Resources

• Redeemer City-to-City: A stack of great resources for church-planters and leaders from Tim Keller's Redeemer City to City site. You'll need to register on the site to get full access, but the resources are free, and well worth it.  
• Christian Community Development Association: Great connecting point, resources and people who seek to inspire, train, and connect Christians who seek to bear witness to the Kingdom of God by reclaiming and restoring under-resourced communities.
• The Vineyard and the Urban Challenge: This is a talk given by Charles Park - senior pastor at the River Vineyard in New York City - at the VineyardUSA National Conference in Anaheim, California in 2007.
• Urban Expression: a mission agency in the UK that recruits, equips, deploys and networks self-financing teams pioneering creative and relevant expressions of the Christian church in under-churched areas of the inner city.
• The Metro-Urban Institute @ Pittsburgh Theological Seminary: In, 1991, the Seminary initiated the Metro-Urban Institute (MUI) to help churches address growing concerns related to urban living.  The MUI has become an important resource for those concerned with "the welfare of the city" (Jeremiah 29:7) whether or not they actually live in urban areas.
• The Urban Ministry Institute: Since 1971, an organization dedicated to ministering God's love and resourcing churches in the inner cities of America.
• Verge Network: Alan Hirsch's newest endeavour that includes lots of brain-storming and video clips from church-planters and missional leaders.
• Justice Gardens: Inviting people to "work for justice from your own backyards," Justice Gardnes is a grass-roots organization working to promote the “production, sharing, and proper use of food” in both urban and rural areas. They encourage people to work work to revitalize abandoned urban lots and make use of public space by creating Community Justice Gardens run by volunteers who earn credits toward the purchase of the harvested produce. Our goal in our Urban CSA project is to teach families in low income urban neighborhoods to grow their own food, either for their own tables, or as a micro-enterprise business where produce will be sold at local farmers markets.
• Evangelicals for Social Action: Founded by Ron Sider, ESA continues to help local communities combine evangelism and social action.
• Christians Supporting Community Organizing: CSCO seeks to enlist local congregations in the growing congregation-based community organizing movement.
• Embracing God's Global Urban Mission: Three video sessions from the Third Lausanne Congress on World Evangelism from Cape Town, South Africa.  The first in Tim Keller speaking on Contextualization.  The second video is Jose De Silva talking about Migrations.  The final video is Raineer Chu speaking on Solutions for those in poverty.
