"The Bible begins in a garden and ends in a city," says Floyd McClung. "I believe that to turn our backs on the city is to turn away from God's eternal purposes of salvation and justice for His whole creation."
Floy McClung shows us why we can face the city without fear and with a sense of hope. When we see the city as a grouping of cultures and communities, we discover its more human face. And when we understand God's purposes for urban life, it will change the way we feel about the city.
This is a book for anyone prepared to be more impressed with the greatness of God than with the sin of the city. McClung argues convincingly that cities, although under siege by the enemy, are actually God's idea. Using clear scriptural principles, he urges believers not to abandon the city, but rather to learn how to transform it by the power of God.
