participate in a city lab
We are living in a unique time in our country’s history where there is much
division where people are in need of the hope of the gospel. It’s a great time for personal
development and to thoughtfully engage with the issues in front of us.
The City Lab is a ten week learning experience that equips you to become a more resilient disciple of Jesus in this cultural moment and aims to answer the following questions:
What is the story of God you are being invited into?
What is your story and how does that integrate into God's story?
How do you practice the Ways of Jesus in all of life?
How can you become an agent of gospel renewal in your spheres of influence?
Through self discovery, community and mentorship, you are invited to engage with
like-minded peers and learn together how to Live Into the Great Story.

At present, we aim to facilitate in person labs again this August. Depending on the size of group and where people are coming from, venue locations will be determined to make participation as easy as possible (which may still involve virtual discussions).

“The city lab is focused discipleship with an eye for young professionals. The theologically rich discussions paired with practical action steps and experiments were important in bringing about the transformation I needed in order to become more engaged in my community and workplace for Christ. The life on life mentoring style moved me forward in my desire to become more involved in the great commission in my city.”
Josiah, Los Angeles (27) |

"This lab helped me draw similarities between what scripture has to say about God's mission and my day to day life. Things that are easily mistaken as insignificant have more meaning since God can work in even the most mundane tasks/areas of my day."
Ajia, Oceanside (29) |

"Through this experience, I’ve become more intentional about meeting others in my everyday circles, acknowledging them as being made in God’s
image, and seeing the beauty in people." Caleb, San Diego (27) |
"City Lab gave me a bigger heart for my city. I was also able to reflect on my Vietnamese American identity, see how my story is connected to the bigger story God is writing in my own community in Houston. It was eye opening to see how Jesus engaged as a peacemaker and how to seek out shalom in my own city."
Mimi, Houston (23)

The cost to participate in the City Lab allows us to scholarship
those needing financial assistance, cover operational costs, and fund gospel renewal initiatives. The value of the city lab is over $350, however, we don't want cost to be a barrier.
Please let us know the amount of scholarship needed.
