About eMergingCity

eMergingCity is…

  • a conversation among people seeking to follow Jesus in our urban context (Denver and adjacent neighborhoods, with plenty of connections elsewhere)
  • committed to justice and shalom (peace, wholeness) for people "on the margins" of society
  • a place to engage with "big ideas" and larger forces that impact our urban situation
  • a celebration of urban life!

The name eMergingCity reflects our active anticipation of the coming of the City of God, a rich image of faith in the Christian tradition.

Our tagline, “faith – action – imagination,” expresses a vision of faith that not only involves personal struggle and growth, but also creatively engages our society.

eMergingCity is sponsored by Mile High Ministries, a Denver-based nonprofit organization that invites and equips people from all walks of life to join God's transforming work on the margins of our community. Together, we address practical needs of people struggling with poverty, raise awareness of local social justice issues, and cultivate servant leaders for an urbanizing world.
