What is the Mission America Coalition?

Since its inception, leaders from 81 denominations, over 350 ministries and dozens of ministry networks have been involved in the Coalition. Our Mission Statement is: "The Whole Church taking the Whole Gospel to the Whole Nation - and to the World!”
What is Cityreaching? Cityreaching simply is the activity of individual Christians, congregations and servant ministries collaborating under the leadership of the Holy Spirit, serving together in their cities andcommunities to demonstrate and declare the message of Jesus Christ through a lifestyle practice of praying-caring-sharing that "reaches" or "transforms" every man, woman and young person and sector of society.
What is the biblical foundation for Cityreaching? A case study of Acts 13-19 will show that "reaching the city-dwellers" with the gospel would and could eventually mean that nations would be reached with the gospel and the world! There were several continents represented by the citizens of Antioch (Asia, Africa, Europe, etc.) and of course the same was ever so true for the city of Rome. Paul understood that if "all roads led to Rome, then all roads also led away from Rome. If the church could reach every person in Rome with the transforming power of the gospel of Jesus Christ (by planting local churches), then from the City the nations would be reached with God's good news: God loves the world and wants each person and every place to be blessed.

How is Cityreaching a new paradigm for evangelism? Cityreaching is not so much a new paradigm as it is a renewed focus on what the early church did to expand the gospel to the whole world by reaching the world-ethnic groups that came to urban centers and went out from urban centers to their respective countries. The Apostle Paul understood that reaching individuals from different nations in a city context would result in those individuals being used of the Holy Spirit to reach their cities or communities in their home nation when they returned.
