OUR MISSION

Magnify Jesus by multiplying

disciples and churches.

OUR
VISION

To see God grow a movement of disciples multiplying disciples in their networks, the next generation, new cities, & the nations.

NETWORKS

It starts with our networks. The people that are close to us but far from God. This could be your neighbor, your co-worker or someone you meet at a local coffee shop. We want to create more disciples in our networks!

​

NEXT GENERATION

We want to invite every generation to invest in the next generation. Whether you're a mom pouring into a college student or a high schooler pouring into kids on a Sunday morning, disciples are being made.​
 

NEW CITIES

Our metric for success isn't seating capacity, it's sending capacity. We want to invest into those who will go out and continue to make disciples in new cities. That could be via a church plant OR utilizing a job in a new location.

NATIONS

There's a heartbreaking need for the Gospel in unreached people groups all over the world, we're talking billions who haven't heard the name of Jesus! As a church we respond to the Gospel with a missional heart to develop and deploy!

GATHER

THE GATHERING ROOM

Just as Christians have been doing for 2,000 years, we gather together every Sunday to celebrate Jesus, delight in his Word, worship Him through singing, remember His sacrifice through communion, rejoice in baptisms & stories of His grace.

SCATTER

LIVING ROOMS

City Groups are the heart of Citylight. They are not an optional program, they are a group of believers who are growing in the Gospel, listening to the Scriptures, connecting as family, and serving a specific neighborhood or network in the city.

EQUIP

CLASSROOMS

We don't want to just be a church that sends, we want to be a church known for sending well — for raising up and equipping emotionally and spiritually healthy leaders, on fire for the Gospel with the training to effectively share it with others.

OUR VALUES

DOWN // GOSPEL

1 CORINTHIANS 15:1-4

The Gospel is the good news that God saves sinners through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. God isn't waiting for us to claw our way up to Him, He has come DOWN to us. Jesus has done for us what we never could do ourselves. This value is THE value that seeps into everything we do. It's of first importance as a church.

IN // FAMILY

JOHN 13:35

The church isn't a place, but a people. Not just a weekly assembly, but a humble, joyful community committed to loving each other and doing life together. Our primary expression of being IN community is City Groups —  we connect to hear, respond to & share  the gospel. We will never settle for being a weekly gathering for people to attend

UP // DEVOTION

ROMANS 8:29

Through the power of the Gospel & work of the Spirit, we are progressively molded into becoming more like Jesus. This doesn't mean our aim is simply to be better Christians, trying to cleaning our lives — it means as we gaze UP at Jesus, through His Word, the trappings of sin lose their addictive appeal & we realize Jesus is better.

OUT // MISSION

MATTHEW 5:14

Missions isn't just a ministry within the church, but the very orientation of our entire church. The same gospel that transforms us within also compels us OUT on mission. We exist as a church to be “a city on a hill” and “the light of the world.” We do this by  sharing the Gospel with our networks, the next generation, new cities & the nations!
