City Life

Is God more present in the city or in the countryside? Thinking about some of the retreat centres and conference centres I know it would be easy to believe that to encounter God we need to leave the city and get out into the countryside - for there, in the peace and quiet, amongst the beauty of nature we are able to encounter God. Life is just too noisy and manic in the city - it's no surprise that God has moved out! But God is God in the city, as well as in the countryside. God is doing great things in our cities, and He will do even greater things yet.




Now listen to Chris Tomlin talking about the song, 'God of this city'.
