Paul mentioned "the church that is in your house" to Philemon in this shortest letter in the Bible. Perhaps it was a group of believers who met there. Perhaps it was merely those of his family and household who believed in Jesus. So church would not in this case be a building, but a group of people. Paul intended to recognize and nurture them.
