Loving cities because God loves cities

Co-founded by Timothy Keller (1950-2023) We equip leaders to start churches in cities around the world.

Our hope is to see gospel renewal everywhere there are people.

Tim Keller’s words challenge us to think beyond the growth of any one church.

A kingdom-minded approach to church planting asks a bigger question: are we only focused on strengthening our own institution, or are we invested in the flourishing of the wider Church and the city as a whole?

Healthy gospel movements grow when churches are willing to collaborate, support new leaders, and make room for new communities of faith to take root.

Why do we plant churches?

Because church planting is about more than starting something new. It’s about responding faithfully to Scripture, living out the Great Commission, strengthening the wider body of Christ, and thinking beyond any one church toward the growth of God’s kingdom.

These four reasons help ground the work in something deeper: a shared commitment to seeing healthy churches take root, grow, and serve their communities faithfully.

These are Jesus' final words before he ascends to heaven. This “Great Commission” is at the core of City to City's work. It's why church planting is central to who we are. It's why cities are central to what we do.

In order to make disciples of all nations, there must be churches everywhere there are people. And most people live in a city.

The Great Commission is increasingly an urban—and urgent—call.

City to City exists to multiply churches and Christian leaders committed to a shared vision for
gospel movements in the great cities of the world.

We often summarize our core commitments under these five words: Gospel. Culture. City. Mission. Movement.

Cities are changing quickly, and the questions facing church planters and ministry leaders are changing with them.

Season 2 of the City to City Podcast is about creating space for those conversations, bringing together voices from across our global network to reflect on what’s emerging in cities and what it means for church planting, evangelism, and mission.

This season, expect new voices, new resources, and more conversations designed to help us think thoughtfully about the work ahead.

Understanding a city takes more than noticing what’s happening on the surface.

For churches and church planters, cultural analysis means paying attention to the bigger picture, the long-term shifts, the local context, and the lived experiences of the people we’re called to serve.

A thoughtful approach helps us listen more carefully, respond more wisely, and engage our communities with greater clarity.

Season 2 of the City to City Podcast is here!

We’re kicking things off by looking back at some of the conversations that stayed with us from Season 1, including what it means to build movements that are not just active, but deeply rooted in their communities.

Contextualization isn’t about changing the message. It’s about understanding the people, questions, and culture around us well enough to communicate the gospel clearly.

Tim Keller’s words are a helpful reminder that faithful ministry requires both conviction and attentiveness. We bring the Bible’s answers into the real questions people are asking, in ways they can actually understand and engage with.

What does thoughtful contextualization look like in your city or community?

Not every cultural change is a change in climate.

Some things are long-term shifts. Others are seasonal. Some are simply today’s weather. And even then, the way those conditions are experienced can look completely different from one neighborhood or person to the next.

That distinction matters for churches seeking to understand and serve their cities well.

In his latest Substack reflection, Brandon O’Brien offers a framework for looking at culture through five lenses: climate, season, weather, place, and population.

It’s a helpful reminder that understanding a city requires more than noticing what’s happening. We also have to ask how long it’s been happening, where it’s happening, and who is experiencing it.

Which of these five lenses do you think churches are most likely to overlook?

The conditions around us matter. Culture shifts, cities change, people respond differently, and what faithful presence looks like in one place may not look exactly the same somewhere else.

In our latest Substack, we explore a helpful way of thinking about culture through the lens of climate, season, weather, place, and population, and what that means for churches seeking to serve their communities well.
