Paris. Nairobi. Tokyo. Chicago. For the first time in history, over half of the world’s population lives in cities, and yet evangelicals make up only 2% of many major urban populations. In this “urban manifesto,” pastor and author Jon Dennis argues that the greatest need of our day is for the transformative news of the gospel to enliven the cities of the world. Dennis powerfully highlights God’s special love for cities, exploring important issues related to city-dwelling and offering real-world advice for reaching urbanites. With Christ-exalting, biblically based insights, this book serves as a rallying cry for a new generation of Christians who are passionate about seeing the kingdom of God take root and flourish in some of the darkest, yet most strategic, places on earth.
