CityReaching in Sacramento has been going on for many years. Many in the community have been building on the broad shoulders of those many before us. And the exciting part of the Kingdom of God, is God is always doing something NEW! He creates new wineskins and pours in new wine. The key to stay being a new wine skin is before God keeping a humble, pliable, flexible and sensitive heart to the Spirit and His revealing new things and the wisdom and discernment to know what and how to do what God wants done . . . today, in this season. I want to live through them all! Don't you?

CityReaching is maturing to new levels of understanding that is stretching our imagination because our God is SO BIG! God wants to reach continents, countries and cities! And He's doing it through new technology, new use and partnering with the technology into relationships not thought of before. How exciting!!

COPIED FROM MAIN CITYREACHING HOME under - I - author, Neil Cox ( Great explanation about CityReaching! )

This wiki is for collaboratively growing the global cityreaching movement... together... city by city... neighborhood by neighborhood. In other words, it's the Great Commission... working together to ensure every man, woman and child in our communities get the opportunity to know & enjoy Jesus Christ as Lord. Loving our neighbors as ourselves includes inviting them to enjoy being part of His family/team. The family of God serves as 'salt & light' to our communities... collectively & concertedly being participating agents of His justice & mercy in the here & now. This wiki expedites connecting, discovering & sharing what each of our cityreaching movements look like (at their current status). We trust it will raise the big questions... and attempt to answer them... and press some of those answers into action.

Some of the big questions...

What does CityReaching look like in YOUR city? Your neighborhood? Who's really working together? How effective is the Great Commission in your community? What's your cityreaching plan? How can we know whether we're really DOING IT or not? How can we measure progress? How can we encourage one another along the way, and hold each other accountable for progress? continue to 'Big Questions'

The Christian Life and Character of the Civil Institutions of the United States

"I was debating an ACLU attorney at Christmas on an NPR station. I pulled out a Xerox copy of The Christian Life and Character of the Civil Institutions of the United States and said to her: "Until you answer this book, the ACLU can't make a case against America's Christian founding." She was shocked when she saw it. She asked where I had gotten it. The only thing that gave her relief was the fact that the book was not in print. BUT NOW IT IS!

"Be afraid ACLU. Be very afraid. Benjamin F. Morris packs The Christian Life and Character with page after page of original source material making the case that America was founded as a Christian nation. The evidence is unanswerable and irrefutable. This 1000-page book will astound you and send enemies of Christianity into shock." Hardback, 1060 pages
