From www.ic.org/directory/jesus-christians/:
We have been operating as a community for more than 25 years. Our community grew out of an experiment with literal obedience to the teachings of Jesus. Although we don't fit into any neat category, we have often been referred to as Christian anarchists, and we practice what is considered to part of the gift economy. We keenly support much that Leo Tolstoy wrote about the "kingdom of heaven", and there is a strong resonance with early Quaker principles.
Because we believe that attitudes toward money are fundamental in all human relationships, "living in community" for us includes "common ownership". No member of our community works for money, and we generally live a very frugal lifestyle. We believe in the philosophy of doing all that we do for love and without a profit motive. Many of our members are freegans, living largely off things that the rest of society throws away.
We are a mobile community, regularly on the move to preach the Word and nourish the Kingdom of God wherever, and in whomever, we find it.
