I don’t know if you’ve been reading and/or enjoying these, but I hope you’ll humour me for a while longer! I’ve been finding it helpful to get my thoughts into words and to invite conversation.

I also have a confession to make: I’m a closet megalomaniac. (though perhaps not so closet-bound now!) I have sizeable hopes for the Christian church in Adelaide. I would love for Adelaide to be called ‘the city of churches’ without people having to ask ‘why?’ I believe that this would delight God and bring him glory – so that’s what I’m going to do. Perhaps you want to get on board and join me. or just look on, or offer advice or criticism…I’ll take any or all.

So this series is an attempt to put  my thoughts out there on what it looks like to win a city and how I’d do it in Adelaide.

Here’s a roadmap (and will be the table of contents from now on):

• Winning a city – Sydney
• Losing a city – Adelaide
• Praying for the city (esp. ‘harvesters’)
• What is it with the city? (‘the City’ as the Bible sees it)
• What is it with the church? (theological, not structural problems)
• Fancy statistics
• Denominations
• Para-church
• This generation
• …?
