The Impact

Every dollar invested in church planting has a ripple effect that sustains a church, impacts individuals and influences communities to continue to invest in church planting.

CTC was established with the goal of working alongside local city leaders in global cities so they could deliver contextualized content, training, coaching and financial resources to fuel movements of the gospel in their regions. Today we are engaged in more than 150 cities, and in partnership with our regional affiliates, have helped start 2,156 churches and coached, trained and reached 159,037 leaders.

 

How It Works

God calls us to be for the city, to love the city and to serve the city. Cities are growing exponentially, and CTC’s vision is to see the gospel of Jesus Christ transform lives and cities. We prayerfully help leaders start and strengthen churches to advance the gospel together in their city.

 

How we help leaders advance the gospel in their cities

 
 

CHURCH PLANTERS

We recruit, assess, train and resource leaders to start churches in cities.

ONGOING MOVEMENT

The gospel moves through the city, and the cycle continues as others are called to lead in loving their city and seeing it renewed by the gospel.

HEARTS, CHURCHES & CITIES RENEWED

As the Holy Spirit changes individuals and church communities, the city and its people flourish.

NEW & EXISTING CHURCHES

Once a church is launched, we provide further training and coaching to support sustainability, and we connect these churches to other churches and ministries. 


CHURCH NETWORKS

We build new and support existing networks that start more churches and connect with other ministries, resulting in an ecosystem working together in their community.


Collective ImpaCT

We invest in developing networks and churches in cities like London, Johannesburg and Kuala Lumpur, empowering them to more significantly impact other cities in the region.

Why Cities?

Cities are where the gospel need is and where the gospel need will be. Currently, the world is 50% urban. By 2050, 68% of the human race will work, worship, play, raise families and live in a city.

We work to connect the church to the neighborhood, connect the neighborhood to the community and connect the community to the city. Only then can the gospel reach and impact an entire city.

 

Building Sustainable Networks

We don’t just teach leaders how to plant churches. We equip them with the skills, resources and connections they need to build sustainable gospel centered leaders and ministries who benefit their city by advancing the gospel, around the world. Your support enabled us to equip leaders in the Asia Pacific to plant 44 churches in 2017 alone.
