God is rapidly urbanizing the world. For the first time in human history, more people live in cities than in rural areas. Followers of Jesus must learn how to navigate through the complexities of urban life. This blog documents my urban adventures both in Pittsburgh and in cities around the world. This is my personal blog, and my views may not necessarily reflect the views of North Way Christian Community, Bakke Graduate University, or any other organizations.

A Great Start to the Week
This week is off to a great start. Over 200 adults and 30 children gathered for worship at North Way East End on Sunday. More than statistics, these followers of Jesus are growing in relationship with Jesus, in relationship with one another in community, and in relationships with people outside the walls of the church throughout the East End of the city. As a pastor, it is so exciting to be a part of something incredible that God is doing. We are a part of God's mission to reach the city, and God deserves all of the glory for the life changing ministry that is taking place. We are reaching the city. The word is getting out that we are a group of followers of Jesus Christ that are serious about living out God's mission across cultural, racial, socioeconomic, and neighborhood boundaries. God is calling us forth into his profound plans to tranform hearts and minds for the sake of advancing the kingdom of God. God is doing an amazing work in the East End of Pittsburgh.
