The city is more important than ever. Right now, more people live in cities than at any other time in human history. Never before has the majority of the world’s population been an urban population.
Cities have always played a central role in human history.
Cities have long stood as powerful places of cultural development, influence, and invention—offering hope, refuge, and new beginnings. But never before have cities been as populated, powerful, and important as they are today.
The world is changing. Our world is experiencing the largest movement of urban growth in history. Our world is now predominantly urban, and there’s no going back. This new reality, this new world, presents a historic opportunity for Christians.
