    [synopsis] => The Bible is clear about God's love for the city, be it Babylon,Nineveh, or Jerusalem. Thousands of years later, His lovehasn't changed-and God still calls His people to speak truth to

 the cities of the world.



 In City Changers, Alan Platt shows how we need to be in the classrooms, boardrooms, and marketplaces of our communities, engaged with society and ready to offer hope to the broken. Alan gives practical answers and inspiration for influencing the spiritual, social, and cultural dimensions of where we live, as he tells his remarkable story of watching God's church deeply affect cities around the world.



 Generations of changed lives tell us that Christianity can radically transform society, beginning with spiritual transformation in the lives of individual people. As Alan writes, the church is called

 as a missional presence to instill the character and presence of Christ into the core of the community. International Christian leader Alan Platt shows readers how to become effective city changers as they engage with the classrooms, boardrooms, and marketplaces of their cities. Alan Platt is founder of Doxa Deo Churches, which currently serve 30,000 people across South Africa, the United Kingdom, Germany, and New Zealand. He is leader of the City Changers Movement and lead architect of the Church United program in South Florida. Alan and his wife, Leana, have two adult children and reside in Florida. Introduction11
