We Are Citylight
It’s far too easy to live life on cruise control, forgetting that as Christians we have a unique calling on our lives. Specifically, as a church, Citylight exists to make disciples of Jesus to the glory of God. The key questions then are: what is a disciple and how do we go about making them? This four week series seeks to answer those questions and remind us of our identity.
As the Father sent the Jesus His Son, so Christians are meant to be a community that foregoes temporary comforts to send and be sent in order to expand the reach of the gospel of grace.
