ministry and service about love and obedience?  Both very difficult to measure but very easy to know.  Did I do this because I love Jesus and others? Did I do this because Jesus sent me to do it?  If I can answer yes to both of those questions then I have been faithful, even if not 'successful.'

I'm not making excuses for a lack of preparation or silliness.  I believe that we should be good stewards and not waste our efforts, resources, or other people's time. But, when the drive for 'more': more people and more resources gets in the way of actually going and doing then something is out of order. 

What would micro ministry look like? Whereever Jesus stirs the hearts 2 or 3 people (or a small number in general) through the Holy Spirit I believe the church should let them do it instead of trying to orgainze it and grow it.
