Together

we are building flourishing communities

We live in a culture of growing division, decline, and despair.

Arkansas has one of the highest divorce rates in the nation.

Less than half of our kids can read at grade level.

Our state ranks below the national average in 11 of 16 child well-being indicators.

Violent crime rates are double the national average.

But there is hope.

Historically, the Church has been the greatest force for good in the world, establishing hospitals, orphanages, public education, the Red Cross, and the Geneva Convention.

It led the way in prison reform, the abolition of slavery, and the Civil Rights Movement.

What the Church accomplished in the past is still possible today.

A united and thriving Church is the greatest hope for our cities and the world.

Also, seek the peace and prosperity of the city to which I have carried you into exile. Pray to the LORD for it, because if it prospers, you too will prosper.

Jeremiah 29:7

Inspired by these words by the prophet Jeremiah, churches are coming together to pray for and seek a flourishing city.

Together we can build a flourishing community!

In a culture where divisiveness is rampant, it was awe-inspiring to witness churches that don’t look alike come together in discipling, equipping, and commissioning leaders. What God started through this leadership initiative with CityChurch Network is exactly what Central Arkansas needs to expand the kingdom into broken and unengaged areas.
