Purpose
OUR VISION: Every global city is flourishing spiritually and socially
The unity we are pursuing calls us to rely on the truth of God's word and the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Striving to serve the physical, social and spiritual needs of our cities by working together serves both as a witness of our faith and a response to Jesus' final prayer for his followers - to live in unity so that the world may believe. (John 17:21)
Mission statement
To catalyze leaders to spiritually & socially impact their cities through rigorous research, uniting prayer, unified local leadership, and powerful collaboration between diverse sectors.
Statement of faith
We believe the Bible to be the inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God.
We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood.
We believe in the soul saving power of His bodily resurrection and His ascension to the right hand of the Father. And we believe in His inevitable return in power and glory.
We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful people, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential. The express mandate of the church is to fulfill the Great Commission.
We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, indwelling, and enabling Christ's followers to live godly lives.
We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost - that they are saved unto the resurrection of life and that they are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
